“Lucy had so much fun spending time with Melissa and her crew! Lucy was excited to see us, but pretty tired from all the time spent playing with the other pups! We would love to have Lucy stay with Melissa again in the future. Melissa also sent lots of cute pictures of Lucy, which is always a bonus!”

About: Six years of life with a large dog will teach you things no certification can. I know what it means to be fully committed to an animal — the routines, the quirks, the way a big dog takes over your couch, your schedule, and your heart. That hands-on experience is what I bring to every sit. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze into my day — it’s built into it. I work from home full-time, which means no long stretches alone for your dog and flexible walk times that adapt to their needs rather than a rigid schedule. We also have a fully fenced yard with open-door access throughout the day, so dogs can move in and out freely and get fresh air and exercise whenever they want — no waiting, no scheduling. Your dog stays in a real home environment — not a crate, not a kennel. With a fenced yard, open outdoor access throughout the day, and someone home full-time, they’ll have space to roam, play, and relax on their own schedule. I follow your feeding, medication, and routine instructions closely and send regular updates so you’re never left wondering how they’re doing.

“Amanda did an amazing job carrying for our boy! He came home so tired from all the playing and she kept me well updated even said her kids didn’t want him to come home. Will definitely use again maybe even just for a day for him to visit and let some energy out!”

About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I currently have a chiweenie named Mya and often watch my parents special needs bichon who has Addison’s. I work straight weekends as a RN. Availability is M-T with the exception of some weekends upon request or if needing to extend time. Our home has a fenced in yard and minimal stairs. Can accommodate to dogs who need crating as well! Dogs must be good around kids and get along with our dog as well.

“We highly recommend Christy as a dog sitter! She sent us regular photos and updates, took our dog on daily walks, and was more than happy to give her the medications she needed. She made the entire experience easy and stress-free for us. We felt completely comfortable knowing our dog was in such caring and capable hands. We would absolutely trust her to watch our dog again!”

“Adria was so incredibly nice to work with. She made me feel extremely at ease with leaving Koda with her. She sent pictures of Koda during her weekend stay and let me know how Koda was doing. Drop off and pick up were very easy as we had a “ get acquainted” meeting days before the time she would dog sit for me. I was impressed with Rover and Adria. Adria was also very helpful in helping me figure out the Rover process because it was my first time using the app. I would definitely recommend her for watching your fur baby.”

About: I’ve grown up around animals and can’t imagine life without them. I have two dogs—ages 5 and 1—and an 8-year-old cat who runs the house. I love getting to know each pet’s personality and making them feel safe, loved, and at home while their people are away. Whether it’s playtime with an energetic pup or keeping a senior pet comfortable, I care for every animal like they’re my own. I work full-time Monday through Friday but can come home during my lunch break if needed. I’m home most weeknights and weekends, so your pet will still get plenty of attention and care outside of work hours. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard that is perfect for secure playtime and potty breaks. I share my home with two friendly dogs and a cat, so your pet is welcome to socialize or have their own quiet space if preferred. I also have kennels and pet gates available to ensure everyone stays safe and comfortable when separation is needed. We have a toddler in the home, and I am intentional about maintaining a calm, well supervised environment to ensure all interactions are safe and positive.

Heather watched Farley again for a couple days and we are so thankful for her! It gives me so much peace knowing he’s somewhere safe, loved, and well cared for while we’re away. She always keeps us updated and treats Farley like he’s her own. You can tell she genuinely cares, and that means everything to us. We never have to worry when he’s with her. Highly recommend Heather to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and kind to watch their fur baby! 🐾💛

FAQs for Boarding - Bismarck

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Bismarck on Rover is $49.95 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 31 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Bismarck. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Every sitter has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.

Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.

If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Bismarck home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Bismarck.

Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Bismarck sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in ND ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
