About: I've been around and taken care of many dogs since I was a kid! As an adult, I've had many friends, family members, and neighbors trust me to care for their pets! Right now, I work a seasonal job and I am available on Wednesday and Thursday. I'm also available on many evenings opposite those days, as well as some mornings. In My Home: Pets are treated like family! I provide a safe, cozy, and low-stress environment with lots of love, playtime, and attention. Walks are tailored to your dog’s energy level, and I stick to their routine as closely as possible—including feeding, meds, and bedtime preferences. I also offer quiet spaces for pets who need a little extra comfort or downtime. In Your Home: I respect your home and your pet’s routine. I keep things tidy and make sure your pet feels safe and loved in their own space. I stick to feeding schedules, provide enrichment, and make sure they get plenty of exercise, affection, and clean-up. I can also send regular updates so you know your pet is happy and doing great while you're away.

About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I lived in the country so we had lots of pets growing up. I would give them food and water everyday. I have a cat of my own. If I could, I would have a lot more animals but I live in an apartment so I can't! I thought doing Rover would allow me to watch pets while still living in an apartment. I will ensure to give my full attention to your pets. I do have a cat but she loves animals and will do no harm.

“Ivie is the best! My cat warmed up to her right away! She even let Ivie pick her up and she doesn’t let anyone pick her up besides me! That’s a big deal in the world of cats! Ivies a true cat lover!”


About: I’ve been around animals my whole life — from cuddly cats to playful dogs. I have experience caring for both energetic puppies and sweet senior pets who need a little extra attention and patience. What sets me apart is how much I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s personality. I treat every animal like they’re my own — with love, safety, and lots of affection. Caring for animals has always been a meaningful part of my life. I used to care for my own pet every day, and after their passing, I realized how much comfort and purpose that daily routine brought me. That’s why pet care isn’t just a job for me — it’s something that helps me heal and feel connected again. Now, I’m happy to include pet care in my weekly routine as both a responsibility and a form of gentle therapy. I give each pet my full attention, whether it’s feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company. Your pet will be treated with love, patience, and genuine care — just like I treated my own When I care for pets, safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether I’m in your home or mine, I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where your furry friend can feel safe and relaxed. I always follow your instructions closely — from feeding routines to favorite toys or habits — and I respect your home just like I respect your pet. I take time to build trust with each animal, move at their pace, and make sure they feel comfortable, especially if they’re shy or anxious. If your pet stays in my home, I make sure the space is quiet, safe, and free of hazards. If I’m coming to your place, I treat it with care and make sure your pet gets the love and attention they’re used to.

About: I am a professional who is looking for a side job. I have grown up around animals my whole life. I currently own one horse and a cat, who I could not live without. Growing up, I always grew up with at least one dog in our house. Most of the times, our dogs were rescues. One of my dogs growing up was afraid of most people so I have a ton of experience dealing with shy dogs. I have no problem picking up poop or taking care of multiple dogs. I love taking dogs for walks. Let me know if you believe I can help out when you or your family needs a vacation. I am also available to do drop ins and dog walks. Please let me know if you need me. I can be notified on short notice as well!! I currently work full time in a director role at a non profit. I am looking to help care for pets in the Bismarck/Mandan area. I can house sit for you, stop by for play/walk time, snuggle with your pet. Whatever you need from the comfort of your pet’s home!

About: I've been around animals my whole life! I have a strong bond and relationships towards animals I meet :) I have had a few of my own dogs and currently have one who is 4 years old! I also have a cat who is 6 years old. I do work full-time Monday-Friday but I do get to take a lunch break and come home if needed! I'm home during weeknights and weekends. I don't have a fenced yard but I will make sure to use a leash when taking your pet outside to go potty. I have a dog that can keep your dog company or I can keep them separated if that is preferred!

About: I’ve sat many different dog breeds and personalities in the past. I understand how to make the dogs comfortable with me. I love dogs to the moon and back. The most dogs I’ve sat at one home was three. This is definitely not my limiting number, infact it was the most memorable because I had an absolute blast. I have my own two dogs, whom I love very much. Lots of playing, walks, kisses and cuddles. We share food and food scraps all the time. Full-time love my little babies. I respect the limits of where the dogs can and can not go. My dogs are not allowed on our leather couches nor my parents bed. Of course, my puppies can always find a spot next to me if they’d like. I understand if you have limits of pets in certain rooms or certain furniture items. I understand rough housing is rarely allowed and should always be taken outside to enjoy that quality moment together.

“Marin was a great sitter! Our dogs absolutely love her!! We were able to enjoy our time away from home worry free and received the best updates with photos of all the fun they were having together.”


About: Hello my names is Michaela and I’m an Animal Science major at Iowa State that loves animals and has lots of love to give your furry friends! I have experience caring for all kinds of animals, all shapes and sizes. I worked a a animal shelter for a while and nothing scares me! I miss my animals at home and it would be amazing to have a companion for the night! I will always treat you and your animals with the lost respect because I know they are a giant part of everyone’s daily life and family. Thank you for trusting me with them and I hope I can offer you a good experience and potentially have your pets in my care again! Thank you so much!

About: I've always had a special bond with animals and I've taken care of dogs and cats of every kind for over 11 years. Neighbors, friends and family have trusted me to treat their furry family member with the best of care when they can't be there. Pets love me too! I'm currently working part-time at home, so I'll have plenty of time to play and care for your pets! I'm available during the week after 2pm with special accommodations for those traveling during the week with advance notice and also on the weekends. My home is safe, secure, quiet and peaceful so your pets can enjoy the tranquility while you're away! There will be plenty of playtime, outside time and rest.

About: I’ve had years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. Confident in handling walks! This is a side hustle to help pay for my college fund, and I’m also working with remote jobs so I have a lot of free time. When I care for pets in their own home, I stick closely to their regular routines to help them feel safe and relaxed. I follow detailed instructions for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and bedtime routines. I also keep the home clean and tidy, give regular updates with photos/videos, and make sure your pet gets lots of attention and comfort while you’re away. I treat your space with the same respect I would my own.
