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 grew up with cats and dogs, of all sizes and breeds. I have taken great care of family and friends' pets for years, whether at their home or mine. I treat them as if they are my own. Ask anyone who knows me... I'm a huge pet lover. You will never have to worry about your fur baby while you're away... he or she will be loved and taken great care of. If at my house, my family will love them up as well. I currently work part-time, a few days a week, so I'm available to take care of your fur baby/babies pretty much any time. Days I work, I'm available after 2 pm, if I'm needed at your home. If boarding at our home, my family and I work together, taking great care of your pets. We were a great team, all of us loving animals. I have a fence yard with a dog and a cat, who will keep your fur baby company. I will crate your pet, if needed. Your pet will have the freedom to roam the house, taking in all the new things. At your home, I will play and just sit and be present, if that's what's needed. I love to walk, so that won't be a problem, if your fur baby likes those too.
“Cats did fine under her care. One of my cats didn’t interact with her at all, which is her personality, she is shy around anyone but me. The other cat warmed to her and would greet her at the door. I couldn’t give five stars because the litter box was disgusting when I got home. The ammonia smell was immense and as tired as I was from my trip, I had to change it immediately. I will give better instructions for that next time.”

About: I have raised and cared for dogs from puppies to seniors. I have experience watching, grooming, bathing, and doing just about anything a dog could need. I work full time for a local news station I work late on weekends allowing for morning walks Saturday and Sunday. I am off Thursday and Friday. I can do evening walks Monday through Wednesday. I have walked dogs that are well trained and excellent ok a lease and dogs that let’s just say “need some work” I am a comfortable and attentive walker.

“Cloey was wonderful with our bunnies! She took time to learn about each of our babies and was very flexible and sweet. Our bunnies loved her - they’re normally pretty skittish and will struggle with eating when we’re away but they did really well with her!”

About: I've always had dogs in my house ever since I was a kid. Now, I work from home and am able to spend the whole day at home with my dog and cat. Our animals are super friendly and love making friends! I work from home so I have plenty of time to watch and play with you dog! I am available for a wide range of drop off and pick up times. I have a fully fenced yard and a pug that loves to make friends. We also have a 9 year old who loves dogs and has plenty of energy to keep up with them.
About: In-home care for the furry companions who make a house truly feel like home. ♥️ Leaving our pets can be hard, so I approach every visit with both the pet and the pet parent in mind. I provide calm, routine-focused care that’s never rushed — whether that’s a slow, sniff-filled walk or quiet companionship. I pay attention to the little details, keep stress low and share regular photo updates so you can see your pet comfortable, happy and well cared for. My goal is simple: peace of mind for you and a visit that feels just right for your pet. I have experience with cats, dogs and exotic pets with a variety of temperaments and medical conditions, including asthma, allergies, heart conditions and anxiety. Pet care is intentionally woven into my daily routine so I can provide reliable, unrushed visits throughout the day. I schedule a limited number of clients to ensure each pet receives focused, attentive care, and I build my day around consistent check-in times, walks and overnight stays. This flexible structure allows me to be fully present during each visit, follow established routines and provide timely updates — including photos — so pet parents always know how their pets are doing. I take a thoughtful, gentle approach to pet sitting, focusing on consistency, comfort and trust. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, relaxed and well cared for — with plenty of belly rubs and head scritches along the way.
“Shrylle did a fantastic job with my two large dogs. WE had a short meet and great between the dogs and her about a week before I required someone to stop by and feed them and take them out to potty. Both my very protective dogs took a liking to her and when it came time for her to stop by while I wasn't home, she mastered it. I received great photo updates. Shrylle is reliable and friendly.”

About: Hello, I'm Michaela! Ever since I was a child, I have had either a cat or a dog, whom I was responsible for feeding, walking, and cleaning up after. Needless to say I am a total Animal Lover. We live a fairly active lifestyle so if your pet needs to move, I'll tire them out before you pick them up. 3 of our favorite places to walk are the nature trail at McDowell Dam, the trails near Fort Lincoln - past Mandan, and the river trail behind Sertoma Park. If your dog is a social butterfly, I also enjoy going to the dog park. Anytime I care for any animal, I approach them with compassion and empathy. I pay close attention to the animal's body language and tend to their needs as they appear. I have worked with dogs and cats of all backgrounds. I am experienced in giving shots and meds. I have end of life care experience as well. Thank you for taking the time to read about me 🙂. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies soon! I work at a local Doggy Daycare/ Training Facility. If I'm working while your dog needs care, I can bring them to work with me! I have a fenced yard and two big, playful girls to keep your pup company. If it's not too hot or cold, we may take a fieldtrip to the dog park!
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom of two fur babies, and my son. I’ve spent years caring for my own dogs and regularly pet sit for family and friends. As a teacher and mom, I’m patient, reliable, and truly enjoy caring for animals.I have fostered countless dogs until they find good loving homes. I decided to offer my services to the community because I love helping pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own! I will be unavailable for bookings until May 23rd, 2026, as I finish out the school year. Starting then, I will have open availability for summer pet care! Summer Schedule (Beginning May 23rd): Monday–Friday: Available for drop-ins, walks, and daytime care Weekends: Limited availability (please book in advance) Evenings: Available for check-ins and walks I provide reliable, attentive care to make sure your pets are safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. My visits include letting pets outside for potty breaks, refilling fresh water, feeding according to your instructions, and cleaning up any messes as needed. For dog walks, I’m confident handling multiple dogs at once. I use a waist harness for added control and safety, allowing me to walk up to two large dogs hands-free, along with up to two smaller dogs at the same time. I always prioritize your pets’ safety, exercise needs, and overall well-being during every visit.
“Chloe is fantastic! As a first timer- she answered all of my questions prior to the booking. I was a little nervous about someone coming into the home but having the frequent updates, pictures, and messages from Chloe were very reassuring. My dog loves their walks 🐶 - We were very pleased with Chloe!”


“Jacob was wonderful! He came over a few days before our trip to meet the pups and they instantly loved him. Jacob sent us daily updates and photos. We will definitely be using Jacob in the future!”
About: I have a very active 3 year old bernedoodle at home. I have been taking care of her needs like walking, feeding, and potty breaks. I love going for walks and playing with any type of dog. I am not afraid of large dogs, but also love small ones! I have a very easy going schedule even though I am currently a full time student at the university of Mary and also participate on the UMary women’s soccer team. I can visit your pet between classes and practices. And can visit them at least every three hours. I am comfortable around the area of Bismarck since I grew up with family here. I am always okay with taking dogs for walks and playing outside, even in the North Dakota cold!
“Sadie is so great! She let me know exactly what my doggos were up too! (even the two new holes in the backyard - naughty dogs!) She is passionate and followed all the steps of my step by step guide! She’s awesome!”

Bismarck dog parents share their Rover experiences
It was the first time ever having the sitter come to the house for drop-ins. Zeus took to him right away but later decided to be stubborn and plant his big butt when Bradyn tried to get him back in the house. Bradyn was very patient and kept trying until he succeeded. He took very good care of our 127 lb furbaby.
