“Megan was very attentive and caring to my house full of foster kittens while I was away on business. She dedicated plenty of time for play and snuggles and my cats were very relaxed and happy when I returned. She is very communicative and goes the extra mile for whatever your fur babies may need.”
About: I have taken care of my neighbors, friend, and co workers dogs when they have been busy between jobs or out of town for extended period of time. I am currently on summer break as work remotely from home and will go to campus for weekly meetings. I am available all days of the week. I can easily take animals to local parks or on doggie dates with my coworkers-worker coaches that have dogs themselves. I work with owners to maintain animals normal routine.
About: I have had dogs my whole life and I am very comfortable around them! I love to go on walks and play with pups as much as I can! I work 8-5 during the week but live less than 10 minutes away so am able to run home for mid day walks and potty breaks. Home most summer weekends and I love to be outside in the backyard and go on lots of walks. I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of room for your pup to play! I also have a friendly dog of my own who is a little shy at first but loves to play.
About: I’ve known animals for as long as I’ve known to breathe. From the time I could walk, I was playing and interacting with my family pets. From loving on our family black labs and cats growing up, volunteering at my hometowns local shelter, to tending to family and friends’ cats and dogs, animals have always been a passion of mine! I am available before 7:15 am, and after 3:30 pm. My work does not provide flexible scheduling so I do not have an extended lunch hour. I would only be able to check in on your fur baby twice a day. Weekends I am free all day, and could check in 3 times if needed I will care for animals in your home by being gentle, patient, engaging, nurturing , and playful. I will make sure they get lots of play and stimulation, love, and treats. 😋
“arica was wonderful with my old girl! kitty can be shy at first, but arica took her time for her to warm up! she was very responsive and even left photos as she did her drop ins. i would recommend her to anyone!”
About: I’ve had cats for over 6 years and due to them, I've never had a dog of my own. However, I have taken care of my friend’s dogs multiple times! I love running with dogs on walks, teaching them tricks, and showering them with love. I’m fine with puppies, however, if they need frequent bathroom breaks, during the weekdays I may not be able to visit as frequently as they might need. I’m currently a graduate student with very flexible hours! Typically I am free in the morning or afternoon most days. My weekends are usually free with a usual trip to the Saturday farmers market when it happens. I regularly take care of my cats which includes feeding them, cleaning their litter boxes, cleaning their areas, brushing them, and generally heeding their every need. I like to make enrichment toys using cardboard boxes/paper towel tubes or by teaching them tricks like spin and high five! When taking dogs out, I try to make sure to wipe their paws down with a wet paper towel prior to entering the house, especially after going in more muddy areas. I like going at the dogs pace on walks whether that be sniffing around a bunch or taking a jog around the neighborhood until they get tired!
About: I am an experienced pet care taker. I had a dog of my own for 7 years before she passed away of a heart condition. Before that my family had dogs and cats growing up. I also consistently foster animals through one of the organizations in town. I work from home and can be pretty flexible about my schedule. When I have a dog I'm usually taking them out over 2-4 hours based on age and need. While away depending on the dogs need I I have dog gates in my home, so they will be restricted to where they are in the house when i'm around and when i'm not around. My place is clean and is a decent size - it is an apartment.
About: I have years of experience working at a boarding facility, as a groomer, and as a private pet sitter. I am constantly researching and learning about dog behavior to make me a better dog owner. I am a dog nerd and still have dreams of becoming a dog trainer. I can be flexible with dog boarding at my house or drop offs for the day. Just ask for any questions! I currently work per diem and am unable to work due to my children’s various appointments during the week. Dog sitting is a job I can do while maintaining a household and it is work that I am passionate about! I truly enjoy having a bonus dog around. I love senior dogs, and their comfort is a priority for me. My current dog is also sensitive to any negative emotions, so we all try to keep things relaxed and enjoyable!
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience in caring for them at all stages. In high school, I trained my own dog in essential skills such as house training, basic commands, and reducing excessive barking. I enjoy staying active and love taking dogs on walks, ensuring they get both exercise and attention. While away at college, I miss the daily companionship of dogs and look forward to providing reliable, caring support for pets and their families. My background in training, lifelong experience, and genuine love for animals allow me to offer dependable and compassionate care. As a senior nursing student at NDSU in my final semester, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I typically finish classes around 1 p.m., leaving afternoons and evenings open for walks, playtime, or drop-in visits. My clinical rotations occur a few times a week and are scheduled well in advance, so I can easily communicate any days I’m unavailable. Weekends are usually open, and if I do have commitments, they’re known well in advance, making it easy to plan around pet care needs. I provide attentive and loving care for pets in their own home, following each pet’s routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner. I ensure their environment stays safe, clean, and comfortable, while giving plenty of attention and monitoring for any signs of concerns. My goal is to help pets feel happy, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away.
About: I have had a pet since i was 3 years old! I have had dogs, cats, rabbits, horses (just big dogs), hamsters, fish, and more! I would be willing to do walks before work if needed! I could be available between 5:30AM-7AM. I get off of work around 4, so it would need to be after that time! I am just doing dog walking for now. I love to exercise daily and being outside. This is a great opportunity to do both of these things AND get the pups out and about.

Kendra W.
“Kendra is the best dog walker I’ve ever hired. She doesn’t just stroll around the block. She makes sure my dog gets real exercise. Every time, my dog comes back happy, tired, and calm. You can tell she loves dogs and takes her job seriously. She’s responsible, reliable, and gives 100%. If you want someone who actually cares and makes the effort, Kendra is the one. She’s worth every penny.”
