About: Took care of dogs for 5 years, owned a dog as well. Can take your dog for a run as running for me is a lifestyle. Feeding, bathing, playing, administering medicine if necessary I work from home, love staying active by playing, running or walking with dogs. Will monitor the animals to keep them out of trouble and keep them happy! I have a fenced yard, a single home, will take dogs on walks on a leash, without the leash in the backyard. Make sure the surrounding areas are safe for the animals.

“Cheryl was a dream and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my fur children were being well taken care of. I appreciated the wonderful report card narratives and pictures. My cats even came out to visit with Cheryl when she stopped to give cuddles to the pups.”


About: I’ve taken care of two pups on my own and have supported my friend's and family’s dogs when needed. Both of my pups could be seen going on adventures to find the best treats and best trails for walks. In my care I always give pups the love and attention they are looking for. My pups very much missed me when I was gone. Therefore I understand the discomfort some pups experience when their humans are away. My goal as a pet sitter is to help alleviate distress a pup may experience when their humans are away. I currently have open availability until my partner and I move. I am looking to support pups in any way I can until the move. When bringing any pup into my home I strive to create normalcy for the pup in any way I can. What a pups routine and expectations will be will depend on their humans preference. In my home pups are welcomed to become comfortable anywhere and is allowed to play at any hour. However if their human as certain expectations I can abide by those rules as well.

“She’s the best listened well and loved my pup like her own ! Would use again”


“Megan is the best sitter we have had she takes the time to get to know our dogs and loves them like her own. Winston and Nala love when Megan gets to visit them”

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 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.

“Karissa is absolutely wonderful! We have had her watch our 4 kids (2 dogs and 2 cats) multiple times while we were on vacation. They are always excited to see her. When she stays at our house she left everything clean and picked up. I highly recommend her”


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.

“Arica is such an amazing pet sitter!! I appreciate the thorough details of her visits and she's so sweet with my boys! I come home to happy and healthy pets, and even my timid boy is even getting more comfortable with her. She understands their body language and keeps them as comfortable as possible with their mom being away. She's now my go to sitter when I need one!”


About: Hi! I’m Nicole and I live in the Fargo area. I grew up having a dog and love to be around animals! I have loved pet sitting and dog walking for people in the past! I am very available during the summer and looking for opportunities to fill my time with some amazing pets! I am also available after 3ish during the school year! I currently live in an apartment and am unable to have pets so I look forward to spending time loving on all the dogs and cats possible!

About: I have had a dog as long as I can remember. I have dog sat for multiple family friends with different breeds. I am good at taking dogs on walks, playing with them, feeding them, and more. I can adapt to different temperaments. I have also taken care of a 14 year old dog that had a very specific schedule and needed constant supervision to help keep away from potty accidents and very specific feeding instructions. I work full time but don't start until evening. I am able to sit with your pups more most of the day. I already love to sit around with my old lady dog. I can tell when she's in a mood to play so we play until she is done and ready to go take some more naps. I would love to play with your dogs as well! I will only watch your dogs in your own homes. I can follow any instructions you want. I can bring a ball with me but you will need to provide other toys if desired. I like to be in the same room so I can see them to make sure they aren't doing something they shouldn't be.

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’ve had a dog since I was 8 years old, and since then have taken care of or dogsat dogs ranging in age from brand new puppy to senior dogs 12 years +. I often pet sit for family friends and they always ask me to come back. I make sure to look for and meet the needs of every pet that I’ve taken care of, with massages, exercise, and most recently helping my mom train her now 1 year old puppy through potty training and up. I’m currently working Monday-Thursday in a flexible position, so while weekends are my forte, I would certainly be able to check on your pets a few times during the weekday if that’s needed. I prefer to stick to the routine and care level that your pet is used to- I feed them the same amount at the same times as their owners, and try to stick to a similar schedule of playing and walking (although, if allowed, I’m always open to a bit more play or snuggle time!)
