Isaac is very easy to communicate with! He did everything we asked of him and our beautiful husky was well taken care of. We really appreciated him helping us during our stay in Fargo!

About: I have been around dogs for as long as I can remember and I wouldn't have it any other way. My love for dogs is what led me to join my county's 4H dog project in which I had to train my dog in obedience, agility, showmanship, among other things. I was in the dog project from 3rd grade until my senior year and plan on completing the training through Rover as well! I am currently in school and will be completing an internship now until June 12th so my schedule will be all over the place for a bit. However, after June I should be fairly available during the week! My caring for your pet would have to take place in your home, as I currently live in an apartment with my roommate and her dog. I am more than willing to make trips to do what you need me to if I am available!

Kathryn did a great job with Pookie and Pumpkin. She shared updates and pictures. I feel she is very trustworthy. She took extensive notes during our meet and greet visit. She followed all of my instructions.

Elle gave us such peace of mind by providing feeding visits for our shy kitty, Layla. We had assured Elle that she would not see our kitty but she stayed around quietly and was finally able to lay eyes on her. We were so pleased with Elle’s care.

About: I grew up on a small ranch in Texas surrounded by all kinds of animals, from dogs & cats to horses & cattle. Over the past few years, my family has bred and raised several litters of golden retriever puppies. This gave me even more experience with raising & training dogs, and led to the adoption of my own dog Sam. I also have experience babysitting dogs for friends and family! I'm currently a stay-at-home wife, so I have a lot of flexibility during the week. Pet care is ideal as it allows me to work around my husbands work & class schedule, while caring for our own dog & home. I will offer consistent, kind care to your dog or cat! I love going on walks with my own dog, playing fetch, and offering lots of cuddles. I am happy to interact with your animal according to your personal comfort level, knowning that some dogs & cats may prefer more alone time than others. I will respect your animal's personal space & interact with them as a fun, dependable friend.

About: Hello! I’m Sophia, and I am currently a student at Concordia College studying Voice Performance and German! Outside of music I have a passion for plants and pets! Over the years I have taken care of the animals of my community as well as some of my own. Species include cats, dogs, birds, fish, guinea pigs, gerbils, domesticated rats, and even small children 😂. Additionally I am a seasoned houseplant parent with employment experience at a local garden center. On top of pet care I am happy to water, fertilize, diagnose, and pest treat your plants for a flexible fee! As a pet/plant sitter I am reliable, organized, punctual, communicative and adaptable. Together let’s keep your flora and fauna happy and healthy! As a student and part-time garden center employee my schedule varies quite a bit. Generally my Tuesday and Thursday mornings are free as well as weekends. I’m a great communicator and happy to find a time that works for you! I do not offer boarding for cats and dogs, but for small animals such as birds and rodents they have a home away from home with me! I live in a house with plenty of space for a habitat and can adjust lighting, temperature and ambient volume to your pet’s needs!

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 from home during the week and leave for meetings or errands occasionally but will be home to keep your pet company! Home most summer weekends and I love to be outside and go on lots of walks. I live in a pet friendly apartment and have a balcony that allows for sunbathing and relaxing! I also have a friendly dog of my own who is a little shy at first but loves to play.

Alyssa and Zachary have been my sitters for about a year now. They have loved my kitty like their own. Unfortunately I am moving out of the area so I won’t be able to use them anymore. I truly do not know how I am going to replace them- they are the only sitters I have ever trusted to take care of Delilah. You will feel comfortable leaving your pets in their care and can trust that they are in the best hands!

About: I have had a dog almost my whole life. I’ve also watched my family and friends pets while they have been away a lot through out the past 7 years! I know a lot about the different dog breeds as well, since I am considering owning a dog boarding place one day! As I am preparing for college I am very flexible. I don’t have a set schedule for any day, so I can make sure your pet is taken care of. I make each pet’s care fit their individual needs while keeping them comfortable and safe. I provide plenty of exercise through walks and playtime, but during the summer heat I schedule walks for the early morning or evening when it’s cooler. If it’s too hot outside, I focus on indoor activities and enrichment to keep pets active. I also make sure they have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a calm, caring environment throughout my visit or stay.

About: I have grown up around animals and have always adored how wonderful companions they are. I grew up taking care of family members dogs when they went on vacations, which gave me early experience with feeding, walking, and general care. I also have some experience with cats from having one when I was younger and helping care for a few friends and family members cats over the years. I am comfortable helping with basic cat care such as feeding, litter box cleaning, and spending time with them. I have my own dog, Hadley, an 8 year old golden retriever. She is very spunky, sometimes a troublemaker, but very sweet. She loves walks and I have walked her for years and really enjoy doing so. Caring for her has helped me build strong experience with daily routines and understanding a dog’s needs. Within the past year, I started working at a shelter where I take care of dogs, including some with aggression and fear issues due to neglect and other reasons. I feed them, walk them, clean up after them, play with them, and give them love and attention while they wait to be adopted. That experience has taught me how to be around different types of dogs, adapt to their needs, and make sure our furry friends are always loved and cared for. I take pride in being reliable, attentive, and patient when caring for animals. I always treat pets as if they were my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I look forward to the opportunity to help take care of your pets and give them the attention and care they deserve. As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows pet care to fit easily into my daily and weekly routine. I am available most weekdays, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings, depending on my class schedule. I am also available on weekends and am happy to take on weekend bookings with advance notice. I am reliable with time management and make sure to plan ahead around my classes and other commitments so I can consistently show up on time and give each pet the attention and care they need. Overall, my flexible college schedule allows me to be dependable and available for pet care while still balancing my school and other responsibilities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and normal routine. I make sure to follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and any specific care needs for each pet. For home sitting, I focus on keeping pets calm and comfortable in their own environment, making sure they get consistent attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. For drop-in visits, I make sure all essential needs are met, including feeding, bathroom breaks, cleaning up if needed, and spending time with the pet so they feel cared for and not alone. For dog walking, I make sure walks are safe, controlled, and appropriate for each dog’s energy level and behavior. I also pay close attention to each pet’s personality and comfort level, especially with animals that may be shy, anxious, or require extra patience. I have experience working with different types of dogs from my time at a shelter, which has helped me stay calm, observant, and adaptable. In addition, I respect the client’s home by keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. My goal is always to provide reliable care so pets feel safe and owners feel confident and at ease.

About: I have been pet sitting for friends and family since I was 15. I’ve watched puppies-senior age dogs and adult cats. I believe in positive reinforcement for behavior! I am working part time and have plenty of time in the morning and early afternoon to let your pup out, or get some energy out! I sometimes have availability later in the day too. I will work with whatever is best for your dog in your home! I prioritize positive reinforcement for behaviors and understand that every dog is different so they will have to learn to trust me as I learn to trust them!

About: The currently puppy dog I have is Tik tok famous! (35k+ followers). In order to have accomplished this, I have had to dedicate a lot of resources into making it happen. With what I've learned to train my dog, I am confident in caring for yours! I will be able to be your dogsitter full time. I am what you call a stay at home dog mom! Your dog will have 24/7 attention when you're with me! I live in an townhome setting, but there is plenty of space for dog love to go around! I do have a female dog so there's always room for a play date.

Taylor was fantastic—this was my first time using Rover and my request was fairly short notice, I was a bit apprehensive but in a bind. She made the entire experience seamless and put me at ease! She was responsive, communicative, and took the time to answer all my questions. She handled everything flawlessly, from administering medication to feeding everyone and keeping my fur babies entertained. I threw a lot of information at her and she nailed it! I highly recommend her and would absolutely book with her again.

Tennille provided excellent care for our Senior cat. She spent extra time with him and made sure he got some play time in. I also asked for plenty of photos and she sent us a ton! It was really reassuring to have a whole sequence of photos showing him get settled into his spot on the couch then falling asleep. You could tell he was happy! Thank you very much!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Fargo

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Fargo on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 243 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fargo. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fargo stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
