“This will as the first time leaving my puppies with a sitter. Seena did an amazing job putting our minds at ease. Her passion for taking care of pets is obvious and her updates we amazing. I'm not even sure our puppy with separation anxiety even notice we were gone! If you ever need a sitter you can be confident in leaving them with her! They will be safe, loved, and spoiled!”
“Dae took exceptional care of my dog. He agreed to a meet and greet a couple days prior to our booking so our dogs could be introduced. My dog is nervous meeting new dogs, so he graciously allowed me to hang out for about an hour while the dogs got to know each other. Great communication throughout, great oversight, and a thorough review of the stay upon pickup. Would definitely recommend! Thank you Dae”
“Meranda was so wonderful to Gunner. I felt like she treated him as her own, was super communicative and friendly. Gunner was in great hands. Thank you, Meranda!😊”
“Jaedyn was quick to respond and excellent to communicate with! My dog was so excited when we dropped her off at Jaedyn’s place and she seemed well cared for when we picked her up. I’m sure Jaedyn’s son did all of the dog-sitting ?. (I think he really tired her out! Ruthie’s been napping consistently for the last 24 hours ?) I would be happy to use Jaedyn again in the future!”
“Nikie and her family were awesome with our 2 dogs. Ella got her exercise out in the fenced yard and Tillie got to rest inside just how they prefer! We received pictures throughout their visit, which we appreciated so much. Would recommend Nikie and wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again! Thank you so much Nikie, and your husband too, for taking such good care of our pups!”
About: I became a licensed Veterinary Technician in 2014 and have 10 years experience working in general practice. I have been dog sitting since high school. I currently work Monday-Thursday 8am to 5pm and come home for lunch noon-1pm to care for my own small senior dog as well as 2 senior cats. I have a fenced in yard and a friendly 12 year old dog named Penny. Penny and guest dog will be separated if I am not home but I will have a camera I can view the guest dog as needed if I'm at work. The resident cats will not have access to the guest dog while I am away. My pets eat 4 meals a day and Penny is let outside 4-7 times a day.
About: I have been watching dogs and cats for people for the last many years and have loved everyone of them. I love when they ask me again to watch the same dogs. we get such a bond and I get very excited when I can go back to watch them again. I also have had many dogs and cats when I was younger. I am not working and have a pretty open schedule. I always have time to love them like they are mine. I am such a animal lover I have 4 cats and 1 dog that get along great with other animals. I will care for them and love them as they are mine.
“Amy is a very nice caring person. She communicates well. Took our dog for lots of walks. My dog had a good stay that would have been better is she had a secured backyard. On the other hand I did not investigate this but again she made up for this by taking him for walks. . She also gave him a nice bath.”
“Perfect dog sitter, I boarded with her last minute and my dog had a great time playing in her back yard with the other pups, flight got delayed and it wasn’t an issue, would highly recommend to anyone. Came back home and picked up a very happy and tired pup”
“Kairouan is excellent! Quick responses to questions and schedule changes on my part. Huge variety of toys and a wonderful back yard. Picture posts reassured me that my dog was doing well. We will be booking again when our travel takes us to Grand Forks or Fargo for the weekend!”
About: I've always loved animals, & have cared for dogs, cats, and many other animals since I was a kid. I have experience with kittens, puppies, nursing mothers, bottle-feeding puppies and kittens, potty-training and basic obedience training, and caring for seniors animals. In the last several years, my kids have joined me in caring for a variety of pets, from dogs and cats to reptiles and even a hedgehog. I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to make sure your pet gets the exercise and other care they need! I have a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company, a home and family environment for pet sitting or boarding, and a kennel available for use as necessary.
“Sandra did a wonderful job caring for our dogs. She made sure to introduce our dogs to her pets slowly. She sent us photos and let us know how are dogs were doing. Sandra and her husband took our dogs for a walk. Finn and Bear were calm when we picked them up. You can tell, Sandra and her husband really love her pets and provide a great environment for 4 legged visitors.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Grand Forks
Our dog Flora loved her stay her stay with Jaedyn and her son. Flora is usually a little shy and timid when she first meets hosts but immediately warmed up to the two of them. Jaedyn was a great communicator over the 8 days that Flora boarded with her. It looked like they had a great time together. Would highly recommend!
Nyree seemed to enjoy her stay with Kayla and Gabriel and their adorable dog. They seemed to take such great care of Nyree, and shared regular updates and photos. I would 100% book with them again for the peace of mind knowing Nyree is in good hands (and with a dog friend). Thank you!
Oaklee absolutely thrived with Angelica and her 2 dogs! Our pup is a quirky, anxious girlie who does not do well at boarding facilities. Angelica gave her time to warm up & lots of snuggles & she acclimated quickly. The frequent updates and photos reassured us that she was living her best life and allowed us to enjoy our time away without feeling guilty leaving her behind. We will definitely be trusting Angelica with our girl in the future!!

As of July 2026, there are 22 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Grand Forks. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Grand Forks home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Grand Forks.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Grand Forks sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in ND ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
