“Madison was amazing! She met the pups during a meet and greet, they instantly loved her. Her background in pet care really set our minds at ease. She followed all of our instructions to the letter, even picking up on our Staffy’s anxiety around the fireworks and providing her with meds. The pups were so happy and well taken care of when we got home. She was on time for every visit and extremely communicative. She provided wonderful photos of all the love the pups gave her. I would recommend her to anyone looking for pet care!”

About: There was never a time a lived without dogs, I grew up taking care of my beloved furry friends and l've taken care of pets for family and friends since I was little. I have experience taking care of elder dogs such as my Maisy and Bell, helping them in walking and eating towards the end of their lives, and I have also taken care of younger dogs like my dog hoss. My love and care for animals has only grown as I have. I am currently a student at UND so I do have classes weekdays but I have plenty of time to take care of your pets most days and weekends. My schedule is flexible. I know that you know your pet best and I can follow any instructions on how to keep your furry friends happy. I can make sure they have fresh water and good exercise along with the perfect amount of food based on their schedules. I will care for your four-legged friends with care and respect.

About: I have had multiple animals under my care from dogs and cats to raccoons and squirrels! I have been in animal care of different aspects for my entire adult life. I want to have flexibility, gain more experience, all while getting my degree in Animal Health and Behavior. I am currently working part time and doing school online! I am very flexible with care schedules but am most available in the evenings after 4pm. Depending on the day, I could do different times but it would need to be discussed since I don’t have the same schedule every week. My cat is very friendly with humans but he is very territorial over his home with other animals and I don’t feel comfortable having other pets in my home at this time. With your fur babies, I want to try and keep them in their routine in your home as much as possible to ease possible stress with separation from you. Whether that means play time, training/mentally stimulating activities, or just tv on the couch, Im here for it! I am also willing to take your dogs for walks around your neighborhood, at a park, etc. i would love to discuss what your dogs comfortable with and loves!

About: I will give them much love and attention, and keep them healthy and excited! I use to teach my dogs how to sit and stay, well I think anyone can do that but it's all about having fun with it! I'm looking for a little exciment and it will be a great experience with dogs since all they want to do is have lots of fun! I'm available weekends and nights and morning I tutor a first grader twice a week but anything than that I'm available to have fun with your dog. I had up to 3 dogs at one point and they were very hyper and outgoing so I loved taking them on walks and playing fetch in the yard. I loved animals since I was young so your pet would be great to take care of. I work in the medical field and work 7-3:30. Would love to walk after work, I'm usually free on the weekends! I would love to gain more experience outside mt home I have a fenced in backyard and keep my dogs close when going on walks and taking breaks when needed. Safety is my main priority!

About: I love dogs! I have owned dogs in the past, but currently do not! I will walk, feed, play with, pick up after and make sure your pups are cared for just as if it were you caring for them! I currently work full-time and have a school age child, so I am limited on morning care times, but am more flexible in the afternoons, evenings and weekends! Drop in visits and overnight stays for your dogs will have to be done at your home due to my 4 cats, and that they have not been around dogs!

About: Dogs and cats have always been apart of my life. I grew up with boxers, pitbulls, dobermans, labs and other breeds. I have a beagle name Chairle that I got as a puppy 5 years ago. Charlie has had quite the adventures in 5 years. She has been backpacking in 8 Minnesota state parks, and been on a road trip to 14 states. When at home, we go for 2 to 3, 30 minutes walks a day and play fetch and tug alot. I also have a Shepard mix named Jimmy Dean that I adopted. Jimmy is more of a couch potatoe but he joins the adventure when he has the chance. We would love to watch your pet and have an adventure together. I work a flexible job so I can let your pet out multiple time a day. We will spend the afternoons going for a walk then relaxing. If it is nice out we will be outside most of the afternoon unless your pet is a house cat then they will have lots of windows to look out and pets to be had. I have a nice neighborhood to walk around and beagle, and a shepard mix for your pet to play with. My beagle and shepard have grown up around cats and dogs. We love being outside so we will try to be outside as much as possible. When not outside the pets will be allowed to be up on furniture and sleep in my bed with me.

About: I grew up in Grand Forks with 2 German Shepherds and a Yorkie. I love every type of dog, big or small. I worked at the doggie daycare Petopia in town for a year and a half and only stopped in preparation for school. I loved every dog I met as much as my own and my camera roll is filled with pictures of them! I’m currently a class of 2030 UND Aviation student and I work part time dispatch at Ryan Hall but I’m pretty flexible. I love staying busy, playing tennis, flying, going to my lake, and going on walks, so I think this would be a great addition. I work part time for UND and I start school in August where I typically have class midday. I often get up early and go on nightly walks. I’d love dogs to be apart of my morning and nightly routine. I love to play with dogs when they’re in their high-energy state and I also love to just pet them if they want to lounge. Going on walks and staying healthy is very important to me and having a pup to accompany me would be awesome! Just like myself, I’d always make sure they have water.

About: I’ve always loved animals. I had a lot of pets growing up. I’d often dog and cat sit for my neighbors as a teenager and now I dog and cat sit for friends when possible. I used to have a chihuahua who passed away a few years ago at the age of 16. He was my baby and I miss him so much. Unfortunately I’m too busy to have a pet of my own, but I’d love to walk or watch your dog or cat when possible! I currently work from 8-430 Monday-Friday. I would be able to walk or hang out with your pet when I’m done with work. I’d also be willing to take your pet overnight as long as they’re picked up in the morning. I will be available some weekends and on the weekends I’d be willing to take your pet all day and possibly overnight. I always make sure that my clients pet has fresh water and is fed on time. I also provide potty breaks at least every 2 hours in the day time or as needed. I do not have a fenced yard so if I were to watch your dog at my place I would take him outside on a leash.

About: Since 2011, I’ve had amazing pet experiences with dogs, from loyal companionship to joyful adventures, shaping my life with love and trust. With that being said I’d love to be given the opportunities on this platform to help others! Weekends are completely open for me, making them an ideal time for drop-in visits and dog walks. I naturally start my mornings early with outdoor activity, so fitting in a walk or check-in visit is a seamless part of my routine rather than an afterthought. Throughout the day I'm out and about running errands, which means I'm already on the move and happy to swing by for a midday visit. While I do have social plans some evenings, mornings and afternoons are consistently available and I'm always happy to work around your pet's schedule. Dogs have been a central part of my life from day one — I grew up surrounded by them and currently share my home with two dogs of my own. This lifelong experience means I genuinely understand canine behavior, body language, and what it takes to keep a pup happy, comfortable, and safe. As a drop-in visit and dog walking provider, my focus is entirely on your dog in their own familiar environment — the place they feel most secure. Every visit is attentive and personalized, ensuring your pet receives dedicated one-on-one care, a reliable routine, and plenty of love while you're away. You can trust that your dog is in experienced, caring hands. I treat every client's pet with the same commitment and affection I show my own — because to me, it's never just a job.

“Lori was entirely reliable and I received daily check ins (commentary plus photos) from her. I really appreciated the check ins because I'd had my cat for less than a month when my trip occurred, and this was his first time alone - so I wasn't sure how it might go. I also appreciated that she really likes cats (as well as dogs), which isn't the case for everyone.”

About: I grew up with cats and neighborhood dogs, and animals were always a part of my family. Now I have two dogs of my own: a 9-year-old German Shorthaired Pointer/Lab and a 1-year-old Basset Hound. I have experience with all ages, from puppies to grown-ups. I love dogs, but I'm also happy to do drop-ins for cats. I’m currently working part time where I schedule my own hours so I can be available whenever you need! Come fall, I will be back in my teaching position so my hours will be limited to evenings! When I care for your pets in your home, you can count on me to be reliable and accountable every single time. I'll make sure to be super attentive to your pet's needs and always follow their routines, as well as any specific procedures or rules you have in place. Your pet's comfort and your peace of mind are my top priorities.

Rayna was excellent! She left great detailed notes and multiple pictures after each of her drop- ins. She took great care of our senior dog’s needs and also went above and beyond with spending extra time just keeping him company. We will definitely request Rayna as a sitter for our dog again.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Grand Forks

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Grand Forks on Rover is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $24 per visit. sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 92 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Grand Forks. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Grand Forks choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Grand Forks with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

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