“Lexy is a terrific! I reached out to other Rover dog walkers who either failed to respond or had full schedules. Lexy responded within 5 minutes of my text and was able to accommodate my travel dates. She happily did an initial visit to meet my Great Dane Maddie which gave me confidence she could manage my goofy giant dog. I booked Lexy for 1-week (as a trial for me…) and then again for 2-weeks. Lexy’s 1st day was a real test…Maddie managed to lock herself in an upstairs room in my house! I was ‘in the air’ so unavailable to immediately contact. Lexy attempted to unlock/open the door with no luck. She ended up contacting local non-emergency who sent folks out to the house and safely unlocked the door. Lexy contacted one of my family members as an FYI and also texted and left a voice mail for me to see when I landed. The 2nd day…Lexy mostly did a visit. Maddie just wanted to bark, and bark, and bark…so Lexy sat with her until she settled down (Danes can be a bit neurotic ), then was able to let her out back. Lexy had patience with Maddie and helped her to settle into the new routine. The rest of that 1st week and the other 2-weeks went great! Lexy came out again before the next 2-week job to get ‘re-acquainted’ which worked very well for Maddie (and me). I received daily ‘check-in’ & ‘check-out’ texts and report cards via Rover; Lexy was great about letting me know how the visits were going and how Maddie was settling in. Having the detailed communications allowed me to enjoy my family vacation. I highly recommend Lexy to care for your 4-legged family members!”
About: I have experience with all sizes and temperaments. I am comfortable with shy dogs, high energy dogs and puppies. I am also comfortable with distributing medication and training assistance. I had two high energy dogs myself so I understand the importance of daily walks and human interaction. I would love to meet your babies and set up some exercise/play time! I work a full-time job (8am-4pm) I am available for walks after work or in-home care. I am also willing to bring your babies into my home I live in an apartment so daily walks are a big must! I am also open to staying in your home or doing drop-ins.
“Amanda was super communicative and understanding! She took my last minute booking asap and was amazing at coordinating a pickup/drop off. She was very excited to work with my dog and took her to the river walk! Couldn’t recommend her more!”
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a teen. I have experience with large and small dog breeds, as well as puppies from birth onward. I have two dogs of my own, who are members of the family. We have a secure fenced in backyard to ensure the safety of your baby as well! Please note: I have two children, ages 2 years and 3 months old. For their safety, please let me know the extent of your pet’s exposure and comfort level with children. Thank you! I am a stay at home mom, so I am available 24/7 most days. For dog walking: Typically, when we take our dogs for walks, depending on the time of day my kids will accompany us in the stroller. We are in a very nice, quiet neighborhood. I have two small dogs who absolutely love other animals and would love to keep yours company. We also have a fenced in backyard for dogs.
About: 💥Experienced in high-energy💥, senior 👵oral/syringe medicine administration💊. CPR Certified. 🏥 Your pets safety and happiness are my top priorities! I bring 5 years of professional pet-sitting experience - I took a break to start a business but my passion for this industry brings me right back to doing what I love here on Rover. I grew up in a multi-pet household caring for dogs, cats, birds, and exotics. I also have six years of hands-on experience as a Humane Society volunteer, plus years of sitting for friends and family prior to my professional experience. I currently share my home with two active dogs and two sweet cats, which allows me to stay practiced for playtime or walks. Because I live right in town, I know all the local parks and can easily accommodate short-notice requests. Before any house sitting booking, I request a quick 5-10 minute tour of your home. This helps me meet your dog in a relaxed setting, map out a custom care plan, and write down your specific instructions so everything runs seamlessly while you are away! My work is fully flexible and remote, so I can accommodate short-notice requests, extra time requests and have plenty of energy for playtime and walks! I clean while saying in others home, making sure blankets and toys stay fresh and the home looks as it was found. I set alarms to ensure timely medication administration and that routines are upheld. I stay quite focused on time spent with the animals.

About: Hello! My name is Ava, i’m 19, and i’m a HUGE dog person. I’ve had dogs my whole life, big and small, lazy and crazy, girls and boys. I also have tonsssss of experience with reactive pups. I’m the main dog walker in the family. I’ve also dog sat for many families and I’ve worked for a doggy daycare/boarding facility. I know how to read body language and how to approach nervous pups. I can also handle leash pullers of any size. My current obsession is fostering. I foster for Journey Home Animal Rescue with my roommates and we are LOVING it. Your dog will be so loved under my care. I seriously treat them like children. All dogs are good dogs!:) I currently work part time as a lifeguard and my schedule is usually all over the place and never really consistent so my plan is to take clients when i know ill be available. I treat all dogs like they’re my own! I’ve always had a deep connection with animals and i’ve been told it’s because i treat them as if they’re a human. I like to spoil pups any way that i can (walks, treats, playtime, nap time, cuddles, etc.) depending on their preferences because all dogs are different!
About: I've had big dogs and little dogs in my life and in my families for years!!! I love pets and genuinely care about their needs and love! I will give your precious family pet the love, care and all the snuggles they deserve while you are away! I work full-time M-F. 8:30-4:30. I am only 3 minutes away from my work and my job is flexible to come and go if needed! I am off on holidays and almost always around the area. I always come home for lunches and am able to your pet out for a potty break and a quick walk and play time. I am also willing to come to your home and let your pet (s) out for a quick walk and little play time at your home if you are going to be gone longer than your pet is used to. I live in a large apartment with a big balcony that dogs can sit and watch outside or if they just want to be outside! It has 3 fenced run areas and right on a walking path. There is an elevator since I live on the 3rd floor for pups that can't make the stairs. There are lots of dogs in the building. I am also willing to come to your home, whatever is best for your pet! I will provide all the love, care and snuggles that your pet deserves and needs. Pets are free to sit on my furniture or sleep on the bed or whatever they prefer. I have a large basket of dog toys, bones and treats.
“Bella is very happy with Angel. She's very excited when he comes over and pick her up and really don't want to return home. She loves walking and I'm glad we found Angel to do that for us.”
About: I have had had pet care experience with all kinds of pets, from cats, dogs, and rabbits. I have volunteered at a cat shelter for 2 years back in my hometown in Hawaii. This included cleaning litter boxes, playing with them, feeding them, and giving medicine if needed. I also pet sat both big and small dogs and love to take them on walks. And I had a rabbit who lived to a long healthy age of 10 years! I do miss playing with my sister's cat back home so I will make sure your pet gets the love and care they need. I also can send pictures of your pet while you are away if wanted or if I think they are being cute or funny lol. I work part-time and am in and out of class depending on the week so we can work on a schedule together and see what works. I have wide spaced apartment if needed for pet sitting at my place for your pets to run around, but only for cats. I also have no problem caring for your pet in your own home and cleaning up after them.
About: I have 10+ years of experience pet sitting for both cats and dogs. I have a 3.5 year old pit bull mix who is full of love and energy. We have completed 4 obedience classes and she even has a few AKC trick titles! I have also taken classes to train my own (future) service dog and worked with dog behaviorists. I am very familiar with reactive dogs (my pup is on her own reactive journey!) and am comfortable helping dogs work through that in walks and muzzling if needed. I also have experience with special needs dogs including blind and dogs with amputations. I am happy to make any accommodations your pup needs! All dogs are good dogs!!! I am happy to bath, brush, ear care, and teeth cleaning if wanted for an extra fee. Happy to provide references as well if requested! I hope to meet you and your pet soon! I am happy to come by for as many walks as needed during the day! I can be very flexible and am happy to set up a regular schedule if wanted! I own my own business from home so if I stay in your home, the pets are not left alone for more than a few hours at a time if I run errands or have an event. Because I own my business, I am also able to accept same day booking and help out in a pinch if needed! I am very flexible and willing to enforce any rules you might have for your pet. My dog sleeps in bed with me and your dog is more than welcome to do the same if they are allowed! I can take pups out for as many walks and potty breaks as needed and we will have lots of play time to build a relationship (I believe that is the most important part of caring for animals!)
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: Hi! I’m Rachael, a lifelong animal lover and pet parent to two dogs and a cat of my own. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets, and I’ll treat yours with the same patience, attention, and care I give my own. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, whether your pet loves long walks and playtime or would rather curl up on the couch and keep me company. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’m currently a graduate student at UND, which gives me some flexibility in my schedule and makes pet sitting and dog walking a great fit for me. I’m dependable, attentive to detail, and very comfortable following specific care instructions. Most importantly, I understand that pets are family. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable while you’re away and for your pet to feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Previously I was an RN for 13 years. Now I am a full time grad student at UND, so have a pretty flexible schedule. I just began my first semester towards becoming a CRNA. We cannot work while in the program, so I am looking for other avenues of generating an income. I currently live in an apartment, so won’t be able to host your pets, but I can take care of your pet in your home or go for walks or anything you need.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Grand Forks
I highly recommend her! She takes exceptional care of my dog, Raina. Every photo she sends captures Raina looking relaxed and happy, enjoying her time. Her communication is excellent, she's always reliable, and I truly appreciate the peace of mind she provides. I've booked with her more than once and will absolutely continue to do so.
The perfect dog walking trooper. It rained and poured while I was at work but Jacob came through and got my dog out and toweled her dry after. The time was for an hour and he stayed in and played with my dog until she was flat out exhausted. An excellent dog friend and I highly recommend him!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Grand Forks. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route , the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Grand Forks after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

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 walker 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.

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 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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
walkers 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 walker.
