“Kathryn is absolutely wonderful with my two pups. She realized right away little Dukie does better with his “momma” on their walks so she takes both the pups together. Kathryn is extremely kind, trustworthy, and very good at communicating. It takes so much off my plate knowing I have a dependable dog walker/sitter for when my baby gets here, absolute Godsend!”

“Abbie is very communicative, she follows instructions well to ensure proper care of your animal, and is kind/understanding to my Zuko! No issues and will certainly plan to book with her again.”
About: I have helped friends and family care for their pets when they are gone. I even helped a neighbor friend when I was in middle school take care of his dogs when his family was out of town. I enjoy spending time with animals especially dogs. I get summers off from my full time job. I will have a part time job which is scheduled on my terms. Therefore I have availability in my schedule to have several "clients" and fulfill required tasks. I have a fenced yard. Also take my dog on several walks especially in the summer. He enjoys playing tug of war in the house with his toys. He also gets exercise running up to the front window to bark at cars going by. :)

About: I have always been an animal lover! I grew up around dogs, cats, and cattle/farm life animals. Every animal that I encounter, I love it like it’s my own! I currently have a very flexible schedule. I am looking for a new opportunity to be around animals this summer and get outdoors whether it’s walking pets or playing outside with pets. I have had 3 big dogs growing up and currently have 2 cats of my own that I adopted from homeward animal shelter. I always ensure that any animal in my care gets all the love that they can and that they have all the needed supplies, toys, and treats.

I've had dogs most of my life and love meeting new furry friends. I've had dogs as small as 5lbs and as big as 85lbs. I'm comfortable with all types, sizes, and breeds. I am capable of following any special instructions/ medications/diets as well. I have higher availability during school breaks but can still make it work during the regular work week. I will adjust time any special instructions you may have for your pet. Need a last minute sit? Just shoot me a message, I can't wait to meet you and your furry friend.
About: Newly SAHM looking to keep busy! Animal lover. No critter too big or too small. Clean, safe, healthy, spoiled, and mannerism/obedience training are my specialties. Will always keep you in the loop for ease of mind! I treat yours like I treat mine… SPOILED. Former nurse, now newly stay at home mom and dog mom traveling with my blue collar man. Looking to stay busy while trying to afford my coffee and thrifting addiction. I can come to you- I will usually have my child with me but safety will always be taken into consideration.

About: Hello! I have always had a love for animals especially dogs and cats. I had my own dog, Charlie, who had complex health issues and unfortunately is no longer with me. He made me comfortable with giving medications, insulin/allergy shots, and following instructions with dietary restrictions that I can also provide your pets with when needed. I currently work full time M-F, but my schedule is flexible during the week and most weekends. I have also been employed for over a year with a company in the F/M area providing pet care services in people's homes. I LOVE what I do and always looking for more opportunities to meet new furry friends. My schedule is flexible and I respond quickly to text/phone calls or email when reaching out looking for pet care. I'm able to do morning shifts before I head to my full time job M-F, lunch breaks, and after work. I can often move my schedule around if you need other times throughout the day too. Just ask! Weekends are more open when I am not out of town. I prefer going to the pets home to provide care where they are in a familiar environment. I can provide walks, bring your pet outside to play, clean litter boxes, feed and fill their water, administer medication etc. Boarding in my home can also be provided, as I have a pet and smoke free home and can work with your pets needs to make them feel safe and at home.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, and caring for them has always been a huge part of who I am. Over the years, I’ve owned and cared for dogs, cats, parrots and other birds, reptiles, farm animals, and a variety of other species. I’ve worked in the veterinary field since 2013 and have been a licensed veterinary technician for the past 5 years. My medical background allows me to recognize signs of illness or distress, provide attentive care, and feel comfortable caring for pets with medical or special needs. I also spent 3 years working as a zookeeper, which gave me even more experience with exotic animals and strengthened my love for working with all kinds of species—not just dogs and cats! Whether your pet needs someone to keep them company, follow a specific routine, provide extra attention, or simply make sure they’re safe and comfortable while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same care and compassion I would give my own. Animals have been the center of my career and my life for many years. If there’s a way I can help an animal—or give their owner some peace of mind—I’m happy to be there. 🐾 I currently work from home doing pet insurance so I make up my own schedule Monday through Friday. I do also take care of my disabled mother so there are some circumstances where I will have to deny a booking if I feel it won't work out for our situation. I also work with a veterinary dermatologist once or twice a month and I cannot do any boardings those days, but I can still do drop-in visits. **Dogs boarding must be good with cats** I treat every pet as an individual and follow their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether they need walks, playtime, cuddles, medications, or just some extra patience, I adjust to what makes them most comfortable. With my veterinary and zookeeper experience, I’m also comfortable with medical needs and a wide variety of animals. 🐾 ** I do require your pet have prior experience with cats, especially if they are med-xl dogs **
About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember. My family had many hunting dogs when I was growing up and after graduating from college I ended up adopting five of my own dogs. I love and have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. My dogs are all different breeds and sizes and vary in ages. I’ve worked as a groomer, a dog handler and trainer at a boarding facility, and have worked with various pet parents on nutrition and behavior training for their dogs. I am currently finishing my undergraduate degree in Animal Science and am then as well as a new certification in hospice and palliative care for senior and terminally ill dogs. I also recently received my certification from the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers. I eventually would to work with pet parents to help them with making sure their pets live a happy and healthy life. I recently graduated and am going to staying in Fargo until fall of 2026 due to an internship that is all mostly done online so I am pretty open during the week and weekend for whatever you and your pup may need. My dogs all have their own kennel as well as their own dogs beds, although they get to sleep wherever and usually chose to sleep on the couch or my bed with me. I have a dog door for them that goes out to the deck with a large fully fenced in back yard. For food and water I have a dog water dispenser upstairs and downstairs and have a separate space from my dogs with dog beds, a tv, couch, and many toys for dogs staying with me to eat and have a space away from my dogs if they need it. I am willing to do whatever you may need to make things as stress free as possible for both you and your pups.
About: When people ask if I have any kids, my response is that I have dogs. My dogs are my family and yes I do celebrate their birthdays. I have had a dog in my house since I was 3yrs old. I have taken care of neighbors pets. I recently rescued a puppy from a farm and organized and found a fur-ever loving home for her. I am still in communication with her owner and get updated pictures. My dream growing up was to have as many dogs like in the movie "101 dalmations". I have taken care of puppies, kittens, bunnies, ferrets, goats, chickens, and ducklings. I am able to stay the whole weekend at owners home. I am able to walk dogs during the week and weekend. The latest drop-in visit I can do is 10pm. I give my full attention to the pets I am caring for. I keep them busy with play or just someone to sit by. I understand it is stressful not only to your pet but also to you as well having to leave them with someone or at a kennel, I feel the same way! I keep meals on schedule and I'm able to administer medications (orally- some need special ways to sneak in 😃). I send picture updates throughout my stay.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 229 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Harwood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Harwood. 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 Harwood after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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. 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Harwood. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the 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.
