“Marissa is awesome! She kept me updated on our pups and was very communicative! There was storms and our boy hates them and he was so content with her and that makes me feel so much as ease! She even went above and beyond and gave us updates on any storm damage and we appreciate that’s sooo much! Can’t wait to have Marissa come back!”

“Ivie is the best! My 18 year old cat is much less anxious when I go away because of Ivie. She takes the time to pet and snuggle with Jasmine. Jasmine knows Ivie loves animals because she is the only other person she let’s hold her besides me. Thank you Ivie!”

About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs in my house since I was born. I currently own 2 dogs, Finn & Sasha. I have experience from small dogs to extra large dogs, elderly dogs and puppies, calm dogs and ones that crave chaos. Whatever category your dog fits in, I’m your person. I’ve dealt with dog reactivity and gone through training with that as well. I currently work a 9-5. I am able to do morning walks and drop in before, as well as after. My weekends typically have more availability. I make sure that your dog will feel safe and comfortable with me. Creating a strong bond is very important, especially with dogs that like a schedule. I’ll respect your home like it’s my own. I’m excited to meet your fur child.
“Brigitte is wonderful & I know that my pup is well cared for while I'm away. She is very reliable, on-time and has great availability. It's a huge relief that I don't have to worry about my sweet pup while at work. Thank you Brigitte!!”

About: I love the outdoors and playing with dogs when i can! I am very clean and respectful person and would provide nothing but quality care for your animals. I would love to have dogs in my life, but am not ready for the full time commitment of having one of my own. Running, hiking, walking will all be part of the deal when I can. I am a full time student at NDSU Nursing through Sanford, and would love to make your dogs part of my free time! I was raised around many dog breeds ranging from Siberian Husky, Pit Bulls to little shih tzus! I am comfortable with any and all dog breeds and would love to meet all of your fur babies! I'm currently in nursing school - and I love to get out and enjoy the outdoors as I can and when the weather allows. With my schedule it would be hard to have an animal of my own but I would love to hang with your fur babies in the mean time. Unfortunately I don't have a private yard or anything for animals - and the best option would be to host your animals at your home in the comfort of their own space!
About: Hello, I'm Michaela! Ever since I was a child, I have had either a cat or a dog, whom I was responsible for feeding, walking, and cleaning up after. Needless to say I am a total Animal Lover. We live a fairly active lifestyle so if your pet needs to move, I'll tire them out before you pick them up. 3 of our favorite places to walk are the nature trail at McDowell Dam, the trails near Fort Lincoln - past Mandan, and the river trail behind Sertoma Park. If your dog is a social butterfly, I also enjoy going to the dog park. Anytime I care for any animal, I approach them with compassion and empathy. I pay close attention to the animal's body language and tend to their needs as they appear. I have worked with dogs and cats of all backgrounds. I am experienced in giving shots and meds. I have end of life care experience as well. Thank you for taking the time to read about me 🙂. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies soon! I work at a local Doggy Daycare/ Training Facility. If I'm working while your dog needs care, I can bring them to work with me! I have a fenced yard and two big, playful girls to keep your pup company. If it's not too hot or cold, we may take a fieldtrip to the dog park!
About: I've always had dogs in my house ever since I was a kid. Now, I work from home and am able to spend the whole day at home with my dog and cat. Our animals are super friendly and love making friends! I work from home so I have plenty of time to watch and play with you dog! I am available for a wide range of drop off and pick up times. I have a fully fenced yard and a pug that loves to make friends. We also have a 9 year old who loves dogs and has plenty of energy to keep up with them.
“Morgan was awesome! She was very detail oriented and consistently communicated with me during the visits. I would recommend her to everyone who is looking for a reliable sitter. She’s a rockstar!”


About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I currently have a chiweenie named Mya and often watch my parents special needs bichon who has Addison’s. I work straight weekends as a RN. Availability is M-T with the exception of some weekends upon request or if needing to extend time. Our home has a fenced in yard and minimal stairs. Can accommodate to dogs who need crating as well! Dogs must be good around kids and get along with our dog as well.
About: I am a dog mom/human mom :) I thrive on being both. I have experience both professionally and personally with dogs and cats. I can even handle a hamster or two! If you have multiple pets in your home, I will not charge more. I have experience giving insulin shots as well as oral medication if need be. I know how important having a trusted pet sitter is and I love providing that service to people. When I am with your pet, I treat them as my own. And trust me, mine is a very spoiled girl! Please contact me with any questions, I would love to walk you through the process and put your mind at ease!
About: In-home care for the furry companions who make a house truly feel like home. ♥️ Leaving our pets can be hard, so I approach every visit with both the pet and the pet parent in mind. I provide calm, routine-focused care that’s never rushed — whether that’s a slow, sniff-filled walk or quiet companionship. I pay attention to the little details, keep stress low and share regular photo updates so you can see your pet comfortable, happy and well cared for. My goal is simple: peace of mind for you and a visit that feels just right for your pet. I have experience with cats, dogs and exotic pets with a variety of temperaments and medical conditions, including asthma, allergies, heart conditions and anxiety. Pet care is intentionally woven into my daily routine so I can provide reliable, unrushed visits throughout the day. I schedule a limited number of clients to ensure each pet receives focused, attentive care, and I build my day around consistent check-in times, walks and overnight stays. This flexible structure allows me to be fully present during each visit, follow established routines and provide timely updates — including photos — so pet parents always know how their pets are doing. I take a thoughtful, gentle approach to pet sitting, focusing on consistency, comfort and trust. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, relaxed and well cared for — with plenty of belly rubs and head scritches along the way.

“Jacob was wonderful! He came over a few days before our trip to meet the pups and they instantly loved him. Jacob sent us daily updates and photos. We will definitely be using Jacob in the future!”

About: As a dedicated owner of both dogs and cats, I bring practical, real-world experience to pet sitting. I understand firsthand the daily dedication it takes to care for both species. My personal pet experience includes successful behavior training—like housebreaking and sidewalk manners for walks—as well as managing daily health routines, including administering medications twice a day using pill pockets. I treat my clients' pets with the exact same standard of care, whether that means keeping your dog on their bathroom routine, ensuring safe walks, or handling your cat’s unique daily needs and medications. Because I run my own business from home, my schedule is incredibly flexible. This allows me to easily structure my days around your cat’s specific routine. Whether they need a midday check-in, precisely timed medication, or just some extra companionship and playtime during the day, my flexible work-from-home lifestyle means I can be there exactly when they need me most. When caring for your cat in your home, my top priorities are safety, consistency, and respect for your space. During each visit, I ensure all basic needs are met—fresh food, clean water, and a meticulously scooped litter box. I also love accommodating their unique quirks, whether that means engaging in their favorite playtime routine or turning on the kitchen sink for a fresh drink! I am highly observant and strictly follow all household rules to ensure your home stays secure and your cat stays happy
About: I have a very active 3 year old bernedoodle at home. I have been taking care of her needs like walking, feeding, and potty breaks. I love going for walks and playing with any type of dog. I am not afraid of large dogs, but also love small ones! I have a very easy going schedule even though I am currently a full time student at the university of Mary and also participate on the UMary women’s soccer team. I can visit your pet between classes and practices. And can visit them at least every three hours. I am comfortable around the area of Bismarck since I grew up with family here. I am always okay with taking dogs for walks and playing outside, even in the North Dakota cold!

About: Six years of life with a large dog will teach you things no certification can. I know what it means to be fully committed to an animal — the routines, the quirks, the way a big dog takes over your couch, your schedule, and your heart. That hands-on experience is what I bring to every sit. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze into my day — it’s built into it. I work from home full-time, which means no long stretches alone for your dog and flexible walk times that adapt to their needs rather than a rigid schedule. We also have a fully fenced yard with open-door access throughout the day, so dogs can move in and out freely and get fresh air and exercise whenever they want — no waiting, no scheduling. Your dog stays in a real home environment — not a crate, not a kennel. With a fenced yard, open outdoor access throughout the day, and someone home full-time, they’ll have space to roam, play, and relax on their own schedule. I follow your feeding, medication, and routine instructions closely and send regular updates so you’re never left wondering how they’re doing.

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 Lincoln stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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.
