“Keisha loved her time with Stephanie- we were gone during the coldest days of the year but they still played outside! She sent pictures everyday. I highly recommend stephanie!”
“Marissa is always on time and always makes sure to go above and beyond for our puppy! Always sends super detailed reports and makes sure she’s giving the best care for our little one, like turning on some doggy TV for him while we’re gone. Super sweet lady and very easy to communicate with.”
“Raeann was an awesome sitter! My cats absolutely loved her and she returned the love. Raeann provided lots of updates and photos, and kept me in the loop with everything. She even left my place cleaner than I left it before I went out of town! I would highly recommend Raeann for your pet sitting needs!”
About: Does your pet shed? It's okay, me too! I've been pet-setting for all kinds of critters. I'm good with small dogs (I'm a chihuahua-whisperer), big dogs, medium and mutt dogs. I can care for elderly animals and multi-pet homes. Like a postal worker, I'm not deterred by "snow, rain, heat, or gloom of night." Unlike a postal worker, I've never been bit or chased (I will encourage zoomies). If Fido loves to play tug-of-war or your pup is more of a doze-in-the-sun type, I'll match their energy. Whatever your medication and meal-time routine looks like, or kinda-silly bed-time ritual is, I'll do my best to reduce any disruption or distress while you're away. I'm currently working in a freelance capacity, so my schedule is fairly flexible. Whether that means you need someone to pop in quickly for some play-time and a bowl re-fill, or arranging an extended/overnight stay, I can arrange my availability. Planning is important! Providing ample time for me to mark off time in my calendar is preferable. I'm a big believer in taking notes and paying attention to details! I'll follow your routine for any medication, feeding, exercise, playtime, and pet-specific preferences to the best of my ability. I'm no green-thumb, but for extended stays, I can also assist with minor plant-care, mail collecting, yard maintenance (sidewalk shoveling, poo pick-up) if needed and the right tools are provided. If you like text/email pupdates or photos, I can be sure to keep you in the loop.
About: I grew up with cats and dogs, of all sizes and breeds. I have taken great care of family and friends' pets for years, whether at their home or mine. I treat them as if they are my own. Ask anyone who knows me... I'm a huge pet lover. You will never have to worry about your fur baby while you're away... he or she will be loved and taken great care of. If at my house, my family will love them up as well. I currently work part-time, a few days a week, so I'm available to take care of your fur baby/babies pretty much any time. Days I work, I'm available after 2 pm, if I'm needed at your home. If boarding at our home, my family and I work together, taking great care of your pets. We were a great team, all of us loving animals. I have a fence yard with a dog and a cat, who will keep your fur baby company. I will crate your pet, if needed. Your pet will have the freedom to roam the house, taking in all the new things. At your home, I will play and just sit and be present, if that's what's needed. I love to walk, so that won't be a problem, if your fur baby likes those too.
About: I've always felt a deep connection to all animals. Dogs have been a part of my life since I was a young girl. Growing up, my family had two dogs and they were the light of my life. I am now a proud Cat Mom, but best believe my heart aches for another sweet natured pup to enter my life. I have learned not all dogs want or need my affection, that patience and trust must be formed. I will take care of your precious fur baby like they were my own, and respect any directions you put forth. My intention is for your pet to be happy and healthy, and hopefully I will be able to prove I am trust worthy not only to you but also your beloved four legged, tail wagging family member. I plan to work part time as a pet sitter, so I do have flexibility during the day, evening and weekend hours. I have one cat, and two dogs so I will need to be with them as well, but my flexibility really let's me come and go as I please. I won't be able to watch animals overnight at my place, but I can bring them over to meet our sweet 6 year old goldendoodle named Saffron and our miniature schnauzer Pepper. We have a fenced in yard so lots of play time can ensue!
About: I have been asked by many close friends or neighbors to take care of their dogs. I am experienced in working with all sizes, breeds, and personalities of dogs. I currently am a student at University of Mary and I have an evening job which takes up a good amount of my time, but I love animals and am in need of work, so I found this opportunity to be very fitting. I am mostly available earlier in the day (mornings/ afternoons) I ensure to respect others living space and make sure to carefully follow instructions that are left for me regarding others pets and their care.
“It was the first time ever having the sitter come to the house for drop-ins. Zeus took to him right away but later decided to be stubborn and plant his big butt when Bradyn tried to get him back in the house. Bradyn was very patient and kept trying until he succeeded. He took very good care of our 127 lb furbaby.”
About: For the past 8 years, I’ve been caring for pets with the same love and attention I give my own. My experience includes everything from daily walks and playtime to feeding routines, medication reminders, and keeping pets calm and comfortable while their owners are away. I’ve worked with dogs and cats of all ages, personalities, and activity levels—shy pets who need patience, energetic pups who crave interaction, and seniors who need a gentle, steady hand. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique needs and always prioritize safety, communication, and consistency. Whether it’s sticking to a detailed routine, offering extra cuddles, or providing plenty of exercise, I make sure every pet feels secure and cared for. Pet parents can count on me for reliable updates, thoughtful attention to detail, and a warm, trustworthy presence. Pet sitting is my full-time job, so I’m able to give your pets plenty of time and attention throughout the day. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening visits, and I’m flexible with scheduling to match your pet’s normal routine. Since I don’t have pets of my own right now, I happily get all my cuddles, playtime, and companionship from the pets I care for. Your fur babies get my full focus—and lots of love—every visit. Most of my pet care takes place in the pet owner’s home, where pets feel most comfortable and can stick to their normal routine. I’m also open to boarding for pets who do well in a calm, indoor environment. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I make sure all outdoor time is safe, supervised, and on-leash. Your pet’s comfort and safety always come first.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Mandan is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $25 per visit. On Rover, 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 87 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Mandan. 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.
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 with handling special pet needs in Mandan. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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 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.
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.
