“We were in search of a new dog sitter after our previous sitter graduated from college and left the area. After a brief meet and greet we decided to move forward with Kendra as our dogs were very comfortable with her from the time she entered our home. We received updates and photos when we were away for the weekend as well as a hand written note thanking us for allowing her to care for our dogs. Kali and Thundar appreciated the personalized dog treats that were left on the counter for them to enjoy. Kendra went above and beyond caring for our dogs and home. Our house was neat and tidy when we returned. (possibly cleaner than we left it). I plan to use Kendra for our 2 week vacation this winter. Thank you Kendra!”


“Lauren is the best! She so obviously loves dogs and we were delighted to have her housesit with our 3. She even got the grumpy one to cuddle with her a bit! That says a lot because he is very selective. No issues at all and so nice to know we can rely on her when we need our 3 guys to be coddled when we’re out of town!”


“Kimmie was wonderful!!! A big storm came through on one of the nights Kimmie was watching our dogs and when the storm sirens went off in the middle of the night Kimmie made sure the dogs were safe in our (unfinished) basement. She went above and beyond to stay with them to keep them calm, so that was a big plus! She did a great job communicating with us when we were away and our dogs seemed to thrive with her. That’s even more notable considering our younger dog lost his sight a few weeks prior to the dates we used her, and she navigated that unexpected concern beautifully!”


“Callan was AMAZING she took such good care of my Babies all four of them She sent pics and videos daily She cuddled with them Played with them she took amazing care of my house i was so afraid to use someone i didn’t know with my furry kids but i would use Callan anytime 100% recommended as the best dog sitter i have ever used!!!!”


“Good communication!”


“Ava did a fantastic job taking care of our 2 dogs while away on a trip. She made sure to give updates, send pictures and both dogs enjoyed her company. We would recommend her and would rebook with her in a heartbeat.”



About: I am an experienced pet care taker. I had a dog of my own for 7 years before she passed away of a heart condition. Before that my family had dogs and cats growing up. I also consistently foster animals through one of the organizations in town. I work from home and can be pretty flexible about my schedule. When I have a dog I'm usually taking them out over 2-4 hours based on age and need. While away depending on the dogs need I I have dog gates in my home, so they will be restricted to where they are in the house when i'm around and when i'm not around. My place is clean and is a decent size - it is an apartment.

About: I have taken care of my neighbors, friend, and co workers dogs when they have been busy between jobs or out of town for extended period of time. I am currently on summer break as work remotely from home and will go to campus for weekly meetings. I am available all days of the week. I can easily take animals to local parks or on doggie dates with my coworkers-worker coaches that have dogs themselves. I work with owners to maintain animals normal routine.

“Lizzie did a great job with our hyper 85lb dog as well as our unique personality daschund. Went on potty breaks as well as LONG walks. Appreciated! Lots of updates and photos. Recommended!”


“Annika is amazing! She takes incredibly good care of our pets, but also does an amazing job with the house. It’s so nice to come home and have so many of the little things done, and the animals happy! Thank you, Annika! We will definitely be hiring you again!”


About: I went to school to be a vet tech. I can administer any medications you may need. I specialize in the care of elderly pets and their unique needs. Animals are better than people. My schedule is open for weekdays or weekends, night or day. Your babies can come stay with me or I can stay with them (sometimes home is just less scary) Whether at my home or yours if there’s a yard we’ll be playing for hours, if there isn’t we’ll be taking some fun walks at the park. I always check the air temperature to decipher concrete temps because nobody wants hot paws! I also always carry water so we can all stay happy and hydrated.

About: Hi! I’m Nicole and I live in the Fargo area. I grew up having a dog and love to be around animals! I have loved pet sitting and dog walking for people in the past! I am very available during the summer and looking for opportunities to fill my time with some amazing pets! I am also available after 3ish during the school year! I currently live in an apartment and am unable to have pets so I look forward to spending time loving on all the dogs and cats possible!

“Siri did a great job watching our two pups for the afternoon ❤️ I highly recommend her as a sitter 🤩”


“She was great with my dog and everything went great!”


About: I have had a dog as long as I can remember. I have dog sat for multiple family friends with different breeds. I am good at taking dogs on walks, playing with them, feeding them, and more. I can adapt to different temperaments. I have also taken care of a 14 year old dog that had a very specific schedule and needed constant supervision to help keep away from potty accidents and very specific feeding instructions. I work full time but don't start until evening. I am able to sit with your pups more most of the day. I already love to sit around with my old lady dog. I can tell when she's in a mood to play so we play until she is done and ready to go take some more naps. I would love to play with your dogs as well! I will only watch your dogs in your own homes. I can follow any instructions you want. I can bring a ball with me but you will need to provide other toys if desired. I like to be in the same room so I can see them to make sure they aren't doing something they shouldn't be.

Emmalee H.
“I’ve known Emmalee for about 9 years and she has always had a love for animals. She has cats and a dog at her home that she cares for. When my family got our first dog, Emmalee always helped us with training and loving our dog as if it was her own. Everytime Emmalee comes to my house, my puppy is so excited to see her and licks her face. Emmalee is very reliable and has always had a love for animals!”


Vanessa K.
“I would highly recommend Vanessa to pet sit! She has helped me with my puppy during multiple occasions. She is very responsible and caring. She left my house spotless while still getting all of my puppy's energy out. She even taught him new tricks. Her background has allowed her to be a great asset in the pet sitting world! 10/10 recommend!”

Annie B.
“I travel a lot and Annie is hands down my #1 choice for a cat sitter. Life is busy and when my friends stop by quick for fresh water and food, I get it. With Annie, I know that they will get at least a few hours of quality time as well. Either playing, snuggling, or just being there with them. I feel like animals really gravitate towards her because she is adaptable and understanding if an animal needs you to be calm, playful, or give them some space. If you have Annie watching your pets, you can be at ease knowing they are getting the best care, because she genuinely cares.”


Nicole R.
“Nicole is such a sweet and caring person, and is very responsible. She loves our pup well and is an excellent communicator; I would trust Nicole with any pet! In addition, she is very clean and organized, and I have no doubt would leave your home better than she found it when house sitting!”


Siri T.

Brigit R.
“She met my dog and they got along right away. Brigit is able to work with any dog she meets and loves them all. She has told me that she wants to foster dogs one day and I hope she does because those dogs would be in a very loving home until they find their forever home.”
