About: I have over two years of experience caring for dogs and cats in a daycare and boarding setting, along with additional experience caring for pets for friends and family! I’ve worked with animals of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from playful puppies and kittens to laid-back seniors. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, enrichment, and administering medications. I’m also trained in dog and cat CPR and first aid, so you can feel confident knowing your pets are in safe, caring hands while you’re away. I’m currently a Veterinary Technology student at NDSU, and I love being able to combine my education and hands-on experience to provide the best care possible for every pet! I’m currently a college student looking to share some extra love and snuggles with your pets! While I do have classes to work around, my schedule is fairly flexible. I’m available most weekends and select weekdays, and I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s needs. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends and give them plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away! I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs, personality, and routine to help them feel happy and comfortable while their owners are away! For walks, I provide safe, enjoyable exercise and time to explore. During drop-in visits, I take care of feeding, potty breaks, litter boxes, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. For overnight stays, I maintain their normal routines and make sure they feel safe and cared for. With over two years of professional experience and as a current Veterinary Technology student at NDSU, I’m committed to providing safe, loving, and reliable care for every pet!
About: I’ve got quite a bit of experience with all sorts of animals! I grew up with two dogs, one of which was a small dog that had diabetes and required me to give them insulin occasionally, the other was a bigger dog with lots of energy, so I’m comfortable being around dogs of all shapes and sizes. I currently have four cats of my own, each with their own personality and temperament, so taking care of cats should be no problem. I love spending time with animals—I will give them all the scratchies and probably send too many pictures, but they will be adored and taken care of while you’re away! I currently work part-time for the City of Fargo and am looking to fill in some free time by hanging out with some animals around the city of Fargo. My shifts are usually short, so I’m able to check on your pets before work, after work, and some times in the middle of the day. I am trustworthy and reliable! While visiting pets in your home, I’ll spend time giving them all the attention and all the pets. And after my visit, I’ll take care to ensure that your house is locked and left with the same care I found it.

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 **

The average cost of Dog Walking in Oakport is $22 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $24 per walk.

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 Oakport. 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 Oakport 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 Oakport. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise

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.
