Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to take care of their fur baby!”
About: I have taken care of many dogs. My friends and family have trusted me with all kinds of dogs. I love to walk dogs, play with dogs, and everything else that comes with being a pet owner! I have a very open schedule. I may be gone for an hour in the morning and occasional events from time to time. I will have lots of available time to spend with your dog. My home has a very large fenced in backyard. We have a great walking path for long or short walks. We have one dog that gets along very well with other dogs.
“This was my first time using Rover and I had the best experience. Gretchen and Eric were so great with Piper. She is an older anxious dog and they gave her tons of love and attention. I loved getting the updates and pictures. I will definitely have Piper stay with them again! Thank you so much for caring for my dog!”
“Ms. Elizabeth is wonderful and took great care of my Maybel. Maybel even peed a few times in her house and pooped once. Needless to say I was mortified but she was soo relaxed about it. She was not upset at all. I highly recommend her!!! ??????”

About: As a lifelong dog and cat lover, I understand how much pets mean to their families. After raising a Min Pin for 16 years and a Bull Terrier for 11, I’m experienced with puppies, senior dogs, and everything in between. I’ve also cared for many pets through sitting and walking services while living in Germany, always providing loving, attentive care. Treating every pet like family! I work as a paraprofessional and am currently off for the summer, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. During the school year, I maintain a consistent routine and can still provide reliable care. In your home, I can make multiple visits throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, medication, or simply providing companionship and attention. At my home, while I don't have a fenced yard, I do have a large open yard with a field behind our home and several nearby walking paths. Pets in my care receive plenty of exercise, outdoor time, and supervision to keep them safe, happy and comfortable.
“A super warm vibe from Katelyn when dropping off and picking up. Katelyn checked in to ask a good question and her pictures reassured us that Dixie was aok. She was more than ok, even feeling comfortable enough to eat her food, take a nap, and play, play, play with Mae.”
“Miranda was super great with our Labrador. She sent lots of pictures and updates through the stay and was super good about responding. Our flight ended up getting g delayed and we weren’t able to make it back in time for pickup. Miranda was very good to work with and let him stay an extra day. Would definitely bring our dog back again.”
About: Hi! I’m a full-time pet sitter with hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals—not just dogs and cats, but also small mammals and exotics. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, cats, rats, tortoises, lizards, hermit crabs, and even tiny critters like jumping spiders. If it has fur, scales, or a shell, there’s a good chance I’m comfortable caring for it! I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I always prioritize each animal’s individual needs, routines, and comfort level. Whether that means high-energy playtime for big dogs, gentle handling for small pets, or precise care for reptiles and invertebrates, I take pride in providing safe, thoughtful, and reliable care. I’m available full-time, which allows me to be flexible with scheduling and attentive to your pet while you’re away. I understand that every pet household is different, and I’m happy to discuss specific care needs, animals not listed here, or custom pricing. If you have any questions at all—about availability, pricing, or whether I’d be a good fit for your pet—please don’t hesitate to reach out. I’d love to chat and make sure your pet gets the best care possible! I have experience with different age ranges too - I've had the opportunity to see many of my fur family member's long lives, from beginning to end. I am currently working remotely and on my own time, so I have lots of flexibility with times and services. I love being outdoors and enjoy a cozy day in too. We have an unfenced yard but a deck with a gate on the stairs down. We live on walking trails that our fur babies frequent with us. Currently have dogs, cats, rats, and a tortoise. Rats and tortoise are kept in different closed rooms. Dogs and cats are allowed to free-roam the house. We do have MANY kennels (with varying sizes) that we can utilize if needed. I also am comfortable going into your home and watching your critters there too :)
“Sabrina and her family were the best!! We received daily pictures of Milo and updates on how he was doing. We would definitely have them watch our dog again. We know he was loved and snuggled, which made our vacation much more enjoyable!”

“Briea went above and beyond watching my two cats while I was out of town. She's considerate, responsive, and a straight up cat-whisperer! My kitties are shy and warmed up to her in no time. I really appreciated Briea's updates, photos, and follow-through on instructions. I highly recommend!”
“Amanda was an amazing caregiver for my four cats while I was on vacation for a week. She visited twice a day at our agreed‑upon times and always followed up with photos and thoughtful updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. Two of my cats are typically very fearful of new people, but after just a few days they were completely at ease around her. Animals truly recognize kind, caring humans, and Amanda is absolutely one of them. We met before my trip so she could get to know the cats, and I felt comfortable with her right away. She has a kind, easygoing personality, and it was lovely chatting about her own pets too. She also needed to give one cat a transdermal med on her ear for hypothyroidism twice a day and she was very comfortable with providing that for my kitty! If you’re looking for a reliable, compassionate, and trustworthy pet carer, Amanda is the one to choose. I couldn’t recommend her more.”
“First time leaving my puppy, Ollie, with a sitter. Adam was the perfect sitter for my little, timid pup. He knew how to make Ollie comfortable with him, was knowledgeable of dog training techniques, responsive to any questions I had, and left pics and comments. Ollie was well taken care of and my vacation was worry free.”
“I’ll definitely hire Maria again! I’d never gotten a sitter for my kitty before and was a little nervous but she eased my mind and took excellent care of her while I was gone. Thank you for being so kind and trustworthy!! :)”

“Wow! Julia did a wonderful job stopping in to check on Gizmo for multiple visits. He was treated like a king! The pictures Julia sent were so sweet, it was great to see Gizmo on each of her visits.”
About: Cats have always been a special part of my life. I currently have two cats, one 10 years old and one 2 years old, so I have hands on experience caring for both senior cats and younger, high energy cats. While living in Germany, my parents took in several stray cats and I regularly cared for them whenever my parents were away. I'm comfortable with cats of all ages, personalities, and temperaments and I understand the patience, attention, and affection they need to feel safe and happy.
About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life. I foster and volunteer with TMAR and absolutely love it. I’ve had more experience volunteering with young puppies, and the moms after their having their litter (our resident dog is our foster fail that I fell in love with after she had her puppies). I appreciate all ages including the wild youngin’s and the sleepy seniors. ❤️ Love giving baths and snuggles to the dogs that will take the extra love. I’m currently a full time night nurse at the VA in Fargo but live in Barnesville. I can assist with pet care as needed, I’m pretty flexible with my schedule. I have a very friendly dog who loves other dog-friends. I have fostered 8 dogs and can accommodate just about anything depending on the dog! I can work with kennel training if preferred or they can sleep in the bed with me. I would prefer to keep their routine as similar as their home routine as possible to make things easier for them! I have a 5 year old daughter who loves dogs just like her mom and loves nothing more than to help out- especially when it comes to playing. 😊
About: I have a cat of my own (Boots) who is my best friend. I’ve had Boots since he was a kitten. In addition, I have fostered over 6 cats for Homeward Animal Shelter. During this time, I cared for cats that required insulin, supplements, and a structured feeding routine.

Getting to watch their personalities is so much fun to me! I would love to meet your fur babies and when they are with me I’ll love them as if they were mine!! I am currently going to OTA school in Grand Forks so that is Monday-Thursday but my Friday - Sunday is completely open!! If you do need anything after 5 pm during the week I am open to that as well!! I currently just have cats that like to stay inside! They get fed three times a day and get baths every other week to keep their hair nice since they are long haired!

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.

“Yuki was great. She listened to want I had to say and she took copious notes when we met go a meet up. The following day I drop Cadence off for a day care and when I picked her up I could tell she was not stressed like she had been at other facilities. My wife loved the pictures Yuki provided and said Cadence was smiling in all her pictures with her new friends. We plan on boarding Cadence in a few days. I highly recommend Yuki!”

“Bailey has always been so nice and very accommodating. Our dogs also get along great! She sends updates and pictures every time our dog is with her. She has walked him, boarded him and also done daycare for us. I would 100% recommend her for your doggy needs!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I’ve trained my own dogs through three levels of obedience and raised five of them from the time they were 8 weeks old and took care of them through their elderly years including in pup wheel chairs. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and personalities, from playful puppies to independent cats and senior pets. I treat every animal as if they were my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I work school hours during the week and have Thursdays at home, which gives me extra flexibility for pet care. I’m available for walks and drop-ins after 4 p.m. on weekdays, and for boarding or extended visits on weekends. Your pets will always get plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I love spending time brushing and walking all of my furry friends. I don’t have a fenced yard at this time, but I spend lots of time outside with pets in our spacious back yard and make sure they’re always safely supervised. I’m comfortable using leashes, harnesses, and long leads to give dogs room to explore while keeping them secure. Whether in my home or yours, I create a calm, caring environment where every pet feels safe and loved.

About: I am a big corgi lover!!!!! From time to time, I’ve taken care of my family/friends dogs all throughout my childhood, but sadly never had a dog of my own. Before I make the decision, I would love to get more experience working with dogs! I work at home, I’m very organized, manage time well, and great with communication! I think pet care will fit well into my routine because I work at home, and I would love to incorporate walking and getting outside more often! My apartment has a dog wash room so it’s very handy if your dog ever needs a bath. I live in a very safe and secure building that has security outside as well.

About: I have been caring for dogs for most of my life, starting when I was 6 years old, when I was gifted my first puppy for Christmas. I trained my bishon shitzu to jump through hoops at age 11, not professionally, but I was still pretty impressed. I also helped my parents potty train him. When he got older, I cared for him while he had Cushing’s syndrome until the day he went over the rainbow bridge. Just 2 shorts years ago, I got my second dog, Oakley. He has been my entire world and I trained him on my own, as well as brought him to training classes and learned to do some of those things myself. I absolutely adore dogs and I have since day 1. I love all shapes and sizes and I will always care for them as if they are my own. I look forward to meeting your fur babies that you love just like I do. 😊 I’m currently in PA school fully online and would love to have additional company! I have a Goldendoodle around who loves to play with friends! I live in a condo and have a doodle who I take on walks at least once a day, and I’m sure he’d love to have a buddy or two along. He gets along very well with all dogs and always loves to be around them.

“Adam did an awesome job with our dogs! Scarlett doesn’t always have the best social skills with new people, but he handled her like a pro and she warmed up fast. Luka had a rough start not feeling the best, but Adam took it all in stride and kept both dogs safe and happy. This walk was a prep for upcoming house sitting, and it gave us a lot of confidence knowing he communicates well, goes above and beyond, and really cares. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! Thank you for taking the time to consider me. I've been a lifelong pet owner, and welcome all types of animals! I spent two years in the professional dog boarding industry, and now I'm looking to work on a more personal level with my two and four legged clients. I'm comfortable handling dogs and cats of all ages, temperments, and medical needs. Patience and kindness is my motto. I promise to treat your furbabies like they were my own, and send you lots of photo updates! Notable past clients have included a 20 year old orange tabby, 2 guinea pigs, and a terrier mix overcoming severe fear and anxiety issues. No animal is too big or too small, too old or too large. Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions! - Kathryn I consider pet care to be my full time job! My schedule is flexible, with one standing commitment: I volunteer at Cat's Cradle shelter on Thursdays from 4pm-6:30 pm. I stay positive, calm, and gentle in my interactions. My patience is my best asset for building trust with your pet. I want them (and you!) to feel like they're in safe hands while you're gone. I like to stick to their routine as much as possible to help keep them relaxed and happy. I also make sure their environment stays tidy and clean.

“Vanessa came over to walk 1 of my dogs (puppy!) during lunchtime. She also let my other 2 dogs outside so the 3 of them could play together. She brought the puppy on a 1-2 mile walk every day and tried to get his energy out. She was prompt and provided daily feedback with pictures. Will definitely book again!”
About: I have grown up with pets being a huge part of my life. Right now I have my sweet girls Paris and Rana. Paris is a four-year old Golden Retriever and Rana is a rescue kitty from Furry Friend's Rockin' Rescue. We adopted her in 2020! I grew up with cats, and although I didn't get my first dog until I moved out on my own, she has truly made me fall in love with being a dog mom. There's something special about the genuine love that all pets give us, and there's nothing I'd love more than to help take care of yours when life gets busy. Our pets are family. They will be in great hands and will get all of the love that they deserve! I am a full-time musician, but most of the time my Monday-Friday consists of spending time with my own pets before I hit the road! Although my schedule is unpredictable, it does leave room for even more flexibility and the ability to take last minute drop-ins/walk requests! I will always put your pets safety and happiness first. I know how terrifying it can be to leave your pets' care up to someone you've never met, but can assure you they will get nothing but love and attention during my drop-ins! I am unable to have pets come to my own home as it stresses my rescue cat out too much, but love doing drop-in visits at your convenience! I am someone who runs half marathons and walks for fun... So there is nothing I'd love more than to help walk your sweet fur babies as well!

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: Hi there - thanks for checking out my profile! :) EXPERIENCE/BACKGROUND: I have had dogs from the moment I was born up until now.

With that, my husband’s aunt is a vet, which means that any concerns or questions that I have can be answered with a simple text or call! I personally have owned medium to large dogs my entire life, but I’ve had plenty of exposure to small and giant dogs too through family and friends - I’ve always been the “go-to!” Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any further questions - I would love to provide all the answers you need in order to make sure you feel confident and comfortable booking with me! ***I do require a meet-and-greet with all of my clients to ensure that myself and your dog are a good fit! :)*** SCHEDULE: —Weekends (SAT and SUN): pretty open and flexible! —During the week (M-F): anytime after noon! —Note: there may be times where my toddler will need to come with me, but that will only happen if you, your dog, and myself feel safe and comfortable with that. EXPECTATIONS: If you are so kind to allow me to come into your home to take care your dog or to take your dog for a walk within the community, I will leave your home exactly as I found it.

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.
“Isabella has been absolutely wonderful to work with! My timid dog loves when she comes over, and I feel comfortable knowing that Isabella is caring for her. I would highly recommend!”
“Needed a last minute dog walker dog; Marni made it work and has been great. Super responsive, very thoughtful, genuinely cares about animals. We didn’t have time for a meet and greet before and she has made me feel at ease with her responses. I realize it takes time to respond to all the messages back and she was very kind about it. 100% recommend her!”

I am always open to sending photos as well to show you just how much fun your pet is having in my care.

About: Hi! I’m a full-time pet sitter with hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals—not just dogs and cats, but also small mammals and exotics. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes, cats, rats, tortoises, lizards, hermit crabs, and even tiny critters like jumping spiders. If it has fur, scales, or a shell, there’s a good chance I’m comfortable caring for it! I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I always prioritize each animal’s individual needs, routines, and comfort level. Whether that means high-energy playtime for big dogs, gentle handling for small pets, or precise care for reptiles and invertebrates, I take pride in providing safe, thoughtful, and reliable care. I’m available full-time, which allows me to be flexible with scheduling and attentive to your pet while you’re away. I understand that every pet household is different, and I’m happy to discuss specific care needs, animals not listed here, or custom pricing. If you have any questions at all—about availability, pricing, or whether I’d be a good fit for your pet—please don’t hesitate to reach out. I’d love to chat and make sure your pet gets the best care possible! I have experience with different age ranges too - I've had the opportunity to see many of my fur family member's long lives, from beginning to end. I am currently working remotely and on my own time, so I have lots of flexibility with times and services. I love being outdoors and enjoy a cozy day in too. We have an unfenced yard but a deck with a gate on the stairs down. We live on walking trails that our fur babies frequent with us. Currently have dogs, cats, rats, and a tortoise. Rats and tortoise are kept in different closed rooms. Dogs and cats are allowed to free-roam the house. We do have MANY kennels (with varying sizes) that we can utilize if needed. I also am comfortable going into your home and watching your critters there too :)
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life, and have taken care of cats for 2 years now. I love taking care of both equally! I work full time, my husband works part time and is home during the day. We are available to watch your pets on weekends, but can do during the week as well! I have a home in a quiet neighborhood with a fenced in yard with plenty of room for dogs to run. I also own a friendly chocolate lab that would love play with your pup!
“We met James for the first time and scheduled a 4 hour time to see how Bailey does at his house before booking an overnight with him. I am a very overprotective dog mom and I've never given a rating of 5 stars before but James deserves 5 stars. He did everything right to make me feel comfortable leaving Bailey with him. Although he was just there a few hours, he sent me some pictures and a video of Bailey playing with his dog and I so appreciate that. I always ask for pictures when leaving Bailey with someone but often times don't get any and I didn't even ask James for pictures! Bailey seemed to have a wonderful time there and I can always tell when he's had fun because he came home and slept for hours afterward. James is incredibly professional and if you need a good dog sitter, please try him out. I will for sure be using him again in the future.”
