“Kimberly and Tim were so good with my Ziva when I had to go out of town for a few days. Ziva seemed to really enjoy her time there and she was well cared for. Also they let her sleep with them like she's used to with me. I'll totally use their services again if I need to!”
“Katrina did an excellent job of caring for Knox. He appeared to feel very comfortable and found a friend among the pups that were there. He had good social interaction and was a tired pup when we got home.”
“Lyudmila was very friendly and sent many updates and pictures of Merlin. I'm very anxious when leaving my pets anywhere, but he seemed to have a great time. She was also able to take us on last minute. Thanks so much for watching my pup!!”
“Allison was beyond amazing! I could feel her kindness from the start. She was so good with our dog. This was our first time leaving him since he was very young and he had so much fun! She has a deep understanding of dogs and is in tune with their needs. She sent updates and pics throughout the stay which was reassuring. Would recommend over and over.”
“Jennifer and family took wonderful care of Piper a couple days after she had a dental procedure. They gave her pills and were very sensitive to the fact that she did not feel 100%. They sent photos snuggling with Piper and taking her on walks. I definitely recommend Jennifer if your pet needs a home away from home.”
“Pamela has been so wonderful with our little wigglebutt, Max. She’s always so accommodating and makes our pup feel at home (which is a big deal, with all of his anxiety). We’ve never looked to leave him with anyone else and we know Max will miss her terribly when we move out of state next month, as will we!”
“Renae was absolutely amazing with my pup! She kept me updated the whole time, sent me check-ins, and made everything so easy from start to finish. Harlynn came back happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I really appreciate how attentive and reliable she was throughout the entire process. I will definitely be booking with Renae again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to take care of their fur baby!”
“We LOVE Sabrina and her family! Our pups get so excited to go and hang out with them! I stress soooo much less being away from our fur babies when they stay with this awesome family! We will continue to have our pups stay with Sabrina as long as she allows us to!!!!!❤️”
“Elizabeth was a perfect fit for Zoey. She made sure she had some excerciae and cuddles. She sent us a few pics that helped us see she was fine. We recommend Elizabeth to anyone looking for care with their dogs. Thanks Elizabeth.”
“Taylor's care was simply fantastic. Her own dogs are so gentle and welcoming; you can see that Taylor and her husband are dog lovers. My dog craves exercise, so I was a little hesitant about how she would adjust to staying in an apartment, but I should never have worried! Taylor made sure she had lots of safe, outside, running time at the park! She sent us pictures and updates, and although Sydney was glad to see me, she was also stress-free and obviously well cared for. I recommend Taylor 100%.”
“Baley receives top honors. I was very anxious about leaving my 13 yr old rescue with anyone new. Unfortunately, circucumstances gave me no choice. She listened to all my concerns and anxieties and provided options and solutions. Bacon stayed overnight, she sent pictures and texts. I am thrilled to now have someone for Bacon that I totally trust. We never went left town due to his anxiety and barking. Now I feel totally at ease recommend her highly.”
“Miranda provided a safe and caring home for our two dogs while we were out of town. We even received a couple of pictures, which was nice. We ended up delaying our return by 1 day and Miranda was able to accommodate the last minute request. Thank you!”
“Ana was so caring for our dog, Nala. She gave great updates (including video and pics!). It was so comforting knowing she was being well-loved on and cared for while we were away! We will definitely ask Ana to watch her again sometime! ☺️”

“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!! :)”
“Briea has been fantastic for our girls every time she’s helped watch them :) This time around she was so sweet to celebrate one of our cat’s birthdays while we were away- we appreciate her so much!”
“Vanessa was fantastic! We were able to relax and enjoy our time away because we knew that our cats were being taken care of by someone who is attentive and caring. We are very grateful for Vanessa and will continue booking with her!”
“2nd time we used Kierstin to kitten sit for us while we were on vacation. She is extremely trustworthy, caring, and follows instructions to a tee. She will make sure your pets are loved while you're away. Highly recommend!!”
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.
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.
“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.”
“Harlie was in every way a great sitter and companion for my two cats, Jonathon and Eleanor. She was patient with Jonathon and gave them both lots of attention - play time and snuggle time. She communicated with photos every day while I was gone which gave me a great sense of satisfaction knowing my kitties were being well attended to. I definitely recommend Harlie and would ask her to sit again - no question.”
About: Growing up I had a cat who was my best buddy for 17 years so most of my cat experience comes from him. I’ve also babysat pets both dogs & cats for family friends starting at age 11. As an adult I’ve worked at a few different doggie daycares that also offered boarding for cats and was in charge of caring for them. I also stop by and check in on a family friend’s cat pretty frequently whenever she’s out of town. I usually go there once a day for 1-3 hours to spend time with her kitty and make sure there’s food, water & clean litter!
About: I have grown up with cats all my life, as my grandparents lived on a farm and had many indoor and outdoor cats. I am employed with an agency in the F/M area and have done many cat visits that have involved cleaning litter, feeding, giving medication, playing, and of course giving lots of pets and love.
“Abigail and my little Loey have a special relationship that I can see from the wonderful photos Abigail sends me. I can tell Lo is a happy kitty when Abigail is with her! It makes me happy to know that Lo is being taken care of with love while I’m gone. She’s the best!”
“Jessica came and checked in on my dog while I was out of town for a few days and was great! She made sure to give her extra snuggle time every time she was here and sent me tons of pictures and thorough updates.”
“Arica is such an amazing pet sitter!! I appreciate the thorough details of her visits and she's so sweet with my boys! I come home to happy and healthy pets, and even my timid boy is even getting more comfortable with her. She understands their body language and keeps them as comfortable as possible with their mom being away. She's now my go to sitter when I need one!”
About: I have lived with and cared for cats of all ages since I was a child. From a litter of kittens I had to raise, to some ornery seniors that fell in love with me. I love them all. I have always had a way with cats and have never met a cat that didn't like me. (take it from my grandma's cat who hated everyone except me). I also have experience in the veterinary field and can administer medications if needed.
About: I fell in love with cats in 2009. I grew up with my sweet girls Sophie and Noel, and now have a wonderful rescue cat named Rana! Whether your cat loves cuddles, to have company while still having their own space, or if they just need a designated treat giver while you're out... I'm here to help!
About: I love animals and will make sure your pets needs are my first priority. You will get pictures of your pets while in my care. Im currently available, so I’ll be able to take care of your dog or dogs. I do have a dog of my own Ziggy who is friendly with everyone. Ziggy and I frequently go on walks to different parks. We travel quite frequently and are always checking different areas out. If you have a preferred area we go that’s ok!

“Yuki was absolutely amazing!!!! I loved that she sent a ton of pictures throughout the day of Bella playing with the other dogs and when we got home Bella was so tired from all the fun she fell asleep in the doorway!!! I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!!”
“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!”
“My partner and I were driving across the country with our 50lb Samoyed, Jack, to relocate to our new home. On our trip, we decided to stop through Fargo where my family is from and take in NDSU football game — Go Bisons! We needed someone to watch Jack for the few hours we were at the game, and Taylor readily accepted our last minute (day before) request. Jack is a calm, friendly dog who seems to have been experiencing some anxiety on the long drive and is not consistently eating or pooping. We were a little nervous leaving him with new people in a new place when he was already on edge. However, Taylor and her family seemed to put him at ease immediately. Taylor kept us updated with pictures and milestones, and when we picked him up he had eaten all of his food, pooped, and played a bunch outside. He seemed happy, calm, and well cared for. If you have any dog sitting needs, we definitely recommend Taylor!”
“Pamela was a fantastic sitter for our senior dog Kurt. Great communication both before and during the daycare. A lovely neighborhood with a great park. Super friendly and professional. We highly recommend Pamela for your pet-sitting needs in Fargo!”
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.
“We had a great experience. Ty was friendly, responsive and flexible when our times needed adjusting. The fenced yard is great and the dogs loved exploring all of the dog toys. Happy dogs. Happy dog parents. We’ll definitely use Ty again.”
“Rachel and her family have been a life saver for us. We have a lovely little pup that adores kids and other puppies...and Rachel has just that. Eva loves to go to Rachel's. A sleepy pup is a wonderful pup❤️”
About: I have a lot of dog experience plus dogs myself. I’ve taken classes trained and also done boarding before. I also know how to do cpr and tend to special dogs I love spending time with my dogs. Your dogs will get the same amount of attention and loving as my dogs do. Nothing better than spending my free time with my dogs. I have a fenced in yard. I have 2 dogs that can and will keep them company. Super friendly dogs that will play all day if they could.
“Awesome sitter! Was able to squeeze my girl in last minute on the Fourth of July so I could spend time with family instead of stressing over her barking (from separation anxiety) in the hotel. Erin is so sweet and invited us in right away to take a look at her house and the backyard. She made me feel very good about leaving my little angel in her care. When we went to pick her up Erin invited us in again and filled us in on everything they did together. Mocha was a very happy girl when we picked her up and I know they had fun together!”

“KayLee was great and took such great care of our Saige. Love that she took the time to do a meet and greet with her pups when we dropped off to let them get acquainted before I left. The detailed update when we picked her up was great as we very much appreciated knowing how Saige did and that her nightly routine went smoothly! She was so tuckered out she fell asleep on the short ride home. Thanks again!”

We’ll definitely be booking with her 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 and a deck with a gate on the stairs down. We live on walking trails that our fur babies frequent with. 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 :)
“Mikasa was very accommodating and has great communication. She sent me pictures threw out the day and stayed in contact and was on time. I never worried about my puppy Raven for a second.... she also had her Yorkie for playmate. I will be using Mikala anytime I need a sitter for Raven. :)”
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.

“Kathryn is absolutely wonderful with my two pups. She realized right away little Dukie does better with his “momma” on their walks so she takes both the pups together. Kathryn is extremely kind, trustworthy, and very good at communicating. It takes so much off my plate knowing I have a dependable dog walker/sitter for when my baby gets here, absolute Godsend!”
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: I have been caring for dogs of all sizes since I was 11 years old, starting with friends’ and family members’ pets. I also volunteered at my hometown Humane Society for four years, where I gained valuable hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and temperaments. Growing up, my family participated in a foster program, where we cared for a mother dog and her litter of five puppies. That experience gave me a deeper understanding of the patience, dedication, and specialized care dogs need at every stage of life. For the past 4 years, I’ve had the opportunity to work professionally with dogs, and it’s a career I’m passionate about continuing. I’m also a proud dog owner myself, so I understand the trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I strive to treat every dog as if they were my own, providing them with the love, attention, and care they deserve. Dog sitting and boarding is currently my full-time career, and I truly love what I do! Animals have always been my passion, and I’m grateful to have turned that passion into a profession. I have worked at three different doggy daycare and boarding facilities, serving as a Dog Handler, Shift Leader, and Assistant Manager. These roles have given me extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, temperaments, and energy levels. Throughout my career, I’ve gained valuable knowledge in pet behavior, safe group play, feeding routines, medication administration, and providing individualized care to ensure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Every experience has strengthened my passion for working with dogs, and I’m committed to providing the highest level of care for every pet entrusted to me. My husband and I share our home with two wonderful dogs, Woody and Bee, who absolutely love making new friends! Woody is our German Shorthair Pointer. He’s playful, gentle, and full of love. He has accompanied me to doggy daycare facilities and has experience interacting with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. He is incredibly social and enjoys making every dog feel welcome. Bee is our Golden Retriever, and she’s as sweet as can be. She loves cuddles, making new friends, and having fun with other dogs. Her calm, friendly personality helps other pups feel comfortable and at ease. We live in an apartment with a spacious living area where the dogs can play and relax indoors. Outside, we have a large grassy area directly across the street that provides plenty of space for walks, playtime, and potty breaks. I take the dogs outside every 3–4 hours (or more often if needed) to ensure they stay comfortable and get plenty of fresh air. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. If your pup is crate trained or requires crating for their routine, I’m happy to accommodate that. Otherwise, they’ll be treated like part of the family and receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, and, of course, all the cuddles they’re comfortable with!
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 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.
About: I've grown up with vastly different dogs; my first was a grumpy senior cocker spaniel and my last was the sweetest, smartest Australian Shepard/blue heeler. I've also taken care of friends' and family's pets like my aunt's deaf pitbull and my cousin's St. Bernard. Needless to say, I have a wide range of pet experience. I'm currently an online graduate student, which means I have flexibility to work around yours and your pet's schedule. I'm available most days with available times from early morning to late evening. It's important for a pet to feel safe in their home. It's important to follow a pet's boundaries, I try to cater to their needs and their routine.
“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: Hello! I have always had a love for animals especially dogs and cats. I had my own dog, Charlie, who had complex health issues and unfortunately is no longer with me. He made me comfortable with giving medications, insulin/allergy shots, and following instructions with dietary restrictions that I can also provide your pets with when needed. I currently work full time M-F, but my schedule is flexible during the week and most weekends. I have also been employed for over a year with a company in the F/M area providing pet care services in people's homes. I LOVE what I do and always looking for more opportunities to meet new furry friends. My schedule is flexible and I respond quickly to text/phone calls or email when reaching out looking for pet care. I'm able to do morning shifts before I head to my full time job M-F, lunch breaks, and after work. I can often move my schedule around if you need other times throughout the day too. Just ask! Weekends are more open when I am not out of town. I prefer going to the pets home to provide care where they are in a familiar environment. I can provide walks, bring your pet outside to play, clean litter boxes, feed and fill their water, administer medication etc. Boarding in my home can also be provided, as I have a pet and smoke free home and can work with your pets needs to make them feel safe and at home.
“Kierstin was great with our dogs! One of them usually takes a little bit of time to warm up to people, but she liked Kierstin right away! She was great with communication, prompt, and wonderful with our dogs. Will definitely use her again!”
About: Hi, I’m Jess 😊 I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and currently have multiple 5-star reviews from happy pet owners. I take pride in being reliable, communicative, and making sure every pet feels safe and comfortable while their owner is away. I’m especially available during the week for drop-ins, walks, and check-ins, and I’m great at sticking to routines like feeding schedules, potty breaks, and exercise. I adjust my care based on each pet’s personality—whether they’re energetic and playful or more relaxed and need a calm environment. When I’m in a client’s home, I’m respectful, clean, and treat both the space and the pet with care. I also provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make the experience stress-free for both you and your pet, and to give them the same level of care and attention they’re used to. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I make sure I set aside dedicated time for each visit so pets stay on a consistent schedule. I have more availability during the week, especially for drop-ins, walks, and check-ins throughout the day. My weekends are more limited, but I can still accommodate certain requests with notice. I focus on being reliable, attentive, and making sure each pet feels comfortable and well cared for while their owner is away. I always follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions the owner provides. I know how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owner is away. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and keep everything clean and organized. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and bathroom breaks, and I always prioritize their safety and comfort. I also provide updates with messages and photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away.
About: Growing up, I've always had pets, and my affection for them has only grown stronger as I've gotten older. I'm fascinated by creatures of all kinds and enjoy learning about them. My pet-care experience stems from having my own pets as well as caring for family, friends, and volunteers over the years. I’m excited to get to know you and your pet and provide that unconditional safety and love. Ideally weekends work best but weekdays in the morning are just fine as well. I have a mixed schedule so contact me for any questions. I can always assure my clients that i will take the finest possible care of their dog or cat. I do recognize that leaving a pet at home can be stressful but I make note of all relevant information, such as emergency contacts, veterinarian details, food recommendations, medication information, alarm codes, etc. Never forgetting to lock the doors, and never leave the building without a key. You can be sure that your pet is in good hands.
About: I have grown up with both big and small dogs, as well as cats. I’m a lover of all animals and can’t wait to help you with yours! I prioritize them getting adequate exercise, play time, and of course snuggles and treats. I am a senior college student with a flexible schedule. I can work around yours to provide the best care.

“Kimberly and Tim were so good with my Ziva when I had to go out of town for a few days. Ziva seemed to really enjoy her time there and she was well cared for. Also they let her sleep with them like she's used to with me. I'll totally use their services again if I need to!”
“Katrina did an excellent job of caring for Knox. He appeared to feel very comfortable and found a friend among the pups that were there. He had good social interaction and was a tired pup when we got home.”
“Allison was beyond amazing! I could feel her kindness from the start. She was so good with our dog. This was our first time leaving him since he was very young and he had so much fun! She has a deep understanding of dogs and is in tune with their needs. She sent updates and pics throughout the stay which was reassuring. Would recommend over and over.”
“Pamela has been so wonderful with our little wigglebutt, Max. She’s always so accommodating and makes our pup feel at home (which is a big deal, with all of his anxiety). We’ve never looked to leave him with anyone else and we know Max will miss her terribly when we move out of state next month, as will we!”
“Renae was absolutely amazing with my pup! She kept me updated the whole time, sent me check-ins, and made everything so easy from start to finish. Harlynn came back happy, calm, and clearly well cared for. I really appreciate how attentive and reliable she was throughout the entire process. I will definitely be booking with Renae again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to take care of their fur baby!”
“Elizabeth was a perfect fit for Zoey. She made sure she had some excerciae and cuddles. She sent us a few pics that helped us see she was fine. We recommend Elizabeth to anyone looking for care with their dogs. Thanks Elizabeth.”
“Taylor's care was simply fantastic. Her own dogs are so gentle and welcoming; you can see that Taylor and her husband are dog lovers. My dog craves exercise, so I was a little hesitant about how she would adjust to staying in an apartment, but I should never have worried! Taylor made sure she had lots of safe, outside, running time at the park! She sent us pictures and updates, and although Sydney was glad to see me, she was also stress-free and obviously well cared for. I recommend Taylor 100%.”
“Baley receives top honors. I was very anxious about leaving my 13 yr old rescue with anyone new. Unfortunately, circucumstances gave me no choice. She listened to all my concerns and anxieties and provided options and solutions. Bacon stayed overnight, she sent pictures and texts. I am thrilled to now have someone for Bacon that I totally trust. We never went left town due to his anxiety and barking. Now I feel totally at ease recommend her highly.”
“Miranda provided a safe and caring home for our two dogs while we were out of town. We even received a couple of pictures, which was nice. We ended up delaying our return by 1 day and Miranda was able to accommodate the last minute request. Thank you!”
“Ana was so caring for our dog, Nala. She gave great updates (including video and pics!). It was so comforting knowing she was being well-loved on and cared for while we were away! We will definitely ask Ana to watch her again sometime! ☺️”
About: Three years as a veterinary assistant and a current pre vet student has prepared me to provide attentive, trustworthy, loving care for every pet I’m entrusted with. I’m currently working full time but will be switching to part time come end of August. I’m available for boarding after 5 pm all week and all day throughout the weekend! I live in a small house close to NDSU and love going on walks (especially with your pet)! I provide a safe, clean, stress free environment by following routines, securing hazards, monitoring pets closely, and treating every home with respect and care. I am comfortable administering any medications your pet is on and do not mind allowing pets on furniture but will follow your rules if you do not:)
