“Elizabeth is calm and perfect for our senior chihuahuas. So eternally grateful to have found her a few years back and have complete peace and confidence leaving them in her care.”
“This was our very first Rover experience and we couldn’t have been happier leaving our little guy with Yuki! She has a great set up for the dogs with a fenced in area and took them out to play so often. She also sent lots of pictures and messages for us to keep up on how things were going. We will definitely be back to her place next time we need a home away from home for our pup!”
About: I've worked as an assistant dog trainer for over three years and I have a passion for working with dogs and understanding dog behavior. I've raised shelter dogs since I was five years old, have professional experience with many other species such as small animals and cattle. I also have a degree in clicker training from Karen Pryor Academy. I'll also work with aggressive dogs and dogs with behavior issues, even if other sitters have rejected them. I set my own hours, so I can work my routine around the needs of your dog. I am looking forward to meeting your dog! I believe in positive reinforment methods with a focus on understanding dog behavior to create the best life possible for the both dog and owner.
“Hayley was super sweet and took such good care of my dogs she sent lots of pics of them and they looked so happy going on lots of walks and having cuddle time…she was very understanding when I ran a bit late for pickup they also loved her dog Apollo ♥️Hayley is a wonderful sitter and I will definitely rebook”
“Erin is wonderful to work with, she is very communicative during the whole process and asks all the right questions. Olive had a great stay, and got plenty of love and attention during her stay!”
About: Having grown up with dogs, I understand how important they are as family members. As a graduate student living away from home, I especially miss spending time with my family's dogs. I’ve also cared for my friends’ dogs, so I know every pet has their own personality and routine. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll make sure they get all the walks, playtime, cuddles, love, and attention they need while following their regular routine to help them feel safe, comfortable, and happy! As a graduate student, I have class Tuesday and Thursday during the middle of the day and Monday evenings, so I am unavailable during those times. I also am an TA for a lab that runs 1pm-8pm Tuesday and Wednesday. Outside of class and lab, my weekday schedule is flexible. I have the most availability on weekends, and my evenings are almost always free for walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care. I care for every pet as if they were my own, whether they are staying in my home or I am caring for them in yours. I live in a cozy apartment, but I’m surrounded by many dog-friendly areas and parks, which makes it easy to provide plenty of walks, exercise, and outdoor time. I always make sure pets receive the love, attention, playtime, and cuddles they need while following their normal routines to help them feel comfortable and secure. I also love sending updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away!
“Ella is fantastic! I needed care for our three dogs on relatively last minute over Christmas break. She responded quickly to all communication. She was very welcoming and gave updates during our girl’s stay. I knew our girls were in great hands. I would recommend Ella to care for your fur baby. I will gladly bring our girls back when we need care in the future.”
About: I'm a PE teacher so I love to go for walks and play with your furry friend. I'm also available to take your dog on a light jog or hike. I've had dogs most of my life and love meeting new furry friends. I've had dogs as small as 5lbs and as big as 85lbs. I'm comfortable with all types, sizes, and breeds. I am capable of following any special instructions/ medications/diets as well. I have higher availability during school breaks but can still make it work during the regular work week. I will adjust time any special instructions you may have for your pet. Need a last minute sit? Just shoot me a message, I can't wait to meet you and your furry friend.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Fargo
I highly recommend Julia! I was nervous about leaving my dog for an extended period of time because she is a senior and needs a little extra care and attention. Julia immediately put my mind at ease. She kept me updated every day and sent pictures, which I really appreciated. It was so reassuring to see that she was happy, comfortable, and being well cared for while I was away. Knowing he was in good hands allowed me to relax and enjoy my time away without worrying about her. Julia was dependable, caring, and wonderful with my dog. I would absolutely trust her to care for her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet like their own.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
96% of sitters in West Fargo can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their West Fargo home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your West Fargo.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your West Fargo sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in ND ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
