“Lauren is great! She’s been my go to for my dogs since I moved to Dilworth. She honors her commitments, treats my pups as her own and always sends the cutest photos to me while I’m not home. Thank you, Lauren! Me and my kiddos appreciate you!”



“Crystal is just fantastic! She is prompt, friendly, and truly understands critters. She’s been great to communicate with, and my animals love her. I’m thrilled to have such a great person for drop-in visits, and will definitely hire her for housesitting as well!”


“Cheryl was a dream and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my fur children were being well taken care of. I appreciated the wonderful report card narratives and pictures. My cats even came out to visit with Cheryl when she stopped to give cuddles to the pups.”


“Our regular cat sitter had a last minute change of plans so I reached out to Maria. We have 5 cats with different needs and she did a fantastic job! She let us know about accidents and provided updates with pictures. We would absolutely go with her again, since she handled everything so well.”


“Grace was able to handle all 3 of my boys, even my sassy old man. She sent pictures & updates throughout the weekend, which I greatly appreciated!”



“James did a great job with our dog. Wally loved him and had a lot of fun. James showed up on time everyday and Wally got a lot of exercise. Would highly recommend James for your pets, and we intend to use James again.”


“Jennifer was absolutely phenomenal! She checked in frequently, sent lots of photos and videos playing, and was so respectful of our space!! Jennifer asked great questions when she had any. She was incredibly reliable and willing to do whatever I needed while I was gone! Highly recommend Jennifer - your four legged friends will thank you!!!”


About: I have lived with animals, my whole life! When I was younger, I used to dog and horse it for a farm! I would also house it for somebody with many cats! I love all animals, big and small! I am currently working part-time and I am a college graduate student! During the week I don’t really have anything going on unless I’m in school hours! I will not be able to board any pets at my house, but I am willing to house it for others! I used to do it a lot as a child and I’m very comfortable with it!

About: Hello! My name is Morgan, and I'm a dedicated and experienced pet sitter specializing in the care of small to medium sized dogs. Having grown up caring for two of my own Miniature Schnauzers from puppy-hood to their senior years, I have a deep personal understanding of their unique needs, energy levels, and personalities. This hands-on experience extends to a wide range of small breeds, and I'm passionate about providing attentive, knowledgeable care for every furry friend I meet. I currently do not have a part or full time job and am searching. In the mean time, I'm available most weekdays and some weekends to care for your pets! When your pet is in my care, my top priority is their safety, happiness, and your peace of mind. I know how important it is to stay connected, which is why you can expect prompt communication from me. For every drop in visit or walk, I'll send a Rover card update complete with a GPS map of our walk, potty break information, and of course great photos of your pet. For house sitting stays, I provide detailed morning and evening updates so you can relax on your trip knowing your companion is thriving. I'm diligent about following all feeding schedules, medication needs, and any specific household rules you have.

“Thanks again for a wonderful job!”


“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 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.

“Jess goes the extra step to take care of our dogs while we are away. Our dogs love her and so do we!”


About: From sassy kitties to laid back pups, let me be your pets' new buddy! Having raised many pets and a few humans (they're grown now, no kids in the house) I am willing and able to provide the care and comfort your companionA needs. All pet personalities welcome, let me know how to cater to you! As a nurse, I only work 3 days a week. I have tons of free time to assist with your family's needs. Let me know how I can help. I have a nice apartment midtown Fargo with many walking paths. (No pets or children in the house). I am able and excited to transport your fur baby in my vehicle for walks, park excursions, etc. Whether it's your house or mine, the care and comfort of your pet is my priority.

About: I grew up with Boxers and Boston Terriers. My parents still have 3 dogs who I call my “little brothers” While my job and small apartment don’t allow me for a dog of my own at the moment, I would love to share my love for animals with your four legged family members! I am currently a teacher on summer vacation so I have a lot of free time during the weekdays. I am available for walks or potty breaks almost almost a daily at the moment during the school year I coach in the fall and in the spring, but have availability on the weekends. I am a trustworthy and active Individual. I would love to take your dog on walks or potty breaks. I am currently single and have a lot of freedom in my schedule to make sure the needs of your pet are being met.

“Michelle is great. She was able to check in on Paisley several times when we needed her in a pinch. She was very punctual and Paisley loved making a new friend. We will definitely contact Michelle again to check in on Paisley.”


About: I have had dogs my whole life, and worked professionally with pets at a doggy daycare for just under a year! I've helped raise all of my family's dogs (lab crosses and doodles) including crate training. I love dogs of all ages and am comfortable working with all sizes. I'm an RA and taking a full course load, class is done at 3, I'm available late Wednesday nights (after around 8:30) and after 4 Mondays and Fridays. Tuesdays after around 2 are a possibility, but I am busy with RA Duties Thursday nights and can't leave campus. all but one weekend this semester are available I will maintain as much of your normal routine in your house as I can. I totally understand and anticipate pets being at least a little wary of new people and will gladly set up time to meet and get comfortable as needed. I will bring my own food if I am staying in your house and keep it tidy. I will make work any walk/ play/ training routines, expectations, and goals you have to the best of my ability. Do know, however, I will spend a fairly large portion of my day on campus either attending class or working on Residence Life obligations. I will still be reachable and flexible to an extent and exact timing can be discussed on a case by case basis, but I won't be in your house 24/7 and if your dog isn't used to spending any time alone or in a crate, I may not be the best fit for you. I also have breaks throughout most of my days that will allow for quick potty/ play breaks but that would look more like 30-40 minutes here and there, more extensive time will be in the evenings/nights.

About: I have experience caring for a wide variety of dog breeds and temperaments. I'm currently studying Animal Science in college, which will deepened my knowledge of animal behavior and care. My passion for animals drives everything I do, and I bring both hands-on experience and academic insight to every pet I look after. I'm currently available full-time for pet sitting and have a flexible schedule. I can accommodate daytime visits, weekends, and even last-minute bookings. Since I’m not working another job right now, I’m able to give your pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I prioritize each pet’s safety and well-being as if they were my own. I take the time to understand each animal’s specific needs, routines, and any health concerns. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and handling emergency situations calmly and responsibly. I always keep a close eye on pets during walks and playtime, and I never leave animals unattended in unsafe situations. Your pet's safety is my top priority.

“It was our first time using rover. Pilar was great. Reponded quickly on short notice. Max enjoyed the meet and greet with her and Max the day before. Great communication, sent pictures, and max really seemed to enjoy his drop in visits. Definitely made us feel comfortable leaving him home while we were out of town for the day. Highly recommended. We will definitely book with Pilar again.”



“My pup was very happy to have her, and very comfortable with her. Having Elizabeth check in on my pup during the day made me feel at ease! Will have her again in the future!”
