“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!”


About: Took care of dogs for 5 years, owned a dog as well. Can take your dog for a run as running for me is a lifestyle. Feeding, bathing, playing, administering medicine if necessary I work from home, love staying active by playing, running or walking with dogs. Will monitor the animals to keep them out of trouble and keep them happy! I have a fenced yard, a single home, will take dogs on walks on a leash, without the leash in the backyard. Make sure the surrounding areas are safe for the animals.

“Megan was wonderful and very genuine! As soon as she informed me she was a nurse, I was able to relax knowing my diabetic cat would be well taken care of. Huge plus! She was on time and communicated promptly. 10/10 would recommend.”


“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.”


“We are very pleased with the service we have received from Cairn. She has been prompt, insightful, and very attentive to our (often special) requests. Having two very senior dogs with disabilities, it is a great comfort to know we have someone we can trust to care for our babies like we would. We will definitely use Cairn's services in the future and would recommend her highly.”


About: I’ve always had dogs in the house sense I was a young kid and I’ve learned how to engage with many breeds both big and small, I also loved to engage with cats and see how they play and show affection. I have a full time job from Monday to Friday but I’m always free after 3:30 when I am done with work. After that I have plenty of free time to feed or play with animals. I don’t host any animals but I’m very willing to visit your home and take your animals for walks or playtime and feeding time. I’m mobile and willing to visit and spend time with your pets.

About: The currently puppy dog I have is Tik tok famous! (35k+ followers). In order to have accomplished this, I have had to dedicate a lot of resources into making it happen. With what I've learned to train my dog, I am confident in caring for yours! I will be able to be your dogsitter full time. I am what you call a stay at home dog mom! Your dog will have 24/7 attention when you're with me! I live in an townhome setting, but there is plenty of space for dog love to go around! I do have a female dog so there's always room for a play date.

About: I’ve had cats for over 6 years and due to them, I've never had a dog of my own. However, I have taken care of my friend’s dogs multiple times! I love running with dogs on walks, teaching them tricks, and showering them with love. I’m fine with puppies, however, if they need frequent bathroom breaks, during the weekdays I may not be able to visit as frequently as they might need. I’m currently a graduate student with very flexible hours! Typically I am free in the morning or afternoon most days. My weekends are usually free with a usual trip to the Saturday farmers market when it happens. I regularly take care of my cats which includes feeding them, cleaning their litter boxes, cleaning their areas, brushing them, and generally heeding their every need. I like to make enrichment toys using cardboard boxes/paper towel tubes or by teaching them tricks like spin and high five! When taking dogs out, I try to make sure to wipe their paws down with a wet paper towel prior to entering the house, especially after going in more muddy areas. I like going at the dogs pace on walks whether that be sniffing around a bunch or taking a jog around the neighborhood until they get tired!


About: I am an experienced pet care taker. I had a dog of my own for 7 years before she passed away of a heart condition. Before that my family had dogs and cats growing up. I also consistently foster animals through one of the organizations in town. I work from home and can be pretty flexible about my schedule. When I have a dog I'm usually taking them out over 2-4 hours based on age and need. While away depending on the dogs need I I have dog gates in my home, so they will be restricted to where they are in the house when i'm around and when i'm not around. My place is clean and is a decent size - it is an apartment.

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience in caring for them at all stages. In high school, I trained my own dog in essential skills such as house training, basic commands, and reducing excessive barking. I enjoy staying active and love taking dogs on walks, ensuring they get both exercise and attention. While away at college, I miss the daily companionship of dogs and look forward to providing reliable, caring support for pets and their families. My background in training, lifelong experience, and genuine love for animals allow me to offer dependable and compassionate care. As a senior nursing student at NDSU in my final semester, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I typically finish classes around 1 p.m., leaving afternoons and evenings open for walks, playtime, or drop-in visits. My clinical rotations occur a few times a week and are scheduled well in advance, so I can easily communicate any days I’m unavailable. Weekends are usually open, and if I do have commitments, they’re known well in advance, making it easy to plan around pet care needs. I provide attentive and loving care for pets in their own home, following each pet’s routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner. I ensure their environment stays safe, clean, and comfortable, while giving plenty of attention and monitoring for any signs of concerns. My goal is to help pets feel happy, secure, and well cared for while their owners are away.

About: My name is Sam, and I am a trustworthy, kind, and loving pet sitter! I am new to Rover, and would love to meet your pets! I have been caring for animals of all species for 12+ years, including house sitting, drop in visits, and short/long term care. I have also done extensive volunteer work with animals. If you would like to have more in depth information about my experience, or any questions for me please feel free to reach out! I work as a veterinary hospital receptionist, and will soon be doing vet assistant work too! I have Tuesdays off, and the other 4 days of the week I am off by 5:30 and could do evening visits. Weekends are great, too! I find it very important to gather specific directions from the pet parents regarding routine, and follow it absolutely exactly! I am also happy to assist with basic environmental upkeep that pertains to pet safety.

“Tara does such an amazing job checking in on my two cats! She always gives them lots of love and playtime. I’ve booked with her multiple times and look forward to going so in the future!”


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 both a cat and a dog. My dog is 14 years old and we adopted him as a puppy. My cat is 4 and I’ve had him since he was 4 months old.

I strive to give the best care I can to all animals I encounter! I am in high school and have a part time job so I need to be notified in advance for availability. I can come before school or to exercise or care for your animal. I care for my animals by walking my dog daily and he gets fed twice a day and brushed occasionally. My cat gets free fed and gets his wet food once a day. He doesn’t use the litter box often because he’s an indoor and outdoor cat but when it’s dirty I make sure to clean it thoroughly.
