About: I have been around dogs for as long as I can remember and I wouldn't have it any other way. My love for dogs is what led me to join my county's 4H dog project in which I had to train my dog in obedience, agility, showmanship, among other things. I was in the dog project from 3rd grade until my senior year and plan on completing the training through Rover as well! I am currently in school and will be completing an internship now until June 12th so my schedule will be all over the place for a bit. However, after June I should be fairly available during the week! My caring for your pet would have to take place in your home, as I currently live in an apartment with my roommate and her dog. I am more than willing to make trips to do what you need me to if I am available!
“Jennifer helped me with my pets by doing a drop in visit while I was away for a long workday. I was so happy with her help. She was timely, sent photos and a video. My dog Neko got a potty break and lots of affection. I’ll definitely book with Jennifer again for drop in visits! She was available on a short notice, timely for our scheduled visit, and has had a lot of experience with pets.”
About: I have had a dog almost my whole life. I’ve also watched my family and friends pets while they have been away a lot through out the past 7 years! I know a lot about the different dog breeds as well, since I am considering owning a dog boarding place one day! As I am preparing for college I am very flexible. I don’t have a set schedule for any day, so I can make sure your pet is taken care of. I make each pet’s care fit their individual needs while keeping them comfortable and safe. I provide plenty of exercise through walks and playtime, but during the summer heat I schedule walks for the early morning or evening when it’s cooler. If it’s too hot outside, I focus on indoor activities and enrichment to keep pets active. I also make sure they have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a calm, caring environment throughout my visit or stay.
“Kathryn is so wonderful at this. She is so good with our dog and communicates so well with us. This is our second time booking with her and she makes the whole process so quick and easy with us, without missing any details. She is very attentive and responsive.”
“Elle gave us such peace of mind by providing feeding visits for our shy kitty, Layla. We had assured Elle that she would not see our kitty but she stayed around quietly and was finally able to lay eyes on her. We were so pleased with Elle’s care.”
“Alyssa and Zachary have been my sitters for about a year now. They have loved my kitty like their own. Unfortunately I am moving out of the area so I won’t be able to use them anymore. I truly do not know how I am going to replace them- they are the only sitters I have ever trusted to take care of Delilah. You will feel comfortable leaving your pets in their care and can trust that they are in the best hands!”
“Julia is very thorough and responsible. She did a great job handling our rescues (who get very nervous). We wanted someone who was a dog lover and could handle their quirks, and that’s what we got!”
“Nicole has been great to work with! She is prompt in responding and addressing all your concerns and needs. I've can even notice my dog is better for me on walks because of the structured care and training that Nicole brings to her work.”
“Julia took care of my two kitties and did a fantastic job. She sent me pictures of my girls at each visit and communicated very well with me. I definitely recommend her to any cat owner!”
“Marissa is so dependable and mature beyond her years. She is great with animals and truly is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to the wellbeing of the furbabies. She went well above and beyond and did so in such a kind way. I highly recommend Marissa to care for your pets.”
“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 I am very comfortable around them! I love to go on walks and play with pups as much as I can! I work from home during the week and leave for meetings or errands occasionally but will be home to keep your pet company! Home most summer weekends and I love to be outside and go on lots of walks. I live in a pet friendly apartment and have a balcony that allows for sunbathing and relaxing! I also have a friendly dog of my own who is a little shy at first but loves to play.
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. Outside of class, 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!
About: I have had cats or dogs my whole life. Have loved animals as long as I can remember. I like animals more then most people. I have had 2 dogs in my life and both have passed away so I'm ready to love on other dogs without the responsibility of ownership I currently work full time but am free most weekends. I'm willing to feed, water and scoop litter. Can let dogs out before and after work some days. Animals seem to like me and I love to give pets and cuddles. I am experienced in health care so could give meds if needed
“Patty was super flexible with some last minute needs, she was a greater communicator, very prompt and had great photos and updates, you can tell she is great with animals and she did wonderful with my dog!”
“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!”

As of September 2026, there are 243 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across West Fargo. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a West Fargo stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
