“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!”
“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!”
“Always on time down to the minute. Medical training and previous veterinarian. I feel my puppy is in good hands, and never i have to worry about my puppy's safety. She's beyond just a person who walks my dog. Kish has built a relationship with my dog. My dog is always happy to know she's going on a walk with her. To my dog she's just another family member at this point. Would have anybody body else walk my dog at this point.”
About: I’ve had experience taking care of dogs pretty much my whole life, so I’m really comfortable around all kinds of personalities and needs. I’ve also spent a lot of time staying overnight with dogs and watching them for different lengths of time, whether it’s just a day or longer trips. I’m used to handling feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and making sure they feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. I’m a teacher during the school year, so my weekdays are a bit more structured since I’m working from about 8–4. In the summer, I switch things up and work as a nanny three days a week. I’m still available on weekends year-round, and during the school year I can be available outside of my work hours on weekdays as well. I really strive to be a safe, calm place for dogs, no matter their personality or needs. I’m comfortable around all types—whether they’re super energetic, shy, or need a little extra patience. I’m also very good at following whatever routine or plan you already have set up for your pet, so they can stay comfortable and stick to what they’re used to while you’re away.
About: I’ve got quite a bit of experience with all sorts of animals! I grew up with two dogs, one of which had diabetes and required me to give them insulin occasionally, so I’m comfortable being around dogs of all shapes and sizes. I currently have four cats of my own, each with their own personality and temperament, so taking care of cats should be no problem. I love spending time with animals—I will give them all the scratchies and probably send too many pictures, but they will be adored and taken care of while you’re away! I currently work part-time for the City of Fargo and am looking to fill in some free time by hanging out with some animals around the city of Fargo. My shifts are usually short, so I’m able to check on your pets before work, after work, and some times in the middle of the day. I am trustworthy and reliable! While visiting pets in your home, I’ll spend time giving them all the attention and all the pets. And after my visit, I’ll take care to ensure that your house is locked and left with the same care I found it.
“Adam did an awesome job with our dogs! Scarlett doesn’t always have the best social skills with new people, but he handled her like a pro and she warmed up fast. Luka had a rough start not feeling the best, but Adam took it all in stride and kept both dogs safe and happy. This walk was a prep for upcoming house sitting, and it gave us a lot of confidence knowing he communicates well, goes above and beyond, and really cares. Highly recommend!”
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!
“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: From 8 weeks old to senior pups, I’ve seen it all! Whether it’s basic canine knowledge, walking, bathing, medication administration, or pet snuggles, I’ve got you covered! I work full time M,W,Th,F (every Tuesday off) from 8:00am-5:00pm. With 2 dogs of my own (cavalier/shih tzu/bichon (17lb) and golden retriever (60+ pounds), we have a timely feeding and walking routine. Your pup will fit right in! With a two story house, patio, and open yard with a walking path nearby, the opportunities are endless for your pups needs to be met! Your pet can snuggle up on the furniture and/or bed or be crated if that is your preference.
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 a well trained puppy and have been working with my roommates dogs and cats for the last four years. I love to care for the fur babies. I work part-time at CCRI on weekdays so i can make ample time for your pet's routine. I can stop by as much as needed. I have a fenced backyard, a super friendly puppy and can have extra kennel if you need your dog to sleep in a crate/ kennel
About: I’ve known animals for as long as I’ve known to breathe. From the time I could walk, I was playing and interacting with my family pets. From loving on our family black labs and cats growing up, volunteering at my hometowns local shelter, to tending to family and friends’ cats and dogs, animals have always been a passion of mine! I am available before 7:15 am, and after 3:30 pm. My work does not provide flexible scheduling so I do not have an extended lunch hour. I would only be able to check in on your fur baby twice a day. Weekends I am free all day, and could check in 3 times if needed I will care for animals in your home by being gentle, patient, engaging, nurturing , and playful. I will make sure they get lots of play and stimulation, love, and treats. 😋
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: 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. Let’s talk and figure out a schedule that works for you! At my own house, I have a medium yard, and live in a safe neighbor hood. At your house, I will do my best to care for your pet in the routine that they are used to.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of August 2026, there are 232 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Wild Rice. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Wild Rice. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Wild Rice.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.
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.
Every walker 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 .
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 dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
