“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!”
“My first time using Rover, Michelle was very nice, came over to meet us before the visit, and kept me updated. She made me feel much better about having a stranger come over and walk my dog.”
About: I have had pets of my own most of my life and as I get older and travel more I understand how difficult it is to find a trustworthy helper for your pets. I would love to be a responsible person to help families and their 4 legged friends when their own mom/dad can’t be there for them. I work part time in the evenings and would be happy to help during mornings, afternoons, and evenings when I don’t have other commitments. I could do weekly routines or drop in as needed. I do have a fenced in backyard, but would prefer drop in visits in the pets home. I would consider care in my home possibly in some situations and short term basis.
About: From when I was young, I spent a lot of my time outdoors helping on our farm and taking care of family friends and neighbors pets. Ive always had a soft spot for animals my entire life. I’m comfortable with all breeds. I’ve worked with puppies and kitties to senior dogs and cats. Im up for the task for all accommodations. Im strongly confident in grooming, special diet, in training/trained pets and/or medication if needed. Available 7 days of the week. If you need early morning, afternoon, evenings or overnight I can accommodate . Thank you for taking the time to get to know a little bit about me. I look forward to meeting with you and your beloved family member. I’m flexible during the week and on weekends. I do not work outside the home. We like to go for walks rain or shine. I’m comfortable with early or late drops ins. I like to maintain their routine or better while they are with me. Whether thats their mealtimes, outside trips and exercise outside. I have gates inside if needed for safety.
About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember. My family had many hunting dogs when I was growing up and after graduating from college I ended up adopting five of my own dogs. I love and have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. My dogs are all different breeds and sizes and vary in ages. I’ve worked as a groomer, a dog handler and trainer at a boarding facility, and have worked with various pet parents on nutrition and behavior training for their dogs. I am currently finishing my undergraduate degree in Animal Science and am then as well as a new certification in hospice and palliative care for senior and terminally ill dogs. I also recently received my certification from the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers. I eventually would to work with pet parents to help them with making sure their pets live a happy and healthy life. I recently graduated and am going to staying in Fargo until fall of 2026 due to an internship that is all mostly done online so I am pretty open during the week and weekend for whatever you and your pup may need. My dogs all have their own kennel as well as their own dogs beds, although they get to sleep wherever and usually chose to sleep on the couch or my bed with me. I have a dog door for them that goes out to the deck with a large fully fenced in back yard. For food and water I have a dog water dispenser upstairs and downstairs and have a separate space from my dogs with dog beds, a tv, couch, and many toys for dogs staying with me to eat and have a space away from my dogs if they need it. I am willing to do whatever you may need to make things as stress free as possible for both you and your pups.

I have taken care of neighbors pets. I recently rescued a puppy from a farm and organized and found a fur-ever loving home for her. I am still in communication with her owner and get updated pictures. My dream growing up was to have as many dogs like in the movie "101 dalmations".

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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
walkers on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
