“Kendra did a great job with our dog Winter, who can be a little nervous in new situations. She communicated well and sent frequent updates and pictures. She even left a custom dog treat and note for Winter. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Kimmie was wonderful!!! A big storm came through on one of the nights Kimmie was watching our dogs and when the storm sirens went off in the middle of the night Kimmie made sure the dogs were safe in our (unfinished) basement. She went above and beyond to stay with them to keep them calm, so that was a big plus! She did a great job communicating with us when we were away and our dogs seemed to thrive with her. That’s even more notable considering our younger dog lost his sight a few weeks prior to the dates we used her, and she navigated that unexpected concern beautifully!”
“Kelsi has been so good with our two dogs! She spends time outside with them and she treats them like her own. She sends pics of them, which is always nice to see! Thank you, Kelsi, for another great stay!”

“Lizzie did a great job with our hyper 85lb dog as well as our unique personality daschund. Went on potty breaks as well as LONG walks. Appreciated! Lots of updates and photos. Recommended!”
“This is my first time using Rover and I found the absolute best person for my two senior dogs, Archie and Mica! Courtney took amazing care of them while I was in Europe for almost two weeks. We met twice before her in-house stay and she asked all the right questions. She shared sweet photos of them while I was away and cuddled with them during a big storm. I found them happy and healthy when I returned. Courtney also took great care of my home too. She is professional, attentive, responsible, and extremely trustworthy. I highly recommend Courtney and will definitely book with her again when I travel.”
About: Hi! I’m Nicole and I live in the Fargo area. I grew up having a dog and love to be around animals! I have loved pet sitting and dog walking for people in the past! I am very available during the summer and looking for opportunities to fill my time with some amazing pets! I am also available after 3ish during the school year! I currently live in an apartment and am unable to have pets so I look forward to spending time loving on all the dogs and cats possible!
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.
“Joanne did a wonderful job taking care of my Yorkie, guinea pigs, and plant while we were away. I've had a rough time in the past trying to find a sitter that would also take care of my guinea pigs and when I saw that Joanne had experience with small animals, I knew that she was the one! I really appreciated how communicative Joanne was and all of the picture updates that she sent daily. I always worry about my fur babies while I'm away and Joanne really helped keep my mind at ease with her care and attentiveness.”
“Annika was amazing with our dogs! Our one dog usually has behaviors while we are gone for extended amounts of time. He didn't have any destructive behaviors while she watched them! First time that has ever happened! She responds to your messages right away and has great communication! She goes above and beyond, our place was cleaner when we got back than before we left. We would love to have her watch our babies again!! 10/10”
About: I have grown up with cats and dogs in the house since I was young. I currently have two cats, a dog, and a bearded dragon! I have experience raising animals of all kinds and all ages. From scooping litter, to teaching tricks, I have always loved animals and hope to be there for your pets every need! I am happily available at any time to help with your pet care needs! If any scheduling conflicts should occur, I will readily prioritize your animals care. I create a loving energy and environment for my animals. They are fed regular, and healthy diets to keep them smiling! I stay on top of grooming and cleaning to keep the home warm and comfortable. In the event that my animals are experiencing any sickness, like ear infection or upset tummy, I have no issue nurturing them to health through veterinarian approved medicines and treatments. My animals receive the most quality love and care through playtime, cuddles, healthy lifestyle, and much much more!
“Thank you, Brooke, for taking such great care of Archie! He’s full of energy and can be a handful, but you handled him with patience and care. I really appreciated the updates and felt at ease knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Wyneta was the best! I had to leave town for the holidays and left my two cats behind. I was nervous to ask someone to help me on Christmas, but luckily for my fur babies and I, she was available. She was very thorough and kept me updated constantly. She even made them some salmon to add to their meals :) I highly recommend her for dog or cat needs”
