About: I have had pets my entire life and have taken care of family friends dogs before. My dogs are rescues, so that is training on its own. When family is out of town I take care of theirs, that includes my aunt and uncle, grandparents, and more. I'm a pretty flexible person, I like being up early and I don't mind driving to come take care of animals. I do work a lot, meaning i'll be out and about and am always down to come see some animals. I also love taking animals on a good walk!! I am huge on love and attention, making sure that they are well kept. My dogs are a little too loved, they really love their treats. But I am respectful of all owners rules for their animals and will take care of them to the best of my ability as if the owners weren't gone.

About: I have always had pets in my life. I was raised with dogs and cats, and I currently have 1 dog and 3 cats! I was a Foster Parent for Underdogs Rescue from 2016-2021 and specialized in medically fragile and behaviorally challenged dogs. I moved to Omaha from Denver and had to take a hiatus from Rover to move and settle. My services are dog walking, check ins, and house sitting. I have boarded dogs before (as you can see from my reviews) but have decided not to do this again to offer stability for my cats. I love sending photos of pets when they’re in my care. Please check out my photos and see how the pets become my family! I always appreciate a list of do’s and don’ts, reminders, emergency contacts, etc. There is no such thing as too much communication for me. I am very good at multi-tasking and prioritizing. My work is very flexible and I am able to maintain consistency with offering support to pets in other's environment. I treat other's pets like they were my own. I love them all and will treat them with respect and kindness. I love taking pictures and keeping parent's apprised of how they are doing in my care.

About: My parents would take me to their friends houses growing up and if they couldn’t find me they would look for the family pet and know that’s where I would probably be. I grew up riding horses, have dogs, and going to families farms. I have such a love for animals and understand the deep bond and support they provide people. I dog sit rescues who need some time warming up to very energetic pups! I feel really comfortable with all sizes and kinds of dogs and take feedback about how to support individual animals seriously! I work in schools and am off between 3 - 5 weekly. Fridays I have a lot of flexibility and can work from home which makes walks, letting pups out, or a check-in easy on Fridays! I usually go to homes! If you’re comfortable with your pup staying with me I have a very friendly love pup named Frederick who would love to be your pups best friend!

About: I care deeply about dogs and their welfare, including love and exercise. My dog Mitzy also loves other dogs and is a gentle companion; she loves to play and make friends. I work from home, so I am available at all times. I will spend time with your pup, and my own dog is very loving. I have a fenced backyard and we have a huge neighborhood area exclusively to us homeowners the size of a football field. Also there are to parks within 5 minutes.

About: I’ve taken care of my own family dogs and dog and watched for friends and families. I am a college student who is trying to make some extra cash with her own one year old Dalmatian! I am available on weekends any time of day and mornings during the week day between 8-11am and then after 6pm on week days as well! I would like you to know I will care for your pet like my own. Meeting there exercise needs, keeping them safe on walks and comfortable when staying in my home

About: I’ve taken care of my pets and family and friends pets for the last 10 years. Everything from walking to feeding and bathing them. I have also been trusted yo dog sit at their house for 5+ days before. I am currently a full time student in Lincoln but still have plenty of time to hang out with your pets and keep them active by going on walks!

About: Hi! My name is Lacey and I’m a dog lover. I grew up on a farm and have been around animals my entire life. I currently have a 16 year old Pomeranian, I’ve had her since she was 8 weeks old. I’m comfortable with young and old, small and large- I love them all. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I am able to check on your pets throughout the day, take them on walks, stop by for potty breaks or watch them at your house overnight. I can also help with extra tasks while you’re away- getting mail, watering plants, bathing pets, light housekeeping…. Etc. While you’re out, I will ensure your pet(s) are happy, loved and well taken care of. I will stick to their routine as closely as possible and ensure all of their needs are beyond met!

About: Hey there! 🐾 If there's one thing I'm truly passionate about, it's our furry companions! I'm currently studying to become a vet tech and have spent the last year working at a doggy daycare as a sitter and washer—basically living my dream surrounded by wagging tails and wet noses. Recently, I welcomed two adorable pups into my life: George and Gracie. They’ve added so much joy (and chaos!) to my days and constantly remind me how much love dogs bring into our lives. Caring for other people’s pets—whether it’s for a quick potty break, some playtime, or while their humans are away—makes me genuinely happy. I believe dogs are more than pets; they’re family with feelings, personalities, and a whole lot of love to give. If your pup needs some TLC or a walk filled with sniffing adventures, I’d love to help out. Let’s make tails wag together! 🐶❤️ Thanks for considering me! Well, you see, I'm more of a laid-back kind of dog. My daily routine revolves around napping, eating, and the occasional leisurely stroll around the yard. My human takes care of the rest, including making sure I get my meds for cushing's disease. So, to answer your question, pet care fits into my routine seamlessly because, well, I don't do much myself! Woof! As a pet caregiver, I provide walking and house sitting services tailored to the needs of both the pet and the owner. For walking, I ensure that each stroll is enjoyable and beneficial for the pet, whether it's a brisk walk for an energetic pup or a leisurely stroll for a senior dog. During house sitting, I maintain a safe and comfortable environment for the pets in their own home, following any specific routines or instructions provided by the owner. Additionally, I offer companionship and affection to keep the pets happy and content while their owners are away.

About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was able to walk. I have been dog sitting for family and friends for about 10 years now, and have a career as an animal Behaviorist at an animal shelter. I have a love for all animals, excluding the creepy crawlies I currently work full time in omaha, but can let pets out Sunday-Thursday at 7am and could let them back out at 6pm and stay the night. My Fridays and Saturdays are free and can hang out with them as much as possible. I currently have in my home a 7 year old diabetic husky who has to have is meds at exact times and exact dosages. I also have a wolf hybrid with tons of energy and needs constant enrichment and stimulation.

About: I love spending time with animals and getting to meet all different types of breeds while getting to watch them and care for them at the same time. I am going to school part time right now and have lots of extra free time spent at home for taking care of pets. I am okay with having pets in my home as well as traveling to others homes to care for the animals. I treat the animals i watch as if they are my own making sure i tend to their needs and make them feel safe and cared for!

“Libby was the best. So thrilled a friend told me to book her. She’s Hope’s new best friend. Libby is so sweet and caring. I knew we were in great hands. We will be booking again soon!!”


About: I’ve been pet sitting since 2018 and have loved every minute of it! Routine is important to me and I make it a point to keep your pets on schedule, as being away from Mom/Dad is hard enough on them I work part time from home so I’m available often and without too much notice. I’m very adaptable and will adopt whatever schedule you need. I’ll keep a good eye on them! I love the company of animals and love to have them as close as they like as well.

About: I’ve had animals my entire life and I love taking care of them and making them happy! I’d be the happiest in a job I could be working with animals. That is definitely my goal in our life! I do work a full time and part time job but I would love nothing more than to spend my free time with animals of any kind :) I don’t board dogs or watch them in my home. I crate my dogs when I am not home, but they don’t need it either way. They honestly enjoy their crate, it’s their safe space

About: Need a great dog sitter or dog walker? Look no further! Send me a message :). I’m willing to do long or short term dog sits in the comfort of your dog’s home. I’ve previously volunteered at animal rescue sanctuaries in Hawaii and Ireland because I really have a passion for animals. I’ve taken care of dogs since I was about 5 years old. My grandma raised dogs so I happily helped out all the time and quickly grew to passionately love dogs. I began my own dog grooming business which I did for a few years, and after that, I dog sat for friends and family. Recently I helped watch a farmers dogs for a month which included walking the 5 of them, feeding them, bathing them, and watering them. I dog sat two French Bulldogs for 2 weeks, everything went great and they loved their walks to the beach and bath time. I also dog sat a dog for a month and everything went great, I’m happy to give you any contact numbers if you’d like to speak with any previous people I’ve dog sat for. I’m very responsible and pay attention to detail to ensure your dog is safe and happy in my care. Send me a message to talk about time/dates but I am pretty flexible :). I am not in school so I’ll have plenty of free time to spend with your dog/cat! What better job than playing with dogs/cats. In my clients home I will be considerate and follow your rules and preferences. I will keep the place tidy and clean and put things back where I found them, such as leash etc.

About: I have had a personal doggy care system for about 6 years. I tend to do a lot of house sitting because I want your animal to feel safe and comfortable in their environment. My business primarily has been through word of mouth but I have taken care of little fur babies from old to young, I also can give meds to any dog, no matter the issues; I’ve worked with epileptic dogs to dogs with heart issues, truly I don’t mind! I’ve worked with anxious dogs/cats to aggressive dogs/cats. I am a dog nanny to my sisters 3 dogs now, they brighten my day, daily! I absolutely love animals and hope to help yours! I work full time from home with a very flexible schedule. I am able to let out/walk your little ones at any and all times of the day. I don’t need much heads up, as long as I can get there, I’m able to stay as long or take them to parks, on car rides, etc. I have a pretty big fenced yard and 3 friendly dogs at home, one small and two medium, all very friendly to keep any fur baby company. I am comfortable house sitting as well, I also can crate if needed. I believe in providing comfort and creating a low stress environment for your baby!

Cece S.
“I met Cece through an animal rescue group. Cece is the foster mom of my adopted pup, Ellie. Ellie was given up for euthanasia in 2020 due to severe allergies and related medical complications. Cece and her husband took Ellie in as a foster and tended to her medical needs for several months. She is currently thriving! I continue to stay in close contact with Cece. As a first-time dog owner, she has been a wonderful support and resource for me over the past year. Cece is an experienced animal caregiver and animal lover. Whenever I am out of town, Cece and her family (two-legged and four-legged, alike!) openly welcome Ellie back into their home and love on her fiercely! I always know she is in the best of hands. Animal people don't come any better than Cece!!!”
