We recently have started using Rover to assist with dog sitting while we are out of town. I chose Theresa because she has a background of taking care of senior dogs, special needs, and medication administration. She was great with daily updates/feedback. We had been out of town for 3 weeks, she assisted with part of that time. While my dog was in her care she noticed an unusual cough. I was able to set up a veterinarian appointment for the next day. She was happy to take my dog to the vet's office. And called me during the appointment to talk with the veterinarian. Unfortunately, it was not the best news but she was able to administer the new medication, so my dog could be on his way to better health. I appreciate her noticing the issue, and taking care of it. I will definitely be using her again.

Sue is amazing!!! She did a great job looking after our 3 senior dogs. The dogs needed medicines and special wet food, and also needed help getting up and down the stairs, but Sue managed to take great care of them. She had great communication and sent many pictures and videos to keep us updated. She exceeded our expectations! We wouldn't hesitate to have Sue watch our dogs again in the future!

Great with all of our cats and dogs who all have very different personalities to negotiate! Very detail oriented to make sure the animals all get the individual care that they need. Timely and dependable for walks during the day and overnight house sitting. Great communication.

Book her if you can you’ll be happy you did.

Kassi took very good care of our super senior cat, making sure she was warm and able to eat without her younger siblings pushing her around. Kassi sent frequent updates with photos and my three babies trusted her enough to cuddle in her lap and sleep near her. I was nervous about booking someone I did not know to be in my house for a week but Kassi did a great job and I plan to hire her again.

Paloma was an outstanding dog sitter. She was extremely dependable and responsible, treated our home with respect, and truly fell in love with our two large dogs. Her communication was excellent, and it was clear she cared for our dogs as if they were her own. When we returned, our home was left neat and tidy. We would absolutely use Paloma’s services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.

We couldn't have asked for a better experience with Bryce watching Frankie at our home. From the start, we felt completely at ease knowing Frankie was in such capable and caring hands. Bryce was attentive, reliable, and clearly loves what he does. What really stood out was how Bryce went above and beyond basic pet care. Not only did he take excellent care of Frankie, but he also thoughtfully brought in our packages and took out the trash without us even asking. These extra touches made a huge difference and allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our time away without any worries. Frankie was happy and content when we returned home, which speaks volumes about the quality of care Bryce provides. We would absolutely book with Bryce again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and caring in-home pet sitter. Thank you, Bryce!

About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for dogs through my own pets, families I babysit for, neighbors, and volunteer work with the Nebraska Humane Society. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, from energetic puppies to older dogs that need a little extra patience and care. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure pets feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I’m very responsible, attentive, and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to fit pet care easily into my day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week and weekends. I enjoy spending time with animals and am happy to plan my schedule around making sure pets are well cared for, exercised, and comfortable while their owners are away. I care for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable and relaxed. I follow each owner’s instructions closely for feeding, walks, routines, and medications if needed. I always prioritize safety, making sure pets are secure on walks and supervised during play. I’m attentive, responsible, and happy to send updates and photos so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands.

About: I’m a reliable and attentive dog lover based in Omaha, offering a safe, loving environment for your pets while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, and I treat every dog like they’re my own. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and administering basic care. Whether your dog needs lots of activity or just a calm, cozy space, I adjust to their needs. I’m also very responsive and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you always feel at ease while you’re away. ✨ Flexible schedule ✨ Clean, safe environment ✨ Fast communication ✨ Lots of love and attention I’d love to meet you and your pup! I currently work from home remotely Monday through Friday with a lot of flexibility! I have my weekends open completely so maintaining my schedule will be easy to do! I currently take extra precautions with my dog (Kumo) now! Since he is an XL dog, he is always securely harnessed, and I own a muzzle (not that he needs it!) but it’s important to keep others feeling secure around such a large animal. I take him to the dog park as much as possible, when it’s not too cold! He has surgery on his leg when we first rescued him and I care for his long term disability by maintaining a healthy lifestyle for him!

Couldn’t ask for better care of our pups. This was Theresa’s 2nd time staying with our dogs which can be a handful. This trip was for 10 days and it was almost like we were never gone as judged from the dogs’ behavior upon our return. She kept in touch sharing pics of our pups throughout. It’s wonderful traveling knowing your pets are being well cared for!

This is the…I think third? time Kiana has watched my pups, and as always I was very happy! (Sorry, calendars and time are something I struggle with! I’m nearly positive it was the third time). The dogs were happy and healthy when I got home and the house was super clean. I would definitely recommend her!

Sara was wonderful! We appreciated her communication and photo updates while we were away and came home to two happy, healthy dogs and a spotless house. The lead-up to our planned vacation had been a little stressful as one of our dogs had surgery a few weeks before and was still recovering from the surgery and round of antibiotics. Sara did great taking care of her. We would definitely hire Sara again.

Kendall was great petsitting our 3 pups! She stayed overnight, and then during the day she came and went, allowing them out at appropriate times, and stayed awhile at each visit during the daytime visits. She also retrieved packages left by our front door which we appreciated! All in all, a pleasant experience -- including occasional photos to let us know our pups were doing okay. We'd recommend Kendall!
