“Alyssa was very professional and we didn’t have to worry about leaving our dog at home knowing she’d drop by for all the usuals plus feeding her evening meal and playing ball with her. Well, our dog likes to keep the ball so not much playing probably happened! But we’re all happy she stopped by today.”


“We were so happy with Maddie! She took amazing care of Onyx our black lab and Nia our cat while we were away, sending daily updates with pictures and letting us know how they were doing. Onyx and Nia seemed completely relaxed and happy when we got back, which is the best indication of how well they were treated. Maddie is clearly passionate about animals and we felt completely confident leaving our furry family member in her hands. We will definitely be booking them again for our next trip!”


About: New to Rover, but I've been raising dogs all my life! My family had Labradors and Boxers, I adopted a Basset, and I married someone who loves her Maltese. My wife and I have a spacious house, a large yard, a covered deck, lots of napping couches, and several dog gates so we can give your pup as much supervision as you'd like. We can do meet and greet, a house tour, and an introduction to our own dogs, George (our Basset) and Milo (our Maltese). I work from home, which means your dog's schedule gets followed no matter what. I can easily accommodate frequent potty breaks, play sessions, cuddle times, feeding schedules, and walks. Our dogs (George and Milo) get time outside in the yard at each meal, at least one walk a day in the evening, and play time whenever they want it. Depending on your pup, they're welcome to join those routines, or do more or less. We have our home very intentionally set up for dogs. My work-from-home station consists of just a laptop, which means I can work from whatever room in our home makes your furry friend feel most at home. Our dog gates let pups roam while ensuring we can keep an eye on them. Our own dogs (George and Milo) are social but also independent, so if your pup prefers one on one time with humans, we'll make sure he or she gets it.

About: I grew up around many dogs and when the opportunity came to be a kennel worker in high school, I took it! Every day before school and every other weekend for 6 months straight I would clean kennels, walk, and feed dogs for the boarding dogs. Some of these dogs would be boarded for over a week at a time, and watching them get more and more excited by the day as I walked in the door was an amazing feeling. I then went on to try out for the veterinary technology program at Northeast community college for a semester but life took a different turn and I had to move back home As a bartender, I work weekend and two weekdays. On those weekdays I don’t have to leave for work until 3pm. This gives me three full days off and 4 mornings and afternoons to take care of animals practically on call! I have two very well trained Old English bulldogs that are 8 and 13 months old. I trained them to want to behave purely because they could see it made me happy and they would get a treat. With there breed, they are very allergy prone so I try to make homemade treats for them as often as possible, and won’t feed them anything that isn’t 100% dog safe. We go for walks every day and although they are large dogs, with the right leash even if they pull if they see a bunny from time to time I don’t have to worry about them dragging me

About: I have taken care of dogs most of life, six dogs in total. Most recently I had a German Shepherd, Australian Cattle dog mix name Waylan. I started with Rover over 4 years ago and have sat for over 50 clients and 82 pets. To name a few I have taken care of Pit Terriers, Bull Terriers, Australian Cattle Dogs, Great Dane, Bearded Collies, Bearded Dragon, Mice, Hedgehog, and many cats. All from different families and all in-home stays. I consider myself an observant and knowledgeable animal lover. When it comes to special skills, I have experience training and administering medicine. My work schedule is M-F, 8:30 to 5pm in-office. Outside of those hours, I spend with your pets. Despite working full-time in-office, the happiness and safety of your pets is still my number one concern. I am looking forward to the care and attention I can give your pets in their home environment. I have experience taking care of dogs on farms, in apartments, and town homes.

“Rebecca has cared for our dog in our home several times. We often have to make trips for our son's sporting events. Rebecca knows our dog's routine and things go smoothly. We are always updated and feel confident that our Bailey is in good hands. I don't worry and that means a lot. Thanks Rebecca!”


“Needed Lacey in a pinch/last minute and she was right there when we needed her! Appreciated her flexibility and willingness to help us in a time of need. If that wasn’t enough, she was SO good with our puppy with minimal guidance beforehand. We will definitely be rebooking with Lacey again-Highly recommend!”


About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs, chickens, and other farm animals. I grew up with a springer spaniel and now have a sweet (and very spoiled!) 3-year-old boykin spaniel of my own. I’m passionate about giving pets the same love and attention I give my own—daily walks, belly rubs, treats, and all! I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! I'm currently finishing my Doctorate of Chiropractic degree and am in the office just three days a week, which leaves me with plenty of flexible time to dedicate to caring for your pets. Dog sitting fits perfectly into my routine—I love spending my days off going on walks and giving snuggles. As a pet owner myself, I understand just how much your pets mean to you—they're truly family. When caring for your pets in your home, I’ll treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I know every animal has their own unique personality and needs, and I’ll take the time to get to know what makes your pet feel comfortable and happy. I’ll carefully follow all your instructions, from feeding schedules to favorite walking routes, so you can feel confident they’re in good hands while you’re away.

About: I own 2 dogs and both are rescues. I know what it means to take care of new and even sometimes difficult dogs. It would be an honor to help you care for yours. I am currently working part-time and looking for side jobs so I would have plenty of time to care for your animals while you are away. I can come to your home and care for your dogs in whatever way you prefer me to.

We make sure they are feed on time, provide outdoor walks/activities. Plenty of potty breaks and show them the love they need while their owner is away.

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life all breeds of them I have also had a kitten, I love animals I would like to put your mind at ease while I take of you pet because I know they apart of your family. I have some extra time I can spare into taking care of pets during the week. This is important to me to do a good job for you. I will make sure they go potty when needed, well fed, and plenty of play time in between. Exercise is a very good part their day so they aren't so bored.

About: We have always had animals growing up. There has never been a time in my life where I was not caring for an animal. I’ve had experience with so many breeds, both big and small, young and old! My wife and I frequently care for others’ animals as if they were our own because we just love animals as much as they love us! My wife and I are a pet watching duo! She works part time and I work full time, but between our schedules there is always room in morning, midday, and evening! We understand that animals all have different personalities so we approach with caution and confidence, and establish trust in the pet before anything else! From there, it just takes either affection, treats, proper attention to detail, and understanding to give the best care.

About: I’ve worked at a doggy boarding and daycare facility for about a year . I’ve been volunteering at my local animal shelter with my mom.

About: Loving dog and human mom who has taken care of dogs, birds, cats, and Guinea pigs since age 10. Wanting to open our home to your pets when you have a weekend away. Will provide love and treats 🙃 Currently available for boarding Friday-Sundays, and holiday weekends. Available for other random days upon request. Our goal is to provide 24/7 care when you are away :) We will give your pet daily attention and love while sticking to their personal schedule. Daily walks with our own pup will be provided.

About: I have taken care of cows, sheep, and a dog or two on my family’s farm. I moved to Fremont, NE for my job but miss getting a lot of time outside and working with animals. I can’t have a dog at my apartment and am looking for some emotional and physical exercise with man’s (and woman’s) best friend. I’m willing to walk in rain, snow or shine. I am willing to learn and am capable of following detailed instructions. This profile requires a certain amount of words but I hope you would be willing to give me a chance for my actions to speak louder than my words. I currently work a 8-4 job with some travel. For the summer I am unavailable on the weekends but will be back with a more available schedule this fall. I want the pet to feel comfortable around me. The more information you can share about your environment/the pet’s regular environment the better for me.

Alex & Sarah S.
“Sarah and Alex were amazing with our dog. She's pretty shy and really just loves hanging out indoors, so we’re always a bit nervous leaving her with new people. But they made her feel right at home from the start. They sent us updates without us even having to ask, notes about how she was settling in and a bunch of pics of her napping by their window and getting all cozy on her blanket. They even asked us about her evening routine to make sure she stayed comfortable. We’ve already talked with them about our next trip. Couldn’t recommend them more!”

Whether it be the pets of family, friends, or his own, animals gravitate towards him & are comfortable placing their trust in him.
