“Tracy was a great dog and house sitter. She kept me updated on a regular basis, and I felt like our pup was in good hands. Really appreciate the peace of mind while we had to be away.”
About: I have always loved animals, I have grown up with dogs, and I also have 2 cats! Although I don’t often pet sit, I have a lot of experience caring for dogs/cats throughout my own life and assure you I will treat your pets as one of my own! All of my pets have been rescues and some have had disabilities, so I have experience in navigating their behavior and mistrust towards others. My animals are like family to me and I know how nerve racking it is leaving them, so I promise to give your pets the best care while you are gone 💖 I’m currently a student on summer break working part-time! Because my schedule is flexible, there are times I can be available for last minute requests. I am very reliable and dependable! My pets are treated like family and are very well taken care of. My dog is a senior Bechon who has separation anxiety and cannot be alone for long periods of time. Hence, we frequently take him on walks or car rides. One of my cats requires daily medicine and the other is full of energy and loves to play. They are constantly near us to snuggle or receive our attention
“Savannah did a great job with my two large dogs. I was out of the state for a week and didn’t have to worry about the girls at all. I will be using her again in the near future and would recommend her to anybody for housesitting and pet sitting.”
About: Experienced with dogs and cats; emergency animal hospital background. Pet CPR/First Aid certified. Skilled, calm, reliable and attentive to your pets normal routine. Whether it's walks, drop-ins, or house sitting. I am also comfortable giving medications and following veterinary instructions closely. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, and can accommodate overnight stays when needed. With my background in an emergency animal hospital, I’m used to structured routines and can easily adapt to your pet’s specific schedule and needs. I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, keeping the environment calm, clean, and consistent to reduce stress. I ensure pets are always supervised during visits, maintain secure doors and leashes during walks, and provide fresh water, feeding, and medication as directed.
“Celeste took care of our 18 mo old Boston terrier for an entire day from 9-6. He was quite well taken care of with walks, playtime and his regular meal. We would definitely have her return for a day or longer!”
“Jennifer was great! Very responsive and loving to our five month old mini schnauzer! She also took great care of our condo and even did some extras we asked. Could not recommend her highly enough as she did great with our baby who is a very active social puppy!”
About: I’ve been around pets my whole life, especially dogs. Some as small as my mom‘s Chihuahua, to dogs as big as my sister‘s great mastiffs. Ive cared for all types of pets and would love to meet many more! Recently I’ve started working part time but I’m open to work around that! I try to be as flexible as I can. If you’d like me to drop in to feed, walk, or watch your pet, I’ll be available. Whatever type of routine your pets have I’m down to follow it. Lots of pets I’ve worked with have specific eating routines, as well as walking routines, I’m here to learn what works best for you.
“Brittni was communicative, punctual, and took great care of our dog. He was well loved during her visit and she kept us updated with photos and their walk routes! Will be reaching out to her again for future pet sitting needs.”
About: I’ve been around all different kinds of animals my whole life! I’ve been taking care of my close friends and families animals for as long as I can remember! This includes experience in house sitting and caring for the animals needs! Animals can’t speak to us verbally so it is important to pay attention to their needs and wants. I take animals seriously and treat all of them how I do mine! I am a server at a restaurant and have a very flexible schedule! My shifts are typically at night and last about 5 hours! I typically have my days open! My personal pets are very spoiled! I have two dogs and I take them on walks, to the park, on the boat, etc. I snuggle them any minute I can! They are my main priority- I treat their needs as I do my own. This also transfers over to my clients pets! Like I’ve previously stated, I treat all animals as I do my own!
“Kathleen (Kara) to us, was absolutely fabulous. Rosie adored her and is now.looming for her. She sent photos daily. Checked in often with updates. Left my home cleaner than I left it to her. She is reliable, respectful and more important great with my Rosie! Definitely would recommend her.k”
“Alyssah was very good with our dogs. We have never left our dogs and one is elderly and does not adapt easily to anything new. Alyssah made them comfortable for the week we were gone. She sent great pictures and updates. Her communication was awesome. We WILL definitely use her again.”
“Aspen was one of the best sitters we have hired. She communicated super well, she was kind, sent me a ton of videos and pictures and was very flexible. I highly recommend her to anyone needing someone to care for their puppies in the best of ways! She also house sat and left the home the way that she found it...and that's huge! Thank you, Aspen! See you soon.”
About: I'm great from senior dog care to puppies. I raised puppies from day 1 and adopted dogs and kept them all through their senior years. I am well informed on how to keep up with all aged pups. I've raised and kept dogs all my life. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy caring for animals and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable attention and care. I care for dogs in clients homes by following their routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, companionship and making sure you pets feel comfortable and safe while there owner is away. Also treating your pet like family.
About: Hi my name is TaylorNicole! I am a senior in college and hoping to save up money to make sure that once I leave school I have good foundation to start with. I have over 20+ years of animal caring experience. Within the last 10-15 years I have become extremely knowledgeable and skilled when it comes to dogs and cats. With ages ranging from a day old new born to a senior cat/dog, I know how to handle almost any situation. I have knowledge and skills in administrating IV fluids/medications, shots of any kind, or medications of any kinds. I’ve taken care of and fully recovered pets with PARVOVIRUS, chronic kidney disease, and diabetes. I can promise you that your baby would be in the best hands possible. I’m currently on winter break from college in the area and I have more free time than I know what to do with. Pet care would be my main priority and focus. I would be available whenever I have 4 cats myself and I care for them like they are my legitimate children. They are spoiled rotten and yours would be too. Respecting the fact the the home is the pet’s territory, making it so it was a gradual easy process of me watching the animal/s would be my main focus.
“Carol took great care of my three dogs and cat, and took on the job very last minute! She took the extra step to take them to a park because the concrete was probably too hot to walk them around my direct neighborhood. She even made each pup an adorable bandana! We consider ourselves very lucky to be one of her clients.”
“Kayla is amazing! Super sweet, good communicator & trustworthy. We felt really comfortable with her staying in our home with our 3 kids. Would recommend & hope to book again in the future! And thank you for being available pretty much last minute :)”
“Brittany is an amazing dog sitter!! She’s so sweet and put my mind at ease right away. Brittany loves animals, she took great care of my pup and my house. She also took pics and videos so I could see what my baby was up to. Don’t hesitate, you can trust her with your fur baby! My vaca was stress free knowing my dog was in great hands with Brittany.”

FAQs for House Sitting - Creighton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of June 2026, there are 1,310 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Creighton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Creighton walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Creighton maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Creighton choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
