About: I love animals! I have grown up with dogs, specifically, my whole life. During college, I dog-sat for many families, one family with two Newfoundlands for three years. So I am also very capable of working with big dogs with big personalities! I do walks, playtime, and overnight stays or check-ins. I am a intern at Walking Mountains. I currently get Monday and Tuesday off. My work schedule varies from week to week. Because of that, I have a lot of flexibility to meet your needs! I am currently only offering care at your homes. I am willing to take care of all pet needs as needed, and more than willing to communicate with you while you are away about how they are doing!

“Ella is a life saver! As always she is great with the animals but this time she went above and beyond. I got my days off by 1 day and after realizing this Ella went onto to our house right away and was able to rearrange out stop ins. It was so relieving to know they were okay!”

About: I have worked at a veterinary clinic as a kennel assistant, at a doggy daycare as park staff, and at a wildlife rehab as seasonal staff. These jobs have required me to monitor behavior and symptoms to ensure the health and safety of all involved. I work part time, leaving me with much time for looking after animals. I am off on weekends and am looking for something full-filling to fill that time. My shifts at my job are usually 6 hours but no more than 8. In high school, I watched many pets in my hometown while their families were away. Lists and rules are very important to me so that I know exactly what is expected and how your furry family member would have the best experience.

About: Hey! I have a strong passion for animals, which has led me to gain a wealth of experience in pet care. This includes not only looking after my own pets but also taking care of those belonging to family and friends. My hands-on training with my dogs has equipped me with the skills to handle a variety of breeds, from small to large, and different age groups, including puppies and seniors. My approach to pet care focuses on building trust and understanding each animal's unique personality and needs. I enjoy engaging in activities that promote their well-being, such as exercise, training, and socialization. My reliability and commitment to providing high-quality care have earned me positive recommendations from those I've worked with. If you have specific aspects of my experience or services you're curious about, feel free to ask! I am a stay-at-home mom and can adjust my work schedule as needed! I'm always open to making arrangements, provided we discuss them in advance. As a stay-at-home mom, I find great joy in caring for my pets alongside my family responsibilities. Managing the needs of three pets requires organization and dedication, but I love ensuring they are well-fed, groomed, and taken out regularly for potty breaks. Walking my dog is not only a crucial part of their daily routine but also a wonderful way for me to stay active and enjoy the outdoors. Additionally, I often help out my neighbors by walking their dogs as well. This not only strengthens my bond with my own pet but also allows me to contribute to the community and support fellow pet owners. I take pride in creating a nurturing environment for my pets, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and love. If you have any specific questions or areas you'd like to know more about, feel free to ask!

About: I’ve had dogs and cats in my life starting from the age of 10. I’ve always helped when it came to feeding, walking, and any potty pick ups. I’ve taken care of dogs for both family and friends. Currently only available afternoons on Tuesdays and Thursdays, as well as afternoons and evenings on weekends due to school and a regular job throughout the week. I like to make sure that I know all entrances and exits and if there’s any loose doors/handles, that way I know where to keep an eye out around the house of clients, so no one gets hurt or out without supervision.

About: I have had dogs and cats in the past, and am now the proud owner of two kitties! Ramona and Lucy keep me busy at home, but have been a Rover sitter for years. I love getting to meet new pets! I live and work in Lincoln! I work mostly weekdays and occasional weekends, the specific days vary which allows me to be pretty flexible. My day is 7:30a to 4p, so if you need a visit early in the morning I can do that! Overall I feel I have plenty of time in my schedule and would love to put that time to good use. My girls at home are my children! They’re spoiled with all of our love and attention. I understand that pets love their home, routine, and familiar smells. Trust that I will respect your pet’s nerves while you’re gone (if they have any). You’re their person, but they’ll be safe and loved in your absence.

About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. I grew up with pets and have had my own boxer mix for the past 8 years, so I understand just how much our pets mean to us. With over 10 years of experience in veterinary medicine, I'm comfortable caring for pets of all ages and medical needs, including giving medications and helping with post-surgery recovery. Whether your pet is a playful puppy, a laid-back senior, or just needs lots of love and attention, I'll care for them like they're my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while giving you peace of mind that they're in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have my own pet and already structure my day around providing attention, exercise, and care. I work Monday through Friday, and i can provide care before work, during my hour-long lunch break, and after work for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. On weekends, I have even more time to dedicate to longer walks, cuddles, and fun activities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I focus on creating a calm, loving environment where they feel safe and truly at home. I meet each pet where they are and build trust at their pace, whether they’re energetic and playful or shy and reserved. In my home, pets are treated like family. They’re welcome on the couch, the bed, and anywhere they feel comfortable. My gentle 11-year-old boxer gets along well with other pets and helps create a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. Your pet will receive plenty of attention, affection, and personalized care every step of the way.

About: I have over 20 years of pet-sitting experience caring for dogs of all sizes and breeds, as well as cats. I genuinely love animals and enjoy providing attentive care, including companionship, playtime, and exercise. I understand that every pet has unique needs and a special place in their family. I am responsible, dependable, and punctual, and I take pride in making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to make pet care a priority. I’m happy to work with pet owners to maintain their pets’ usual routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. I understand the importance of consistency and reliability, and I strive to provide attentive care while keeping owners informed and their pets comfortable and happy. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home. I treat every home with care and respect, carefully follow the instructions provided for each pet individually, and make their safety and comfort my priority. I always use leashes when walking dogs and follow each pet’s specific routines, needs, and safety precautions. I’m respectful of your home and privacy, keep things tidy, and provide communication updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care and ensure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved.

Dogs are special to me so I treat them as so. I work from 6am-2pm during the week and don’t work on the weekends.

About: We love all animals and treat them as family. There is care for the animal in the home 24/7. Patient with all types of animals. Work flexibility. I am working full time but my partner works from home. Pets will have company 24/7 with bathroom breaks as needed. If the owner and dog are comfortable with it car rides for fun and to the dog park are always an option. We are able to take an animal in at any time. We will both be home on weekends. Plenty of play time. I have a fenced yard. I have cats in the home but gates to keep them easily separated. I have water fountains for easy access to water. I have experience with giving medication and taking care of animals with bathroom issues.

Hannah’s communication was wonderful! My kitties were well taken care of. This was the first time that I had someone outside of family take care of them while I was away. I didn’t have any worries that they weren’t getting any attention or affection. I definitely will have Hannah on the top of my list to contact the next time I have to be gone for a few days.
