Kayla was wonderful! I knew the moment she met Zaydan she was good people. He loved her immediately. I was so nervous leaving him for 2 weeks and going out of the country. Kayla was in contact everyday and sending me updates and pictures. I got home 2 days ago and my boy misses her! Looking out the door, waiting to see her again. If that’s not a sign of a fantastic pet sitter, I don’t know what is. Thank you Kayla!! We can’t wait to see you again.

Celeste watched my Dane while I was away for about two weeks over Christmas break. She did a wonderful job with my Dane. Followed his schedule as well. If she had questions she asked and even sent updates. She left my home just as it was before I left. I had no concerns and will use her again.

Kathi was the perfect choice for our house/dog sitter. She gave our two dachshunds lots of TLC and they took to her right away. She has a wonderful way with dogs. Kathi also took great care of our home while we were out of the country. She will always be welcome in our home!

Kara did a wonderful job watching our dog Luna in our home while we were out of town. She was very responsive, sending us daily updates and photos which we loved! And she went above and beyond to make Luna feel comfortable during some over night storms that came through. We will definitely be hiring her again in the future!

About: As someone who works in the pet care industry and has three dogs of my own, caring for animals is a huge part of my life. I have experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments, from high-energy puppies to senior dogs needing extra comfort and attention, and I always strive to make pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I work full time in the pet care industry, so caring for animals is already a big part of my daily life! With at least a week’s notice, I’m able to make my schedule flexible to best meet the needs of your pet and maintain their normal routine as much as possible. I currently offer care within my client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I know how important consistency can be for animals, especially for shy pets, seniors, or pets who may become stressed in new environments. I always take time to learn each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, personality, and comfort needs to help them feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind during visits.

Linda is excellent! I have never used an in home sitter, and had a really GREAT experience with Linda. She came over in advance to meet me, meet the dogs (I have 3), and get the lay of the land with the house and back yard. I really appreciated the time she took (free of charge) to do this. Upon meeting her, I knew she was the right choice for me and my dogs. I got very lucky, as she was my first contact. I could tell Linda could easily manage 3 dogs (which sometimes feels like 100). Linda showed up as promised, minimized time away from dogs, provided great photos, videos and updates. She’s someone you could definitely count on should something happen while you are away. Bottom line. She knows how to handle animals, an home and has a very calm and kind demeanor. I could tell by the videos, that my dogs loved their time with her. Highly recommend Linda!

About: Hello, my name is Faith! I grew up around exceptional dogs and lifelong animal care through my mom’s award-winning breeding and show dog business. From puppy care to understanding different temperaments and routines, I’ve had hands-on experience my whole life — giving your dog attentive, knowledgeable, and personalized care in a safe, loving environment. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I work a very flexible job just down the street from my home. This allows me to provide consistent attention, potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. I’m able to easily adjust my schedule to meet each dog’s individual needs, whether that means extra exercise, training reinforcement, cuddle time, or simply making sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while staying in their familiar home environment. I follow your pet’s normal routine closely — including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, training reinforcement, and plenty of affection — to keep stress low and tails wagging. With my background in dog handling and training, I pay close attention to behavior, safety, and individual needs while also keeping your home clean, respected, and secure. I provide dependable communication, photo updates, and personalized care so you can travel with peace of mind knowing your pet is in experienced, caring hands.

I would leave 10 Stars if I could! Elizabeth took amazing care of our three dogs and a cat! After meeting her for the first time I knew she was the person I could trust with my pets. She is professional in all respects. All the dogs reacted calmly when introduced to her. She goes above and beyond what is normally expected. My dogs are very active and require exercise and a lot of attention. Both of those conditionals were met with Elizabeth exercising them twice a day. She is trustworthy, caring, and followed our dog schedule perfectly. Elizabeth showed her ability to handle situations when ants invaded our house. We were able to rid the house of ants with the help of a neighbor and Elizabeth keeping the dogs clear of any toxic over spray. I am so thankful for her taking care of issues when they arise. Communications with Elizabeth were excellent as she was in contact everyday. Upon our return, we found our house clean and devoid of mountains of dog hair. It is so comforting to know you can leave the country and know that your pets are receiving the best care possible. I highly recommend Elizabeth for taking care of any pet.

Kendra is awesome! I have 2 very HIGH energy dogs that are super needy. Kendra did a great job taking care of them and making sure they got tons of attention and exercise. She even went above and beyond to come out and meet them before my booking and sent lots of pictures so I could see how much fun they were having. I had never used a dog sitter before and Kendra did a great job easing my mind. I will definitely be booking her again!

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and currently have two dogs back home in Omaha that I absolutely adore. Being away from them during my last summer in Lincoln made me realize how much joy animals bring into my life, which is what inspired me to join Rover. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, administering basic care, and giving pets lots of attention and affection. I understand how important trust and communication are when leaving your pets with someone, so I always aim to provide dependable care and regular updates with photos. I work full time during weekdays, so I’m best suited for pets comfortable with a daytime routine, but I make sure they receive plenty of love, exercise, potty breaks, and attention before and after work (I am also more than willing to leave during my lunch if need be!!) I truly treat every pet like family and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I work weekdays during the day, but I’m available for morning and evening walks, drop in visits, overnight care, and weekend availability. I always make time to give pets attention, exercise, affection, and consistent care so they feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. I always prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I carefully follow feeding schedules, potty routines, walking instructions, and any special care requests provided by owners. I understand how important trust is when someone is caring for your pet, so I make communication a priority and provide regular updates and photos. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets feel secure, loved, and well cared for at all times

About: I’ve been a pet owner my whole life! I also began pet sitting at a very young age. I’ve dealt with dogs and cats of ages that range from newborn to 15. I also have experience working in an animal boarding facility. I was tasked with taking care of 50 dogs and several cats at a time as well as cats and bunnies on occasion. I administered medication and meals that followed strict diets. I would also walk each pup daily (if required by owner). I have a love for all pups and I will always do whatever I can to ensure they are happy and taken care of! I work 10-3 on weekdays and either afternoons or evenings on weekends. Other than that I am usually free and can be very flexible! As of now, I am living in an apartment. There is a dog park nearby with plenty of room for pups to run and play.

About: I treat clients' homes and family members with utmost care and respect, and I love on my pet clients like they are my own. I have nearly a decade of professional sitting experience at all stages of the life cycle, from bottle feeding to end-of-life support. My availability opened up when my beloved cat, Hugo, passed in December 2025. He was my special big boy and my joy; I miss him every day! During the last year of his life, I managed his multiple major health conditions including diabetes, kidney failure, and congestive heart failure. He had chronic urinary issues for his entire life despite prescription diets and various intervention attempts, and thus I was always on the lookout for signs of UTI. My boy was anxious and became notorious at multiple veterinary clinics for getting agitated during his checkups. I am eternally grateful to every person who showed him love and gentleness when his behavior was challenging. I strive to show the same loving care to my clients with the promise that even "difficult" pets will be treated like my absolute favorite creature on earth. Depending on the level of care required, I am comfortable with meeting in person or virtually before the sit. My ability to give medication will vary by the relationship and administration method. I typically ask that I perform an on-site home visit before the sit with any pets needing insulin injections, oral (both pill and liquid) medications, or subcutaneous fluid. As a singer and gig worker, I ensure that flexibility is built into my schedule. I am frequently available during business hours and around holidays! Bringing a sense of security is critical in this work. I have one client who requested a short video of the door being locked each day. I will work with you and make every effort to let you know that your home and/or loved one is in good hands.
