“Could not have asked for a better experience. Treated Phil like part of the family. Enjoyed the pictures and updates. If your in need for boarding these are the people for you.”
“Toby appeared to have a great time with you and his new friends. Thank you for the pictures and updates during his stay there. He came home happy and tired out from playing. We would highly recommend you to others looking for a safe home away from home for their fur babies. Thank you!”

“Jamie and her family are so wonderful! Cash spent four days and four nights at their home and was a happy pup when we picked him up. She sent photos and updates daily, which was much appreciated. We had a very relaxing and stress-free family vacation knowing that Cash was in loving hands, being treated like family and living his best life. Would definitely recommend Jamie and her family!!!”

“Nathan is fantastic! He sent pictures and videos throughout and my pup seemed to have a blast! He went to a dog bar, played with neighborhood kids and even helped with yard work.”

“Jamie and Daniel were very nice and accommodating. We'll prepared with note cards of the dogs info and apple air tags for the dogs. Sent daily pics of the dogs. Would definitely use them again.”

“Rebecca does SO good with our Nala. It’s a great feeling knowing that Nala is in good hands while we are gone. We also get several updates and pictures of Nala’s adventures during the day. Definitely recommend!”


“Katrina and Kevin took such great care of our dog. She was spoiled with walks, car rides, trips to the park and even a pup cup from Starbucks! Would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a dog sitter. Will definitely rebook in the future!”

“Sarah is absolutely wonderful. She and her family invited my pup into their home and treated him like he was one of their own. She kept me up to date on how he was doing, sent lots of pictures, spoiled him with treats, and allowed him to get comfortable in her home. I’ll absolutely have Sarah watch my pup again when I need a sitter.”

“We were not disappointed. Bethany and her family gave our husky great care while we were away. We got frequent updates and pictures. It gave us a lot of comfort knowing our dog was in good hands while we were traveling. My 4 year old loved seeing the pictures of what Koda was doing that day. Would book again!!!”

“My dog Juno is new to us and so nervous about being left. Infinity took extra time to help her eat when she was anxious and to let her play with other pups to help ease her mind. Thanks so much!”

“Ryleigh was great. She's a genuine animal lover. She boarded my kitty for a week and everything went smoothly. She sent photo updates, which was greatly appreciated since I was pretty nervous about sending my cat off to be boarded for the first time. I will definitely reach out and have her board my cat again if the situation arises. Thanks Ryleigh!”

“Greta was wonderful with my Maggie. Super caring and asked questions so she knew what Maggie was used to. Would definitely recommend Greta and will use her services again when going out of town and not able to take Maggie with me. Thank you so much Greta! Put my mind at ease knowing Maggie was in good hands. 😊”

“Michael, Lindsey and family were wonderful! We were hesitant to leave our less than 5 month old rescue with anyone but had this trip booked long before he landed with us. They sent so many pictures and it was obvious our little Fig was so loved in our absence. We will definitely use this family again! It made traveling much less stressful for us. Thank you!”

“Ashley and Kyle watched our miniature poodle in their apartment overnight and we couldn’t be more pleased. He’s an energetic dog, but they kept him busy. They had toys for him to play with, took him on walks, and he loved playing with their dog. They also sent us several pics to let us know how he was doing. They even provided a small bag of dog treats to take home and wrote a very nice, thoughtful thank you card which they put in the bag with our dog’s stuff. We would be delighted for them to watch our pup again, and we highly recommend them to anyone else looking for someone to watch their dog.”

About: Tim and I are dog and cat lovers. We have had one pet or another all of our lives. We currently have a Chocolate Lab. I take my dog on frequent walks and play with him constantly. We would be available to care for your precious pet on Friday after 5:00 pm and Saturday nights into Sunday evening only at this time. We can do drop offs starting at 5:30 pm on Friday Night and can watch your pet through Sunday evening until 9:00 PM. If necessary we can arrange early morning pick up on Monday morning. I can take your pet on one or more daily walks during their stay. If your pet needs additional exercise I have a large fenced yard for them to run and play. As far as skills, I am able to administer oral medications to your pet if needed. Your precious pet would receive all kinds of love and attention. I am available for boarding and drop in visits Friday after 5:00 pm and on weekends through Sunday. I can arrange for early morning pickup on Monday if needed. I have a fenced in yard and a very energetic dog who will keep your fur baby company. I also have a walking trail near by where we can go for walks.

About: I have had dogs since I was a child. Anything from Dachshunds to Great Danes. I have been through formal training with a good amount of my dogs. I am the pack leader. I love cuddles and often all dogs can be found sitting close to me. I would love a rescue someday. I work from home and am able to take the dogs out often throughout the day. Our dogs sleep with me on their mats in my bedroom. I can feed and water them as much as needed. I watch them often, listen for que’s and or energy change. I am the pack leader, so they know Mama is in charge. I make sure water is full at all times, feed them as needed, give lots of loves and other care such as baths, cleaning ears, etc.
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Emerald
Kathy and family exceed our expectations on taking care of our newly diagnosed blind pup, Winston. We hadn't even wrapped our heads around the fact that Winston was now blind when we had to leave him behind as we took a previously scheduled vacation. Kathy and Dave kept us up to date on how Winston was getting along by sending us photos and letting us know that he was a happy boy. We appreciate the attention to detail that was provided to Winston. We will definitely be repeat customers!! Thanks, again, for taking care of our little guy.

Katie and her husband are amazing doggo-lovers! They took great care of my Winnie girl and kept us updated with pictures and videos the entire time we were on vacation. Would highly recommend using her for any services, I know I will definitely be when we need her next! :)

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Emerald home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Emerald.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Emerald sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NE ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
