“Our family was so fortunate to have had Sierra care for our fur babies! She is punctual, detailed, and exceedingly dependable. It is obvious, through her detailed notes and excellent photos, that Sierra is loving and caring to all of our pets (the photos showed the joy on their faces!). Equally important, Sierra always maintained the highest level of professionalism when walking our dogs, making snap decisions related to weather and other pets along the walking path that were crucial to the safety and well being of our pets. This superior level of care is difficult to find. Thank you, Sierra, for allowing us to travel with peace of mind in knowing that our fur babies were safe and loved.”

About: I've owned and watched dogs for years. I have also fostered dogs of all sizes and personality. I even worked as a assistant manager at Camp Bow Wow. I work well with all ages and I understand that each pet is unique and has different needs. I will give them the best care. I'm currently working for a small business, I get to work from home so I can adjust my hours to fit your needs. I have regular dog walking clients/ drop-in so I can be gone for a few hours. When I go to a client's home I will send the client pictures of their pets and give them updates. I make sure to respect the clients home.
“Hannah always does a great job for my two babies. She is very quick to respond and easy to work with. I’ve used her a few times and continue to! Her experience working at a vet clinic makes me feel more comfortable. She always sends pictures and I know my dogs love when she comes around”


“Erika was able to meet with me on a moment's notice and was very reliable. She even worked it out to drive a little farther than she would have liked. Thank you Erika!”
About: 🐾Please note that meet and greets are required for all my services! Me and my boyfriend both work full time jobs so your pets will be alone for a few hours depending on your services you schedule with me. Also note if you book for a boarding stay you will have to provide a crate if your dog stays in a crate while your gone durning the day or overnight!🐾 I have taken care of all breed and sizes of dogs for a few years now. All my family and family friends have trusted me with their fur babies. I go to their homes or I take their dogs home with me depending on how they get along with my dogs. I have fed, played, and bathed dogs. I also love of them as if they are my own dogs. Not only do I care for dogs but I can care for all other four legged animals as well! Depending on the day if I work your pet will get 1 walk and plenty of outside time! If I am not working your dog will get 2 walks, hours of outside time and get as much enrichment to help their mental stemalation and energy! Starting in May on Saturdays I typically work at a race track until late, but I will go to your home prior to me going to the track. I have a fenced in yard and live in a nice Kearney neighborhood! We have several nature trails to walk on and a dog park in town! I do have two dogs but both are very friendly with other dogs and up to date on all vaccinations! There is also a vet office 5 minutes down the road that I take my animals to so if there ever is an emergency I will go straight there!
“My dog loves Caroline! After his walks, she spent extra time playing with him in the backyard and loving on him. She had great communication skills and did an excellent job managing his sometimes leash reactiviness. We will definitely book her again if she is available.”

“Second time we had Caitlin watch our animals. She is an excellent, thoughtful, and highly efficient individual who makes every effort to complete the tasks at hand and successfully communicate things to keep your mind at ease during travel. I cannot give any higher recommendation and (if possible) you should utilize her services while on vacation to take care of your animals. She is truly one of the “good ones!” Thanks again to Caitlin!”
About: I love animals—all of them. I've had animals in my home since I was born, including dogs, cats, lizards, guinea pigs, and more. Over the years, I've gained a lot of experience caring for different kinds of animals, and I've found that understanding them comes naturally to me. Animal body language and communication are things I pick up on easily, which helps me recognize when a pet is comfortable, nervous, excited, or needs something. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, but first and foremost, my priority is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I'll keep you updated on your pet's status to ensure you have comfort knowing someone is keeping a watchful eye over them. Currently, I'm unemployed as I'm awaiting openings in an electrical program I'd like to get into, so I have more than enough time to take care of whatever needs you may have! When caring for a pet in their home, I make their safety and comfort my top priorities. I follow the owner's instructions and routines as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, medication, playtime, and any other specific needs. I also make sure doors, gates, and other potential escape routes are secure, and I pay close attention to the pet's behavior and body language so I can recognize when they are stressed, uncomfortable, or need space. I treat every home with the same care and respect that I would want for my own.
About: I’ve taken care of others pets or my own most of my life. I have had my current dog for seven years. He just turned 12 so I also have experience with geriatric animals as well I am a single father so my availability can fluctuate depending on if you are okay having a a 3 year old come and help (fully supervised) . Want to be able to best meet everyone’s unique needs! I will follow any and all instructions left for me. I’ll make sure your pet feels like you never left the house and that every need is met.

About: I absolutely love taking care of home pets! You will feel stress-free with me while taking care of your animals until you return home. I believe that animals need more love and care than just being let outside and fed. I have house and pet sat for two summers now, and I really love it! I am home from college, looking to have a simpler job during the summer! I am fully available all week and usually the weekends as well unless I'm on a trip! Very open to anything. I have a fenced yard for my pup at home, which helps them have more fun outside! I could also crate the animal if that is what is needed.
About: Growing up in a household where I wasn’t allowed to have a pet of my own, I searched for every chance to spend time with furry friends. I spent a lot of time at neighbors’ and friends’ houses playing with and pet-sitting their dogs, studying a variety of dog breeds, and watching pet shows like “Too Cute” on Animal Planet. In middle school I volunteered at the animal shelter and in high school I was exposed to many therapy dogs at the hospital. Finally, 7 years ago I got a shih-poo of my own and it’s been such a joy getting to spoil her rotten. Dogs bring us so much light, love, and companionship so they deserve to be treated with utmost care and pampered to their heart’s content! I will make sure your precious pet gets the attention it needs so that you can live your life care free and they can live theirs cared for! I am not currently working so I have plenty of time to spend with your furry friend! My availability is completely open for walks, check ins, and whatever and however much care your pet may need! I have a large fenced in yard with ample space for your pet and I to play and run around in. My shih-poo can keep your four-legged friend company or can be caged up, whichever you and your pet are comfortable with. I have a variety of dog treats that your pup is welcome to as well.
About: I’ve always had dogs growing up and I had my own for 7 years. I miss him dearly and would love to be able to give part time lovins to others for now until I find another to call my own! I work full time as a mortician from 6a-6p but I have evenings and weekends free and even some day time availability to feed, walk, let out or just love some pups! I do live in an apartment, however they have a fenced in dog area. I’m willing to travel to your house or they’re definitely welcome in mine!
About: I have tons of pet care experience. I used to work in a daycare/ boarding facility. I have also cared for dogs in my home before. I am available every day of the week with flexible hours. I am also a certified pet trainer and your dog may come home with new skills or improved manners just for fun. I will make sure your pet gets plenty of exercise and socializing. I will love your dog as much as you do and will treat them like my own. I am respectful and responsible with any of your personal needs or wants when it comes you and your four legged friends. Please let me care for your pet while you are gone and trust that I will take good care of them. I am home full time with the exception of personal outings and running errands. I will be able to let your pups out for potty breaks, go for walks and have plenty of time to play. I make sure that a leash is always attached before opening a door to take your dog for a walk unless fenced in. We currently don’t have a fence, but will hopefully soon. We have two friendly dogs.

About: Hi! I’m Bailey, a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently care for my own pets and have experience with senior pets, medically complex pets, medications, anxious animals, and multi-pet households. I understand that every pet has a different personality, and I take the time to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I work independently, which allows me flexibility and reliability when caring for your pets. Whether your dog loves long walks or your cat prefers quiet companionship, I’ll treat them like members of my own family. I know how important trust is when someone is caring for your pets, so I’ll provide regular updates, photos, and communication while you’re away. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, allowing me to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care throughout the day. Because I work from home, pets receive regular attention, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and companionship instead of being left alone for long periods. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so you can relax while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my highest priorities. I work remotely from my home, allowing me to closely monitor pets throughout the day. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any special care requests. I have years of experience caring for dogs and cats, including seniors and pets with complex medical needs. I understand that every pet is unique and strive to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. My goal is to provide a calm, safe environment where your pet feels at home while you’re away.

I currently have a part time job, afternoons or evenings work best for me, can watch overnight if needed,let me know what works best!

Every walker 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.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
