“Carlie was great with my 2 dogs! She showed up timely, sent detailed notes for each drop-in and loved on my girls when I couldn’t be home to do it myself. She came in to let them out to potty, feed them and provide medication to one. Even my little skittish baby liked Carlie soon meeting her!”

About: We come from a loving pet family and love meeting new ones. My name is Mike, my wife is Ruby, and our son Lincoln, who is now in the Navy. We treat our two dogs like children. There are toys all over the house to play with and whenever they are tired they lay on our recliners or couch to sleep. We are able to follow any schedule and can provide medication if needed. Your loved ones will be treated like family ❤️ I will provide hands on care such as playing, walking or anything extra required. There will always be either myself or my wife at home. I work during the week days but my wife Ruby is home during the day. During the weekends we both are home. We have a fenced in yard and a park near by that we can walk to. Our two male dogs are neutered and we will only care for one family's pet(s) at a time.
“Krystal did a fabulous job taking care of our high energy, nervous dog. She got her to eat and outside with any issues. We will definitely have her dog sit for us again. Thanks Krystal!!”


About: I have alot of compassion for our pets that rely on us for everything. We are their world. I am here to make your time away from home a positive one for the pets and the homeowner. I am currently working part-time, but I am planning on transitioning to pet-sitting full-time. Animals deserve great care when their owners are away. My visits with your pet/pets will be scheduled as requested. I will make sure that their environment is safe and clean up any accidents. Their food will be given as you request and water bowls will be be replenished. Going for walks and outdoor playtime is also available.
“We are new to the area and were feeling anxious about finding a pet sitter that would be kind and loving to our babies. We could not be happier that we found Jaclyn on Rover and gave her the chance. From our first time doing a meet & greet, she was genuine, honest, and explained everything she would take care of while we were out of town. Our 3 kitties loved her from the moment they met her. She did a wonderful job of sending us daily reports and photos of our babies. She checked in daily through the Rover app, always on time. One thing that stood out was how detail-oriented Jaclyn is and how she paid attention to a subtle difference in one of our cats. She reported that our 17 year old kitty was breathing differently and sent us a video. Sure enough, our girl had an upper respiratory infection and had to go to the hospital for care. We are so grateful we found Jaclyn. She is trustworthy and responsible. More importantly, she loved our babies and our babies loved her!”

About: I have been taking care of pets most of my life.

I love having animals around! I’m a stay at home mom with two young children. My oldest loves pets and is always wanting more. We love to walk our two dogs around the neighborhood and play in the backyard while the dogs roam around., I have a fenced in yard and a designated space inside the home for animals to be. Regular outside time is given as needed as well as walks and plenty of space if any pups need separation.

“Jyoti was fantastic! She did two drop-in visits for our dogs, Dolly and Rivers, while we were away for the day. She was professional, punctual, and wonderful with both of them. We had complete peace of mind knowing they were being well cared for and could enjoy our day without worrying. We highly recommend Jyoti and will definitely be requesting her again in the future. Thank you for taking such great care of our pups! 🐾💕”

About: If you want to get away for that well deserved vacation or just a 3 day weekend and feel secure in knowing that your fur babies are being lovingly cared for, then I’m just who you’re looking for! I have loved dogs (and most animals) my whole life. I think of them as a family member, not as a pet. I will remain calm around your loved one as not to cause any anxiety. Even though I don’t have a dog at this time, I have had many dogs throughout my life. I can hardly remember a time that I didn’t have one. My best friend (a Boxer named CC) had quite a few medical problems from 2010 through 2015 and I had to give her an average of 17 pills a day. (Sometimes less). So I’m pretty experienced as far as that goes. My schedule is very flexible and I am very reliable. I am flexible about allowing your pet on furniture. If that’s not allowed I will follow your wishes 100%.
About: Hi! I'm Ashley, a dedicated pet lover with over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all kinds. Friends and family have trusted me for years to pet sit, whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, or just giving their pets the love and attention they deserve. I'm a proud dog mom to 3 girls, a 12 year old lab mix, a 4 year old yellow lab and a 3 year old lab/gsp, so I'm very comfortable with large, strong, and high-energy dogs. I understand their need for structure, exercise, and mental stimulation —and I'm always happy to keep up! I also have plenty of experience with puppies and know how important it is to be patient, consistent, and attentive to their unique personalities. My experience doesn't stop with dogs and cats-l've also cared for a bearded dragon and am confident in caring for yours whether it is a turtle/tortoise, fish or bearded dragon. I can't wait to meet you and your pets! I have a flexible schedule on the weekends and plenty of availability to give your pet the time and attention they need. I also have a reliable vehicle, so I'm dependable and able to accommodate your needs. When your pet is with me, they'll be treated like family. I'll follow your routines closely to keep things consistent and stress-free, and your pet will get lots of love, playtime, and attention. I also make sure to keep you updated so you always feel connected while you are away. I work full time with weekends off, with my own adventures, I know how important it is to have someone to be able to check in on your pets. I want to be able to provide that for others. I will keep as close to their routine as possible. If I need to take them on a walk to potty or let them roam their own yard, I will do.
“Rachel was fantastic! She took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated with photos. It's clear that she is an animal lover; she took her time and never rushed. I didn't have to worry about anything while I was away. My dog was happy and well cared for, and I will definitely be using her services again!”


About: Hi! I’m a former paramedic who is currently working helping my family run our small business. I’ve spent my whole life around dogs and cats and caring for animals (and people) has always been a part of who I am. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies to senior dogs, and I’m able to provide care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable working with cats and dogs that may be shy, fearful, reactive, or considered less than friendly. I understand the importance of patience, reading body language, and creating a calm, safe environment so pets feel comfortable and secure. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking companion, gentle care, medication support, or simply someone they can trust while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same attention and compassion that I give my own. I’m currently working with my family which allows me to have an extremely flexible and open schedule. Generally available from 8:30a.m-11p.m 7 days a week Long walks and backyard or park playtime. I am comfortable caring for pets with special medical and physical needs. I can provide basic grooming if needed for pets that will allow.
About: I’ve been raised around dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for them in every stage — from playful puppies to seniors who need a little extra patience and attention. Having supported my own dogs through their later years, I understand how important gentle, attentive care is. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work Monday through Friday from 5:30 AM to 2:30 PM, which means I’m available for early morning visits before work and have my full afternoons and evenings open for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. Because I’m off mid-afternoon, your pet won’t be waiting all day for attention. I’m able to give them consistent, reliable care and quality time — whether that’s a calm check-in, an energetic walk, or simply extra cuddles to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I will always care for your pet the way you feel most comfortable, especially in your own home. I carefully follow any instructions you leave — from feeding routines and medications to favorite toys and bedtime habits — because I know how important consistency is for their comfort and your peace of mind. If they stay in my home, they’ll be welcomed into a calm, loving environment alongside my two pets. They’ll have access to a fully fenced backyard where they can safely explore and enjoy fresh air. I’m able to separate from my cat if needed to ensure everyone feels secure and comfortable. While I’m not able to separate from my dog, he is well-socialized and used to being around other animals. My goal is always to create a safe, warm space where your pet feels cared for, understood, and at home.

Rachel is the best. She is reliable, communicative, and went above and beyond to make sure our pup felt comfortable and loved. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter. Thank you for treating our dog like your own!

Carlie has checked in on babies a few times now and they love her so much. She’s so loving and treats them like her own. She’s knowledgeable and gives them the best care. She stepped in very last second when we had a medical emergency to make side our dog wouldn’t be alone for too long and that gave us peace of mind knowing he was well taken care of. She’s one of the best

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Grand Island on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 2,851 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Grand Island. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Grand Island stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% can help with daily exercise

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 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.
