“Jennifer was absolutely awesome. We went out of town internationally and left our fur babies at home. We received constant updates on how they were doing and she completely spoiled them with treats, new dog beds, and plenty of toys. We came home to happy babies and our home was well taken care of. If there were any issues with them at all, we were notified immediately and were truly able to enjoy our trip as we knew they were in the best of hands. We had originally toyed with the idea of boarding them, and we are so happy that we opted to keep them at home and under her supervision. We will definitely hang onto her contact information and utilize her in the future when we feel the need to get away for a few days. We cannot possibly think more highly of her and are so thankful for her and the love that she gave to our kids.”
About: I have owned dogs ever since I was born. In middle school my family had a total of 8 dogs at one time. I now own a golden doodle who is 1.5 years old. I am a stay at home parent but the kids have started school so I am available most days of the year. I am very flexible. I am comfortable around dogs and can stay with the pet as needed. I can also bring the dog to my house if needed where I have a fenced yard
About: I have had my own dog for a year and my parents have had a dog my whole life. I grew up around dogs and know how to care for them. I am working part time at the moment, afternoon works best. But depending on the days I could do some mornings and evenings. It all really depends on the day. I will care for your pets like they are my own. I will make sure any rules or requests you have are followed. Especially on walks!
About: I have a 2 yo lab/Aussie of my own named Finn. He has a ton of energy, so I know how important walks and playing are! I have walked shelter dogs for 2 years as a volunteer. I have also watched several of my family and friends pets while they were away. I am currently a paramedic and work 24 hr shifts. This allows me to have every other day off and plenty of time to walk your dog at anytime of the day! I have a fenced in back yard. I have several leashes, including a double leash if you have two dogs. I would treat your dog as I would treat my own.
“Elyza did great watching our three kitties, which can be a pain because we have to keep one of them separated from the other two. Also appreciated her bringing in blown down Xmas decorations and packages that were delivered while we were gone.”
About: I have taken care of many animals from a young age, my love for animals and dogs has always been a big thing for me. I previously worked at a ranch and dog boarding facility where I worked with all breeds and many many animals at once. I’ve always watched family/friends dogs while they are out of town. I would love to spend some time with your animals as well🥰 I am available at just about anytime with a short heads up, I am currently taking time to look for a new job so I will have pleanty of time to look after and tend to your pups! I can be with your dogs, let them out, walk and play with them, to their and your preferred schedule! I have 2 dogs at home and one is a little timid around other dogs so being able to stay at the clients home does work better for me.
“Kelli was great, helping us out for a trip when our usual caretaker wasn't available. She handled an address mishap with grace and our two cats were kept fed and happy. She was great at communicating and handling everything while we were gone.”
About: I have had my cat for over 6 years and my family dog for 5 years. I love them both so much! I have had them both since they were puppy and kitten! My work hour is very flexible and I work a hybrid job. I have plenty of time to take care your fur babies! I can work around your hours of needs- weekdays and weekends! I will follow the information that is being provided to me as the sitter very strictly. I know each animals have their very unique needs and I am willing to work with you.
About: Pet's aren't just animals they are family members! I have worked at a veterinary clinic for a combined 7 years and am currently the Practice Manager at a local Veterinary Clinic. I have an 11 year old Pug, 3 year old Doxador (1/2 Dachshund 1/2 Labrador Retriever (yup.. you read that right, she’s one of a kind) and a 7 year old Cat.. I love them so much, they are my babies! I love caring for pets and making them feel as comfortable and as relaxed as they can be while being out of their element and routine and I hope I have the opportunity to take care of yours!! I do currently work full-time as well as my husband. I do only work a few minutes away so I do stop in 1-2x’s during the day to give potty breaks, lunch, medications, etc. Besides brief stops at home around lunch my husband and I are out of the house for about 8 hours a day. My dogs usually have free roam of one of the bedrooms during this time. All dogs that stay with me must be current on heartworm and flea and tick prevention unless directed otherwise by your veterinarian. All dogs must also be current on vaccinations unless directed otherwise by your veterinarian as I want to keep mine and yours healthy and happy. I do require a meet and greet before any stays as it is so beneficial and important to make sure I meet your needs and to ensure things go smoothly. I only take dogs from the same family at a time. If I am watching a dog from one family I will not be available to watch a dog from another. Unfortunately this does hinder my availability but I do this for the safety of all dogs involved and to make sure I can provide the very best care to each pet. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or inquiries. Also, due to my husband and I renovating our house there are a few weeks/weekends I am unavailable. I have been a Veterinary Assistant in the past for a total of almost 6 years which entailed taking care of boarding and hospitalized patients. I am very experienced in administering medication.
About: I have been pet sitting for friends and family since I was in jr high school. I currently have 1 dog 3 fish, and 2 humans I keep alive! I'm patient, I have lots of energy but also like to chill if that's what your pup would prefer! I've recently made some major lifestyle changes to make myself more flexible and accessible for my family! This gives me the chance to be available about anytime of day. I would love to meet you and your pets! At this point my calendar is fairly open, I am flexible and willing to work with moving and changing schedules. Most of my day involves school pick up and off and being a taxi to evening dance classes, which is easily done with or around the schedule of an extra furry friend or 2. We have 1 Brittany. She she has full use of all upstairs furniture, a fully enclosed backyard and probably too many snacks! They are happy to welcome new friends to sit on their sofas!
About: I grew up on a farm so taking care of animals is what I have done my whole life. I am good with all age ranges from the younger ones full of energy to the seniors that enjoy their own space. I currently watch my friend’s dogs and check in on their cats. I travel for work but when I’m home can work from anywhere! I travel for work but when I’m home can work from wherever. I have a fenced in yard for easy potty breaks and also go for walks around the neighborhood. I have a very friendly Jack Russell Terrier who LOVES all other dogs no matter the size as well as cats. My apartment has its own private fenced in yard. The inside is big enough to kennel as needed or let them have their own space if they prefer. I have 2 dog parks in my apartment with one being decided to small dogs only.

“Robert was great for our 3 dogs, especially with a shy older dog and a rambunctious younger dog (plus the very chill one in between!). He kept us well updated and even brainatormed some ways to make our shy guy more comfortable. Thanks!!!”
About: Owned dogs all my life with experience from puppy to end of life. I truly believe our pets are part of the family and should be treated as such I often work from home with a lot of flexibility. I am up early and stay up late so can be accommodating to many schedules I do not have a fenced yard, I leash walk animals regularly. Historically with my own dogs I have underground fencing. Safety and attention are my concerns for animals
About: I have always been a dog mom, since the start of adulthood. I was raised with cats and dogs in the home. Professionally, I am a child mental health therapist, and as part of my prior training in Psychology, I completed a field experience at the Nebraska Humane Society using behavior modification to train dogs. I have spent many years housesitting, dog sitting and cat sitting during my professional schooling. As my stepchildren are almost all grown and out of the home, I have found myself with some extra time and would love to help your family with care for your fur babies. I have experience with senior pets as well as giving medications. No reptile experience. I currently have a very flexible schedule and I’m able to make my own schedule at work. This will allow me the flexibility to care for your pets at various times throughout the day and evenings. I have a fence yard and two pets of my own at home. However, as I have a friend that rents a room in my home, I am able to housesit overnight and take care of pets in their own home so they don’t have to be displaced. I am also open to whatever schedule works for each family, for drop in care or walks.
About: I have taken care of so many different dogs since growing up! We have always had a dog in our household! I love every dogs unique personality!

I am able to give medicine if needed to your pup! I will take the very best care of them and love them like they are my own! I currently work in a hospital so I am available on my days off to come and let your pups out for some playtime and walks! I have one of my own so I know the importance of getting outside or interacting for a little bit throughout the day when you are away at work! Our girl clover gets tons of walks and playtime when we are home! As well as going to doggy daycare once or twice a week! Me or my husband jordan have the ability to help out other families in need because we understand the work/life balance with a puppy/dog! We care for our golden retriever in our home with lots of playtime and love! As well as tons of walks and outside time in our fenced in backyard! We also give her some car rides and make sure she meets lots of people to get her adapted to the world! I can offer leash walks or outside time if you have a fenced in backyard and lots of play time!

I could not recommend Courtney more. The way she personalizes the care for my dog is amazing. She truly cares about specifics I share with her, which is very comforting when I have to be away from him. She is always on time, reliable, and leaves the sweetest notes on the rover card. If you are looking for someone, Courtney is your girl !!!!
Abby did an outstanding job caring for my three cats! Leaving them is never easy, but she quickly earned my complete trust with her reliability, clear communication, and genuine care. I was able to fully relax and enjoy my vacation knowing they were in such capable, loving hands. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Gretna is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $31 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,140 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Gretna. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Gretna. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
