“I used Samantha to watch my pup for me when I went out of town. This was by far the best experience I’ve ever had on Rover. Samantha is someone that clearly has experience taking care of animals and will frequently send updates and pictures during the stay. I’m so thankful for Samantha and I would HIGHLY recommend if you need someone dependable. Also, be prepared for your dog to get depressed when you get there to pick them up because they don’t want to leave.”
“Ashlee was great! Our sweet Raven warmed right up to her and her family, and was treated like one of their own fur babies. Ashlee was wonderful when our trip got extended by almost a full day, and kept us updated with pictures and videos. Would love to let Raven stay again in the future!”
“5 star household! Our old man was so tired from all the play time. They provided great photos and updates and showed concern when he had a bit of bleeding from tug of war. Knowing they pay attention to details gave us additional peace of mind.”
“My babies enjoyed their mini vacation. They were excited to see me when I picked them up but they didn't seem stressed at all. They were definitely loved on the whole stay. I always got quick replies to my messages, updates and pictures. Will definitely reach out again if needed.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for friends and family for over 10 years, giving me plenty of hands-on experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and needs. I understand how important it is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive, and I treat every dog in my care like they’re part of my own family. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company, I’m happy to provide the care and attention they deserve. Dog sitting fits naturally into my regular routine because I’m able to plan my day around giving pets the time, attention, and care they need. I enjoy spending time with dogs, going for walks, playing with them, and making sure they’re comfortable and happy. I’m responsible with my time and can work pet care into my schedule while making sure each dog gets plenty of attention and isn’t left feeling alone. My goal is to make pet sitting feel easy and stress-free for both you and your pet. I provide attentive, responsible, and personalized care for every pet, while staying in my home. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of companionship. When caring for a pet in a client’s home, I treat their home with the same respect and care I would my own. My priority is making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.
About: Hi, I’m Alexis! I’m a lifelong dog lover and pet owner with experience caring for senior and special-needs dogs. I most recently adopted my dog, Simon! He is a gentle giant with a wobble to his walk. He has Cerebellar Hypoplasia, but that doesn’t stop him at all! Simon loves his dog friends of all sizes and would love to join me in helping take care your fur babies! I’ve cared for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities, including Chihuahuas, Labs, Huskies, Cane Corsos, Shibas, and King Shepherds—no dog is too big or too small! I’m also comfortable with special care needs. My previous dog Milo had epilepsy, so I have experience administering medication and providing attentive care for dogs who need a little extra support. More recently, I adopted a senior Shiba who passed away at 15 after battling non-regenerative anemia, which gave me hands-on experience with the patience, comfort, and extra attention senior dogs require. I don’t have a fenced-in yard, but I live near a park with lots of walking paths and green space. I’m happy to provide plenty of leashed walks and outdoor time, and there’s also a dog park nearby for friendly pups who enjoy it! I also frequently visit the Omaha Dog Bar and would be happy to bring your registered pup along for an outing if they’re comfortable and enjoy socializing. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own, with patience, love, attention, and plenty of belly rubs! 🐾❤️ I work fully remote, so your pup will have plenty of company and attention throughout the day! Our mornings start around 7 AM (or earlier if they’re the ones waking me up), with a potty break and some morning time together before I start work. While I’m working, they’re welcome to lounge on the couch or bed nearby. We’ll take breaks throughout the day for attention, potty breaks, and a little playtime. After work around 4 PM, we’ll head out for a longer walk or, if they enjoy it, a trip to the dog park. I’ll then head to the gym for about two hours, after which I’ll be home for dinner, another walk, cuddles, and relaxing together! Overall, your pup can expect a comfortable routine, lots of companionship, regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of love throughout the day! I treat every animal as if they were my own and take the time to understand their routine, personality, comfort level, and any special needs before they stay with me. Because I work fully remote, I’m home throughout the day and able to provide frequent supervision, potty breaks, attention, and companionship. I don’t have a fenced-in yard, so outdoor time is always supervised and on-leash unless we’re in a secure, designated area. I live near a park with plenty of walking paths and green space, which makes it easy to give pups safe, regular exercise. I’m experienced with senior and special-needs dogs, including administering medication and providing extra patience and care when needed. I’m also comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and will always follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and routines.
“We can not be more pleased with how much Love Dara showed our Geriatric Deaf Boxer. Everyday she would send pictures and updates. Will definitely use her for every sitting need. Our pup can't wait to visit again.”
“Ricky was wonderful and made us feel at ease leaving our dog as a first time Rover user and exceeded our expectations! He kept us updated every day with pictures and treated our dog like his own and spoiled him! We will definitely be using him again 😊”
“This is the 2nd time we have had Jeffrey watch Maggie in the last few weeks. When we got to his house to drop her off she immediately ran to his front door to get in. We are thrilled the way he takes care of our dog!”
“Carol was awesome - super easy to work with, went above and beyond, and our dog always looked so happy and well cared for in the picture she shared. She was a total joy, and we immediately added her to the top of our rebook list!”
“Olivia is so attentive and thorough with care instructions, has a beautiful back yard that my dog loved, and has a genuine love for animals that I could understand from our first meeting. My dog came home happy and freshly exercised, so I was able to relax immediately. Thank you Olivia!”
About: I’ve had dogs all of my life. I grew up with small dogs under 20lbs and now have my own Blue Heeler, Ollie. My cattle dog has given me lots of experience with high-energy pups. I’ve also been fostering with the Nebraska Humane Society for the last three years. This has given me experience with many different breeds, ages, and behaviors. I’ve taken several training classes through GoDogs as well. This has helped me to prepare for many different behaviors using positive reinforcement and redirection. I currently only work 3pm-9pm Monday thru Friday and I have a partner at home while I’m working so the pets will have very minimal time alone or kennel time. I also take my other dog on many walks throughout the day and we average about two hours of dog park time a day as well and we’d be more than happy to bring your pup along if you would like. I have a small fenced yard outside my apartment or a dog park that’s a ten minute walk away for lots of outside play time. I also have a dog and cat of my own so your pet will never be lonely!
About: I currently work as a caregiver and they have 2 dogs that I walk. I also walk dogs dog for Wag. I currently have have 1 dogs of my own I work full time at one job and I’m planning on resigning from my evening part time job. I’ll have plenty of time in the evening and overnight I live in an a apartment right now and I’m planning on moving into a house. I have one small dog, he’s a friendly dog
“Seth did a wonderful job of watching Gus while we were away for over a week. We’ve appreciated the daily updates. It’s clear Gus has been getting a lot of exercise and has enjoyed his stay!”
“Zach was fantastic taking care of Lego over the 4th of July weekend. He sent daily photos and was super easy to communicate with and met with us prior to our booking. Will definitely be using him again for future dog sitting.”
“Ebone took such good care of my pup! She sent pictures and gave me updates daily. My dog was happy to see me when I picked her up, but was also happy being with Ebone! Ebone played with fetch with Mod (my dog) a bunch, and that's the quickest way to her heart :)”

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 Hastings home-away-from-home, 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 Hastings.
<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 Hastings 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.

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 IA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

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.
