About: Hi there! My spouse and I are lifelong dog lovers who have been surrounded by pups since childhood. Between the two of us, we've grown up with a wide range of dog breeds, sizes, and personalities. We have six dogs of our own, and we also volunteer as fosters for a local dog rescue. We’re comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, from playful puppies to big couch-loving seniors. Whether your dog is active and energetic or prefers a quieter routine, we’re happy to accommodate their needs with love, patience, and plenty of attention. Our home is full of dog-friendly energy, and we treat every dog like family. You can feel confident knowing your pup will be in caring and capable hands while you're away! Whether we’re caring for our own pack or welcoming a guest pup, we maintain a calm, structured environment with lots of love and consistency. Because we’re already on a dog-focused schedule, it’s easy for us to adapt to each dog’s unique needs—whether that means early morning walks, medication reminders, or just extra snuggle time. When caring for dogs in their own home, we prioritize consistency and comfort. We maintain your dog’s normal schedule—feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications—so they feel secure and stress-free while you're away. We treat your home with the utmost respect and keep you updated with regular messages, photos, and notes so you always know how your dog is doing. In our home, your dog becomes part of the family. With five of our own friendly, well-socialized dogs and plenty of experience as fosters for a local rescue, we provide a warm, dog-savvy environment where pups feel safe, stimulated, and loved. We have a secure, dog-friendly home with space to play, lounge, and rest—whether your pup prefers fetch in the yard or a cozy nap on the couch. We follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medication (if needed), and preferred activities. We welcome all breeds and sizes, and we’re especially experienced with multi-dog dynamics. Whether your dog is social or needs more one-on-one attention, we adjust accordingly to ensure they’re comfortable and happy.

About: Hey y’all! I have over 6 years of experience with animals of all ages, breeds, and needs! I have a pug named Hubble who is my whole world and I would love to take care of your whole world! Your pet will fit into my routine by adapting fairly well and making changes to my schedule at a short notice. My favorite part of the day is being around animals! I love going out for walks or just playing inside (after going potty of course)! As previously stated, I love being around animals and providing the best care to put your mind at ease!

About: I’ve always been surrounded by dogs my whole life. From playing to taking care of them, I deeply enjoy being surrounded by dogs. They truly love like no other I am a local middle school teacher, so my schedule before and after school are very flexible! I am available before 7:30am, or after 4pm on weekdays. Weekends vary. I’d love to get to know the family and home in which I would be sitting to ensure I know the dos and don'ts the pet already has. I treat all pets as if they were my own.

About: I’ve been a dog lover and owner since age 10. I have experience with dogs of all sizes (including giant dogs), geriatric dogs, dogs that need medications, special diets, and/or diapers, as well as the joys and frustrations of puppyhood. I will treat your dog as if it is my own (and probably give them a few nicknames too). Bring on the wet nose kisses, walks, play time, and cuddles! I’m self-employed so I can be available any time or day of the week. I’m proud to provide flexible and last minute scheduling for my clients. I consider it a privilege to have you trust me with your furry family member(s). I want their experience to be as smooth and consistent as possible while you are away, so I’m happy to follow any and all routines, as “weird” or “complicated” as you might think they are. The last thing I want is for you to be worried about your pet(s) while you are gone. Trust they are in good hands with me.

About: I’ve been house and dog sitting since I was 12 years old, so caring for animals is second nature to me. Growing up, I’ve had my own dog (and she is a diva) and three birds, so I’m super comfortable managing different animal personalities, daily routines, and dietary needs. I have also had 2 cats that I have shared with roommates! The biggest thing that sets me apart is my schedule. Because I study from home, I have a very minimal, flexible weekly routine. That means I would not just dropping by for a quick check-in, I can actually hang out at your house for long stretches or stay the entire day without having to leave. If your pet gets lonely, has separation anxiety, or just loves having a human around 24/7 to cuddle and keep them company, I’m your person! I am able to stay at your house however much you need me there from Thursday nights-Monday nights Sundays: completely available for 24/7 care Mondays: completely available for 24/7 care Tuesdays: available to check on animals before 8am and after 4pm Wednesdays: available to check on animals before 8am and after 4pm Thursdays: available to check on animals before 8am and after 7pm Fridays: completely available for 24/7 care Saturdays: completely available for 24/7 care I will request you give me guidelines of what times you animal eats, much much the animal eats, and how often they tend to go outside/to the litter box. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as regular as possible so your pet is happy, healthy, and ready for you to come home ☺️

About: I I have experience pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, caring for dogs and cats of different breeds and temperaments. My responsibilities have included daily walks, feeding, cleaning litter boxes, giving medications, and providing companionship. I understand how important routine and reassurance are when owners are away. I currently work from home. So my schedule is pretty flexible! Plenty of times to go on walks and playtime! With advanced notice I am very accommodating to meet your needs. I provide loving, reliable care whether pets stay in my home or I care for them in theirs. My top priorities are safety, trust, and maintaining a calm, comfortable environment. I always follow each pet’s routine closely — including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions — to help them feel secure and stress-free.

“Danny stayed at our home and did a fantastic job taking care of our two chronically ill pets (one dog and one cat). He administered subcutaneous injections for them twice daily and was really communicative, letting us know any behavioral changes and checking in frequently. One of our friends even locked him out on accident while we were off grid and he was really resourceful about problem-solving the near crisis! I can’t recommend Danny enough, especially if you have high needs pets.”

About: I have always had dogs. I have trained dogs for years, including hunting dogs. I have helped others with their animals throughout the years as well. I also take care of a farm and their animals from time to time just north of Omaha she would be a reference. I work remotely, so I’m home all the time unless I need to run a quick errand. There is direct access into my apartment, so no need to go through hallways. I will treat them like they’re my own and we walked every day. I have a park here. I also live right next to Lake Zirinsky so taking a walk at the park is easy.

About: I grew up in a small town with horses, dogs, and cats. I have been an animal lover since I was just a little girl. My Aunt had a kenneling facility that I helped with throughout the years and growing up. It was more like a little staycation for furry friends while families traveled for various reasons. Customers always came back relieved because they knew that their pets were in great hands. My responsibilities included keeping the living space sanitary and comfortable, feeding, watering, cleaning, exercising, and monitoring the animals' health and behavior, and obviously a lot of added love and play time! I dog sit for a few people (friends/family) here in and stay at their homes when they are gone and love it so much, I decided to check out Rover! I am hardworking, kind, compassionate, and trustworthy. Whether you kennel your dog or prefer not to I am your go-to girl when it comes to any of these needs! Recently moved back to Omaha and looking for a part time job! Book me today! I recently moved back to Omaha and am working part-time right now. My schedule is very flexible, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I do not board pets at my own home. However, I will care for your loved one/ones following your instructions, feeding, providing fresh water, exercising, administering medication if needed, and cleaning up after him/her. I will also maintain the home's cleanliness and security and keep you updated on your furry friend/friends' status.

FAQs for House Sitting - Herman

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of October 2026, there are 467 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Herman. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Herman walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Herman maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Herman choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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 , 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 .

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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.

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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Herman. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
