“Leanne went above and beyond for our puppy, not just on regular days, but also when he was sick. I don’t know what we would’ve done without you, Leanne - thank you so much for everything!!”
“We always appreciate Abby and she takes great care of our dog! We love all the updates and communication. She is very flexible and committed too. Would 100% recommend her!!”
“Ashley did a wonderful job watching our two dogs! She was super professional and we felt so comfortable knowing our pets were with her, even when our oldest dog got a stomach bug a few days prior. She even photos, videos and updates every day! We definitely plan to book with her again.”
“Mya was attentive to all of our pets, and did a great job of communicating questions or issues to us in a timely manner. The house was just as we had left it. We had zero concerns about her ability to care for our animals. She is responsible and showed up when she said she would be there. Definitely will have Mya house-sit for us again.”
“Kalob was very professional, courteous and punctual too. Scout enjoyed his time with Kalob and he even brought Scout treats! I would definitely have him watch Scout again!”
“Kayla is the best! Super responsive and flexible. One of our dogs is a big anxious boy (around 70 lbs) and she always knows how to keep him at ease. She is our go to sitter whenever we need one!”
“Dom was an amazing dog sitter! We have 4 pups and dom did a killer job taking care of them and our home while we were gone. Will definitely be calling Dom if we need a sitter in the future!”
“Alaina is the best! She was so great at meeting ours & our dog's needs and she exceeded our expectations. She sent numerous pictures each day & gave a rundown of how he was doing. We will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Kindra did a wonderful job watching our dog and house! She sat for us for a whole week, and our dog clearly loved every minute of it: we came back to a happy, tired, well-loved pup who showed no signs of stress or anxiety. We got a nightly update on how much our dog ate and her general well-being, as well as additional updates whenever we asked for them. Kindra responded to every message very quickly, usually within a few minutes. Our dog can be a little stubborn, and Kindra did an amazing job maintaining all the house rules, so we haven't come back to a dog who's picked up a bunch of bad habits (which has happened with other sitters). And our house was also well cared for; Kindra respected the space and treated it like her own home. We will absolutely be requesting her again. She's our dream sitter: responsible, communicative, friendly, extremely trustworthy and considerate and attentive. And our dog clearly loves her! We can't recommend her highly enough.”
About: I’ve taken care of every kind of dog and cat since I was 12. I have experience with crate training dogs and maintaining the commands that my client’s use with their dog/cat. I’m very flexible to my client’s needs and always want to exceed their expectations. I’m currently a full time student, so I’ll be available mostly on the weekends to dogsit/catsit. However, I can always work with both of our schedules to accommodate drop ins during the week! I live in an apartment in downtown Lincoln, so it’s not very ideal for pet sitting. I’ve dog sat in multiple families homes, and there hasn’t been any issues or complaints. If it’s over the weekends, I can spend more time caring for your fur baby, even if that involves spending the day or night there too!
“Marie took such good care of Hunter! She took him on lots of walks and made sure he got the attention he needed. Marie clearly likes dogs and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.”
“Ella took care of our pets for a week. Upon first meeting her via the video chat, she was easy to communicate with and followed through on calling at the set up time to call. She also came in person to meet our pets and get the care run down on time. She was friendly and professional. She clearly communicated her schedule and plan for letting our dog out. She stayed at our home over the week and we came back to everything looking the same. The only thing I would have liked was a little quicker response to texts (initially it took a little longer than expected to her if she was available) and more frequent check-ins with pet pictures would have been nice. But otherwise we really appreciated her care of our pets and will check to see if she is available again in the future.”
“Hannah was amazing! We will definitely be booking her again. She sent us photos while we were gone which was so sweet. She left the house clean after her stay, she was respectful and very professional. I will be recommending her to all my friends!”
About: I have had animals my entire life! Mostly dogs that have lived well into their teens, but also cats. Most recently I had my dog Bella for over 12 years and the last 3 we traveled the country try between Seattle and Miami by car. She unfortunately passed due to cancer and not ready to own an animal, but still love having them around . I am great at playing with animals to keep them engaged and teaching commands. I also can accommodate animals to their needs if they need medicine or special assistance. I work from home for an agency based in Canada. This means that your animal wouldn’t need to be locked up all day if they stay at my house my flexible schedule also also allows me to add walks in the day and play time so your dog isn’t in a crate all day. I also have a yard big enough for throwing sticks for added fun! I do have a fenced in yard that would allow for your dog to run around. I also wouldn’t mind going to someone’s house if I needed to as well as I am mobile.
About: I love spending time with animals and getting to meet all different types of breeds while getting to watch them and care for them at the same time. I am going to school part time right now and have lots of extra free time spent at home for taking care of pets. I am okay with having pets in my home as well as traveling to others homes to care for the animals. I treat the animals i watch as if they are my own making sure i tend to their needs and make them feel safe and cared for!

Nathan S.Star Sitter
“I lived with Nate for a few years, and that entire time he had his own dog named Bella that was just the happiest and sweetest dog ever. That’s a reflection in how Nate treated her and how much he loved her. Honestly, she was probably treated better than some people treat their kids. He’s going to love any pet he comes across during his time as a caregiver, and they’re going to love him just as much.”
