“Mikayla was absolutely wonderful in her care for our two cats while we were away! When we returned, you could tell they had been treated well and loved. Mikayla sent a couple of pictures which showed they were just fine, and that helped calm my sister immensely about her younger cat. We have complete confidence in Mikayla and will be happy to book her again. Thank you, Mikayla!! You allowed us to really enjoy a needed time away to visit family.”

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 Los Angeles. 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’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, having grown up on a farm where caring for them was part of everyday life. That experience gave me a strong understanding of animal behavior and the importance of patience, consistency, and kindness. Over the years, I’ve cared for many dogs and cats, both my own and those belonging to friends and family. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or simply providing comfort and companionship, I take pride in creating a safe and loving environment for every pet. My background has taught me to adapt to each animal’s unique personality and needs. From energetic puppies to calm senior pets, I ensure every furry friend receives the attention, affection, and reliability they deserve. I work a standard 8–5 p.m. schedule Monday through Friday, but my mornings, evenings, and weekends are wide open for pet care. I love starting or ending my day with walks, playtime, and some quality time with furry friends — it’s the best part of my routine! I’m reliable, communicative, and always make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need, no matter what time of day. Whether it’s an evening walk, weekend stay, or a quick drop-in visit, I’m happy to make it work for you and your pets. When caring for pets, my top priority is always their safety, comfort, and happiness. I take the time to get to know each pet’s routine, personality, and preferences so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free — whether I’m in my home or yours. In your home, I make sure pets stay in their normal environment and routine, with plenty of love, play, and supervision. I pay close attention to details like feeding instructions, leash safety, and any special needs or medications. If pets are with me, they’ll enjoy a calm, loving atmosphere with lots of attention and affection. I treat every dog and cat as if they were my own — with patience, kindness, and respect. You can always expect regular updates, photos, and open communication so you feel completely at ease while you’re away.

About: I have worked at a veterinary clinic as a kennel assistant, at a doggy daycare as park staff, and at a wildlife rehab as seasonal staff. These jobs have required me to monitor behavior and symptoms to ensure the health and safety of all involved. I work part time, leaving me with much time for looking after animals. I am off on weekends and am looking for something full-filling to fill that time. My shifts at my job are usually 6 hours but no more than 8. In high school, I watched many pets in my hometown while their families were away. Lists and rules are very important to me so that I know exactly what is expected and how your furry family member would have the best experience.

About: Dogs and cats have been a big part of my life since I was a baby. My family never had less than 4 dogs at a time all different breeds and different sizes! I have taken care of friends and family's dogs since I was old enough to be home alone. I have also ridden horses and worked at several barns that had lots of cats and dogs, including breeding large mastiffs and mini golden doodles, that I helped take care of. My main hobby when I want to get out of the house is training my own dogs on and off leash. Not only have I grown up with dogs and cats, I have also worked as a vet assistant for a traveling vet working with puppies all the way up to seniors. I would love to share my love with your pets. I have plenty of time to play with and take care of your pets! We have 2 very friendly dogs of our own that we take out daily for exercise. I am available all times of the day and can take on last minute requests. I have two very friendly dogs and lots of places to take your dogs on walks or go play at a park in my area. Everything is your choice, I can crate your dog when needed if you chose, we could have lot of activities or none, all your choice! If you chose for me to come to your home, I can follow whatever routine you would like!

About: I’ve had family dogs my whole life and love to do things outdoors with my dogs. I have two dogs right now one old and one a puppy both with completely different personalities. I’m a student at the university of Nebraska so weekends and afternoons are when I’m most available. I don’t have many other commitments besides classes so I’m very available. I live in my family’s home in Minnesota during summer and breaks but live in apartment in Lincoln during the school year. Brining pets to my apartment wouldn’t work, so I would have to go to clients home.

About: Hello, my name is Tracy and I'm a total dog person! Although I can't have a furry friend at home due to my living situation, I volunteer as a dog walker at the local capital humane society here in town. I've had the pleasure of working with dogs of all breeds and sizes, from tiny Chihuahuas to massive Great Danes! There's nothing better than seeing their tails wag and spoiling them with pets and treats. My dream is to own a large piece of land where I can provide a forever home for senior and handicapped animals. Until then, I'll continue to volunteer and do my part to help these amazing companions! I currently work full time and have a part time job on top of that i also volunteer 1 day a week at the capital humane society as a dog walker! i enjoy taking walks around the park and or neighborhood, after our long walk then we would go to the dog park and meet all our other furry friends!

About: While I do not possess professional experience in animal care, I am very active in the animal world. I love time spent at shelters with animals that do not get much attention otherwise. I have always been a pet owner and animal “enthusiast”. My girlfriend is a popular sitter on Rover and I have assisted her in some of her sits to get a feel for it. I would love to care for your pets as if they were my own! I am a current student at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln so do bare in mind I will have classes I must attend during the day, so I will not be able to keep watch of pets during certain times of the day during the week. I currently do not have any pets however I will use any and all safety tools that have been put in place by any owners/pets I have contact with!

About: I have had dogs and cats in the past, and am now the proud owner of two kitties! Ramona and Lucy keep me busy at home, but have been a Rover sitter for years. I love getting to meet new pets! I live and work in Lincoln! I work mostly weekdays and occasional weekends, the specific days vary which allows me to be pretty flexible. My day is 7:30a to 4p, so if you need a visit early in the morning I can do that! Overall I feel I have plenty of time in my schedule and would love to put that time to good use. My girls at home are my children! They’re spoiled with all of our love and attention. I understand that pets love their home, routine, and familiar smells. Trust that I will respect your pet’s nerves while you’re gone (if they have any). You’re their person, but they’ll be safe and loved in your absence.

Woods Park, Lincoln, NE, 68510

About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for pets, from childhood dogs and cats to hands-on work in veterinary clinics. For the past six years, I’ve worked in small animal vet clinics as a kennel technician and veterinary assistant, where I’ve cared for pets with a wide range of personalities and needs. I’m experienced in safely and sensitively handling pets who may be anxious, reactive, or uncomfortable with strangers. I’m comfortable administering medications, including insulin injections for diabetic pets, and I have experience caring for senior pets, pets with chronic conditions, those recovering from surgery, and pets on special diets. I also have experience with puppies and can reinforce basic training such as house-training and routine consistency. My clinical background has trained me to read pet body language, recognize stress signals early, and prevent issues before they escalate. You can expect consistent communication and detailed updates while your pet is in my care. I treat every pet like my own while maintaining professional standards, with a strong focus on safety, comfort, and trust, for both pets and their owners. I am a full-time college student. However, my class schedule allows for plenty of flexibility, and studying can happen anywhere. Your furry friends always fit into my schedule! I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and any special instructions. With my veterinary clinic experience, I prioritize safety by monitoring behavior and health, securing doors and leashes, and preventing stress or hazards. I respect my clients’ homes and provide consistent communication and detailed updates so you can feel confident while you’re away.

Hannah’s communication was wonderful! My kitties were well taken care of. This was the first time that I had someone outside of family take care of them while I was away. I didn’t have any worries that they weren’t getting any attention or affection. I definitely will have Hannah on the top of my list to contact the next time I have to be gone for a few days.

Jenica is great with Argos! He warmed up to her quickly. I appreciate that she takes the time to fill out the "report card" and tell me a little bit about their time together, especially since I'm transitioning to being in the office so often versus being at home for 6 months. She responds quickly, and she's just very kind overall. I'll be continuing to book with her for our drop-ins!

Rebecca is fantastic! I’d trust her and her family with any one of my pets—drop-ins, boarding, you name it. She takes great care of every animal and is so kind, thoughtful, communicative, and easy to work with. You (and your pets!) lucky to have her as a sitter.
