About: Hi, Im Terah, and for as long as Ive been alive, I've helped take care or any dog from teensie weensie to Clifford sized. I'm 21 years old, and have 3 years of health science experience where I learned the basics of pet first aid and cpr. I later started working at Camp Bow Wow as a dog trainer and boarder in Kansas City where I was certified a couple years back. I soon learned what I wanted to do with my life. My dog at home is the happiest girl in the world it seems. She has some sort of grass allergy in her right ear the requires daily and weekly care to ensure shes not uncomfortable. I totally understand any specific needs such as medication, or any schedule that they follow on any regular day. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns involving your critters' and the care I provide. I love what I do! I wake up every morning around 8am and let Raven outside to potty. She'll pee and poop at the same times everyday. Then I wipe out her ear and clean the access ear wax and puss that accumulates overnight. Then I wash, medicate and lotion it. She'll eat breakfast and we will play for a little bit whenever I get my coffee made and my medications taken. After we've eaten, been outside, and play, its time for her to go back to sleep for a couple hours until she goes back outside before I head off to work. Whenever I get back from work at night the first thing I do is let Raven outside and feed her dinner. Then she'll play and hangout for a couple hours before its time to hit the hay for the night. She is on a great schedule, so she knows when it's time for something. If she can't get my attention she has bells on the door handle shes trained to ring just in case, or scoot her bowl around on the floor to make noise. I promise to respect your home and follow any care routine fur your babies just as if you were there. I promise that they will be as comfortable and as happy as possible while your away. I cant stress this enough, I love what I do, everyday.

“Sierra did a wonderful job of taking care of our kitties while we were out of town! She also went above and beyond by offering to bring mail & packages inside. She is very sweet and communicative, and our cats (the ones who didn’t hide) loved her. 😊 100% recommend.”

Animals are not just‘s eyes They are just like our kids and will be treated with nothing but love while in my care. Every animal is different so depending on the pets needs, I am available to take them out as often as I need play with them. They have free range in my home. If there is any specific needs with feeding schedule potty schedule, please send with your loved one and it will be followed. I live on a ranch with Vet in yards big barn dominium house with lots of room for animals to free range in the home. I also work from home so I can be there for any specific feeding schedule, potty schedule, etc..

“Straight forward, no issues. She didn't need a whole lot of instruction, she seemed to know the general gist of how my good boy (Siberian husky) would typically respond to a new person, so she was patient and kind with him as well as with my timid cat. Hope she will be available next time. Highly recommend.”

About: I loved animals ever since I was a kid and raised and trained my dog Zephyr since he was a year old. I adore all animals care for two rodents of my own named Orchid and Meadow. I often petsit for my family and friends and have taken care of a wide variety of animals. I've taken care of pets of all ages from puppies to my senior dog who currently has from dementia. I am very patient and licensed CNA so I know how to handle a mess. I am a freshman in college though my classes are very light. I'm free after 9am on Mondays and Wednesdays, Tuesdays and Thursdays I'm free after 12:15 though I can come in earlier anytime before 9, Fridays can vary for me but I'm typically free after 9-10 am though sometimes if I have an exam it might be an hour or so later though I can always make arrangements if necessary. I care for pets by following their routine, spending lots of time with them, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m respectful of my client's homes and always clean up after the pets and leave everything as I found it. I After a procedure my dog needed to be crate trained so I know how to handle that.

About: I’ve been the go to pet sitter for family members and friends. Whether it’s keeping them company for a couple hours to just stopping by to let them out and check their food/water to watching them for multiple days. I work full time and don’t have the ability to work from home. On weekdays after 5pm I’m free to hang out with your pups! During the weekend I have more flexibility to watch or check on your pets. I don’t have any pets and currently live in an apartment complex. There is a lot of open grass space around my apartment complex and is in a good area to walk in. If you prefer your pup be in a crate if I have to leave that will need to be provided, but as long as they are house trained I have no problem with your dog free-roaming my apartment.

I learned so much about adapting to the different needs of each animals and how to provide them the highest level of care.

I would love to care for your pets, whether it be an hour a day or all day. I have been trained on basic behavioral training and corrections and believe that old dogs can in fact learn new tricks 😉. i have grown up around all different types of pets and it is always fun getting to know everyones unique personality and creating a special bond with them. i have am home most of the day Monday-Fridat, but may have to run out for a few house here and there. Weekends j am usually unless we have something planned. i would be delighted to spend time in the company of your fur baby ! i like to get pets all the exercise that they need when i am with them, wether that’s playing a few games of tug of war and jogging around in the back yard or running around the neighborhood or park a few times!

About: Every dog is different and I can adapt to his or her personality. I have two doodles, and a German Shorthaired Pointer of my own. Animals are my passion and I would love nothing more than to spend time with as many furry friends as possible. I work from home in the Northland Monday through Friday. My schedule allows plenty of flexibility to come and go when a furry friend needs me. For my dogs, food time is taken very seriously as I'm sure it is in every home! I feed my pets twice a day and provide fresh water. Treats are always given after potty of course! There will be nicknames and tons of pets!!!

About: Dogs have been a part of my family since I was a little girl, and caring for them has always been something close to my heart. Over the years, I’ve enjoyed helping neighbors, coworkers, friends, and family members with dog sitting and dog walking. Pet care is something I genuinely enjoy, and I would make it a priority in my daily and weekly routine. I understand the importance of keeping pets on their regular schedules for feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I would plan my schedule around each pet’s individual needs to ensure they receive dependable, compassionate care and feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I always make sure pets are comfortable and safe in my home and also in their home. I make to follow their regular routines for walking, feeding, playing and any other instructions their families provide. I know it’s hard for pets to be away from their families so it is my priority to give them the attention and love they need. Every pet gets treated like family so I want families to know their pet is in the hands of someone who is friendly, caring and dependable.

About: I love dogs. I grew up showing basset hounds and had two labs before I went to grad school. Now I have a cute little 17lb bichon. All of my other dogs were what I affectionately call "wash and wear" dogs- he's the first that requires regular grooming. He's so cute- it's totally worth it. I like walking in the morning when it's cool and beautiful. Since I've spent so much of my life around dogs, I'm pretty good at reading their body language. I can tell if something makes them feel nervous or threatened and can take steps to help. It's really important for dogs to get out and have an adventure every day- it's so good for their attitude as well as their health! I prefer older or more sedentary dogs- I'm not a runner!

About: I am a recent college graduate and frequently volunteer with KCPP (every Sunday) doing dogs day out and am also in the process of becoming a foster. I have experience with dogs ranging from LARGE to small, and have a hard headed pitbull at home. I love all dogs and would love to become a frequent reliable sitter. I have TONS of repeat clients on and off of rover and would love to build a relationship with you and your pets! I have an apartment with a patio and open door. Nova spends a lot of time on the patio and we take long walks atleast every 4 hours including small potty breaks. I keep my dog very active and feed her twice daily, she’s allowed on furniture and in my bed. Dog sitting is currently my only source of income and has my full attention! I have tons of free time in my search for a full time job after recently graduating. I can do both! I often stay in my regular clients home and would need to do a meet and greet with my dog beforehand.

About: Hi! I’m an animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I have two dogs and three cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets like family. I also have experience with rescue animals and understand that every pet has their own unique personality, needs, and comfort level. I’m patient, compassionate, and committed to making sure every animal feels safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. Whether your pet loves going on walks, playing, cuddling, or simply relaxing, I’ll do my best to make them feel right at home. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I’ll treat your furry friends with the same love, attention, and care that I give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! ❤️🐶🐱 I do pet care full time and when I’m not caring for your pets I’m at home spending time with mine. I have 2 dogs and 3 cats who are my world and I love nothing more than to snuggle with them on my couch and binge watch a good series! My dogs go out every 2-4 hours and my cats never go outdoors. Anytime my dogs go outside they’re always on a leash and supervised.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Kearney

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Kearney is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $29 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 1,640 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Kearney. 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 Kearney. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.
