About: I’ve taken care of dogs, my whole life, and I will treat every single one of them has my own! Currently have a little white Chihuahua! My work is very flexible and I live two minutes from My work site so your fur babies will never be left alone for longer than four hours. I have a fully fenced 6 feet Privacy fenced yard And a very friendly little Chihuahua that loves all animals! Including cats. My cats are friendly towards any dogs as well!
About: I've grown up with always more than one animal in the household, and loving them is second nature. When my family and friends need someone to help take care of the pets, I am always the first option! I have taken care if lots of cats and dogs, but a few fish throughout the years too. I have experience not only with general pet care such as, feeding, walking, playing/enrichment, but also with giving medications. Some dog breeds I have worked with (or lived with) are German Shepards, Yellow Labs, and mutts that are a mix of medium/bigger dogs or small dachshund mixes. And a lot of different cat personalities! The distant and quiet ones who keep to themselves and the ones who need your attention the second you walk through your door! Either way, I have always loved them no matter what, and continue to love them still. I am about to start a part-time job that has me working either from 10-3 or 11-4. I am always willing to wake up early or stay up late because I have the late start time of the work! In my home, my cat never has a missed meal, he has clean and running water 24/7, and a handful of toys available for enrichment! A handheld laser always nearby for sudden play time is anecessity! As for my client's pets, I will always follow instructions step by step and detail by detail, no matter if feeding times includes something silly to get the fur baby to actually eat their food, I will always do it! And I am not the kind of person to just stop in, do what I need to do, and leave. I will make sure the pet is well loved and knows that I am there for them.
About: I have been pet sitting since I was 12 years old. This has allowed me to build up a variety of experience to meet all your pet’s needs! I initially started providing pet care through walk and potty breaks and have expanded from this to multiple-week long home stays. I have provided consistent care for 5 families, including 10 dogs. These dogs are of different sizes, breeds, and levels of care—everything from a Yorkie runt to an adult Great Dane. I can adapt to all of your needs, whether it be a strict schedule or just providing some love and attention. The most important thing to know about me is that I truly cherish every moment I spend with your furry friends. I have a big heart for animals and promise to always provide warm and loving care! :) I am a full-time student at UNL, which allows me a lot of free time to spend watching your pets. Since I am a student, class will always be a priority, but I still have quite a bit of flexibility with my schedule. If there are ever any changes, I will always communicate this to you ASAP. The first and most important thing I provide is compassion and kindness. You dog will be receiving plenty of belly rubs and pets under my care. I can also adapt from very active pets to those who just want to lay and relax. I have experience doing most pet care like walking, letting them out, playing, feeding, staying overnight, etc. I also appreciate when owners provide a schedule and list of any other important information like allergies, but this is flexible and up to the owner. I find that communication is very important so that there are clear expectations on both sides, ensuring the best care for your pets.
About: I have experience in the animal field. I have pets of my own. I have 2 dogs 2 cats and 3 snakes. I have experience in some vet tech care and vet clinic experience such as restraint, pill giving, injections if needed. I know dog/cat body language. I am skilled in reptiles and exotics as well. Please reach out! I would LOVE to do a drop in visit or stay at your home with your pet. I am flexible with the services I offer. I care for your pets in your home the way you would. With love, care and all the snuggles. For drop in visits I would take them on a longer walk and hangout with them.
About: I’ve had dogs all of my life and I have experience taking care of dogs. I currently have two dogs of my own. I know the patience and time it takes to care for pets. Dogs are not just pets, they are family members with their own unique personalities. I am here to help you because I know it takes a community to care for pets. I am currently a stay at home mom so I have plenty of time to play with and take care of your pups. Right now my schedule is pretty flexible. I can let your pup outside for potty breaks, feed them, give them water, or take them on walks. I am here to offer and extra hand when you need it.
About: I have had both dogs and cats in my household. I don’t currently have a pet, and would love to provide care for your pet! I am a retired teacher with a flexible schedule. I am available weekdays and weekends. Pet care works very well in my current situation and lifestyle. Caring for another person’s pet must align with their preferences, routines, and individual needs. I have cared for each of my pets according to their personality and needs, and my vision for discipline and routine.
“Jack and Katie were absolutely fantastic! They were so incredibly patient with my young puppy who is still going through quite a bit of training. During a very chaotic time for me, I was so relieved to have people I trust watching my girl! Will absolutely be booking with them again in the future. Highly recommend! Thank you both!”
About: I was raised around cats and dogs my entire childhood, and as an adult I now own 2 rabbits. My rabbits will always be closed away in a separate room with a locked door while boarding pets in my home. Although I don't currently own any cats or dogs, I have extensive experience with them and treat all animals as if they were my own. I accept exotic animals as well, just book them as cats and send me a message! I own a house in the Chalco area with a fenced in backyard and have boarded dogs many times here. I have an XL dog crate, leashes, and food and water bowls on hand. I currently work Mon-Fri 8-5pm. I am available weekdays after 5pm and anytime on weekends. I can do drop in visits on my 1pm lunch break or any time after 5pm. I treat your pets as I would treat my own. I am able to pick up dog waste, scoop cat litter, and provide medications as well as food and water.
About: I’ve enjoyed and cared for dogs of all sizes since I was old enough to walk, grew up with German Shepherds, Pit-bulls and a Pomeranian full of energy. I’m currently working remotely and have the flexibility to care for your pet anytime. I manage my schedule two weeks in advance making it a lot easier for everyone. For now I can only offer dog walking services, home-sitting, and day visits. My goal is to not disrupt their routine and help them stay calm while they enjoy some light activity.
About: I’ve helped my momma foster animals- specifically cats weening off the bottle and dogs from the shelter. Have had a plethora of animals growing up. I currently go to dental school at creighton but I have plenty of time for drop ins and some dog walking! Weekends are also easy for me to help anyone in need. My cats are easy as they play with each other while I’m gone, but I play with them while at home and have plenty of dog experience as well from growing up with all types of animals!

“We had Alexis come over to basically do a wellness check on our 20yr old cat. She also gave him his food and cleaned up some of accidents. She provided pictures of him and gave the other cats attention as well! It made us feel better leaving him for so long. Would recommend!!!”
About: I have helped dog sit and take care of many different kinds of dogs with my friends and I am looking into getting into it myself! I am currently in school from 9:30 to 12:30 and working about 20 hrs a week, so I have plenty of time to check up on your pets throughout the day! While I live in an apartment as a student and am unable to provide care in my own home, I'm willing to follow any directions provided to me to insure the safety and happiness of your pets.
“Loren was great! This was my first time using Rover and she made the experience super easy. She was very flexible, quick to respond, and sent daily updates and photos! Would absolutely book again :)”
About: Dogs are my whole life. I have over 15 years experience fostering and rehabilitating dogs for local rescues. I've worked in the pet industry for about 6 years previously as a dog walker, sitter, day care attendant and trainer. I'm constantly studying dog behavior science and training methods. I use modern positive reinforcement dog training/teaching techniques. I speak dog. Owner of Pawsitive Impact LLC I am self employed and I am available all throughout the day. Caring for pets is my daily priority. Also my girlfriend works from home m-f and we are homebodies, so your pup will rarely be home alone. My preferred hours for walks are between 8am - 6pm I have a fully fenced yard and 4 dogs and 2 cats of my own. For my boarding clients, your dog will have their own room so they can be away from my dogs and cats if needed. I have a dog room in my basement I use for boarding. In the dog room we have couches and a TV to help your dog feel right at home. I only take one one boarding client at at time to ensure your dog will get the most of of their time with me. I treat every dog I meet as if they are my own and I do every thing I can in order to help them be happy and comfortable.
About: I have pet sat since I was 13 years old off and on for friends and family. Then at 20 I got on an app called wag and booked with strangers to pet sit there. I was in a difrent city and it's not as popular here so I thought I'd give rover a try! I love getting to know new animals and can't wait to see how many I get to know on here. Im working part time right now Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 3-6. So ive got plenty of extra time on my hands to feed, and play with your cats or dogs ! For dogs I'll go on walks, lay on the couch with them, feed as instructed, play fetch, and go to the dog park (if the dog gets along well with other animals). For cats I'd lay on the couch with them, play with them, feed as instructed, and change litter as needed.
“Liz was dependable and followed all instructions perfectly. She also did a great job with staying in communication throughout her time as our pet sitter and left the pet with a clean and sanitary environment on the last day. We WILL be hiring Liz again! Thanks for everything and well done!”

Jason is great! He dropped in to meet the new pup and spend time with our family. He’s punctual, he asks questions about how the new pup is getting along and how the pack is integrating, and he enjoys spending time with our fur babies. Thank you, Jason! We appreciate you being a part of our family and spending time with us.
Allisyn has been an amazing and consistent dog sitter for us! She always goes above and beyond, and we feel completely comfortable knowing our dog is in such good hands with her. It’s obvious how much she genuinely cares for our dog, and we truly feel like she loves her as much as we do. We couldn’t recommend Allisyn enough! We are so thankful for her!
Megan is WONDERFUL with Hank. I can tell she really loves to see him and is very communicative and flexible with care! I’ve asked her to use certain equipment, give meds, and a few other things and she’s always done what I’ve asked. Terrific human and dog person! 10/10 would recommend and will be!
Elizabeth was a wonderful pet sitter. This was my first time using Rover, and she put me at ease with her excellent communication, and punctuality. She followed directions, sent updates and pictures, and my puppy loved her right away. I recommend Elizabeth, and plan to use her again in the near future. Excellent first impression!

The average cost of Dog Sitting in La Vista is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $37 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.

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.
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 La Vista 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!
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 .
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.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
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.
