“We absolutely love Rachel! She kept us up to date on our fur babies, sending cute photos and kind notes with each rover card. Our dog and cat were well loved while we were out of town.”
“Angie was wonderful!!! She took such good care of our (not spoiled) cats. We explained how to feed them, and the litter box cleaning, and she did it perfectly!! I texted and asked if she could let my sister in to get my tax information (I was in Omaha and needed to file my taxes) and she helped me out with that! Angie went above and beyond in helping us with our cats. I can not say enough good things about Angie!! We will use her again!! We were so happy with how she took care of our cats!!!! Thank you, Angie!!!”
“Allison did a perfect job checking in on my two cats while I was out of town. Booking her was fast and easy. She is punctual, respectful, follows directions, and is very communicative. She gave a thorough update and went above and beyond in her care. I definitely recommend booking with her. Thanks again, Allison!”
“Ali is an amazing, kind and compassionate animal advocate. Ali was more than willing to meet with me a few times before the visit to ensure that we both felt comfortable with her in care of our pets. She's thoughtful and very thorough when it comes to asking the right questions and assuring the pet owner's comfort. 10/10 would recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter.”

About: Pets and animals have been a part of my life since I was a small girl. My last dog has gone over the rainbow bridge and I have been looking for ways to share my love for fur babies ever since. I believe that pets are family and need to be treated as such. By providing high-quality petsitting, I want owners to not feel any anxiety while they are away from their fur babies. I have had dogs that needed daily medication, I have taken care of an epileptic dog, and dogs with high anxiety/high energy with high success. I know that every pet is different and will follow any and all instructions exactly as they are given to ensure the best quality of service! I can’t wait to meet your fluffy family members!
About: I worked at a Vet Clinic for five years where I worked with dogs of all ages. My specialty was senior dogs. I consider myself patient and loving. I’m currently in between being done with my masters degree and looking for a new job with my degree. I’m taking a break between now and then so I have plenty of time to provide services ! I have one dog who is very friendly to other animals. I have one cat who is very independent and will not be a bother to any other friends.
About: I have always loved animals since I was a child. I always wanted to be a dolphin trainer and a zookeeper when I was little. That is still a dream of mine, but life has thrown me some curveballs, that has changed my goals/steps in life at this moment. I first worked at my first animal clinic job in 2010-2011, my first job ever, when I was a junior in high school. It was one of the best jobs I have ever had. I decided that working at a animal clinic would be the best job for me until I could work at a zoo. My favorite subject in school was science and animal studies. I went to college and got my associate's in science, and got a bachelor's in zoology and general studies, with a minor in psychology and half minor in scuba diving. I then worked at my second animal hospital in 2022-2023. I loved that job so much because I got to work and do so many things with dogs and cats, as well as many other types of pets. I have cleaned kennels and runs. I have cleaned litter boxes. I have fed and gave water to dogs and cats. I have given medication to dogs and cats. I have given shots to cats. I have bathed dogs and cats. I have taken dogs out on walks. I have taken dogs out to potty. I have done fecal matter samples. I have cleaned up fecal matter outside in the yard as well as cleaned messes including fecal matter, urine and vomit. I am a stay-at-home mom, with both kids at school, so I have the flexibility to take care of pets all day from Monday to Sunday allowing for full day of playtime and belly rubs. Dogs are let out first thing in the morning and many times throughout the day. I do have a dog in the house already, but he loves other dogs and could use the company since we have moved from his friend (my mom’s dog). I can easily separate dogs if a friendly connection doesn’t work. I can keep our dog separate. I have a safe outside leash out front and will sit out there while dogs are out. I would love to make this a full-time job. I enjoy being with dogs and cats all the time. I definitely will make your pets feel like they are at home and very loved. I have a nice yard and I have a park at walking distance, and safe and nice neighborhood to walk dogs. I have extra leashes on hand, I have treats as well and doggy bags. I have a friendly dog at home, that gets along with other dogs and cats. I do have a crate if any dog needs to be crated. I have plenty of blankets as well. I have litter boxes all around the house and change them regularly.
About: I’ve always had dogs growing up & always helped with walking them, feeding them, giving them all the extra snuggles, etc. I have watched my friends pets when they are away many times & I would love to watch your furry friends & help out with whatever is needed! I am currently working part time at a dance studio Monday & Tuesday nights in Colfax at 4:45-7/8pm so that would be the only thing to work around. I would let the dog(s) as much exercise or playtime as needed or wanted. I also have a 3 year old dog who would love a play date if your pet(s) were in my home.
About: I grew up on farm taking care of dogs since I was little. Would watch neighbors animals for them . Feeding, walking, bathing their pet. I’m currently not working. I’m available to watch the dogs anytime during the week and on the weekends. I can’t board at my place, but I’m willing make it work. I have a red heeler. I can either crate your dog,cuddle and give your dogs belly rubs, baths. Overall taking good care of your pet.
About: I’ve had cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, and horses growing up. Having a wide range of animals growing up has helped me learn what a pet is wanting and needing. I’m currently a college student, my evening can be flexible as well as my weekends! Willing to work with owners to create a balance that works for me and your pets. I would prefer to have your pet in your home! I think that will be best for your pets safety and mine too. I’m willing to do what the owner is wanting for their pets comfortability.
“Took good care of my dog. She gave him a bath and he smells like butterscotch. She even went back for an unscheduled last moment visit to check on the dog when I asked her because the dog was freaking out so much during my long day at work.”
About: I have been caring for all kinds of animals since I was 11 years old! I can do anything from giving your animal medicine or just take them on a walk! I love animals more than anything. I currently work part time four days a week for a few hours, so I have plenty of time to care for your furry baby! I can crate your dog or leave them out roaming. I can take them out on a leash or let them run free! Whatever you need.
About: I've had dogs and cats all my life and I've been the primary caretaker of the pets since I turned 12. I love dogs of any and all sizes and ages. I work part-time Wednesday’s and Saturday’s mainly. I have two dogs and two cats of my own that I love more than anything in this world. Friends and family rely on me for all their pet advice and needs. I’m excited to begin working with you and your dog(s)! I work part time, but my pets are my whole life. I have two pit Bull rescues with digestion issues and spend a lot of time bettering their quality of life. On days off work I spend with my dogs, when the whether allows we go on walks or to the dog park, or hang out cuddling on other days. Drop in services: Drop in visits for me tend to contain anything the client needs. Whether that be mid-day meal times, a quick potty break, both, or more! Whatever you feel your pup needs from a drop in visit I’m more than happy to provide. Dog walking: I love walks, I always try to find trails nearby we can walk but even just walking around town can be fun! I always carry go-bags with us to ensure we leave no dog-bombs behind. If your dog requires any extra enrichment while on walks I’d be happy to provide (run time, play time, etc.).

“Autumn is an incredible puppy sitter! We left our little girl with her over four nights and she was treated to tons of snuggles, walks, and treats. She even came home with a new little squeaker toy from Autumn’s local puppy bakery. Autumn was super quick to respond to check in texts and even sent little pictures from their adventures. It was so nice for us to travel without having to worry about our fur child, knowing she was in excellent hands. We look forward to asking her to watch our Zaley again!”
