Cat Sitting Lincoln

“Alyssa is very reliable, on time, and took wonderful care of my cat, Oggy. I really appreciated the updates with photos and notes, it made me feel so much more relaxed while I was away. When I got home, my cat was happy and comfortable. I would definitely book with her again.”

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.

“Olivia and Piper did a wonderful job looking after my cats. Both of my boys are particularly skittish and they made it their mission to win them over. I would absolutely book them again!”

“Evelyn took great care of our cats. We loved all the pictures & could see that she was very sweet with them. She even cleaned up their plates & things they knocked over. We will plan to request her help next time we travel.”

“Emilia did an excellent job taking care of our two cats/house-sitting for three+ weeks. She did not hesitate to ask questions and shared detailed updates with us. When we got back, the cats were happy, the house was so clean, and we could not have asked for a more caring and responsible person to help us out. Thank you Emilia!”

About: I have been with pets my whole life. When growing up I had multiple cats in our house and I also grew up with a small dog. Once I moved out I got my own cat and raised him and now we have 2 larger dogs and 3 cats. I do work 7-4 Monday through Friday so I would not be able to hangout with your pet between those times I am a teacher and I’m on summer break with a little serving job so I can come by your house many times throughout the day. I will come and play with your pets, feed them how you explain to, bring them on walks or outside to get some energy out when needed.

“Mia does an amazing job with our 2 dogs! She is incredibly responsible and dependable. Upon meeting our dogs for the first time, you could tell she was an animal lover, because our dogs absolutely loved her! One of our dogs can be hesitant with new people but she loved Mia immediately. Mia is professional and timely. She treats our dogs like they are her own, she cares for them, she loves them, and she is incredibly good at what she does. I am so blessed that we have Mia to be there to help when we can't be. I would recommend Mia to anyone who has animals that they love dearly.”

About: I have been taking care of pets for about 10 years and have started pet sitting the last 2 years. I have walked, and bathed pets for many years. I am offering pet sitting, dog walking and drop in visits! I am currently working part time in the evenings and taking classes two days a week so I will have plenty of time to spend with your pet! I can crate animals if needed and love to play and cuddle dogs and other pets as well. I can also keep up with training if needed.

About: I have been pet sitting professionally for about 5 years! Only recently have a stopped due to me moving to Nebraska for college. I have had a wide range of clientele from dogs to cats to birds and even large animals! I am currently a sophomore in college at the University of Nebraska with that being said I am available after 2pm most days and Tuesdays and Thursdays after 4pm, I am also available most weekends! I have a very good attention to detail, I have worked in a vets office, as well as very dependable and trustworthy! I also am very big on an open line of communication.

About: I have always loved dog. I have two of my own. I also enjoy cats a lot! I have worked with lots of different breeds of dogs. I am currently a college student! I have lots of time in my day to pet sit and take your dog on a walk or outside! Animals bring me joy and I miss mine at home. I am a very respectful person and would be a great dog walker/sitter. I enjoy my time with any dogs and miss mine at home.

About: Hi, I'm McGivney! My passion for animal care started all the way back in the 5th grade when I landed my first pet-sitting job letting out a neighbor's dog. Throughout my childhood, I continued looking after pets for my neighbors, building a reputation for being reliable, attentive, and caring. ​Today, I work as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). In my professional life, I love developing deep, trusting relationships with people, and I bring that exact same dedication, patience, and meticulous attention to detail when caring for animals. Because of my medical background, I am incredibly comfortable following strict care schedules, following complex routines, and administering oral medications precisely. ​I truly love all creatures! Beyond dogs and cats, I have experience handling and caring for a wide variety of animals, including fish, bearded dragons, geckos, frogs, and snakes. Whether your pet has fur, scales, or fins, I am super comfortable meeting their unique needs and ensuring they feel safe, loved, and properly looked after. ​I live in a comfortable, clean 700 sq. ft. apartment and strictly host only one cat or dog client family at a time to guarantee your pet gets my undivided attention and a stress-free environment. I can't wait to meet your animals and provide you with absolute peace of mind while you are away! Because I work in healthcare, my daily schedule varies, which actually makes me highly adaptable! No matter what my day looks like, your pet's established routine is my top priority. A typical day of care includes structured feeding times, plenty of fresh water, regular bathroom breaks, and dedicated one-on-one attention. I love staying active, so if I am walking or drop-sitting a dog, we will go on fun neighborhood walks and have plenty of playtime. If I am sitting a cat or a reptile, I focus on spending quality, calm time with them, respecting their space, and keeping their environment clean and secure. Pet parents can expect absolute reliability, clear communication, and total peace of mind. I know how stressful it can be to leave your family member with someone new, so I send daily photo updates and quick text check-ins after every visit or walk. My home is a clean, calm, and smoke-free environment. Safety and trust are the absolute core of my pet-sitting philosophy. Coming from a CNA background, I am professionally trained to notice subtle changes in behavior, monitor well-being, and maintain a highly organized, clean environment. When pets are in my 700-square-foot apartment, they enjoy a calm and securely enclosed space. To ensure maximum safety and a stress-free environment, I enforce a strict policy of only hosting one dog or cat family at a time—your pet will never be forced to share space with another strange cat or dog. Out on walks, your dog's safety is my top priority. I always keep dogs securely attached to standard, heavy-duty leashes (I never use unpredictable retractable leashes) and maintain complete awareness of our surroundings to avoid any tense interactions with off-leash neighborhood dogs. For small animals, reptiles, and cats, I ensure all enclosures are double-checked and entry doors are tightly secured before anyone is let out for supervised stretching or play. I treat your pets with the same high level of protective care and responsibility I use every day in my healthcare career.

About: Leaving your furry family members behind is never easy, which is why I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. Whether your companion is a playful puppy learning the ropes or a sweet senior needing a gentle touch, I provide attentive, personalized care tailored to their exact routine. With a strong focus on safety, clear daily updates, and plenty of love, my goal is to give you total peace of mind while you're away and give your pet a fun, comfortable experience right at home. I maintain a structured daily routine that centers around regular feeding times, consistent potty breaks, and plenty of playtime. Whether your pet thrives on high-energy morning walks or quiet evening cuddles, I seamlessly integrate their normal routine into my day to keep them happy and comfortable. Safety and comfort are my absolute top priorities. In my home, I maintain a clean, pet-proofed environment free of hazards, with designated quiet zones for resting and secure outdoor areas for play. For in-home visits, I strictly follow your pet's exact boundaries, dietary rules, and home guidelines to ensure a stress-free experience from start to finish.

About: Animals have been the heartbeat of my home for as long as I can remember. With over 15 years of personal experience raising both dogs and cats, and 5+ years of professional pet sitting, I’ve navigated everything from puppy energy to senior care. I pride myself on being an 'animal magnet'—I’ve truly never met a pet I couldn't bond with! When your furry family member is with me, they aren't just being watched; they are being loved, played with, and treated with the same dedicated care I give my own. Because I’m a stay-at-home mom, your pet becomes a natural part of my daily rhythm! My schedule offers the ultimate flexibility for your furry friends. Once the school drop-off is done, my late mornings and early afternoons are wide open and dedicated to long walks, playtime, and giving your pets the midday attention they crave while you're at work. I also offer a 'Night Owl' service—after my own kids are tucked in, I love headed out for one last evening visit. It’s my favorite time of day to provide those quiet, late-night cuddles and a final potty break, ensuring your pet is relaxed and sleepy before bed. My Approach to Pet Care Whether I am stopping by for a quick check-in or a long afternoon visit, my priority is safety, stimulation, and affection. Here is how I handle each service: 🚶 Dog Walking (Energy & Enrichment) The Route: I customize the walk to your dog's age and energy level—whether they need a brisk mile or a slow "sniff-around" to stimulate their brain. Safety First: I always double-check harnesses/collars and stay hyper-aware of other dogs or distractions in the neighborhood. Refresh: Every walk ends with fresh water and a paw-wipe if it’s a rainy day! 🏠 Drop-In Visits: Short (15 mins) Efficiency & Care: These are perfect for potty breaks and quick feedings. The Checklist: I prioritize the essentials—fresh water, food, and litter box scooping—followed by 10 minutes of focused playtime or cuddles so they don't feel lonely. Updates: You’ll receive a quick photo and a "business" report (potty/eating) before I leave. 🛋️ Drop-In Visits: Long (30+ mins) Company & Comfort: Best for high-energy puppies or "velcro" dogs and cats who crave human presence. Quality Time: We might spend 30 minutes playing fetch in the yard and the other 30 minutes relaxing on the couch. Household Help: Since I’m there longer, I’m happy to bring in the mail or water a few plants to keep your home looking lived-in and secure. 🛡️ Standard Care Procedures Regardless of the service, I follow a strict protocol to ensure your peace of mind: Home Security: I am meticulous about locking doors and setting alarms exactly as instructed. Communication: I send "pupdates" with photos after every visit so you can see your happy pet in real-time. The "Animal Magnet" Touch: I use the first few minutes of every visit to settle the pet’s energy, using a calm voice and gentle approach to ensure they feel safe and excited to see me.

About: Every animal deserves love, no matter their history, age, size, or special needs. I'm here to provide the care and attention your pet needs, ensuring they feel safe and loved every step of the way. From playful little babies to senior pets, I’ve got them covered! If you decide to choose me, you also decided to give you companion a new friend. I am available in the mornings from 6am to 12pm Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. I’m off on Sundays and Mondays so I’m available from 6am to 11pm In my home or yours, I ensure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. I tailor my care to their individual needs, from playtime and exercise to feeding and cuddles. Whether it's walking, feeding, administering medication, or keeping their environment clean, I treat every pet like my own and maintain open communication with owners to ensure peace of mind.

About: I’ve always had family dogs and cats! Always helped with families pets, volunteered at animal shelters, and have used other walk/sitting apps before. Never met an animal I didn’t love!

About: I have experience with deaf, blind, senior and reactive dogs as well as cats. I fostered and trained for Blue River Pet Rescue and have taken dog safety courses with Nebraska Humane Society. I know what it's like to have a scared or sick dog and I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for them when you can't. I am no stranger to a special needs dog and I want to be that person for you and your pet when you need me. My own dog, who passed in April 2025, had CHF and I could barely stand to let him out of my sight. I was lucky that the people who fostered him offered to watch him when needed. Without them, I'm not sure how I would've found someone I could really trust to be patient and kind to him. Now that he's gone, I want to be able to be that person for others. I work completely remote, so I am always home, giving me a great opportunity to care for special needs animals or just animals in general. I work Mon-Fri, 12-8 and weekends are usually free. I live close to a dog park that I took my previous foster to every day and have a nice neighborhood for walks. I have a yard (not fully fenced in) with a tie out leash, though I go outside often and never leave a pet alone. I usually take the dogs out every hour and walk with them around the yard and house with a longer walk before and after work. I have lots of toys and keep a pet water fountain running at all times. I keep a couple of dog beds throughout the house, so there is always somewhere soft and comfortable to lay down, whether they want to stay close by or would prefer some space. My house is their house while they're here. Besides the trash cans, they are welcome to explore.
