“Our dog is so happy that we found Deanna. He is hoping she’ll play fetch again with him again before long. Great job and highly recommend. Deanna even brought treats for us and our dog. So sweet!”

About: With hands-on experience working at Kenl Inn in Lincoln, NE, I’ve gained valuable experience caring for dogs and providing them with the attention, patience, exercise, and love they deserve. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I am available throughout the week and weekends to care for your furry family! I will prioritize your pets needs and comfort while you are away. Whether your pet stays in my home or I care for them in yours, I provide personalized, loving attention based on their individual needs and routine. I make sure they receive fresh food and water, exercise, playtime, potty breaks, medication when needed, and plenty of love and companionship. I also keep their environment clean, safe, and comfortable so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

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 cats and dogs as a child. I have had my own cat kids for 22+ years! All of them were adopted. We had 4 cats for a while. They all had such different personalities which makes it fun! I have also done drop in visits to take care of dogs, rabbits and guinea pigs! I work full-time so I am available on weekends. I am available during the week- early mornings or late afternoons or evenings to come over and take care of your pet. I offer services in a client's home (not my own) . I am very happy to come to your home to feed, water and play with your pet!

About: I've loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. I grew up with pets and have had my own boxer mix for the past 8 years, so I understand just how much our pets mean to us. With over 10 years of experience in veterinary medicine, I'm comfortable caring for pets of all ages and medical needs, including giving medications and helping with post-surgery recovery. Whether your pet is a playful puppy, a laid-back senior, or just needs lots of love and attention, I'll care for them like they're my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while giving you peace of mind that they're in good hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have my own pet and already structure my day around providing attention, exercise, and care. I work Monday through Friday, and i can provide care before work, during my hour-long lunch break, and after work for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. On weekends, I have even more time to dedicate to longer walks, cuddles, and fun activities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I focus on creating a calm, loving environment where they feel safe and truly at home. I meet each pet where they are and build trust at their pace, whether they’re energetic and playful or shy and reserved. In my home, pets are treated like family. They’re welcome on the couch, the bed, and anywhere they feel comfortable. My gentle 11-year-old boxer gets along well with other pets and helps create a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. Your pet will receive plenty of attention, affection, and personalized care every step of the way.

“Rebecca was very reliable. She came over to help walk my dog when I was out of town. She’s quite friendly. We’re very happy with her services provided.”

About: I very much enjoy pet sitting, walking and general care with all types of animals! I have a history of working with animals for several years. I have done many years of training with a lot of animals from very big and very small. I am able to work with pets who have special needs as well and very much enjoy spending time and energy with an animal that may need a little extra care! I have a history of working with dogs, cats, many breeds of birds and several hoof stock. I’ve even cared for a lizard or two! I have worked in a zoo with their domesticated animals for many years, trained dogs, and helped out at a cat rescue! Hope to work with you and your fur baby soon! I work part time from home so I have plenty of time to care for your furry fam! I am available for overnight stays for pet sitting and house sitting! I am also available for drop in visits for let outs or medicine administration. I also love to swing by and take your doggies for a walk! My guys (Momo and Gilbert) both enjoy kitty play time and doggie training and play. Also tons of snuggles and walks! I like to know your pet’s regular activities and keep that comforting schedule for them.

“Highly recommend Megan! She was kind and patient with my shy cats, took time to meet me beforehand, and made me feel completely comfortable. I’ll definitely book her again!”

“Eileen did drop in visits for us while our pup was 2-3 months old 1-2x a day for a month or so. She was patient, caring, and flexible with last minute schedule changes. Our pup loved having her over and enjoyed spending time with her. I would absolutely recommend her for any pet sitting needs!! She’s amazing!”

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.

About: I’ve spent years caring for animals—raising multiple dog and cat breeds, being the trusted friend who watches everyone’s pets, and even working as a pre-vet student and zookeeper for tigers and wolves. I now have my own husky and two cats, and I’m confident, calm, and experienced with pets of all personalities, needs, and energy levels. Because I work remotely full-time, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to give pets consistent attention throughout the day. I can easily rotate between work and pet care, fitting in walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins whenever needed. My availability stays steady, so your pet gets reliable company, structure, and care from morning to evening. I Will be able to work with you on the comfort and needs of your pets based on mutual available resources and your pets training.

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and comfort level. We always had a dog while o was growing up and as an adult I have always owned a dog (or two). I feel a house it’s a home without a dog! I currently own a Goldendoodle. I have experience with daily walks, feeding schedules, administration of medication, playtime, and of course snuggles. I work until 5:30 p.m. most days of the week but, I am available evenings, and weekends to care for your pet whatever the need may be. In my full-time career as a registered nurse, attention to detail, reliability, and compassion are part of who I am. I naturally pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, or other signs that something may not be right, and I communicate promptly with pet owners. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply keeping their normal routine while you’re away, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I care for every pet as if they were my own and understand how important peace of mind is when you’re trusting someone with a member of your family.

“Maven did a great job with drop-in visit for my two cats. The cats were fed and watered and I received a detailed report with pictures. Will definitely contact her again. Thank you Maven!”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every dog. I treat each pet like family and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I am patient with puppies who are still learning and can help reinforce basic commands and good walking habits. I also understand that senior dogs may need a slower pace, extra attention, and special care to keep them comfortable. My goal is to provide dependable, personalized care so both pets and owners can feel confident and worry free. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy spending time with animals and staying active. I plan my schedule to ensure I have plenty of time for walks, playtime and giving pets the attention they need. Throughout the week, I make reliability a priority so pets can maintain their normal routines and feel comfortable while their owners are away. I am committed to providing consistent, dependable care and treating every pet as if they were my own. When caring for pets, I focus on keeping them comfortable, safe, and following their normal routine as closely as possible. In a client's home, I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention while respecting the owner's instructions and the pet's specific needs. If caring for pets in my home, I create a clean, safe environment with regular exercise, supervision, and lots of affection. Whether in my home or a client's home, I treat every pet like family and make sure they receive the care, patience, and attention they deserve.

“Daniela was wonderful. She bonded with Ruby and sent lots of pictures and video. Very reliable and punctual.”

About: I have been taking care of all kinds of dogs ever since I was 15! Pet sitting is one of my favorite things to do! I currently have a 9 year old boxer and an 18 year old peekapoo so I have truly seen dogs at every age and stage haha! I have a special soft spot for senior dogs though, especially since the one I have means the world to me! I currently am a student part time and work part time, and have plenty of time during the day before I head to work or class to watch or walk your pups! I have a lot of practice being able to crate bigger dogs, and am usually pretty aware of dogs and their triggers. I always want them to be happy and healthy!

About: I have cared for dogs large and small, including walks, play time and overnight stays. I also have experience with dogs who don't bond with other dogs in the home, as well knowing how to manage and and be sensitive to dogs with anxiety. I work from home with some flexibility to my schedule, and have the ability to care for some pets in my home. I am also able for house sitting. I live in an apartment with a loft, which gives pets plenty of room. There is a dog friendly area outside where I am able to take dogs on a leash for walks, etc. There is also a dog park in my neighborhood.

About: I’m Ashley! I’m NE born and raised. I’ve lived in Lincoln for over 10 years! I received my bachelors degree at UNL and my Masters and UNO. I have experience caring for dogs throughout my whole life and have had dogs in my life and own home throughout my childhood and currently have my own dog as an adult as well. I was a dog walker in high school and walked dog packs of 6-8 dogs at once of all sizes with my best friend. 🥰 I’ve been a cat owner for 6 years as well in addition to experience working in a Cat Hotel and living/loving my friends kitties, so I’m pretty comfortable with our feline friends too! I’ve also worked for several years at doggie daycare locally in Lincoln, giving me even more experience with routinely caring for fur friends that aren’t my on, following given food/medication regimens, etc. I work full time 9am-5pm Mon-Fri but am available for drop ins and house sitting before and after my work day. When booked for a house sitting I’m typically at the home full time on weekends. I am available for walks later afternoon/evenings during the week and most anytime on weekends! I care for all animals with the same love and affection of being my own! I always do my best to follow any instructions given per the FurMom/FurDad and make sure that your little fluff has a great time. :) My goal is to keep things as normal as possible for their routine while you’re away.
