“Best dog sitter I’ve ever had, hands-down! This is the first time I’ve left my dog for an extended period of time in a while, and I was very nervous, but I didn’t need to be. Jenny sent me photos and every day of my dog having the time of her life! I can say, with confidence that my dog received so much love and attention, and had so many fun activities the entire week that I was gone! I couldn’t recommend Jenny enough and I’m so so thankful that she was able to watch my dog. Thank you so much Jenny, you really made my week amazing and I know you made my dog’s week amazing as well!”
“We had an amazing first time experience with these sitters watching our two French bulldogs. From the start, communication was excellent, they kept us updated with frequent messages and lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dogs were very well cared for and happy. Our French bulldogs are not quite a year old yet, so they still have some of the challenges that come with being puppies, but the sitters were wonderful with them. They seemed completely comfortable and relaxed, and it was obvious they were treated like part of the family. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for caring, trustworthy, and communicative sitters. We have already rebooked with them to ensure that they have room to watch them again!”
“Sarah is absolutely wonderful. She and her family invited my pup into their home and treated him like he was one of their own. She kept me up to date on how he was doing, sent lots of pictures, spoiled him with treats, and allowed him to get comfortable in her home. I’ll absolutely have Sarah watch my pup again when I need a sitter.”
“Deanna had the perfect calm household for my dog. She was very attentive to her, gave her lots of yard sniffing, and walks. I highly recommend her services and will be booking with her in the future!”
About: I have been around dogs my entire life. Owning my own for the past 3 years. I have gone through 2 years of dog training to be the best pet parent I can be and would now like to use my skills to help others. I am a full time teacher during the day. At night I enjoy spending time at home, walking if it is nice weather, and cuddling with my furry friends. I live in an apartment setting, so safety is my utmost priority. I ensure that the dogs I care for are on a leash, under my supervision at all times outside. Indoors we keep all doors shut to eliminate any unwanted messes.
“They took great care of Mr. Wiggins, he was comfy and happy at his sleepover! Ashley & Kyle were flexible and easy to work with, and excellent communicators. Thank you!”
“First time using a dog sitter and I honestly couldn’t have asked for better experience!!! He sent us lots of pictures and updates on how the dogs were doing while we were away.”
About: I have many years of experience caring for animals of all types! I have worked in a veterinary clinic, at a doggie daycare, and on a chicken farm. I also have a Great Pyrenees of my own who is the love of my life! I understand a lot about pet behavior as I have done a research project at the Capital Humane Society studying the effects of training and one-on-one play. I am also a senior at UNL studying companion animal science! All of my classes are currently online, so I spend most of my time at home! I do have a part-time job, which makes me unavailable on Tuesdays and every other Saturday. I treat every pet like my own! I am unhealthily obsessed with animals. I do have a Great Pyrenees in my home, but I have family members who are more than welcome to watch her if our pets would not get along! I am willing to pet sit in your home if that is easier or if it feels safer for you! I am very accommodating and just want to help out where I can!
About: Finding pet care can be an anxiety inducing experience. My job is to provide pet parents with total comfort and peace of mind knowing that their fur babies are being well taken care of while they are away. Hey there! My name is Kayla and I am a 30 year old childless cat (and dog) lady. I have spent my entire life around animals and wouldn't have it any other way. We always had dogs while growing up, which eventually grew into also having cats, mice, lizards, etc. I turned this personal love of animals into a profession by spending many years working in pet boarding/daycare facilities, pet shelters, and by pet sitting on the side. I have been around so many different kinds of pet personalities and temperaments and strive to approach each animal appropriately to keep everyone safe and comfortable. I have also had much experience with special needs and senior pets. A big part of my job is it keep owners updated on any concerns I have or to ask important questions, so you never miss a beat of what is going on with your furry companion while you are gone. I pride myself in having a ton of heart and genuine care for any animal I come into contact with, and promise to treat your fur baby as my own - belly rubs and treats included! I currently work full time, 9-5 M-F. I will have plenty of time in the late afternoon/evening to care for your pets, as well as open availability Saturday and Sunday I will care for your fur baby just like he or she is my own! I'm good at following instructions of care and sticking to the routine they are used to. Plenty of belly rubs and walks included!
About: I’ve been around and cared for animals since I was 6. I spent the last summer working at the Henry Doorly Zoo and I’m studying to be a veterinarian. I’m currently a university student with open nights and weekends as well as time throughout the day to play and care for pets! I have a flexible schedule and can work around times as needed. I work with pets on what they’re comfortable and familiar with as well as what owners have trained them on. Whether it’s with crates or fences I will care for pets with the utmost attention.
“ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! First time using Rover and didn’t know what to expect. Staci was quick to respond, flexible with our crazy travel times, and even picked up and dropped our puppy off. We loved getting photo updates while we were away. We could tell when we picked our puppy up how happy she had been the entire time. We will 100% be reaching out to Staci again.”
About: Hi! I’m Natalie, and I’m a huge animal lover who would love the opportunity to care for your pets! I’m responsible, patient, and treat every animal like they’re my own. I also have my own Goldendoodle, Willow, who absolutely loves making new furry friends! She is very playful, gentle, and friendly and would be so excited to have a buddy to hang out with. Because Willow would be around during stays, I do ask that your dog is comfortable and friendly with other dogs. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, give them lots of love and attention, and send pictures and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing they’re in good hands! 🐾🤍 I work as a CNA, but I have a flexible schedule because I’m able to sign up for shorter shifts that work around my availability. I’m very intentional about making sure I have plenty of time to care for pets, which allows me to come home and let dogs out for potty breaks, take them on walks, give them lots of attention, and spend time hanging out with them. I want to make sure every pet gets the care, exercise, and companionship they need while their owners are away. 🐾 When your pet is staying with me, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved just like they’re at home. I’ll keep them on their normal routine as much as possible, including meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. Since I have a flexible work schedule, I’m able to make time throughout the day to let them outside and give them attention rather than leaving them alone for long periods. My Goldendoodle, Willow, is also very friendly and loves having other dogs around, so your pup will have a fun little friend to keep them company! 🐾🤍
“I am so impressed with the care that went into taking care of my pup. I mistakenly booked the wrong dates and realized last minute. Daniela accommodated the schedule change and was so kind about it. My dog was instantly comfortable with these hosts and I received lots of cute pictures and updates. I will absolutely recommend them to anybody looking for someone who will care for your pup and make them feel right at home. If I could give 10 stars, I would!”
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: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life and have cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. This allows me to not only recognize the varied needs and behaviors that different pets may have, but also and be able to sympathize and cater to those specific needs and behaviors while creating bonds with each animal. I have availability for drop in visits and walks Monday-Friday at 10am and boarding (in my home) Friday-Sunday. I also offer doggy park field trips on Fridays at 11:30. I offer pet care (in clients home, or mine for dog friendly pups) whether it’s feeding, bathing, or stimulating playtime and long walks. I have reliable means of transportation and enjoy going to the dog park or on other fun adventures with the pups. I also have a friendly 10 year old tibetan spaniel that loves to tag along if you’re dog enjoys company from furry friends, however I am very understanding of the fact that dogs have different social behaviors and that some dogs require one on one time. A pet in my care will never be put into a situation that puts their or anyone else’s safety at risk.
About: Hi! I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a lifelong animal lover who truly enjoys caring for pets as if they were my own. I’ve had my own dogs of all breeds since I was a toddler, worked in kennels, and assisted at the vet clinic, so I’m very experienced in what pets need and how to make them feel the most loved! Whether your dog wants a cozy cuddle buddy, a calm and patient walker, or a fun adventure partner, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I know how important routine and comfort are, so I always keep things consistent and fun and maintain very open communication. You’ll get plenty of updates, photos, and reassurance. Your fur baby is in kind, reliable hands with me! I am a new mom that is looking to fill my time loving your animals! I do work some, so I would be available to take care of them before or after work, but I am also home frequently throughout the day! We can chat about your pets needs before booking :) As someone who adores their pets like family, I also know how hard it is to trust someone with my pups, so I make it high priority to ensure every pet is treated the same with me as they would be at home with their own family. This will look different for each pup as I learn what your family routine and expectations are!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Milford home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Milford.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Milford sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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.
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.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in NE ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
