“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: Animals have always been an important part of our lives. We raised one of our dogs from an 8 week old puppy and adopted another from a shelter when she was estimated to be 1 to 2 years old, she was with us for over 17 years! We cared for them through every stage of life. That experience taught us the importance of patience, consistency, exercise, and paying attention to each dog’s unique personality and needs. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I’ll care for your furry family member with the same love and attention we gave our own. I currently work part time, which gives me flexibility for dog walks, drop in visits, and house sitting. My schedule varies, but I’m available many afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays. I’m active and genuinely enjoy long walks, hikes, and spending time outdoors, so whether your dog prefers a leisurely stroll or plenty of exercise, I’ll make sure they get the attention and activity they need. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I cared for my own two dogs for many years, raising one from a puppy and adopting the other from a shelter. I have experience caring for dogs through every stage of life, including senior dogs with changing needs. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, keep your home secure, provide regular updates and photos, and treat your pet with the same patience, love, and respect I gave my own dogs. Every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
“Hillary is amazing. My abused rescue girl is in love with her. Clara is almost a different dog thanks in great part to Hillary. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would.”

“Ella is an awesome cat sitter! The website is easy to use and she is very accommodating. We have used her to drop in and feed our cats two times. We will continue to have her watch our cats when we are out of town.”
About: I have had animals my entire life! Mostly dogs that have lived well into their teens, but also cats. Most recently I had my dog Bella for over 12 years and the last 3 we traveled the country try between Seattle and Miami by car. She unfortunately passed due to cancer and not ready to own an animal, but still love having them around . I am great at playing with animals to keep them engaged and teaching commands. I also can accommodate animals to their needs if they need medicine or special assistance. I work from home for an agency based in Los Angeles. This means that your animal wouldn’t need to be locked up all day if they stay at my house my flexible schedule also also allows me to add walks in the day and play time so your dog isn’t in a crate all day. I also have a yard big enough for throwing sticks for added fun! I do have a fenced in yard that would allow for your dog to run around. I also wouldn’t mind going to someone’s house if I needed to as well as I am mobile.
“Alexus was great! Ella loved every minute with her! She gave her all the lovings while we were gone and went above and beyond. Would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”

“Jamie was absolutely incredible with our 2 puppies while we were gone on vacation. She always sent great updates and multiple pictures at each visit, we can definitely tell that our puppies adored her, and we appreciate her so much. Will definitely be using Jamie again in the future!”

Plenty of play time. I have a fenced yard. I have cats in the home but gates to keep them easily separated. I have water fountains for easy access to water. I have experience with giving medication and taking care of animals with bathroom issues.

“Amy did such a good job with my cats. They looked well taken care of and always answered when I asked questions or needed reassurance that they were happy. Thanks again for doing such a great job!”


About: I think what sets me apart from other pet sitters is that I am a very active and attentive person. I love spending quality time and really enjoy keeping myself busy. I have had years of watching family friends pets and feel very confident taking care of animals, as I also have one of my own. I am currently working full time 9-6PM, but come this fall I am moving and completely starting over! I am looking to just have some fun and live life to the fullest! My routine for the first few months in my new place will be very loose scheduled and laid back. I am a very tidy and clean person. I often find myself leaving a place better than I found it! To some that may be annoying, but to a pet owner, I think they would always love a little extra help around the house and knowing they would be coming back to a nice clean place. I also am a very empathetic person, and would want to treat any pet, the way I treat my own.
“JASMINE!!! I am so happy with her service and how well she took care of my furbabies. She will be my go-to person from now on. I am so lucky to have found her. She loves and gives with all of her heart. :-)”


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! I play sand volleyball on Monday nights, happy to work around 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.

Ashley & Kyle always do a fantastic job! Frankie absolutely loves them! They always give great updates, and I can tell they really care about my pup & making sure everything goes well. Always appreciate them helping with Frankie! I always trust he is in good hands with Ashley & Kyle!

Alyssa has stopped in for the last 2 weeks on the days I work in office. She provides us with a great recap of her visit and activities with our puppies! We are so happy we have found her and our pups seem to really enjoy her!! We will keep our weekly bookings up, as it is so helpful to us all!

We used Taylor again while we were away for the weekend, and she was wonderful as always! She does such a great job with our pets, and we really appreciate all the photos and updates while we’re away. She’s definitely our go-to sitter! Thank you, Taylor, for taking such great care of them! ❤️

Kelly took wonderful care of my cat when I was out of town. She was on time for all of his visits and sent detailed updates about what they did during each visit. It was clear by the photos she sent that my cat adored her! I would definitely recommend Kelly and will certainly use her again next time I need cat care.

Rebecca is fantastic! I’d trust her and her family with any one of my pets—drop-ins, boarding, you name it. She takes great care of every animal and is so kind, thoughtful, communicative, and easy to work with. You (and your pets!) lucky to have her as a sitter.

Aly did such a wonderful job taking care of our two senior dogs while we were away. She went above and beyond with them, even taking time to brush the loose hair off my 130 lb malamute! This was our first time using Rover and Aly gave us such a great first experience that we may never board them again! Highly recommend her!
