“Our girl Stevie LOVED her daycare visit with Crystal! Crystal was inviting, warm, and friendly with great communication and updates. Stevie got to play, made some friends, and seemed immediately comfortable in Crystal’s care. We’re thrilled to have found such a good fit and are looking forward to booking with Crystal for the holidays. Highly recommend!!”

“We love Emily and Jim! They treat my dog as one of their own and my dog loves going to spend the day with them and their family. I leave my dog with them knowing she is safe, in good hands, having fun, and getting plenty of attention. They are also great at giving updates and taking pics. Emily and Jim are both exceptional and trustworthy. We would recommend them to anyone!!”

“Roscoe can't wait to go back and visit Jennifer and Luna! Jennifer was so welcoming that Roscoe felt right at home immediately. We always worry about leaving him because of his separation anxiety yet after a day with Jennifer he was relaxed and happy. He got to be outside, go for a car ride and got plenty of one on one attention. Thank you Jennifer!”

About: Hello! We are a Veteran Air Force family located in Bellevue who adores animals. With a background in caring for senior dogs and puppy mill rescues, we offer a quiet, patient environment in our pet-free and child-free home. You can count on us for reliable potty breaks, daily walks, on-time feeding schedules, and plenty of love and spoiling so your dog feels right at home. Please note: At this time, we are exclusively serving Bellevue and are not offering 24/7 care, puppy care, or holiday care. Because our home is currently pet-free, your companion will be the center of our world during their stay. They'll get all the custom care, playtime, and cozy cuddles without having to share space with other resident pets. I'm comfortable kenneling dogs per your instructions. I am happy to walk your dog as needed also. I only take dogs out on leashes or a tie down if there isn't a fenced yard.
“Another wonderful day. Thor gets excited when we turn onto the entrance to the neighborhood. He seems to really enjoy his time with Garth and Tracy. We couldn't be happier!”
About: Hi, I’m Zelina (“Zee”), and caring for animals has been a lifelong passion of mine. I hold a B.S. in Animal Science, Pre-Veterinary Medicine from Iowa State University and have hands-on experience in dog training, canine behavior, animal care, veterinary medicine, surgery, and orthopedics. Over the years, I’ve worked with dogs in laboratory and veterinary settings, volunteered with animal rescue, and owner-trained my own service dog. I also enjoy training my own dogs, including working with Saga in conformation and scent work, and earning Trick Dog and Canine Good Citizen (CGC) titles with Ollie. My veterinary and animal science background has taught me to look at each dog as an individual, paying attention not only to their behavior and personality but also to their health, comfort, and overall well-being. Whether your dog is playful and energetic, nervous in a new environment, needs extra structure, or simply loves being spoiled, I want them to feel safe, understood, and cared for while they’re with me. As a dog sitter, I bring professional animal experience together with genuine love for dogs. I believe the best care includes plenty of attention, enrichment, patience, and the consistency that helps dogs feel comfortable away from home. My goal is for every pet parent to feel confident knowing their dog is in caring, experienced hands. Because I work from home, your pet receives care in a home environment with plenty of attention throughout the day. When I’m not working, I’m often outside working on our latest project: transforming our backyard into a pet paradise! We’re continually adding improvements and enrichment features to create a safe, fun, and comfortable space for the animals in our care. This means your pet gets to enjoy a relaxed home setting, a consistent routine, and plenty of opportunities for enrichment while they’re staying with us. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Because I work from home, pets staying with me are able to enjoy a calm home environment with regular supervision and attention throughout the day. I maintain a clean, structured, and pet-friendly space and take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, needs, and comfort level before they stay with me. I believe trust is built by respecting each animal as an individual. Some pets are social and love attention, while others need more space and time to settle in. I never force interaction and instead allow pets to become comfortable at their own pace. I provide regular updates through Rover so you can feel connected and confident while you’re away. For pets staying in my home, I provide dedicated spaces and supervised enrichment tailored to their needs. I’m also continually improving our backyard to create a safe and enriching “pet paradise” where pets can enjoy supervised outdoor time. For in-home visits, I follow your pet’s established routine as closely as possible and treat your home and belongings with the same care and respect I would expect in my own home. With my background in animal care and veterinary settings, I’m also attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, energy, and overall well-being. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, understood, and genuinely cared for while their family is away. We have a 6ft privacy fence. We require vaccinations, flea and tick preventative and up to date veterinary records. We require strict sanitation protocols and utilize labortory grade sanitizer and disinfectant to protect your pet.
About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals all my life. Grew up on a farm locally and cared for every animal you can imagine. I’m a recently retired educator with a huge heart. I have a safe and clean home and a fenced in back yard! I presently have 1 dog named Chase who is a 3 year old, well mannered and well trained Pomeranian.Ive had both dogs and cats in past 25 plus years. I will care for your furry family member as if they are my own. Since I am retired I have flexibility with my schedule. I am able to schedule care during the work week to include drop ins, walks and even over night and long term care. I have a large fully fenced back yard. I even have an added puppy fence layer to ensure even the smallest pups are safe and secure. My neighborhood is excellent for dog walking as well. Chase my 10 lb pom is excellent company and a fun playmate.
“Melody was accommodating, a great communicator, and enthusiastic about my pup! We had to change the schedule around last minute and she was very understanding and helped us with what she could to accommodate that. She responded to me almost immediately and would send updates on how my pup was doing without being asked. She showed genuine care for our puppy pal and even sent her home with a toy she loved from the day. Thank you, Melody!”
“Rocket had an amazing time! He went straight to sleep as soon as we got home. Reaching out to Allyson was really last minute and she was super accommodating. I got plenty of pictures from his day and it just confirmed how much fun he had. We’ll definitely be bringing him back :)”
“Amy….you were so welcoming to our little Wolfie! I could see from the video you sent how much fun he had there..never imaged he would be so confident and comfortable. I am SO THANKFUL we selected you from all the Rover Sitters we could have chosen!”
“Alexis provided a safe and cool place for our dogs while we were passing through. Just needed a day so we could explore the zoo before getting back on the road with our dogs. She sent pics throughout the day and gave us a peace of mind in knowing our dogs were safe. If we’re ever in the area again and need a place for our dogs, we’d be happy to hire Alexis again. She was wonderful!”
“Ainsley was great! My little dog seemed completely comfortable at her home and was obviously happy when I picked him up. I definitely would recommend her as a sitter — she’s very kind, a great communicator, and clearly loves animals. Will ask her to watch my dog again. Thanks Ainsley! A+++”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 333 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Nehawka. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Nehawka commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 333 sitters in Nehawka, 83% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
