“Justine & Justin did a wonderful job with shandy may! They sent plenty of photos to ease my mind while I was away! Shandy had a blast in the fenced in yard and with their dog Max!,”
“Rebecca was great! Her home is super nice and spacious! She let me have some updates on how Flynn was doing and let him run in her backyard. Flynn was super tired when he got home and if anyone can tire out my rambunctious puppy, then we will be booking again! Thank you so much, HIGHLY RECOMMEND! ☺️”
“Our Zoey had a terrific time with Melissa! Will be happy to have her care for our BABY again. Did not know a tip was to be given on your site, and was left with her when we picked up Zoey.”
“Bryanne was amazing! She took very good care of my pup Apollo and he definitely seemed to have lots of fun! Very responsive and provided updates! We will definitely come back to her!”
“Our poodle had a wonderful stay and enjoyed playing with Cheryl's two dogs. Cheryl sent pics of the dogs and my family loved the updates. We hope to have our dog stay with Cheryl in the future! Thanks for a great weekend, Cheryl!”
“Kelly was so easy to communicate with and very flexible on drop off and pickup times. She sent me photo updates during our trip which was so appreciated. She’s just the nicest person and I’d recommend her to anyone who is looking for a sitter!”
“We are so thankful we found Kathy to watch our beagle,Kona. She is absolutely the best! We felt comfortable from the very first time we met Kathy during our Meet and Greet. She watched Kona for two days when we went out of town. Kathy kept us updated and sent pictures. Communication was awesome! She loves dogs and treats them like one of her own. Kona loved going for walks and playing with her dog Charleigh. We already have dates set for Kathy to watch Kona during our upcoming trips. She is truly amazing!”
“Plenty of pictures sent to me and it appeared he was having a blast in every single one of them. He was having so much fun that I almost felt bad for going to pick him up.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog, Sky, received during his stay! The updates were constant and detailed, letting me know how well he was doing every step of the way. From sharing adorable moments of him playing and cuddling with their dog to ensuring he was eating and sleeping comfortably, they truly went above and beyond. They even kept him snuggly and warm during the cold weather—he came back smelling amazing! It’s clear they genuinely care for the pets they watch over. I highly recommend their services and wouldn’t hesitate to leave Sky with them again!”
“Mark was absolutely wonderful with our brand new puppy Violet. She is only 14 weeks so I was so nervous to leave her for the night. He put my mind to ease right away at the meet and greet. His dog Charlie was a delight as well. She played so well with Violet. He was awesome at sending updates and photos the whole time we were gone. We will definitely be using Mark again. You can tell that he takes caring for other peoples loved ones very serious. He definitely has a passion and love free animals.”
“Thank you for taking such great care of our Minnie! We're so glad that she felt at home and relaxed in your care. Knowing that made all the difference in us being able to enjoy our own vacation. Thank you again for all the attention and love you showed our girl!”
“She was amazing! My dogs absolutely loved her. She sent me pictures and updates daily. She gave me a full run down when I went to pick them up. My heart was happy and I was at ease being so far away from them. I also had to change my days numerous times and add on another day last minute because of travel plans changing. And she was so great and flexible with all of it. Will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Sarah did a fantastic job watching Louie. She sent pictures daily, has a dog park located in her complex, and even went to extra mile in giving Lou a bath when he was dirty. I would recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter!”
“Amy took wonderful care of Finn while I was gone for a week. She sent pictures of him playing with the other dogs and checked in on how he was doing. I knew he was having a good time. I will definitely be using Amy again.”
“Michelle is AMAZING. She made sure my pups were comfortable and was very communicative while I was away. She even accommodated an unforeseen late pick up ☺️ Elated to have my pups back but would absolutely trust Michelle to watch them again!!”
“Melanie was fantastic! She took the time to get to know both me and my dog before we left, and she was very thorough in going over his feeding instructions and walking routine. Every day we were away, she sent updates with photos of their walks, feeding time, playtime, and how he was doing throughout the day, which gave me so much peace of mind. I could tell my dog was well cared for and happy while we were gone. I will definitely be booking Melanie again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter!”

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 Nickerson home-away-from-home, 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 Nickerson.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Nickerson 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 , 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 .
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.
