House Sitting in Nickerson

“Alyssa is so amazing. She listens, is attentive, knowledgeable, and has wonderful calm energy. Love that we found her and will definitely be using her services again! Thanks so much, Alyssa, for taking such good care of our pup while we were out!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my strong attention to detail, genuine love for animals, and experience with pets of all ages and needs. I have hands-on experience training puppies with basic commands and crate training, as well as providing gentle, attentive care for senior pets who may need medication, extra patience, or mobility support. I’m also highly reliable and communicative I always keep pet parents updated with messages and photos, so they feel connected and reassured while they're away. My calm, friendly approach helps pets feel safe and at ease, whether it’s their first time with a sitter or they need special care. I treat every animal like they’re my own, and that personal connection makes all the difference. Pet care fits into my daily routine as a consistent and rewarding responsibility. Every morning starts with feeding my dog and taking him for a quick walk to get some energy out before the day begins. In the evenings, I usually spend about 30 minutes either going on a longer walk or playing fetch at the park. On weekends, I make time for grooming like brushing his fur or giving him a bath if needed and sometimes schedule vet checkups or pick up new toys or treats. It’s a routine that keeps me grounded, and it’s always nice to end the day with a loyal companion by my side. When caring for pets in either my home or a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and consistent environment. For dogs, I ensure they have regular feeding times, fresh water, daily walks, and playtime to keep them mentally and physically stimulated. I also follow any specific instructions the client provides, such as administering medications or adhering to training routines. If I’m in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain the pet’s regular schedule to reduce stress from their owner's absence. I clean up after the pet, monitor behavior for signs of illness or anxiety, and send updates (with photos) to the owner for peace of mind. Whether it’s overnight care, walking, or short visits, my goal is to make each pet feel safe and loved while their owner is away.

“Tricia was prompt with letting us know when she arrived and left, sent plenty of check in photos, and left our home looking like no one had been there (maybe even cleaner than it was when we left!).”

“Kendra was great! My dog took to her immediately. She sent lots of updates and pics while I was away, so I didn’t worry at all. Highly recommend!”

Andrea P.

“Tracy was great as always. I have forgotten to review so many times. She's watched my pets many times over the years. She takes great care of them and leaves my home as she found it. I really appreciate her!”

Jordan L.

“Rebecca did a phenomenal job with my English Bulldog, French Bulldog, and Boston Terrier over the 4th of July Holiday week/weekend. She checked in, sent me updates, and pictures with every visit. She administered medications to all three of my dogs and kept up with the routine care of my English Bulldog’s ears and eyes. Rebecca vacuumed their kennels and large area rug daily. I was very pleased to come home to my house just how I left it.”

Sara S.

“Wow! Danny went above and beyond. Plenty of updates, pics, and cuddles. He’s very communicative and I’m just very impressed. Will be using again and highly recommend”

Sam E.

“Denise was absolutely amazing! By far the best person I've had watch my dog while out of town. She works from home so didn't have to leave much at all, she walked her daily for 30+ minutes, sent a picture or video & checked up on me to ensure I made it home okay. She even bought/replaced a couple of my light bulbs, lol! I will definitely be asking her first whenever going out of town. My dog & I absolutely loved her!”

“During Our Initial Meet and Greet Saryna S. she came over to our home and our 2 dogs warmed up to her right away. Saryna was very warm and friendly with us also. In Preparation for the job she also came over a 2nd time before we needed her to pet sit. To go over things and learn more about our dogs mannerisms etc. Saryna did a wonderful job watching our 2 dogs while we were away. Daily cares, walks, play, feedings, attention and love. She kept us updated with text messages and photo's throughout each day/night. We will definitely use Saryna again and share her name friends and family.”

About: I grew up on a small ranch caring for all kinds of animals: goats, chickens, parrots, bunnies, dogs, cats, and even fish. Being around animals has always been a part of my daily life, and I’ve learned how to care for them with patience, attention, and love. Whether it’s walking an energetic dog, helping with medications, or just giving a pet some extra attention while you’re away, I’m someone people trust to show up and care like family. No matter the size or species, I’m comfortable and confident handling it all. I have plenty of time to spend with your pet! I’m currently home from college and mostly helping my parents out around the house, so my schedule is super flexible For drop-in visits, I typically stop by every 4 hours, starting around 8 AM and continuing until about 10 PM. I usually spend about an hour outside with your pup in the morning to get them some fresh air (and make sure they get that important morning potty break!). In the evening, I like to take them for a 30-minute walk to help them burn off energy before bedtime. My schedule is flexible, so I’m happy to adjust visit times or frequency based on your pet’s needs and your preferences.

About: I grew up in a small town with horses, dogs, and cats. I have been an animal lover since I was just a little girl. My Aunt had a kenneling facility that I helped with throughout the years and growing up. It was more like a little staycation for furry friends while families traveled for various reasons. Customers always came back relieved because they knew that their pets were in great hands. My responsibilities included keeping the living space sanitary and comfortable, feeding, watering, cleaning, exercising, and monitoring the animals' health and behavior, and obviously a lot of added love and play time! I dog sit for a few people (friends/family) here in and stay at their homes when they are gone and love it so much, I decided to check out Rover! I am hardworking, kind, compassionate, and trustworthy. Whether you kennel your dog or prefer not to I am your go-to girl when it comes to any of these needs! Recently moved back to Omaha and looking for a part time job! Book me today! I recently moved back to Omaha and am working part-time right now. My schedule is very flexible, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I do not board pets at my own home. However, I will care for your loved one/ones following your instructions, feeding, providing fresh water, exercising, administering medication if needed, and cleaning up after him/her. I will also maintain the home's cleanliness and security and keep you updated on your furry friend/friends' status.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. It never mattered if the dog was mine, some one else’s or a stray, I loved them all - and still do! I’m currently working full time as a teacher. Luckily my school is a 5 min drive from my home, so getting home quickly is a perk ☺️ I do not do any after school activities, therefore when it’s 3:10 pm I’m headed home! My weekends are usually free and any holiday I am free! Your dogs home away from home 🥰 I have a fenced in yard and 2 dogs of my own to play with yours! My home is set up to accommodate any dog needs whether it be food allergies, anxiety, training, medications etc.. I’m able to do it all for your pup(s)! If needed I can continue any training done at home. Due to having 2 herding dogs I have 5 years of experience training. Some of the skills worked on have been: basic commands, potty training - ring bell, crate training, redirection training and recall. One of my dogs has extreme anxiety which has allowed me to learn different ways to train him depending on circumstances. I have rooms and spaces set up in the home to allow the dogs to escape to when they are overwhelmed. While your pet stays with me their comfortability is my priority! When it comes to any type of animal I have endless love, patience, empathy and kindness 🖤

“I cannot say enough good about the care my dog had with Tamara!!! He was so happy and relaxed when I got home! Her communication is fantastic and my house was spotless!!! Absolutely recommend!!”

Leslie J.

“Rachel stayed a week to watch our dogs and did a great job. She sent lots of updates and the dogs were very happy. She was able to accommodate instructions for diet and medication needs and very thorough in her notes. The house was also very well kept and just as we left it. Would definitely recommend and book again! 10/10”

About: I own 2 dogs and both are rescues. I know what it means to take care of new and even sometimes difficult dogs. It would be an honor to help you care for yours. I am currently working part-time and looking for side jobs so I would have plenty of time to care for your animals while you are away. I can come to your home and care for your dogs in whatever way you prefer me to. I have reliable transportation so I am also able to take your dog to the park, for walks/hikes, or even to vet appointments if needed!

About: I’ve had pets for as long as I can remember. I’ve always loved animals since I was little. I’ve also always been a very active person so, dog walking is the best of both worlds for me. Growing up animals have always made my life so much better and never failed to put a smile on my face when I needed it most. I love seeing every animals personality and how they all have seperate traits and needs. Animals are such a blessing and bring so much joy with the love they show to us. They deserve all the love and attention from us in return so caring for your pet would truly bring me joy. I am currently attending school right now Monday- Friday so I am available to walk your dog anytime Monday-Friday besides 8am - 3:30pm. I can still pet sit during the week depending how closely and often you feel your pet needs to be monitored, but I would have to be gone 8-3:30 on the days I have school. Weekends I do not have anything I have to attend and can walk anytime of the day and be present all day with your pet if needed. When walking dogs I take the time to get to know each dog’s personality and needs—whether they’re energetic and need a long walk or shy and need a slower pace. I’m also attentive to safety, use positive reinforcement, and always make sure your dog gets the attention, exercise, and care they deserve When it comes to dog sitting I’m reliable, patient, and make sure pets are comfortable, safe, and happy while you're away. I stick to their routines, give them plenty of attention and affection, and keep an eye out for any signs of stress or health issues. I also stay in touch with you, so you’ll always know how your furry friend is doing. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, walks, or just cuddles—I’m fully present and committed to your pet as if it was my own.

“Lacey was great with Odin and even did his meds. The house was in great shape when we got back.”

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life all breeds of them I have also had a kitten, I love animals I would like to put your mind at ease while I take of you pet because I know they apart of your family. I have some extra time I can spare into taking care of pets during the week. This is important to me to do a good job for you. I will make sure they go potty when needed, well fed, and plenty of play time in between. Exercise is a very good part their day so they aren't so bored.

About: Throughout my life, I’ve always had a special connection with animals, whether my dog, Sammy, who recently passed away or my extended family’s pets. I've grown to love, respect, care for, and learn with dogs and cats throughout the years. Whenever I would go to work in the morning or come home for the day, I will always have the responsibility to care for one’s world. I will constantly provide a safe and loving environment for your pet. I enjoy working out every day and would love to take your pup or cat (if it walks 😉) on a run/walk. Not to mention, I'll bathe them! If you have any additional questions, feel free to reach out anytime!
