“Rachel has stayed with our dogs 3 times now and we couldn’t be happier that we found her! Our dogs are so relaxed at home with her and always so happy to see her when she comes. Our “special needs” dog is especially happy when Rachel comes because he knows he will get all the attention he needs. Rachel goes out of her way to keep the house looking like she wasn’t even there. She really goes above and beyond as a dog and house sitter. I know our boys are in good hands when we leave and that gives me a lot of peace of mind. Thank you so much Rachel!”
“Ruby stayed in my home while I was out of town for work. She took amazing care of my pups, python, and plants while I was away! Came home to a clean house and happy critters, will definitely book with her again!”
“She took great care of our dogs and home while we were away. She kept us updated, followed instructions, and made sure the pups were comfortable and well cared for. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. We came home to happy, relaxed dogs and everything in great shape. Thank you, for helping make our trip much less stressful! Most importantly, she was very sweet to our babies, and that means the world to us. 🐾💕”
“Sammy was so great with our two boys!! We felt so comfortable leaving or dogs in her care and she sent us daily updates with pictures/videos! She was even able to get out picky eater to eat on schedule!! We will absolutely use her again!!”
“My family is so grateful to have found Paula! She is absolutely wonderful with our two large dogs and really put our minds at ease while traveling. She went above and beyond to make sure our pups got what they needed while we were gone and kept us updated throughout. We have one dog that typically doesn't eat when we leave, but Paula patiently sat with her and got her to eat her meals. Plus, she clearly loves dogs, especially our itty bitty pitty, and gives them so much love and attention! We will definitely hire Paula to pet sit or drop-in in the future!”
About: Completed provided training and volunteered at the Animal shelter I’m comfortable providing insulin shots or oral medications as needed I can do basic hand and commands at your request to be continuous in the training of dogs. Often referred to as the animal whisperer with over 30 years experience of loving and caring for my own and other pets including cats, dogs, hamsters, fish, bearded dragon, goats, horses, cows and turtles. My calm demeanor can aid even tho most anxious of animals. I believe animals make our lives better and would welcome the opportunity to walk and play with your pets. Caring for them like they were my own but with your needs in mind. Let me know what you need and I’m sure we can work it out. Sprocket and I love being outside. Dog walks are awesome when he too can tag along. Only with prior permission. Rovering is how i spend my days with regular clients and fitting in others where feasible. Sprocket has a small backyard for play but prefers to go for car rides in his crate for new adventures. We play both indoor and out door games. correction is made with positive reinforcement.
About: I’ve taken care of cats, I have 2 cats as well! While I was in college my roommates had dogs that I would watch when they would leave or couldn’t come home in time. I’m good with both both cats and dogs. Im currently working part time, I don’t think pet sitting is a job it’s so fun to do so I would love it as a side job. I’m also getting my masters in biomedical sciences right now My pets have access to every inch of the house and are well cared for, toys, scratch post and many treats! I love playing with them, taking them outside, feeding and can also clean litter boxes
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Bryan! He saved us super last-minute and was the perfect person to watch our two dogs. He communicated with us throughout the entire booking, which made the trip stress-free for us. Our two dogs are very high-energy, so we were worried that a sitter may be overwhelmed, but Bryan made sure they were occupied and engaged the entire stay. They all seemed to get along and really enjoy each other’s company. Bryan left our house in immaculate shape. And I mean immaculate! Our house was cleaner than what we had left it for him! If you are considering Bryan to watch your doggies/pets, don’t hesitate to reach out. He exceeded our expectations and we look forward to having him watch ours dogs again in the future. Thanks again Bryan, Jim, Claire, Otto, and Harper”
About: I have loved caring for animals since I was about 10 years old! I used to walk my neighbors’ dogs and give them baths, which helped me gain experience caring for different dogs. I also have a Doberman that I raised from a puppy and helped become very well-behaved. Raising him has taught me patience, consistency, and how important it is to understand each dog’s personality and needs. What sets me apart is my hands-on experience and the love I have for animals. I will treat your pets like my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! 🐾❤️ Writing I work part-time, usually no more than five hours a day for about three days a week, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I have school on Tuesdays from 12:40 to 3:30 p.m., but outside of those commitments, my schedule is pretty flexible. I can make time for walks, feeding, playtime, baths, and giving your pets lots of love and attention. I want to make sure your pets get the care they need while you're away! Safety and trust are very important to me when caring for pets. I always want animals to feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their environment. In a client's home, I would follow their instructions carefully, stick to the pet's normal routine, keep their space clean, and make sure they have fresh water, food, and plenty of attention. I would always be careful with doors, gates, and leashes to keep pets safe. I also understand that every animal is different, so I would take the time to learn their personality and needs. I would treat your home with respect and care for your pets as if they were my own!
About: Animal lover here! I take very good care of dogs of all kinds as demonstrated by my volunteer and pet sitting experience. I have volunteered at shelters with scared dogs large and small, fostered and trained shelter puppies, was a babysitter for puppy raisers with Guide Dogs for the Blind and served client families as a professional pet sitter. My role for others' fur babies is to provide care so that they have their needs met in their parents' absence. I am a great surrogate parent! I like to keep dog routines continued to minimize stress on pets and their people. For parents that don't have the time or for dogs that can use additional exercise, I can take dogs out for walks. I have also been a cat mom of 4 at once and love cats too! I have my dog, Brodie, and my routine revolves around him. I make sure he gets the memtal and physical stimulation and exercise he needs to be healthy and happy. I want to help my clients and pets with this as well for their families. I have a fenced yard and very dog-friendly set up at home. At client's homes, I respect the space and help pets feel secure in their routines with attention and care.
“Natalie stayed at our house and watched our dog, Lloyd, for 10 nights. She took such great care of him, making sure he was fed, got his walk and his playtime. Our dog Lloyd sometimes takes time to warm up to new people, but he liked Natalie right away! Natalie followed all our care instructions and communicated with us every day on how Lloyd was doing and sent us pictures of him. I highly recommend her as a sitter and will definitely rebook with her in the future.”
“she's is the best sitter we had, trustworthy and dependable! she loved our dog and made our puppy happy 😊 she also saved my husky! our lockbox was stuck and she couldn't get in the house we were out of town and can't get back. so she did her best and got in touch with our neighbors so my dog won't be stuck at home for 48 hours! I still couldn't thank her enough”
“Ami was incredible! I can’t overstate how easy she made it for us to leave our fur children for a few days (which is usually a very stressful and not a fun thing for me). Amy’s amazing communication kept my mind at ease knowing all of our pets were in great hands and getting lots of love. I was very impressed with Ami’s ability to navigate the dynamics of all of our pets with ease - we recently added a puppy to the family (~7 months old) and our 9 year old cats are still very much getting adjusted to having her in the house (never lived with a dog before) and Ami was able to not only keep them all from killing each other lol, but she kept them all very happy. You can tell by all the updates and pictures that they loved her and she earned their trust very quickly. I could go on with so many more examples, but I’ll leave it at she’s amazing - highly recommend!!”
About: I have taken care of cats, reptiles, and both large and small dog breeds since I was young. Working in a pet store, I have experience starting off new animal friendships on the right foot and hope to meet yours! I work in an elementary school and have availability in the afternoons and on weekends. Open availability during summer (even if it is last minute)! I am used to households with more than one pet of more than one species-- I understand that each pets living arrangement is unique and am able to accommodate for yours!
“Veronica came to my rescue after my original sitter cancelled as we were on the road driving out of state. She kept me informed and was able to give my loveable pups the attention and care they needed. Will definitely book with her again the future!!”
About: I have extensive experience with equines, dogs, cats, fish, and most reptiles. Family, friends, and strangers have trusted me to care for their animals, both with drop in visits and house/pet sitting. I currently work part time Monday-Thursday but my schedule is very flexible and can be adjusted to fit the needs of your household. I am punctual and have reliable transportation. I am great at communication and can often accept requests with little notice! I am very confident with my animal care and handling. I grew up around all sorts of animals and have always helped others with their pets. I will always put pet safety first and make sure your pets are happy and healthy!
“Words can’t begin to describe how much Erica went above and beyond to nurture, care, and absolutely SPOIL (!) our dogs during an overnight stay! Her communication was fantastic, the house was left in pristine condition, and our dogs couldn’t have been happier. She even took the extra time to tend to our dogs’ special needs (we have a geriatric little one and very hyper golden retriever), and she sent thorough videos and pictures that brought us much joy. We were blown away by Erica, and would be so lucky to use her in the future!”
“My 4 dogs are my life. It's so scary to go away and find someone to truly care for them. Rachel was fantastic, send pictures everyday. I felt very comfortable her staying in my home. My dogs were fine when I came home and that means everything to me. Simply everything.”
The median cost per night for house sitting in Offutt Lake is $50

We wouldn't trust our pets with anyone else! Ruby went above and beyond, kept us updated the entire time we were away, and our dog Mocca & cats Phoebe & Lily were so relaxed and happy when we got home. She gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our pets were so well cared for and happy when we walked through the door. We will never book anyone else! Worth every single penny—10/10 recommend!
Noelle was absolutely The Best house and petsitter I could have ever hoped for. She needed no rules to respect our home and treat it with care, and she tended to my very needy 20-year old cat with the utmost care and loving attention. She was in communication with me and reassured me that both of our cats were being treated with all the same kindness and care we would have given them. I came home to clean litter boxes and my home as neat and clean as when we left town. Her sense of propriety and respect are exemplary. She is our go-to petsitter from now on!

FAQs for House Sitting - Offutt Lake
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 1,374 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Offutt Lake. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Offutt Lake walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Offutt Lake maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Offutt Lake choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
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.
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.
