About: As a pet owner of 28 years, I know how stressful it is to leave your fur babies behind for hours on end, and my goal is to relieve you and your pet of any worries! I love taking dogs for walks for stimulation and activity. Your dog will receive my care with attention to pacing, any health concerns, and lots of fun! My schedule changes weekly, meaning I am very flexible for your needs. Generally weekdays during normal working hours is when I am the most free! As a walker, I don’t offer services from my own home but would love to keep pet parents updated with photos of my walks with your pets!
“Robert was great for our 3 dogs, especially with a shy older dog and a rambunctious younger dog (plus the very chill one in between!). He kept us well updated and even brainatormed some ways to make our shy guy more comfortable. Thanks!!!”
“Marc’s relationship with my dogs continues to grow due to his kind and patient interactions with them. They are comfortable with him and it does my heart good to see that they like and trust him.”
“Lisa is a godsend! I have a cat with diabetes that requires shots twice a day which makes it difficult to leave town without having someone to administer the shots. My cat took to her right away and I was able to enjoy a weekend out of town knowing he was being taken care of!”
About: I've had the most honorable pleasure of being part of my own late fur babies (dogs) lives for 17 and 14 years. As well as my first ever cat, Catwoman (sorry girl, for the typical young child name). Then a few others as life went on, Anastasia, Callie, and Izzy (Isabella). Caring for and loving them was my pleasure and took me on many lifelong learning adventures. In order to make a difference for the loves of my lives I have decided to offer my heart to pet care. If given the chance, I can only hope to show your pets love like their own, trust, snuggles, fun, and more...everything they've ever dreamed of. Thank you for entrusting your very special babies to me. I look forward to meeting any and all of them. Due to being a stay at home homemaker it seems I have plenty of time to devote to loving and caring for your loves as if they were my own. I'm available and open to accommodate many different schedules. As of now I am available to care for your loved ones in their own setting where they're most comfortable. Your home is where I'm able to love and care for your furbabies. There are also many possibilities for walking, and I also offer vet visit care. That's as in being your pets' veterinary appointment partner.
“Meagan was a great sitter with our two pups. She connected with them immediately and we felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. Meagan also maintained good communication with us whole she was pet sitting. We would definitely recommend her to others.”
“Mikayla is amazing!! Highly recommend her to everyone. We have an older shy kitty and in just two appointments Mikayla was able to become sweet friends with her!! Mikayla is so super attentive and kind and communicates with us so well!! She is terrific!! Please use her! She is a cat whisperer!”

About: Hi, I’m Kharmen and I’m a proud dog mom to Peggy and Brisbane! I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust, and I treat every dog in my care like they’re my own. I’m attentive, compassionate, and happy to follow your pet’s routine, whether that means long walks, playtime, extra cuddles, or a cozy day on the couch. My goal is always for your pup to feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away! I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your dogs! I wake up early with my dog and cater to her feeding, potty, and playing schedule throughout the day. I have a very friendly and trained dog who would love to play with your dog! I can appease to any specific care instructions or information as I want to give your dog the best treatment.
About: I've lived with dogs for as long as I can remember. These dogs have ranged in sizes from a 17 lbs Chavachon to a 176 pound Great Dane. I started dog sitting back in 2019, both at my house and at the clients house. These dogs include a beagle, miniature poodles and an Australian cattle dog. I am currently an Animal Control Officer for the Nebraska Humane Society..Therefore I'm used to working with animals of all sizes. This includes dog that are fearful, energetic, slightly unruly and fearful. My current dog is very dog reactive so I know how to keep them calm, under control and am very adapt at reading body language. I currently am employed as an Animal Control Officer, I work days Thursday-Monday, but on those days I can stop in after work. My days off are mostly clear, and can be changed to fit around when care for your dog is needed. I am attentive to each dog and their needs based on the information I am given and will strictly stick to what the owner has requested for me to do in order to take care of their dog and keep both owner and dog happy. If I am uncertain about a specific requisition or am unsure if I would be allowed to do something with the dog (ex- take them to my mothers and see their dogs) I would never do it until I got verbal or a text confirming that it is okay for me to do.
“I appreciate the very last minute help and flexibility. Great being able to handle 2 large dogs! Made this travel RN feel much better about not being able to be with the dogs for 14 hours. They were left in good hands.”
About: Been taking care of my friends and family’s dogs for most of my life. I absolutely love pets and you can trust that your dogs will be safely taken care of and will have a good time! I’m currently working on an early morning shift Monday-Friday so I have plenty of time to take care of pets in the afternoon! It works out great because I have no other responsibilities in the afternoon and love being outside walking dogs on my free time! I cannot take care of other pets in my own home but in clients home I make sure that they have everything they need, prioritize their health and wellbeing and make sure that I give them all of my attention while I’m with them.
About: I will take great care of your pets just like I would my own love them just like they were mine and spoil them probably more than you lol we go for walks. If they’re at my home they’re allowed on the furniture, the bed because my home is their home. I do work during the day Mon-Fri but I am home evenings and weekends. I will stay at your home so your pet is more comfortable I will make sure that your pet is well loved and taken care of. We can take walks, fetch balls and get tummy rubs. I love being around animals they bring me great joy. I also enjoy being able to help families take time for themselves without worrying about their pets
“Erika was wonderful!! She accommodated all of our needs when we were out of town and kept us updated with pictures and notes throughout her stay!! We feel so comfortable that our cats are in good hands with her!”
About: I’ve always had at least one animal since i was a child, I’ve worked as a kennel tech and I’ve been to vet school! I have a couple cats and a dog, they are my WORLD!! My dog had a bad life before I adopted him, and I completely trained him myself with very little help. He is a perfect, well behaved angel now! My schedule is pretty open! I am a stay at home wife and I’m in school, so I have plenty of time on my hands to care for your pets! I am thoroughly knowledgeable on all things dog safety related, my pooch has had a rough go at it so I’ve take courses on animal CPR, de-escalation training, and I am familiar with taking care of animals with health issues. Every pet is different and they all need varying levels of care and comfort requirements.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Omaha
Candy took great care of our two elderly pups while we were on vacation. She was reliable, on time, gave updates regularly, and had great communication. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our pups. My pups need some extra care in their senior years and Candy handled everything from medication to doggy diapers. I will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!
Jack is an awesome dog sitter!! Very reliable and understanding of the personalities of our dogs for drop in visits and dog walks. We were very comfortable with Jack caring for our dogs in our home while we were away and he kept us well informed during his visits. Highly recommend and we will book again!!

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Omaha is $18 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $28 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 1,031 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Omaha. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Omaha 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!
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 .
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.
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 .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
