About: My name is Claire and I am a PA student at Creighton University! I am 26 and moved from Steamboat Springs, CO where I watched many furry friends through Rover and absolutely loved doing it! I am originally from Chicago and love doing anything outdoors such as skiing and running, but also love ending the day nice and cozy watching a movie or reading a book. More importantly, I love dogs of all ages and would love to care for your awesome dog! I had a labradoodle for 15 years growing up whom I adored and sadly cannot have a dog of my own at this stage of my life, but am looking for a buddy to care for to get my fix! I am responsible, organized, and easy going. I will provide very good care of your pet and give lots of pets, walks/runs, and love! I am free to answer all questions about scheduling and flexibility. I hope to hear from you soon! Your dog needs a good buddy while you are away and I really hope that person is me! I am a full time student in Omaha, but have lots of breaks throughout the day to give your pet lots of love! While school will be hectic, you can be assured that I will take your pet on a lot of exercise when I am home (If they are up for it) as it is a great break for me in my studies. I will feed, walk, and play with your pets! I love animals and live in a pet-friendly area where I have easy access to walking/running trails.
About: I grew up with dogs and have had 2 of my own for 8 years. I love meeting new dogs of any breed and size. I'm flexible with early morning, afternoon and evenings to stop in and let your dog out or play and run some energy out. Walks are welcome exercise. I walk my own dogs twice a day and ensure they get plenty of snuggles and treats. I'd treat your dog like they're my own.
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover and owner with a soft spot for big dogs. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies (including raising my own golden retriever and helping my parents w a litter of English bulldog puppies), to sweet seniors (like my sister’s 14 year old German shorthair pointer). I’m patient, flexible, and ready to match the unique energy and personality of your dog. As a nurse, I’m comfortable caring for dogs w medical needs. As a dog owner, I know how important it is to find someone you trust and who you know your dog will be comfortable with. With my golden, I always tried to arrange an overnight sitter at our house so he could stay in his own comfortable environment while we were away. I’m happy to do overnight stays w your dog in your home. I follow care routines closely so your pup will feel safe and happy! Walking and hiking are some of my favorite ways to spend time w dogs. But I’m also just as happy to lounge around and watch a movie with a couch potato or senior dog! Whether your pup loves adventures or just snuggles, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and care! Note that I’m not as familiar w other kinds of pets (I have only owned dogs) but have taken care of birds and cats in the past and would be open to learning more about other pet types to see if it would be a good fit if you have dogs and other pets :) I work full time (8.5 hours, Monday through Friday), but could stop by over my lunch break if your dog cannot go that long without a potty break. (As long as I had advance notice so I could arrange my schedule accordingly). Other than that, I’m available mornings and evenings for dog walks in my area (near med center or near west side high school) I’m also available for overnights if your dog needs someone to stay with them while you’re gone. My weekends are generally more flexible for longer walks and playtime. I currently cannot host dogs in my own home, so all care would take place in your home, where your dog is comfortable and familiar I’m tidy, respectful and treat your space and your pups as if they were my own. During overnights, I provide calm, consistent companionship, keeping routines stable and ensuring your dog never feels lonely or stressed, following your rules, schedule and preferences. Safety is always my top priority: secure leashing, supervision and clear communication. You’ll get updates (if desired) with photos and honest check-in’s so you can relax while your dog is in my care
About: I've house sat and pet sat for family and friends since my youth as favors. Most pets tend to warm to me fairly quickly and let me carry them or pet them on the first meeting. My professional career is focused in child care and development. I've worked with 5-18 years old in various positions. My last position was teaching and caring for teenage youth, who were transitioning from incarceration to their parent's home, at a group home. I am used to dealing with crisis under pressure with a calm demeanor and resolving it to the best of my ability. I am CPR and First Aid trained and certified in non-violent crisis management. I am currently available for all the services I specified in my profile Monday through Friday from as early as 10 am - 7 pm. I am also available for overnight house sitting jobs. While house sitting, I take safety/health of the pets and security of the surrounding area as the #1 priority. When I took care of my pets and others i. My own space, I'd block off any areas in the home that could be damaged or cause injury, if a pet got into it. I always made sure to engage with the pets I cared for, whether, playing fetch or running around with them. I made sure they expended that seemingly bottomless tank of energy.
“Mikayla is awesome! She provided the sweetest care and great updates we have the shy cat who never appears and Mikayla was able to coax her out of her shell for pets and appearances which we appreciated so much! Mikayla also added extra appointments to provide care and it was so kind of her! We will refer Mikayla to all our friends and totally use her again!”

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my deep love and understanding of dogs! I have two adorable toy poodles one is 2 years old and the other is just 8 months and they are truly my babies. Through raising them, I’ve gained a lot of experience with dogs of different ages and personalities. I’ve spent about a year in total attending training sessions to learn how to read dog behaviors, recognize their comfort levels, and train them with patience and love. I can tell when a dog is happy, nervous, or unsure, and I always make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’ve personally trained both of my dogs, and they are sweet, well-behaved pups thanks to the time and effort I’ve put in. I would treat your dogs just like I do mine—with kindness, attention, and lots of love! I also offer a safe and happy home environment with a fenced-in yard where dogs can play freely and securely. I work from home two days a week, so I’m able to keep an eye on your pet and provide care, snuggles, and playtime throughout the day. I know how important it is for pet parents to feel at ease when they’re away, and I promise to care for your dog like they’re part of the family. Whether they’re a playful puppy or a senior who just wants to relax, I’ll make sure they feel right at home! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine because it’s something I truly enjoy and prioritize. I currently work full time, but I’m usually available after 5:30 PM on weekdays to provide care, playtime, and attention to your pet. On weekends, I’m very flexible and available most of the time, which allows for longer visits, walks, or overnight stays if needed. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I’m happy to adjust my schedule to make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and happy. Two days a week, I work from home, which gives me even more flexibility to care for pets throughout the day. Whether that means letting them out for potty breaks, giving them one-on-one attention, or simply being there so they’re not alone, I’m able to provide a calm and caring environment. Since I already care for my own two dogs daily, routines like feeding, walking, and playtime are already built into my day. Adding more furry friends to that routine is something I truly look forward to it’s not just a task, but something I genuinely love doing! When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and fun environment. I have a fully fenced in yard where dogs can play and explore safely, along with a variety of dog toys and puzzles to keep them engaged and entertained. Inside, I have three separate rooms, which makes it easy to give dogs their own space if they need a break or prefer quiet time. Since I have two toy poodles of my own, I also have plenty of cozy blankets, beds, and enrichment toys to help make every dog feel right at home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both the dog and their space with the utmost respect and care—just as I would hope someone would do in my own home. I follow all instructions provided, stick to the dog’s usual routine, and make sure to respect any house rules or preferences. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and cared for in a familiar setting, while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every pet like family!

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.

About: I’ve had a pet in my house since the day I was born up until I left for college. I only had dogs before college, but now I have my own cat. I’m dependable, laid back, flexible, and will treat your pets like they’re my own. I have given my own pets both pills and shots before and I can train puppies pretty well (I potty trained my yorkie male and morkie male on my own). I am also experienced in caring for pets with special needs. I adopted a cat named Moose who has diabetes, and he gets 2 does of insulin every day. He’s already gained back 2.5 pounds since he’s been with me, and he has so much more energy now. Believe me, your pets will be in great hands I graduated from Loyola University New Orleans two years ago and I am now a graduate student at UNMC. I just recently moved to Omaha but I’m all settled in and hoping to take up pet sitting again for the next few years! My schedule with school is pretty flexible. I’m also working at the Zoo’s aftercare program from 3-6:30 most weekdays, but that can be flexible as well I live in an apartment in Dundee, right next to Elmwood park. It’s a great place to walk dogs, but I’m also willing to put them in the car and bring them to their favorite spots while I’m caring for them!
“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: Hello! I’ve worked with pets of all ages, from young puppies to senior cats. As a cat mom myself, I know that pets are family, and how important it is for your pet to be with someone they can trust while you’re away. I have extensive experience providing attention and active engagement with all types of pets. I would love to care for your pets and provide them with a welcoming, trusting face while you're away. I work full-time, but have options to work from home if needed, and can use lunch breaks as a potty break for your furry friend. I love spending time with pets, providing them with enrichment, and a loving, interactive environment. I care for pets by providing them with proper attention and watching their behaviors to determine cues. I have extensive experience with both cats and dogs, providing them with a welcoming environment with someone they, and you, can trust.

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!!

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.
