About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, which has given me hands-on experience caring for pets of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. What sets me apart is my natural comfort and understanding of animals—I’m attentive to their behavior, patient with their needs, and focused on making them feel safe and at ease while you’re away. I have experience with both energetic puppies and older pets who need a gentler approach. Whether it’s helping reinforce basic training for young dogs, sticking to routines, or providing calm, attentive care for seniors, I adjust my approach to fit each pet. I’m also comfortable managing multiple pets and following specific care instructions closely. Above all, I treat every pet like they’re my own—with reliability, compassion, and plenty of attention. I am currently working part time, so my availability is flexible for walks and drop-in visits! I do have my own furry friend, so I am unavailable for extended visits and overnight care. I will treat your fur baby like they are my own - frequent walks, play time, and all the snuggles! Safety is a must for me, so I promise your dog and home will always be safe in my care.
“Ellie has been helping us out by walking our dog, Wally, a few days a week. She is reliable and sends me a picture of Wally on his walks every time! Wally is a high energy dog and he is visibly calmer on days he gets to walk with Ellie! We can tell that he loves his walks with her and can tell that she treats him with love and kindness! He now knows her name and gets excited every morning when I tell him that Ellie is coming to see him later! We’re grateful to have a trustworthy person to spend time with him when we’re busy working. We will continue to hire Ellie as often as we can! Thank you Ellie!”
“Rachel was fantastic! Communication was excellent from start to finish, and she kept me updated throughout the walks. I felt completely comfortable with her handling my medium-large sized dog, and everything went smoothly. My dog was well cared for and will definitely book with her again. Highly recommend reaching out to Rachel for your Rover needs!”
About: My roommate has worked in vetcare for over 2 years and has taught me a lot of extra skills for taking care of pets. My grandparents had an Old Golden Retriever, a Border Collie, and a Young Labrador Retriever, so I can handle LOTS of energy, or provide an environment for gentle exercise. I'm working towards becoming qualified to train service dogs! I also grew up with 2 cats, and now have 3! So I know how to recognize and respect a pet's boundaries while encouraging a healthy level of play. I have never lived anywhere without a pet, and would never want to! I'm currently working a Part-Time Job, but will have and/or make time for your pets. Any day, and anytime between 8am and 12am, I can find availability. I have a roommate to help take care of our cats while I'm out which is what gives me the time to take care of your pets! I have dog clothes and cat clothes, allergies will not be an issue for you, your pets, or myself. I have a basic and growing understanding of simple dog training as I progress towards my goal. I am also proficient in teaching cats to start or (if they're willing) stop doing things.
“So glad I found Brooks! He has experience with Boxers and knows what they can be like as young adolescents. Emma adored him, and he became her best friend immediately. Brooks was prompt and on time and the communication was outstanding!”
About: Please read in entirety to help everyone find the best match for both our home and your pet(s). Disclosure - Things that are helpful for sitters/walkers/daycare providers Please complete your profile in entirety, including any and all pertinent information regarding your pet. Rover has an excellent platform for owners to detail care instructions and these profiles are very helpful in providing A+ service. I do not accept new clients who have not completed their pet care profiles, who have not provided veterinary contact information, and who are not able/willing to start the sitting/walking/daycare process with a brief meet and greet. It is also extremely important that you are open and honest about your dogs behavior and tendencies. It can be very stressful for a dog to stay in a different home with new, unfamiliar animals, and the more I know about your pet's needs and habits, the better we will be at providing excellent service. New clients will be carefully vetted so as to ensure I can care for your fur buddy to the best of my ability. My Experience I've had dogs my whole life, from backyard pets to sled dogs, to indoor cuddle buddies. Dogs get me, and I get them. I'll take care of your beloved family member and make sure to treat them like my own. Whether it be a daily walk, a brief play date, or an overnight, I can handle the nuances of the situation and the unique personality of your pooch! My Home and Neighborhood I live alone and will be the sole caretaker of your dog. I have a spacious home so if your pet needs his/her own space, I can accommodate. I also have a fenced in yard but will monitor all guests as I’ve learned that a fence won’t keep the curious ones in, no matter how high! And without any pets of my own at this time, your dog will have a quiet and stress free home to relax in. My neighborhood is very walkable with many parks just a few minutes away. Please let me know if there’s anything unique or special about your buddy and I’ll cater to his/her needs. All animals (humans included!) are unique and I’ll mold the experience to ensure that your family member feels as though he/she is at home. About Me I was born in the Omaha area but have lived in quite a few places in either the US or abroad. I’m a former Peace Corps Volunteer, and now work with youth in the juvenile justice system. I also coach distance runners in track and cross country. I have done a wonderful job of creating a healthy and happy home, both inviting and accommodating. I work daytime hours, 2 minutes from home and can check in with overnight guests regularly. I am almost always home in the evening and this will certainly be the case if I have overnight guests. Expectations I will welcome new animals into our home and treat them like family. With this intention, I do require your pet be current on vaccinations, housebroken, and friendly. I require a meet and greet so I can learn from you on how best to care for your pet. Lastly My intentions here on Rover isn’t to make money as much as it is to provide a meaningful service. I really do love animals and find them to be so enjoyable to be around. My goal is to care for your furry family member as if he/she were my own. I look forward to meeting the dog in your life and the opportunity to make a new furry friend! Feel free to reach out and we can arrange a meeting to see if we can work together! I look forward to hearing from you! I am currently working full time but have a flex schedule which allows me to spend time throughout the day at home with my guests. Your pet will not be alone for more than a few hours at at time during the weekdays and even less so during the weekends. I have a fenced in yard but always monitor new guest so as to ensure they are safe and secure. I’ve learned from the curious ones!
About: Hi there! My name is Chelsea, and I have cared for pets of many different species, age, and size. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from Chihuahuas to Tibetan Mastiffs and everything in between! I also have experience with puppies as well as senior pets. I have administered oral medications and injections for insulin and subcutaneous fluids. I am comfortable with drop-ins, walks, and overnight care at your home. Please let me know how I can help you and take care of your sweet pets! I recently relocated to Omaha to work for the library. I am currently part-time and my schedule will be flexible. Looking forward to seeing how I can help! I do not board pets at my house. I have worked in many different client's homes and always treat everyone with respect. I am happy to supply references.
“Very straightforward experience with Ben. He was easy to communicate with and did exactly what we asked. He sent a picture of our dog with a beaming smile so clearly he made him very comfortable. Will definitely be using again!”
About: I have been watching friends and family animals for as long as I can remember. I love being able to give comfort to the animals when their parents are not able to. I’m currently available full-time to do either visits or house sit. Watching your fur babies bring some excitement into my daily routine and give them the care they need. I am able to sit at the client’s house-or overnight stays at this time. I am able to have pets in my house as long as they get along with cats as I have two of them.
“Zach has been such a wonderful and consistent walker for our dog! I could tell right away that he just gets dogs and they love him. I know my dog is thrilled when he is there and he has even helped us use a more gentle and positive approach to training him on a leash. Thank you Zach!”
About: There’s nothing better than coming home to a happy dog and a wagging tail! As a longtime dog mom myself, I know how important it is to feel confident that your pets are safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of love and attention when you can’t be there. I’m self-employed, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to work with pet parents to find a routine that works best for their pets. I offer drop-in visits, walks, daytime pet sitting, and overnight stays in your home or mine. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes, from energetic puppies who are still working on potty training and routines to senior dogs who may need a little extra patience, attention, medication, and care. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal schedule and keep things as familiar and comfortable as possible while you’re away. Whether your dog needs a walk, a game of fetch or tug-of-war, some backyard playtime, meals and fresh water, or simply some company and plenty of cuddles, I’m happy to give them the attention they’re used to while you’re gone. Every pet has their own personality and routine, and I want you to have peace of mind knowing yours is being cared for like I’d want someone to care for my own. I am self employed and work from home most days so I have plenty of time for snuggles and walks! On days that I do leave home for appointments, I am usually not gone for long and if running errands, I can take pets with for a car ride! I have access to a private fenced dog run area perfect for getting some time to play off leash. We also live downtown so there is no shortage of places to walk and explore. If your pet is more of a couch potato, we can lounge and relax inside!
“Helped walk both of our 60 pound dogs for a full week while wife was out of town. Dogs are always well-exercised when I come home and Danny always keeps the apartment clean and tidy. Continues to be a huge value-add for us.”
“Linda has been walking Smokey for a year and has been fantastic to work with. She’s flexible, always willing to help out in a pinch and most importantly Smokey adores her. We feel so lucky to have found her!”
“We are so grateful for Jennifer caring for and walking our dog! We received great updates and photos, and Luna clearly looked forward to and enjoyed her time with Jennifer. We’ll definitely reach out again!”
About: I have been a lifetime pet owner, small to big. I helped raise 6 vizsla puppies in 2023 and continue to care for 3 of them when they need it. I have two cats myself that I love dearly. I also already work with dogs full time at a doggy daycare!! I am currently working full time so I will have time to take care of your fur baby in the morning and in the evening!! As a dog walker I will respect your home and space by not touching or wandering in spaces that I don’t need to be in. I will also respect your dog and their boundaries, I’m used to dogs that don’t like people and dogs that like people a little bit too much. There’s not much I won’t be able to handle!!
About: Hi! My name is Mia and I am originally from Colorado, but now work as a nurse at Children’s. I have had two or more pets in my household growing up, and am a dog lover. I have watched and taken care of dogs my whole life. Would love to meet your fur babies!! I am currently free every weekend and Monday, so I have plenty of time to watch and play with your pups! I am also free on Fridays after noon to dog sit!! I do not have any pets at home so all of my attention will go to your first baby. I love to walk over to the dog park across the street from my apartment where your dog can play, and I also have a large dog run attached to my apartment to let your dog run in off leash!!

Rachel was fantastic! Communication was excellent from start to finish, and she kept me updated throughout the walks. I felt completely comfortable with her handling my medium-large sized dog, and everything went smoothly. My dog was well cared for and will definitely book with her again. Highly recommend reaching out to Rachel for your Rover needs!
Leaving my dogs with someone else is something I almost never do because I don't trust many people to care for them the way I do. After having Angela watch my two dogs for 11 days, I can confidently say she exceeded every expectation I had. From the very beginning, Angela was incredibly communicative. She provided detailed updates throughout each day, along with plenty of photos and videos that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She never left me wondering how they were doing, and it was obvious she genuinely cared about their well-being rather than simply checking in on them. What impressed me most was how quickly my dogs bonded with her. They're usually cautious around new people, but they clicked with Angela almost immediately. It was clear they were comfortable, happy, and treated like family. Seeing that meant everything to me. Angela was thorough, attentive, and went above and beyond in every aspect of their care. She paid attention to the little details, kept their routine consistent, and treated my home and my dogs with the utmost respect and professionalism. Without question, Angela is the best dog sitter I've ever had. It's incredibly rare to find someone you can completely trust with your pets, and I can honestly say I've found that person. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who is reliable, compassionate, trustworthy, and genuinely passionate about caring for animals. Thank you, Angela, for taking such amazing care of my two dogs, I won't hesitate to book with you again!

We will continue to hire Ellie as often as we can! Thank you Ellie!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Omaha is $19 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $28 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 November 2026, there are 971 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Omaha. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Omaha. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Omaha after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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 walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Omaha. On Rover:
- 89% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers 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 walker.
