“Emily did great with Coppers first sitting ever! He really took to her and seems happy and healthy as ever. I really appreciated the number of videos and pictures she sent and her walking me through the process (since I’d never done it). She also cleaned up very nicely after herself which was a relief to come to!”

“We can't say enough of how much we appreciate Jack and Kate. They came to our rescue last minute when another sitter left us with zero notice the day before we were flying out for two weeks. They were excellent with our pups and kept us showered in pics of them. We have a difficult dog, and we can tell he was very well taken care of. Thanks again - you saved our trip!”

About: Hello! I have had dogs and cared for many a majority of my life. I have two long haired chihuahuas now who are 10 and 11 years old. I am home full time to board or provide doggy day care to your fur babies. I am pretty flexible if you would like to first schedule a meet and greet. I have a fenced backyard which your dogs can play in when they are here. I have an 18 year old son who loves dogs, he also helps when it comes to giving rhe best to any fur baby that stays with us. We love others pets like they are our own. If the weather is not bad, we love to take walks. Our two long haired chihuahuas are friendly, they just tend to bark a lot at first when meeting new friends! I am currently available full time to board your pups! I am hoping for ongoing long term set schedules but am also very flexible. If your fur baby is staying here, I will be home the whole time with them. I have a fenced backyard where dogs can play. They will get lots of cuddles if they are cuddlers! We are home full time so they will get lots of attention during their stay!
About: I am a lover of all living things. I prefer to scoop up bugs and spiders instead of smooshing them. I have great empathy towards dogs and cats. Us hoomans don’t deserve them. I’m ready to spoil yours! I do work in a busy doctors office Monday thru Friday 9-5, however I am available evenings, nights and weekends and excited to care for your furbabies. I lease a townhome in a townhome community. I do not have a fenced yard but have a yard and a great neighborhood to take them out for their potty breaks and a great walk.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Omaha
Kara was amazing with Bernie!! She was so responsive, sent me lots of pictures and was very detailed about when she was coming/leaving. I also loved that she spent lots of time with him, which I know helped calm his separation anxiety. She even drew me a cute little picture of him💗 I will absolutely book her again!!
I had the most favorable experience with Jack pet sitting my dog. From start to finish my interactions with Jack were completely positive and professional. I had no worries while he was taking care of my dog while I was out of town. Jack sent daily photos, which was a welcome plus. Jack knows how to take care of dogs & interact with them & love them.
We got a new puppy 10 d before our vacation Desirey was awesome! She happily took on our two dogs and kept working on potty training the new puppy did just fine and we came home to a happy house. If there was an option for more than a 20% tip I would do it. Thanks so much Desirey!
Deborah was fantastic! She stayed with our two pups while we were away for a long weekend. Our older dog had recently undergone surgery and was still recovering, so we were especially nervous about leaving her. Deborah kept a close eye on her and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Both dogs were happy and well cared for, and our older pup looked great when we returned. We couldn’t be more pleased with our experience and would absolutely recommend Deborah!
We had a great experience with Alexis! She stayed in our home with Poppy while we were away on a cruise and had great communication throughout our trip. She sent us photos and videos, and Poppy always looked happy and well cared for, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to a clean and tidy house and a happy pup! We were very pleased and will definitely be using her again.
Abbie was absolutely wonderful! She has such a bright a bubbly personality, our dogs warmed up to her really fast which was surprising and made me feel really happy. Shes really great about sending photos and communicating throughout the time she was with them. I would absolutely recommend her.
Ebone did a great job taking care of our dog, Mae, while we visited family. It was our first time leaving her alone, but we came back to a happy dog napping in her kennel. Ebone also sent us some very cute pictures of their walks and some snuggle time on the couch.
Taegan is an amazing sitter! I never felt worried about my cats when she was watching them. She sent multiple pictures throughout the time she watched them and always made sure to keep me updated on how they were doing! I’ve booked with her twice and my cats love her. I would recommend her a hundred times over - she’s amazing!

The average cost of House Sitting in Omaha is $46 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $81 per night.

As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

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 Omaha 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 Omaha 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 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!
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.
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 .
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 .
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.
