“Theresa will go above and beyond to make sure your home and animals are safe. Our pups love and trust her. We’re so grateful to have met her. We will 100% book 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.”
“We couldn't have asked for a better experience with Bryce watching Frankie at our home. From the start, we felt completely at ease knowing Frankie was in such capable and caring hands. Bryce was attentive, reliable, and clearly loves what he does. What really stood out was how Bryce went above and beyond basic pet care. Not only did he take excellent care of Frankie, but he also thoughtfully brought in our packages and took out the trash without us even asking. These extra touches made a huge difference and allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our time away without any worries. Frankie was happy and content when we returned home, which speaks volumes about the quality of care Bryce provides. We would absolutely book with Bryce again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and caring in-home pet sitter. Thank you, Bryce!”
“We have used Rachel multiple times for our dog, and she is great! She's very responsive, sends us pictures and updates throughout her stay, and takes care of our home like it's her own. We definitely recommend Rachel!”
“Laura helped us out in a pinch. She’s prompt and took care of our high energy pup and made sure he got plenty of walks in. I appreciate her taking such good care of him while we were gone.”
“Emily was amazing with my dog while I was out of town. She kept me informed, sent me pictures everyday, checked my mail, and watched my house. My house was very clean and my dog was happy when I returned from my work trip. I highly recommend Emily for all pet and house sitting needs.”
“Brandy is great! She is very reliable and communicative. I have a large dog who can be a lot to handle around other dogs and she does great with him. Brandy also house sat for me when my dog had a minor injury. She was on top of managing his care and reporting on his progress while I was away--and sent lots of great pictures. To boot, I returned to a very clean house. I highly recommend Brandy!”
About: I am a young teacher who loves animals. I love all pets as if they were my own and am super flexible with any situations.

I am super gentle and love giving pets. I am flexible with any directions or considerations you may have!
“Great with all of our cats and dogs who all have very different personalities to negotiate! Very detail oriented to make sure the animals all get the individual care that they need. Timely and dependable for walks during the day and overnight house sitting. Great communication.”
“He maintained good communication with us while we were away. Was nice enough to bring in our mail and take our trash bins out without us asking. Went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were taken care of.”
About: I have taken care of several dogs for a couple of clients over the years as a side gig but now looking to expand my pet caring opportunities more. I am patient and reliable and I tailor my care to the needs of each pet. I am very flexible with my schedule as I am newly retired. Whatever your pets needs are, I will be willing and able to accommodate. I am able to stay in your home so your pet will be able to feel safe and comfortable in their familiar surroundings and you will have peace of mind that they are being well cared for and loved.
About: Hi, I am a recent ASU grad and living in downtown Omaha! I just started work full time as a server but would still love to housesit! At home my family has three dogs, four cats, a horse, and chickens so I am no stranger to animals. I grew up taking care of neighbors animals since middle school. My sister and I nursed one puppy back to health from parvo so I am familar with high maintence doggos. I miss my crew of animals at home so I am here to get my fix loving your pets. I have mostly open availability as I am new to the area so I am able to be almost full time with your pet or provide feedings and walkings as you need. :) I am able to stay at your home with your pet so their routine does not need to be disturbed or come and go, whatever your preference!
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.
About: I have had both dogs and cats in my household. I don’t currently have a pet, and would love to provide care for your pet! I am a retired teacher with a flexible schedule. I am available weekdays and weekends. Pet care works very well in my current situation and lifestyle. Caring for another person’s pet must align with their preferences, routines, and individual needs. I have cared for each of my pets according to their personality and needs, and my vision for discipline and routine.
About: I grew up with dogs, so caring for pups has always been a natural part of my life. I’m lucky to live near several parks—including a dog park—so pups will get plenty of opportunities for exercise and fresh air. My schedule also allows me to stop by during lunch breaks, which helps keep pets on their normal routine. Walking is also one of my favorite pastimes so your pet can expect lots of those :) I currently have a couple of cats of my own who are comfortable around other animals for overnight stays. I know how much I miss my kitties when I’m out, so you can expect pictures and updates throughout the days. I aim to provide dependable, attentive care just like I’d hope for my own. Am no stranger to medical needs as well and am comfortable providing medicines as needed Weekends I am completely available to stop by in your home or I offer overnight stays at my home. I have a roommate whose schedule is available during the day so overnight stays can be offered during the week as well. I work a typical 9-5 throughout the week but am available before, during lunch or afterwards in the evenings during the week for stop ins depending on location I have a large backyard and localized access to multiple dog parks and trails. I own two kitties myself that are comfortable around both dogs and cats.
About: I have two dogs of my own that I take on short walks everyday and longer walks when I have time. I’ve watched my family’s dogs over weekends. I work two part time jobs so I’d be able to do pet care between both shifts, or after I’m done with both which is around 6:30 PM, or on weekends. When I watch pets I keep them company by playing with them, going outside with them, and making sure that they eat when they’re supposed to.
“This was my first time having Ella sit at my house and she was great with Gideon! She followed my instructions for feeding him and foods to avoid (he has allergies) and didn’t have any issues giving him his meds. She left my house in great condition and Gideon seemed overall very happy when I got home.”

If needed, my dogs can be kept away and your dogs have their own private room, and or also kenneled when needed, we have a large kennel unless provided. I am also available for in house pet sitting aswell as walks, check-ins, etc. I have experience with in-house and just got done watching my neighbors 3 dogs for a month long pet & house sit.

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!
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.
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!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Omaha is $47 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $80 per night. 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.

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 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Omaha. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
