“Crystal was amazing with my two dogs. She showed them all the love they needed while I was away! I 100% recommend for anyone’s needs while your away for your furry friends.”
“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!!!”
“Morgan took great care of my Jefferson over the Thanksgiving holiday, going well above and beyond to take care of him and to make sure he was having a good time with me multiple states away. Morgan was very communicative throughout the entire process – before and during the booking – and sent great pics, which made me feel really comfortable my old boy was in great hands. Seeing how happy he was when I got home only affirms that. Absolutely would recommend Morgan to anyone!”
“I had really enjoyed having Sierra watching my cats while I was gone. I will definitely use her again and refer to people. I know taking care of our pets is like having someone babysit our kids that you trust and believing they are being care for.”
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.
About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals all my life. Grew up on a farm locally and cared for every animal you can imagine. I’m a recently retired educator with a huge heart. I have a safe and clean home and a fenced in back yard! I presently have 1 dog named Chase who is a 3 year old, well mannered and well trained Pomeranian.Ive had both dogs and cats in past 25 plus years. I will care for your furry family member as if they are my own. Since I am retired I have flexibility with my schedule. I am able to schedule care during the work week to include drop ins, walks and even over night and long term care. I have a large fully fenced back yard. I even have an added puppy fence layer to ensure even the smallest pups are safe and secure. My neighborhood is excellent for dog walking as well. Chase my 10 lb pom is excellent company and a fun playmate.
About: I I have experience pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, caring for dogs and cats of different breeds and temperaments. My responsibilities have included daily walks, feeding, cleaning litter boxes, giving medications, and providing companionship. I understand how important routine and reassurance are when owners are away. I currently work from home. So my schedule is pretty flexible! Plenty of times to go on walks and playtime! With advanced notice I am very accommodating to meet your needs. I provide loving, reliable care whether pets stay in my home or I care for them in theirs. My top priorities are safety, trust, and maintaining a calm, comfortable environment. I always follow each pet’s routine closely — including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions — to help them feel secure and stress-free.
About: I’ve taken care of pets for 10+ years, from cats to giant dogs. I have two dogs of my own, and have had cats in the past, so I understand the individual needs of each animal. Senior dogs have a special place in my heart. I’m currently working part time, 3 days a week! My schedule changes week to week, but I am open and flexible to changing my schedule! I can easily crate or move your dogs if I need to! I am eager to earn their trust and am willing to bribe them with treats. I understand each pet has different needs and I am adaptable to them!
“Bailey was an amazing dog sitter! She was very communicative and kept me updated throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. My doggos were clearly well taken care of and happy. I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to her again in the future!”
About: I have always been a dog mom, since the start of adulthood. I was raised with cats and dogs in the home. Professionally, I am a child mental health therapist, and as part of my prior training in Psychology, I completed a field experience at the Nebraska Humane Society using behavior modification to train dogs. I have spent many years housesitting, dog sitting and cat sitting during my professional schooling. As my stepchildren are almost all grown and out of the home, I have found myself with some extra time and would love to help your family with care for your fur babies. I have experience with senior pets as well as giving medications. No reptile experience. I currently have a very flexible schedule and I’m able to make my own schedule at work. This will allow me the flexibility to care for your pets at various times throughout the day and evenings. I have a fence yard and two pets of my own at home. However, as I have a friend that rents a room in my home, I am able to housesit overnight and take care of pets in their own home so they don’t have to be displaced. I am also open to whatever schedule works for each family, for drop in care or walks.
About: I was raised around cats and dogs my entire childhood, and as an adult I now own 2 rabbits. My rabbits will always be closed away in a separate room with a locked door while boarding pets in my home. Although I don't currently own any cats or dogs, I have extensive experience with them and treat all animals as if they were my own. I accept exotic animals as well, just book them as cats and send me a message! I own a house in the Chalco area with a fenced in backyard and have boarded dogs many times here. I have an XL dog crate, leashes, and food and water bowls on hand. I currently work Mon-Fri 8-5pm. I am available weekdays after 5pm and anytime on weekends. I can do drop in visits on my 1pm lunch break or any time after 5pm. I treat your pets as I would treat my own. I am able to pick up dog waste, scoop cat litter, and provide medications as well as food and water.
About: Animals happiness is a fundamental principle that I feel strongly about. This made growing up with and caring for all animals my favorite part of each day! I would love to give your pet you call family a break from their long days of sleeping in. My experience includes living with and pet sitting for dogs of all ages and sizes. Before becoming a pet sitter, I had only owned a cat, but have experienced the joys of all cats personality’s. I’m currently a Junior in college at UNO and have a professional level of experience scheduling around my classes and previously a demanding sport. A part time, high activity, and flexible routine is my cup of tea! My most convenient times are early afternoons and whenever works best for you. I have well rounded experience in feeding pets, cleaning their toilet activities, and taking them on walks and runs. I currently call a black cat, jack Russell terroir, Weimaraner, blonde wiener dog and chickens my family!
“Absolutely wonderful! Highly recommend. Didn’t have once concern while on our trip. Marie was a pleasure, kept me updated and sent pictures everyday of our fur babies. Very very happy! Will use again!”
About: Having two cats myself, I understand the need and want for someone you deeply trust to take care of your animals and that’s the person I want to be for someone who might need it. I work early mornings at a coffee shop, normally get off at the latest 3pm, depending on the week! I am able to drop by or stay before and after work! I always have to give them love whenever I see them, and I make sure everyone has food and fresh water available. One of my cats is a free feeder and the other one get wet food twice a day so I am familiar with different feeding habits. Very experienced in giving cats medicine as I have taken care of both my cat and friends cats.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of our family! I am a certified foster for multiple local rescue organizations and have years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages and needs. I have extensive experience with kittens, puppies, bunnies, ducks, and reptiles; including bottle-feeding and hand-raising many little ones through the rescues we work with. For extra peace of mind, our personal veterinarian—the owner of a local animal hospital—lives right next door, so knowledgeable support is always close by if needed. My own Goldendoodle and I have also completed therapy dog training through Love on a Leash, which has strengthened my understanding of positive, gentle, and attentive animal care. Because I stay home full-time, your pet will receive plenty of supervision, companionship, exercise, and love throughout the day. When your pet is with me, they are treated like family and cared for as if they were my own. I am available 24/7 and on holidays. I am a stay at home mom so your fur babies will have around the clock care and love. I have a large fenced yard and a great neighborhood for leashed walks. We have a certified therapy dog who loves all other pets and a laid back cat who goes with the flow.

Absolutely amazing having Crystal check in on my two kitties! Crystal was very communicative, sent photos every visit, and kept my cats happy and healthy while I was away! I was very nervous leaving them alone for the first time, but having someonw as attentive to my pets as Crystal eased my anxiety a ton.
Jason is great! He dropped in to meet the new pup and spend time with our family. He’s punctual, he asks questions about how the new pup is getting along and how the pack is integrating, and he enjoys spending time with our fur babies. Thank you, Jason! We appreciate you being a part of our family and spending time with us.
Brandon established a great relationship with Peter, my diabetic cat. Brandon won him over at our Meet and Greet visit and appeared very comfortable giving Pete his insulin shot. Brandon visited 2x daily for his insulin shot, and provide can food in addition to making sure water and dry food was continuously available and litter box was clean. I do have a second cat in the home, Maggie but assured him that he probably would not see her on visits, as it takes a lengthy time for her to warm up to new people. I will be using Brandon in the future.
Ashley and her son Grayson were absolutely wonderful! They took care of my cat Binx for a week and did a fabulous job. Grayson played with Binx twice a day, which I know my mom appreciated Binx being worn out LOL...and Ashley went above and beyond by helping my mom with some stuff as well while here. I can't say enough good things about them. I would definitely use them again :-)
Megan is WONDERFUL with Hank. I can tell she really loves to see him and is very communicative and flexible with care! I’ve asked her to use certain equipment, give meds, and a few other things and she’s always done what I’ve asked. Terrific human and dog person! 10/10 would recommend and will be!
Elizabeth was a wonderful pet sitter. This was my first time using Rover, and she put me at ease with her excellent communication, and punctuality. She followed directions, sent updates and pictures, and my puppy loved her right away. I recommend Elizabeth, and plan to use her again in the near future. Excellent first impression!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Papillion is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $25 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 1,061 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Papillion. 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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Papillion. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
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.
