“Crystal is absolutely amazing. Highly recommend! My pups both loved her instantly and her communication is off the charts! Will use her again no doubt! This was my first Rover experience and I’m sold all because of Crystal! Thank you so much for keeping an eye on my babies!!!”
“Linda the pet sitter did a fantastic job! She took the time to really get to know each of our three dogs—their unique personalities and quirks. It was clear they felt comfortable and well-cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
“This was our first time using Rover, but thankfully Jennifer was fantastic! The dogs were well taken care of and it was so reassuring while we were away. Prior to the upcoming scheduled booking, she came by to meet myself and the dogs, listen to any instructions and see what the normal routine was. She gave us her personal number in the event we needed anything or had trouble contacting us through Rover. She also encouraged us to have good communication regarding any needs/cancelations if needed which added to her personable reassurance that we’d be in good hands and she wanted us to have the best experience. I cannot recommend her enough and will look forward to booking her again for any needs - and honestly will be sad if she’s unavailable and I have to select someone else.”
About: My experience caring for dogs has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and understanding each pet’s unique needs. As a rescue dog mom, I have a special place in my heart for shy, anxious, senior, and special-needs dogs. I understand that building trust takes time, and I always use a gentle, positive, non-violent approach. I’m comfortable following specific routines, administering care as instructed, and giving pets the extra reassurance they need to feel safe. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, comfortable, and cared for just like they would at home. 🐾 I work Sundays through Wednesdays, with long shifts on Sundays, so I’m unavailable that day. Monday through Wednesday, I’m happy to care for pets as long as they’re comfortable being home alone while I’m at work. My home is dog-proofed, and I’m comfortable with dogs who are not kennel-trained or who have free roam of the house. I want every dog to feel safe and comfortable in an environment that suits their needs! My home has a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor time and a walking trail right out back for walks and good sniffs! I have one shy but friendly small pup who loves people and typically lets other dogs make the first move. She is very gentle and respectful of other dogs’ space, making her a great companion for dogs who enjoy having a calm canine friend around. I want every dog in my home to feel safe, comfortable, and free to settle in at their own pace.
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 have experience in training and animals handling. I have been called an animal whisperer. I am open to all pets even aggressive ones. I have experience in exotic pets as well. I am in college and I take care of animals in between my classes. This will not take away from my time spent with your animals and I will be fully focused on your pet while I am there. I have a large amount of experience with animal behavior. I can confidently and comfortably care for all types of animals regardless of temperament or aggression level. Your pet will always be safe with me.
About: I have been pet sitting for friends and family since I was in jr high school. I currently have 1 dog 3 fish, and 2 humans I keep alive! I'm patient, I have lots of energy but also like to chill if that's what your pup would prefer! I've recently made some major lifestyle changes to make myself more flexible and accessible for my family! This gives me the chance to be available about anytime of day. I would love to meet you and your pets! At this point my calendar is fairly open, I am flexible and willing to work with moving and changing schedules. Most of my day involves school pick up and off and being a taxi to evening dance classes, which is easily done with or around the schedule of an extra furry friend or 2. We have 1 Brittany. She she has full use of all upstairs furniture, a fully enclosed backyard and probably too many snacks! They are happy to welcome new friends to sit on their sofas!
“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!”
“Heidi has been a great help with daily drop in visits for our pups. She is great at communicating how each visit went and super flexible with times day by day! We appreciate her help so much!”
About: I grew up with many pets around me and have come to enjoy the company of those companions. Although, I cant own my own pet baby at the moment, I am more excited to give that love to the ones I watch! I have an open schedule on days that aren’t Tuesdays and Thursdays but I am willing to work around those times and provide the best care needed for your pet. I don’t have any pets in my home at the moment but I will make sure to show extreme care towards your pets from the beginning to the end of service.
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: I earned a certificate in veterinary assisting in 2015. Most recently I have five and a half years of previous vet clinic experience working as a veterinary receptionist and helping out as an assistant from time to time. I have a 12 year old Siberian Husky named Kona who is a total sweetheart. I also have a spunky 5 year old Siamese mix named Coconut. I have cared for all types of breeds and have experience in helping potty train puppies as well as senior dog care. My schedule is currently very flexible! I have plenty of time to take care of your pets and give them the time and attention they deserve. I am currently only booking out about two to three weeks at a time as my schedule may change but please feel free to reach out if you have any questions! I am available for drop in visits and walking. I follow directions clearly and will always put the pets needs, safety and well-being first. I will treat your home with respect.
“Lisa is a godsend! I have a cat with diabetes that requires shots twice a day which makes it difficult to leave town without having someone to administer the shots. My cat took to her right away and I was able to enjoy a weekend out of town knowing he was being taken care of!”
“Deborah was great! When she first came to meet my dogs she got right down on the floor with them! I loved that! She had great communication and even sent pictures. I have birds and Deborah didn’t even hesitate to say she would take care of them too! She was amazing. I would definitely recommend her and use her again in the future!!!”
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. When boarding dogs in my home, I always go home on lunch to give them a potty break. They are never alone for more than 5 hours at a time. 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 needed.
“Kadasia took wonderful care of the one cat who didn’t stay hidden and also had successful searches to find the one who wouldn’t come out. We really appreciated her interactions with both cats. A very successful visit.”
“Ella took really good care of our cats while we were on vacation. The cats immediately took to her which was comforting! She did great leaving the space clean for the cats and easy to come home to after a long time away. Thank you Ella”
About: I have taken care of many animals from a young age, my love for animals and dogs has always been a big thing for me. I previously worked at a ranch and dog boarding facility where I worked with all breeds and many many animals at once. I’ve always watched family/friends dogs while they are out of town. I would love to spend some time with your animals as well🥰 I am available at just about anytime with a short heads up, I am currently taking time to look for a new job so I will have pleanty of time to look after and tend to your pups! I can be with your dogs, let them out, walk and play with them, to their and your preferred schedule! I have 2 dogs at home and one is a little timid around other dogs so being able to stay at the clients home does work better for me.

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 $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $28 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 November 2026, there are 1,068 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Papillion. On Rover:
- 88% 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 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.
