About: I have had cats and dogs as a child. I have had my own cat kids for 22+ years! All of them were adopted. We had 4 cats for a while. They all had such different personalities which makes it fun! I have also done drop in visits to take care of dogs, rabbits and guinea pigs! I work full-time so I am available on weekends. I am available during the week- early mornings or late afternoons or evenings to come over and take care of your pet. I offer services in a client's home (not my own) . I am very happy to come to your home to feed, water and play with your pet!

“I rarely give 5 star reviews, but Lora was so amazing! She said our dogs were the first ones she did visits with, but our dogs seemed happy in every picture she sent us. She visited as discussed, took time to give them scritches and love on them. I was really impressed and so long as we live in Lincoln we will be reaching out to Lora for our fur babies.”

“Tiffany took excellent care of my cats while I was away. She kept me updated with photos after every visit and gave my cats extra attention and pets that helped me feel confident they were in good hands. I came home to calm and happy cats. I’d absolutely book again.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs & cats since I was in high school. House sitting and pet sitting is one of my favorite ways to make money. I love animals, I also enjoy going for a walk so having a dog with me makes me feel more relaxed & comfortable. Cats I just enjoy being around and seeing the crazy little behavior. Overall animals mean so much too me & I would be so grateful to be able to take care of your babies ❤️ I am currently a college student at the University of Nebraska Lincoln. I have Fridays off so I’ll be able to spend a lot of the day with the animals. Monday through Thursday I have classes however I only have two classes on Monday and Wednesday and three classes on Thursday so I’ll be able to check on the animals throughout the day and also be there at night with them. when I decide to housesit or animal sit for a client. The first thing I asked them to do is to write everything down that I need to do on a day-to-day basis on a piece of paper and leave it on the kitchen table so I make sure I’m doing everything I can for the animals. I can take the animals on walks if that’s what they enjoy if the animals tend to be more elderly, I can just spend time with them make sure they’re getting their meds whatever you guys have a preference of me doing I can do it to the best of my ability.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats in my life starting from the age of 10. I’ve always helped when it came to feeding, walking, and any potty pick ups. I’ve taken care of dogs for both family and friends. Currently only available afternoons on Tuesdays and Thursdays, as well as afternoons and evenings on weekends due to school and a regular job throughout the week. I like to make sure that I know all entrances and exits and if there’s any loose doors/handles, that way I know where to keep an eye out around the house of clients, so no one gets hurt or out without supervision.

“So great with my phantom!!”

About: I grew up in diverse household of both cats and dogs. Although I am a proud cat mom of 6 year old and 1 year old. I love dogs too! I know it can be nerve wracking to leave your beloved pet with a stranger. Since I am at place where I can’t have any more pets I move all of my extra love into yours! I am currently working full time Monday thru Friday. I also work 9-5:30. I am looking to earn some extra money throughout the week. Something before and after my shift. I currently live in an apartment but my place is spacious enough to have multiple scratching posts, litter boxes, water fountains, and cat toys. They don’t even pay rent and they have more stuff than I do 😂.

About: Hi, I'm McGivney! My passion for animal care started all the way back in the 5th grade when I landed my first pet-sitting job letting out a neighbor's dog. Throughout my childhood, I continued looking after pets for my neighbors, building a reputation for being reliable, attentive, and caring. ​Today, I work as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). In my professional life, I love developing deep, trusting relationships with people, and I bring that exact same dedication, patience, and meticulous attention to detail when caring for animals. Because of my medical background, I am incredibly comfortable following strict care schedules, following complex routines, and administering oral medications precisely. ​I truly love all creatures! Beyond dogs and cats, I have experience handling and caring for a wide variety of animals, including fish, bearded dragons, geckos, frogs, and snakes. Whether your pet has fur, scales, or fins, I am super comfortable meeting their unique needs and ensuring they feel safe, loved, and properly looked after. ​I live in a comfortable, clean 700 sq. ft. apartment and strictly host only one cat or dog client family at a time to guarantee your pet gets my undivided attention and a stress-free environment. I can't wait to meet your animals and provide you with absolute peace of mind while you are away! Because I work in healthcare, my daily schedule varies, which actually makes me highly adaptable! No matter what my day looks like, your pet's established routine is my top priority. A typical day of care includes structured feeding times, plenty of fresh water, regular bathroom breaks, and dedicated one-on-one attention. I love staying active, so if I am walking or drop-sitting a dog, we will go on fun neighborhood walks and have plenty of playtime. If I am sitting a cat or a reptile, I focus on spending quality, calm time with them, respecting their space, and keeping their environment clean and secure. Pet parents can expect absolute reliability, clear communication, and total peace of mind. I know how stressful it can be to leave your family member with someone new, so I send daily photo updates and quick text check-ins after every visit or walk. My home is a clean, calm, and smoke-free environment. Safety and trust are the absolute core of my pet-sitting philosophy. Coming from a CNA background, I am professionally trained to notice subtle changes in behavior, monitor well-being, and maintain a highly organized, clean environment. When pets are in my 700-square-foot apartment, they enjoy a calm and securely enclosed space. To ensure maximum safety and a stress-free environment, I enforce a strict policy of only hosting one dog or cat family at a time—your pet will never be forced to share space with another strange cat or dog. Out on walks, your dog's safety is my top priority. I always keep dogs securely attached to standard, heavy-duty leashes (I never use unpredictable retractable leashes) and maintain complete awareness of our surroundings to avoid any tense interactions with off-leash neighborhood dogs. For small animals, reptiles, and cats, I ensure all enclosures are double-checked and entry doors are tightly secured before anyone is let out for supervised stretching or play. I treat your pets with the same high level of protective care and responsibility I use every day in my healthcare career.

“Alyssa was super easy to communicate with, thoughtful, and did a great job stopping in on Sonic! Will definitely use her services again :)”
