“Brayden did such a great job with my two dogs! They can be very high energy at times but they were so calm and good with him. He sent me pictures and updates throughout the entire overnight visit. I will definitely be booking with him again!”
“Frankie was in great hands! We needed a last-minute sitter for a 3-day stay at our house, and she was wonderful. She kept us updated while we were away, which gave us a lot of peace of mind, and it was clear Frankie was well cared for and comfortable. We came home to a happy dog, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with 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.”
“She was amazing with our boys! So caring and attentive, kept us updated throughout the weekend, and treated them like her own. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in great hands. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve owned dogs and cats my whole life and have frequently cared for friends pets while they were away. I used to volunteer for the humane society and have had various trainings for proper pet handling. I work full time but love to get in early morning or late evening walks. Our schedule is pretty flexible so I can talk with you to find something that works best. I have a large fenced in yard and one friendly dog to play with. We can accommodate kennels as needed. Dogs are allowed everywhere in our home, but we have pet gates in place to separate by areas of the home if needed. When your dog stays with me they become a member of our family. My schedule is currently flexible, which gives me plenty of availability for walks and drop-in visits throughout the day. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine, whether they need an early morning walk, a midday potty break, dinner-time visit, or evening check-in. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions closely and respect both your pet’s routine and your space. I’m careful with doors, gates, leashes, and known escape artists, and I take time to make sure pets feel comfortable with me rather than rushing interactions. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
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.
“Sierra was INCREDIBLE with our two boy cats while we are away. She was very responsive, very considerate, and we could tell the cats felt very safe with her. She is the best!”
About: I’ve enjoyed and cared for dogs of all sizes since I was old enough to walk, grew up with German Shepherds, Pit-bulls and a Pomeranian full of energy. I’m currently working remotely and have the flexibility to care for your pet anytime. I manage my schedule two weeks in advance making it a lot easier for everyone. For now I can only offer dog walking services, home-sitting, and day visits. My goal is to not disrupt their routine and help them stay calm while they enjoy some light activity.
“Rebecca did a great job taking care of our 2 dogs while we were on vacation! She sent pictures multiple times a day, played with them, and took really good care of them. We would definitely rebook with her!”
“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!”
“Wonderful job on overnight stay! We received pictures and updates and the house was left in perfect shape. We are very thankful to have a reliable dog watcher and will continue to use ❤️”
“Danny was on time and responsive throughout our Saturday night pup sitting. Zucc was tired out from having so much fun all night. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking Danny again! Thanks!!”
“Brooke was great! We felt very comfortable having her stay at our home and care for our pets while we were out of town. We have a large dog that recently had knee surgery and required additional attention. Brooke did a great job with our pets and kept us to date on things the entire week. This was the first time we used a pet sitter instead of resorting to our local kennel, and we couldn't be happier about the results. Brooke is tentative, responsible and a great communicator. We will definitely work with Brooke in the future.”
“Juan was great. Good communication on cats and house. Pictures and videos really cheered us up. Kittens seemed to really like him. Did some extra tasks like water plants, feed the birds...even mowed lawn when got too long. Will definitely use him again. A+++”
About: I’ve taken care of my pets and family and friends pets for the last 10 years. Everything from walking to feeding and bathing them. I have also been trusted to dog sit at their house for 5+ days before. I have had dogs and cats my entire life and couldn’t imagine my life without them. I have also had to deal with finding a trusting caregiver while gone and I will be that trusting and loving caregiver for you! I currently have an extremely open schedule. On days I do work I would be unavailable for no more than 5-6 hours during the day. When taking care of the pets in other homes I always make sure they are not left alone for extended periods of time and make time in my day to go hang out with them. I will keep them active and play with them but also give them plenty of loves!
About: I have always had dogs. I have trained dogs for years, including hunting dogs. I have helped others with their animals throughout the years as well. I also take care of a farm and their animals from time to time just north of Omaha she would be a reference. I work remotely, so I’m home all the time unless I need to run a quick errand. There is direct access into my apartment, so no need to go through hallways. I will treat them like they’re my own and we walked every day. I have a park here. I also live right next to Lake Zirinsky so taking a walk at the park is easy.
“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.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 627 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Plattsmouth. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Plattsmouth 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 Plattsmouth 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Plattsmouth 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.
