“We have used Emily and her lovely family to care for our senior dog on 2 different occasions and we will not hesitate to reach out again if needed. They have been so flexible and kind both times. I appreciate the great and timely communication. It can be a little nerve wracking leaving an older dog (with some issues) but Emily made us feel very comfortable! 10/10 recommend!”

About: Animals have always been an important part of my life, and I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and comfort level. We always had a dog while o was growing up and as an adult I have always owned a dog (or two). I feel a house it’s a home without a dog! I currently own a Goldendoodle. I have experience with daily walks, feeding schedules, administration of medication, playtime, and of course snuggles. I work until 5:30 p.m. most days of the week but, I am available evenings, and weekends to care for your pet whatever the need may be. In my full-time career as a registered nurse, attention to detail, reliability, and compassion are part of who I am. I naturally pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, or other signs that something may not be right, and I communicate promptly with pet owners. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply keeping their normal routine while you’re away, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I care for every pet as if they were my own and understand how important peace of mind is when you’re trusting someone with a member of your family.

“We had such a wonderful experience with Jordan and Jon. We are so thankful we found them to watch our dog, Koda! ❤️ From the moment we dropped him off, we could tell he was going to be in great hands. They sent us so many updates and pictures, and it was clear how much love and attention he was getting. Koda came home happy and clearly had a great time! They were incredibly kind, attentive, accommodating, and made the whole experience so easy and stress-free for us. We will definitely be reaching out to them again whenever we’re in town. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and highly recommend to anyone!!”

About: With hands-on experience working at Kenl Inn in Lincoln, NE, I’ve gained valuable experience caring for dogs and providing them with the attention, patience, exercise, and love they deserve. I understand that every pet has their own personality and needs, and I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I am available throughout the week and weekends to care for your furry family! I will prioritize your pets needs and comfort while you are away.

I also keep their environment clean, safe, and comfortable so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’m Natalie, and I’m a huge animal lover who would love the opportunity to care for your pets! I’m responsible, patient, and treat every animal like they’re my own. I also have my own Goldendoodle, Willow, who absolutely loves making new furry friends! She is very playful, gentle, and friendly and would be so excited to have a buddy to hang out with. Because Willow would be around during stays, I do ask that your dog is comfortable and friendly with other dogs. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, give them lots of love and attention, and send pictures and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing they’re in good hands! 🐾🤍 I work as a CNA, but I have a flexible schedule because I’m able to sign up for shorter shifts that work around my availability. I’m very intentional about making sure I have plenty of time to care for pets, which allows me to come home and let dogs out for potty breaks, take them on walks, give them lots of attention, and spend time hanging out with them. I want to make sure every pet gets the care, exercise, and companionship they need while their owners are away. 🐾 When your pet is staying with me, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved just like they’re at home. I’ll keep them on their normal routine as much as possible, including meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. Since I have a flexible work schedule, I’m able to make time throughout the day to let them outside and give them attention rather than leaving them alone for long periods. My Goldendoodle, Willow, is also very friendly and loves having other dogs around, so your pup will have a fun little friend to keep them company! 🐾🤍

“Amazing! Gretchen took such great care of Copper and he looked so happy and healthy when we got back. Gretchen sent pictures and updates everyday. Her house and yard are perfect for boarding dogs; Copper came home and slept almost the entire next day from playing all week with Gretchen and Bella. We will definitely be going to Gretchen for our future boarding needs and would recommend her to anybody!”

About: We’re excited to watch your sweet pups! We promise to take pics, give them lots of love, and take care of them as if they were our own. I’ll stop home for lunch to take care of your dog! We’ll give them a walk in the morning and at lunch and time to relax in the evening. No fenced yard so we’ll keep your dog on a leash and take them for walks around the neighborhood. They are free to snuggle up anywhere they like.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Prairie Home home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

  • Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Prairie Home.

Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

You and your Prairie Home sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

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.

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in NE ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
