About: We’re a dog-loving family with 20+ years of hands-on experience caring for our own pets and others. My husband has had dogs his entire life, and our home is full of genuine love for animals. We have experience caring for senior dogs, including administering medication and accommodating mobility issues with patience and care. Our home setup allows us to safely separate dogs when needed, ensuring every pet feels comfortable and secure. For safety and routine, we do ask that dogs are crate trained for overnight stays. Most pets enjoy relaxing on our main floor or in our finished basement, where they’re treated like part of the family. I work from home, so I’m around throughout the day to provide consistent care and attention. Dogs are let out regularly every 4 hours, depending on their needs, and I make time for walks and outdoor breaks whenever the weather allows. My flexible schedule helps ensure your pet stays comfortable, active, and well cared We prioritize routine, consistency, and attention in our daily care. Dogs can be fed on your schedule, within reason, and are given frequent opportunities for outdoor time and exercise. Weather permitting, we incorporate playtime outside, and in the evenings, pets receive plenty of interaction, affection, and engagement.
“Our dog had a wonderful time with Danielle and her family over the Christmas holiday! She made him feel right at home ☺️ We would be happy to have him stay there again in the future!!”
“Kay and Hutch were amazing! Our dog was truly home away from home in their care! They went above and beyond taking care of our dog, here are just a few things they did: lots of pictures, videos and text updates, numerous walks, plenty of toys, and they have a few puzzle boards that they hid treats in! Wonderful people, and a wonderful stay for our pet! We would 100% have them watch our dog again! Our dog had so much fun she has been missing them! Thank you again!”
“Kofi has watched my dog Ubu twice now. I was pleased both times. He was easy to communicate with in discussing my dog, as he had reactive issues towards other dogs. He got along fine with him. I will use him again and would recommend you check him out.”
“I can’t thank Kayle enough for taking such good care of my boy!! She sent pics from his stay - it was soo great to see him so comfortable and relaxed! It sure makes being away so much easier knowing he was so loved and well cared for while we were gone! We finally found our ‘home’ away from home for our sweet Bob!! 💕💕”
“Andrea did a wonderful job watching our dog Feyre. She was kind, communicative, and was intentional about making sure Feyre was given the best care! Our pups got along well, and we loved the daily updates she gave us. We will definitely book her again whenever we need someone to watch our girl!”
“Remi always has a great time with Scott and Ashtyn and comes home nice and worn out - this time was no different! We always appreciate knowing she’s safe and being cared for while we’re gone. Thank you!”
About: I've had dogs for almost 30 years. I understand their temperament, needs, and can recognize when they're in need. I've bred dogs, so I've cared for them from pregnancy, to infancy, to end of life. I've had dogs since I was a child, so they are always factored into my daily routine. I live 10 minutes from base and I set my own hours, so I can come home to take care for them as frequently as needed. My dogs have access to food and water 24/7. I own my home and have a fenced in back yard. I'm military with a clearance, so my trustworthiness is undeniable. I live a stable life, so clients don't have to worry about their pet while they're at my home.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
