“I cannot rave enough about Benji's stay with Doyle. He truly went ABOVE above and beyond to make the process as convenient for us as possible. To start, he was super accommodating and responsive to my last minute request for the coming weekend. Then, to avoid a complicated early morning drop off, he came and picked up Benji the night before - totally free of charge. He was in regular contact throughout the weekend, sending pictures of Benji's adventures. We arrived home very late on Sunday, and again to make things easier on us, Doyle drove Benji back over as soon as we were home. I almost went with a slightly cheaper sitter for the weekend, but I am SO thankful I listened to the stellar reviews Doyle already had and decided to prioritize quality. I promise you, it is worth it!!!!”
“Jill and her sweet family were amazing with our pup! They keep him active and engaged daily and keep me informed with pictures and updates throughout our trip. I highly recommend Jill!!!”
“We reached out to them at the last minute to watch our mini goldendoodle and they responded back quickly and were able to board him that night. They did a great job, and keep us updated on how our dog was doing with pictures and texts. They did an excellent job.”
“I had previously only had amazing experience, in light of recent experiences they will be the only sitters I trust to care for my pup. They went above and beyond for me on limited notice due to a family medical emergency. They provided myself and my family with such relief during a traumatic experience and I can never fully thank them.”
“Allyson, Zach, and family were fantastic dog sitters for our Millie. Allyson was prompt to all messages before, during, and after the overnight stay. We received lots of updates and pictures throughout Millie's stay with Allyson. We recommend Allyson to anybody needing a dog sitter in the Omaha area. We will definitely be using her in the future.”
“Autumn was great with our black Lab for a long weekend away. She sent updates with pics and videos. I felt like she spoiled our dog with lots of love and attention! Easy drop off and pick up. She definitely cares for your pet like they were her own.”
About: Hi, I’m Alexis! I’m a lifelong dog lover and pet owner with experience caring for senior and special-needs dogs. I most recently adopted my dog, Simon! He is a gentle giant with a wobble to his walk. He has Cerebellar Hypoplasia, but that doesn’t stop him at all! Simon loves his dog friends of all sizes and would love to join me in helping take care your fur babies! I’ve cared for dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities, including Chihuahuas, Labs, Huskies, Cane Corsos, Shibas, and King Shepherds—no dog is too big or too small! I’m also comfortable with special care needs. My previous dog Milo had epilepsy, so I have experience administering medication and providing attentive care for dogs who need a little extra support. More recently, I adopted a senior Shiba who passed away at 15 after battling non-regenerative anemia, which gave me hands-on experience with the patience, comfort, and extra attention senior dogs require. I don’t have a fenced-in yard, but I live near a park with lots of walking paths and green space. I’m happy to provide plenty of leashed walks and outdoor time, and there’s also a dog park nearby for friendly pups who enjoy it! I also frequently visit the Omaha Dog Bar and would be happy to bring your registered pup along for an outing if they’re comfortable and enjoy socializing. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own, with patience, love, attention, and plenty of belly rubs! 🐾❤️ I work fully remote, so your pup will have plenty of company and attention throughout the day! Our mornings start around 7 AM (or earlier if they’re the ones waking me up), with a potty break and some morning time together before I start work. While I’m working, they’re welcome to lounge on the couch or bed nearby. We’ll take breaks throughout the day for attention, potty breaks, and a little playtime. After work around 4 PM, we’ll head out for a longer walk or, if they enjoy it, a trip to the dog park. I’ll then head to the gym for about two hours, after which I’ll be home for dinner, another walk, cuddles, and relaxing together! Overall, your pup can expect a comfortable routine, lots of companionship, regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of love throughout the day! I treat every animal as if they were my own and take the time to understand their routine, personality, comfort level, and any special needs before they stay with me. Because I work fully remote, I’m home throughout the day and able to provide frequent supervision, potty breaks, attention, and companionship. I don’t have a fenced-in yard, so outdoor time is always supervised and on-leash unless we’re in a secure, designated area. I live near a park with plenty of walking paths and green space, which makes it easy to give pups safe, regular exercise. I’m experienced with senior and special-needs dogs, including administering medication and providing extra patience and care when needed. I’m also comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments and will always follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and routines.
“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.”
“Wallie came home tired from his long weekend stay with Amanda and her dogs! I originally picked her because she was close to where I live but I would choose her again even if I lived further. Was provided plenty of photos and am confident that my dog was happy and healthy in her care.”
“Jennifer and her family boarded my cat Stoke for 3 nights. They made sure he had a comfortable space. The children knew how to gently approach and pet cats. Everyone seemed genuinely happy to welcome another pet into their home temporarily rather than just make a buck. It was easy to communicate with Jennifer and I think Stoke had a good experience. I highly recommend.”
About: Im very patient when it comes to teaching. I love nurturing animals and helping them become healthier. I can teach potty training and no leash pulling! Im currently working for delivery services so Im very convenient for any hours! I usually get up around 8:00 am and take my dog out. Then feed him an hour later and then again around 5. He also gets little healthy snacks in between such as fruit or plain greek yogurt! I have a gated backyard and a buddy to keep your friend company :). I also make sure everyone is playing safely and fair. I have an attic room to myself plenty of space.
“Kristen was friendly and accommodating for a week stay for Reggie. She sent photos and kept us informed on how Reggie was doing, including how he was during fireworks. He was clearly well loved while we were gone. Will be rebooking with Kristen again!”
“Emily was amazing!!! I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with her for a long weekend. She sent me multiple pictures and updates daily and was so flexible and accommodating. I can’t speak highly enough of our experience, I will definitely be asking her to watch my pup again soon!”
“We are so thankful we found Kathy to watch our beagle,Kona. She is absolutely the best! We felt comfortable from the very first time we met Kathy during our Meet and Greet. She watched Kona for two days when we went out of town. Kathy kept us updated and sent pictures. Communication was awesome! She loves dogs and treats them like one of her own. Kona loved going for walks and playing with her dog Charleigh. We already have dates set for Kathy to watch Kona during our upcoming trips. She is truly amazing!”
“If Teddy could type, he’d be writing this himself. He told me all about how spoiled he was while I was away—daily walks, meals served on-time, and even playdates with their sweet golden retriever (apparently his new best friend). I also loved getting the daily photo updates, though Teddy insists they didn’t capture his best angles. He came home happy, tired, and maybe just a little disappointed to leave. I couldn’t have asked for better care for my pup—Teddy says 5 paws out of 5! 🐾”
“We’re so grateful Michelle watched Luna while we were out of town! She was very flexible and accommodating with our pickup! Thank you for the updates and for caring of our sweet and shy girl! We would use her again! :)”
“Emily and Jim were absolutely fantastic. Extremely communicative and treated our dog very well. We are hopeful that they can care for Ramsey again in the future!”
“Plenty of pictures sent to me and it appeared he was having a blast in every single one of them. He was having so much fun that I almost felt bad for going to pick him up.”

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 Underwood home-away-from-home, 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 Underwood.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 Underwood 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 , 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 .
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 IA 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.
