2. Isabella F.
“Isabella is fantastic! She wrote great daily updates and sent lots of photos of my 2 cats. It was great that she has had cats and understood how shy they can be and it was nice to see how they warmed up to her over my abscense! I would highly recommend her!”
3. Eric Y.
“Eric did a great job with our dog, Baxter! He was on time, sent us photos and was easy to communicate with. This was our first time using Rover and Eric made it easy! Will definitely be using Eric again! Thank you!!”
4. Hilary F.
“Hilary was communicative by sending a message when she was going to be about 15 min late to a drop in which is no big deal because we didn't need exact times, but I appreciate her letting me know, regardless. She was also flexible when I needed to push our first drop in time back a few hours because we left later than we thought. Our dog and cat were well taken care of despite the fact that our animals were a bit gruffy about having a stranger drop in. The only thing I would change is I wish we got more pictures, but that is something I could have communicated more before we left, so it's no big deal. I also appreciated her doing a meet and greet beforehand and she was very sweet with our pup during that time. Thanks so much for watching them - especially with all the snow we got!”
5. Chelsea G.

It is so nice to know you can leave your pet with someone who treats them as their own. Overall we had an extremely positive experience and will definitely use Sandra again and again.”

13. Erika C.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life. I have taken care of friends and family’s pets before. Big dogs like boxers, high energy dogs like poodles, and sassy dogs like frenchies lol. I also have lots of experience cat sitting kittens, senior cats, and a three legged cat as well. I also have experience administering medication to pets! I’m currently a grad student in Lincoln and have a flexible schedule around school work. I already love to take walks on my own so walking with your pet would be nothing new to my routine! I am very respectful in other people’s homes, can follow direction or specific requests. I would build trust with your pet well enough for them to know they are safe and taken care of. I can clean out litter boxes, administer medication or vitamins, and give plenty of enrichment!
14. Kelley M.
“Highly recommend Kelley as a pet caregiver! She has had dogs and cats as pets and currently has one dog! She is responsible, caring and loves animals and I know she will take care of your pets like they are her own!”
15. Alyssa P.

16. Ashley V.
“Ashley is lovely! She is punctual, respectful, friendly, & absolutely loves our pup! She has done everything we’ve asked of her and is very helpful. Highly recommend her 😊”
17. Ashley & Kyle B.
“Ashley and Kyle are great with my two dogs. One of my dogs is a bit difficult and they have made her warm up and feel comfortable with them. They are very reliable and I feel very comfortable having them take care of my dogs. They communicate very well, I’m happy I found them! I would definitely recommend them!”
18. Deanna P.
“Deanna as a wonderful pet sitter! We have a unique situation with our two cats and a 42-year-old turtle, and she handles everything with care and attention. Our cats, Ozzie and Louis, don’t get along, so they live in separate parts of the house, divided by a 7' tall pet gate. Ozzie is usually wary of strangers, but Deanna always takes the time to make her feel comfortable, even setting out treats for her to discover. Louis, on the other hand, really misses us when we're gone, and Deanna goes above and beyond to give him the snuggles and playtime he craves. She also administers his liquid medication with no issues, which gives us great peace of mind. As for our turtle, who I've had for 30 years, Deanna is wonderful with him as well. Although his care is pretty straightforward, she doesn’t just feed him—she also plays his favorite tracking game, which shows how much she truly cares. Overall, Deanna provides exceptional care for all our pets, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter.”
19. Austin & Carolyn W.
“Austin's pets have been dogs and cats his whole life and he really enjoys trips to the dog park! He is consistently punctual and reliable.”
20. Avery K.
“Avery is the sweetest kindest pet lover that I know. She was the only one in our house that could get our dog to do the fun tricks, and would let her hold her like a baby. Animals and small children are just drawn to her, and love her. Avery is kind, trustworthy, and reliable!!”
