“Ashley was amazing! I had a sudden family emergency and she took such great care of my dog. She was very responsive, sent lots of cute pictures and updates, and was flexible when I had to extend my trip by a day. She also sent my pup home with a paw print with her name on it, which was super cute. I would definitely book with Ashley again!”
“Bandit was so happy and calm when I picked him up. It was very clear he was comfortable and well taken care of! She took him on several walks and sent many pictures. He was a HAPPY BOY!!”
“Amanda provided such a wonderful home away from home for our dog, Libby, that we were almost nervous she wouldn't want to come home! She was beyond amazing, both in taking care of the dog and us as we fretted over leaving Libby for such a long time. Amanda provided several updates a day along with pictures. We could not be happier with how she took care of our dog and will never look anywhere else for help. Libby made strong bonds that I'm certain are reciprocated so I know she'll be happy to go back when we need a dog sitter in the future. Amanda deserves 10 stars!!!! 🤩”

“Laura was fantastic with our 1-yr-old Havanese, Ramen. She was attentive to details, sent photo and text updates, and her house was the perfect haven for our furbaby.

It is obvious, through her detailed notes and excellent photos, that Sierra is loving and caring to all of our pets (the photos showed the joy on their faces!). Equally important, Sierra always maintained the highest level of professionalism when walking our dogs, making snap decisions related to weather and other pets along the walking path that were crucial to the safety and well being of our pets. This superior level of care is difficult to find. Thank you, Sierra, for allowing us to travel with peace of mind in knowing that our fur babies were safe and loved.”
About: I was a veterinary assistant for 6 years and I have lots of experience caring for dogs as well as cats. I have done pet sitting, dog walking, grooming . . . I am now a stay-at-home mom with two kids we live on a farm so we wake up early and go to bed late. That leaves us with lots of time to care for our animals. We love them and we give them the best care possible! I do have a fenced yard that is 2 acres so dogs have plenty of room to run but since I have cattle panel fencing, small dogs would be able to get through. Therefore I watch them closer and have runs outside also, we are not near any highways and live on a private road.

All my family and family friends have trusted me with their fur babies. I go to their homes or I take their dogs home with me depending on how they get along with my dogs. I have fed, played, and bathed dogs. I also love of them as if they are my own dogs. Not only do I care for dogs but I can care for all other four legged animals as well! Depending on the day if I work your pet will get 1 walk and plenty of outside time! If I am not working your dog will get 2 walks, hours of outside time and get as much enrichment to help their mental stemalation and energy! Starting in May on Saturdays I typically work at a race track until late, but I will go to your home prior to me going to the track. I have a fenced in yard and live in a nice Kearney neighborhood! We have several nature trails to walk on and a dog park in town! I do have two dogs but both are very friendly with other dogs and up to date on all vaccinations! There is also a vet office 5 minutes down the road that I take my animals to so if there ever is an emergency I will go straight there!

About: My first dog was a St. Bernard named Abner when I was two and I've loved and had dogs in my life ever since . I always end up being the one people ask to watch their fur babies or help with them ( baths, training, socializing with people). I've assisted in training and working with dogs that were considered to have behavioral issues. Utilizing guidance and the experience of military k-9 handlers in the past helped me develop a confidence in taking the lead with dogs that are considered to have behavioral issues . The love and protection I've felt for my own fur babies is something that can reassure you that no matter what you need for me to know about your pet ...I will hear you and adhere to it. I know that I've been considered particular when stressing the care expected of my own .You'll have the security of knowing that no matter how "small " , that every detail will be important. From their favorite toy to medications, to fears and dislikes. I'm very active and can give high drive pups the outlet they need . A more mellow or elderly dog will get equal attention with lots of snuggles. Reassurance will be plentiful for the pups or kitties that are nervous or struggle with separation. I'm experienced in caring for elderly pets and the gentleness and patience needed there. Personal losses and empathy developed caring for my own through senior years will allow you the trust that I genuinely know how precious they are . I've had experience with service and service dogs in training and understand how essential the consistency and handler's direction is when caring for them. NOBODY knows your pet better than you and it's upsetting when guidelines aren't followed by someone. It's not just annoying but can be nerve-wracking when a sitter doesn't seem to take things seriously. With me ,if you say your cat won't eat unless I shake the bag twice and meow .. I got you . If you say that your dog is an escape artist and securing the perimeter like I'm transferring a prisoner is needed...I got you . I have a genuine love for animals and tend to feel a connection with people who know how deep that bond is . No matter what the level of care needed , I'll work with you to create the best experience that your beloved furry family member can have in your absence. I work remotely and am able to be flexible in my availability. Odd hours , including late nights or early mornings are not an issue . Overnights/ extended care are possibilities too . The circumstances of in home care will vary depending on your preference and location. I'm available for in home care ( overnights / vacation stays) in your home. I bring my own bedding/ food and will be the only person in or around your home. I'm comfortable with reasonable camera surveillance, drug testing, background checks or anything else needed to offer you security that not only your pet is in trusted hands but your home is secure too.
About: I have been in the animal field since I was 16, completing a veterinary assistant program during high school. During Covid, I helped my aunt foster 3 rescue beagles as well as caring for her other two dogs. Since then, I have worked at multiple doggy daycare and boarding facilities and have pets of my own! I work 6am to 6pm every Tuesday-Friday so ideally, I’d need flexibility on drop-in visits for those days, but I have open availability on the weekends + Monday I am currently only providing drop-in visits which means your pet/s will stay in the comfort and safety of their own home. I always do meet n greets where the pet will be staying.

“We have used Catherine quite a few times...we really like the way she takes care of our boy...and I can tell he likes her too...we will definitely be using her again...”
“Ashley was amazing! I had a sudden family emergency and she took such great care of my dog. She was very responsive, sent lots of cute pictures and updates, and was flexible when I had to extend my trip by a day. She also sent my pup home with a paw print with her name on it, which was super cute. I would definitely book with Ashley again!”
“Bandit was so happy and calm when I picked him up. It was very clear he was comfortable and well taken care of! She took him on several walks and sent many pictures. He was a HAPPY BOY!!”
“Amanda provided such a wonderful home away from home for our dog, Libby, that we were almost nervous she wouldn't want to come home! She was beyond amazing, both in taking care of the dog and us as we fretted over leaving Libby for such a long time. Amanda provided several updates a day along with pictures. We could not be happier with how she took care of our dog and will never look anywhere else for help. Libby made strong bonds that I'm certain are reciprocated so I know she'll be happy to go back when we need a dog sitter in the future. Amanda deserves 10 stars!!!! 🤩”
“John and Rachel were great! We felt perfectly at ease during our trip knowing that Wrigley and Bodhi were loved and taken care of. I loved the update pictures that were sent to me during our time away. Highly recommend and I am sure Wrigley and Bodhi will be visiting again!”

They gave my high-energy pup lots of playtime, walks, and attention. They also sent lots of photos throughout his stay - I could tell he was having a great time!”
“Laura was fantastic with our 1-yr-old Havanese, Ramen. She was attentive to details, sent photo and text updates, and her house was the perfect haven for our furbaby. He looked so happy and was clearly well-cared for. Laura shows that she loves dogs, is attuned to the anxiety that dog parents can have with boarding your furbaby, and was responsive. We loved leaving Ramen in her care. Thanks, Laura!”

“We couldn’t have asked for better sitters for our first time leaving our pup. The care and attention given to our dog was absolutely amazing. It was so clear how much they genuinely loved him and treated him like their own. They even had a welcome sign with a menu and activities. It was adorable. We received thoughtful updates, pictures, and constant reassurance that he was happy and well cared for. Picking up a relaxed, content boy says everything. We are beyond grateful and would trust Kris & Eric again in a heartbeat. Highly, highly recommend! 🐾💕”
“Coney was fantastic and so easy to work with! This was our first time leaving our dog with a Rover sitter, and we were super nervous, but Coney made the experience stress-free. She was great at communicating, sent us daily photos, and made sure our pup was well cared for. We truly appreciated her updates and the peace of mind she provided. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

“Rebecca did a great job with my 1 year old labradoodle! She was very communicative, sent multiple pictures and videos each day, and I felt safe and comfortable having her watch my dog. Stella will definitely be back to stay with Rebecca and her family :)”
