“Justine & Justin did a wonderful job with shandy may! They sent plenty of photos to ease my mind while I was away! Shandy had a blast in the fenced in yard and with their dog Max!,”
“I highly recommend Amber! Amber and her husband Alex took excellent care of our 2 dogs! They both gave them a lot of attention and love. Amber texted me daily with photos and fun details that put a smile on my face allowing me to relax while on vacation. They only take care of one family at a time so that is nice! Our dogs were very comfortable there. Amber has a nice backyard too.”
“Bailey was amazing with Ayla! She spent two days with her and had such a great time—lots of playing outside and a calm, happy environment. I could tell Ayla felt comfortable and well cared for the whole time.”
“We couldn’t be happier with Alex and Sarah! They took such amazing care of Gigi and kept us updated with the sweetest photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear she was happy, loved, and in great hands. Gigi came home her usual joyful self, and we could tell she had a wonderful time. We will definitely be reaching out to Alex and Sarah again whenever we need a sitter, highly recommend them!”
“Jackie always does a fantastic job when watching my dog. There was some bad weather while she had Kiko and she let me know right away that they were all safe and that Kiko was in the basement with them. She sent updates and pictures throughout the weekend, and I always know Kiko is having fun and getting lots of love when he goes to Jackie's!”
“Teddy loves going to Dazhi’s! I always have total peace of mind knowing he’s so well cared for and showered with love. He comes home happy every time — which says it all. 🐾”
“Elvis loved his vacation while my partner and I were on ours! I felt he was very well cared for and the whole booking from beginning to end was flawless. Would recommend Sarah and Jason to any pet owner.”
“She helped me out so much when I was in a real pinch. I would have had to cancel my vacation without her help. I will definitely be taking my dog back. He seemed to have had the time of his life playing with her dogs. I would highly recommend leaving your dog in her very dog friendly hands.”
“Annur has been so wonderful these past few days with Bentley. She has kept me posted with pictures throughout the duration of his stay and has catered to his exercise needs and daily habits. Highly recommended and I will be rebooking in the future.”
“Anja was wonderful with our dog Nyla! Nyla got lots of exercise and loving care when she stayed with Anja. Nyla reportedly behaved well and got along great with Anja’s two dogs. I got pictures and sometimes videos of Nyla’s antics. Although we missed her while we were away, I knew Nyla was I. Good hands with Anja.”
“Doyle is the best. New to Omaha saw how many positive reviews he had. We did a Meet and greet super friendly you can he loves dogs. Took our girl to the park sent photos. Top notch”
“Kristen and her boys were awesome, we started with shorter notice but she was flexible and super accommodating. Charli loved her time and she made new friends with Conner and others which is always a win. We will definitely book with her again.❤️”
“Alexis did an amazing job watching my doggo for me over the weekend while I was out of town! She sent multiple updates daily which included pictures of my dog having a great time:) I never had any doubts as to his safety and wellbeing. If you need your dog boarded I cannot recommend Alexis enough!”
“Andrea was super communicative from the start and made us feel 100% comfortable leaving our pups! We got to meet up and make sure we were all comfortable, we got updates on the dogs throughout the week, and pick up afterwards was super easy! Extremely flexible and professional. We would feel very confident trusting Andrea with our dogs in the future!”
“Bryanne was amazing! She took very good care of my pup Apollo and he definitely seemed to have lots of fun! Very responsive and provided updates! We will definitely come back to her!”
“Melissa was very communicative during my dog’s stay and made sure he was treated just like he was at home. She sends pictures and regular updates. I booked over a holiday and she was very flexible and reliable. I would definitely recommend her to my other friends with small dogs! She’s great!”
“This family is the best. Hannah and Will were so accommodating and kind and attentive to not only our dog but to us as well. This was the first time we used Rover in about 3 years so I was pretty particular. Hannah and her family were a perfect fit for our 4 yr old pup. They have two other dogs who were so playful and welcomed mine rt into their pack. They also have two young daughters who knew exactly how to safely approach our dog for the first time and all times after that. They were excellent listeners to their parents and were thoroughly excited to welcome our dog into their home. And within a few hours …maybe minutes…our dog was snuggling rt up to them. Hannah was an excellent communicator and sent many photo updates! They even taught him to “stay” out of kitchen while they ate, as do their other 2 dogs. We have already booked her for July. Thank u Hannah and Will.”
“Our poodle had a wonderful stay and enjoyed playing with Cheryl's two dogs. Cheryl sent pics of the dogs and my family loved the updates. We hope to have our dog stay with Cheryl in the future! Thanks for a great weekend, Cheryl!”

About: I have experience caring for cats through both my work as a veterinary assistant and my personal experience with pets. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. Whether your cat is social and playful or shy and independent, I will provide care tailored to their needs. My veterinary background allows me to recognize changes in behavior or signs of illness and provide an extra level of attention and care. During visits, I can provide feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, medication administration if needed, and plenty of love and companionship. My goal is to ensure your cat stays happy, healthy, and stress-free in the comfort of their own home.
“Absolutely would recommend 100%!!! She is kind, friendly, reliable, and so sweet with our pets. Rebecca was available last minute for thanksgiving weekend and took such good care of our cats. She leaves incredibly detailed notes and takes beautiful photos of the cats. I would recommend Rebecca to anyone looking for someone to take amazing care of their pets!”
“Alyssa is the BEST! We’ve had her care for our cats on several occasions and she has been so great - easygoing, responds quickly, and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend her!”
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for my who life. I have trained my dog since he was a puppy, so I have plenty of experience with dog behavior. I have worked with young dogs, old dogs, anxious dogs, and outgoing dogs. I have a lot of free time this summer that I spend at home, so taking care of pets is my main focus throughout the week. At both my home and your home, I can take your dog for walks, play fetch, and let them relax. I can bathe and brush dogs, too. I have an energetic dog who loves new friends if your dog likes companions, and I can also keep our dogs separated if need be.
“This was the first time my partner and I left our cats longer than eight hours since we adopted them. I knew I wanted to make sure they had someone who could not only to feed them twice a day, but provide a presence for them. Jason took care of our cats while we were gone and when we arrived, it was like they hardly noticed we were gone. They were happy to see us, of course, but they were perfectly content and happy when we got home. Jason gave us constant updates and photos during our trip and honestly left our home better than he found it (we gave it an honest go of cleaning before leaving!). We will definitely try to book with Jason again should we take another trip.”

We added the newest member to our family last Christmas! His name is Sprite and he's a bully-pit mix, he's a hyper breed but he's 7months old and still in training. Currently no longer providing house services like doggy daycare,overnights, and house sitting, due to moving to blair 2 years ago and last year I didn't have the time to take on additional responsibilities and my main focus was the company I work for currently. I can and will manage a flexible schedule to provide other services such as dog walking and dropping visits because I can fit those services and provide them within my own schedule. I have a fenced in yard and a husband, 4 year old and our lovable,playful little Papillon; Maui to keep your loved one company and well cared for, just as at home😁 ;also crate your dog when/if need be and I adhere to the training your dog has had so whatever you do at your house we follow same rules over at mine.

About: While I haven’t officially cat sat before, I’ve spent plenty of time around cats and am very comfortable caring for them. I’ve always loved animals, and I’ve gotten to know and spend time with my neighborhood cat, which has helped me learn more about cat behavior, personalities, and how they communicate. I understand that cats often have their own routines and preferences, and I know the importance of being patient, gentle, and respectful of their space. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to following your cat’s care instructions closely, whether that includes feeding, refreshing water, cleaning the litter box, playtime, or simply providing companionship. I genuinely enjoy being around cats and would treat your pet with the same care and attention I would give my own.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Kennard
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
“I recently moved to the Omaha area from the other side of the state knowing virtually no one, and I can’t say how thankful I am to have selected Katie and Brandt from all of the options of pet sitters around me. We were so difficult at the beginning with some various needs/scheduling/etc and they were nothing short of warm and understanding. They are so welcoming and amazing to work with. My dog LOVES going to their home and basically forgets I exist when he’s there. I have a high energy breed and I can tell that they truly take the time to play with him and he is always just so so so happy when I pick him up. I can’t rave enough how much I truly enjoy Katie and Brandt and their care of my dog, I can tell they love him and care for him as if he’s their own.”
“Ann is such a Godsend to us! She took good care of our 2 baby girls 🐾🐾. They loved her and had a wonderful time. We feel so blessed to have found such a warm, kindhearted, and trustworthy person to look after our precious babies! 💖🙏🏻 Thank you so much, Ann! ☺️”
“Keeley was awesome! I needed daycare last minute and she responded instantly. Winnie came home ready to snooze and was so excited to go back the next day. Keeley kept me updated with cute pictures of her and Goose that made me laugh. I will definitely be using Keeley and Ethen again!”
“Alex and Sarah are friendly, thoughtful dog sitters and I appreciated that they want to have a meet and greet before watching Smudge for the first time. They were flexible and communicative. We’ll definitely ask for their services in the future!”
“Kati took GREAT care of Emma while we were away for a day. Emma was spayed a couple of days ago and needed extra special care/meds and Kati didn’t even second guess taking care of her! We will DEFINITELY book her again!”
About: Your pup must be respectful of cats please. I completely understand curiosity, just not stalking or chasing. I took so much care of our lab when she was 15 and had Cushings. I definitely have a sweet spot for senior pets. She has since crossed the 🌈. Max is our 5 yr old Husky/Lab mix and he's our sweet big boy. We have love for big and small dogs! We have a huge grassy 6 and 4 ft fenced in yard (we connected to our neighbors 4 ft fence - see pictures) and Max would seriously love a friend to play with or just chill with. My husband and I work from home so one of us will be home all the time. We usually go on a mid morning walk and an evening walk, weather permitting. My kids are 11 and 16 and adore animals. We have a cat, Freddy, who loves Max. We will love your pet like they were our own ♥️ My husband and I work from home full-time. Our dog has separation anxiety so one of us will be home when your pet is here! We have a 6 and 4 ft privacy fence, large grassy backyard. Max gets on the leather couch but not our fabric couch or bed. He doesn't ever try. We wake up early to feed Max at 7 so early mornings is a non issue in our house! We typically go on 2 short walks a day (15-20 min). We're a chill household.
“Alecia is so great with Tefiti. We know we can trust her to take care of her. Tefiti also loves her pup who is well socialized and well behaved. Great communication, consistency and care! We started booking with her at least once per week because Tefiti always comes home happy.”
“Jill is fantastic. My dog actually wagged her tail and ran up on the porch to the house. She seemed very happy when I got there to pick her up. She and the other dog being cared for were having great fun. Jill lets the dogs interact like they are one of the family. I’m so lucky to have found Jill.”
“Roger has been absolutely amazing with my dog. I bring him to his daycare multiple times each week, and it’s been such a great experience every time. He is reliable, attentive, and clearly cares about the dogs he watches. My dog always comes home happy and well taken care of, which gives me a lot of peace of mind. I highly recommend Rogers daycare to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring place for their dog.”

About: Hi! I’m a teacher with summers off, which means I have a flexible schedule, plenty of availability, and lots of patience for caring for pets. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m dependable, communicative, and calm — traits that help pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I understand how important it is to have peace of mind when trusting someone with your home and your pets, and I take that responsibility seriously.

She does well with both playful and relaxed pets, and I always make sure introductions are slow and supervised to ensure everyone is comfortable.

About: Hi there! My name's Kate, and I'm a dog lover through and through. I grew up with dogs and have 10+ years of experience dog sitting and walking (including overnight home stays and drop in visits). From play and enrichment activities, to going on walks, to being attentive and detail-oriented with meals, medicine, and wellbeing, I treat each dog I care for like my own with lots of affection and love. A bit of personal background: I am originally from Omaha and am trained as a professional opera singer. I received my Bachelor of Music from the University of Nebraska Lincoln, and my Master of Music from Indiana University Jacobs School of Music. ln caring for dogs, I have often done in-home stays for out-of-town folks. If your dog is vaccinated and gets along with other dogs, they are also welcome to stay at my home with my family and me, and our friendly black Labrador Dani (we have a fenced back yard). Regardless of what service you need, I would prefer to first do a meet and greet with you and your dog if possible. That way we can go over sitting information and any questions so I can provide the best care possible. I am comfortable caring for multiple dogs at once, though depending on how many dogs you have, that may affect my fee. I have experience administering medicine to dogs with treats or meals. I am happy to send frequent photo and text updates, to make sure you're always in the loop and have peace of mind. Please feel free to send any questions my way. Thank you so much and best wishes, Kate My availability is quite open the month of August, except for August 8-13 when I'm out of town. I can care for your dog any time of day. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly black lab. I can take your dog for a supervised puppy playdate in my backyard in addition to walks upon request.
About: Hello! I have been dog sitting for about 6 years now! I love dogs and want to make sure you and your dog feel cared for while you are away! I have taken care of big dogs, small dogs, crazy dogs, calm dogs, and even pets that aren’t dogs! I have also taken care of young and old pups as well! I love spending time with your bestfriend to give them the same love they get from you! I work part-time while in school and have plenty of time to hang out with your pup! I am available any day that you need me to be unless I have a prior commitment. I am willing to work around your schedule for whatever needs your dog has! I am willing to spend the night with your pup if necessary and if it fits with my schedule. I typically stop in to spend time with your dog a few times a day and am willing to stay the night if you need me to!
About: I've had and cared for pets my entire life. I've cared for dogs, cats, chickens, fish, ducks, snakes, a crab, hamsters, and rabbits, no partridge in a pear tree yet! I’m a graphic designer so I work from home. This mean I have very flexible availability to work from my clients home and give their pets a lot of extra love and care throughout the day. I also occasionally work on a farm but wouldn’t be away from my client’s pets for more than 4 hours. I am very thorough with my assessment and questions I ask when house/pet sitting at houses to make sure anything needed is available, or that I may be ready for any issue that may come up. I also LOVE to leave the house I'm sitting at better than I found it. My mother taught me at a young age how incredibly nice it is to return to a very clean house after a trip. It's a lovely gift I truly enjoy to give when I'm finished housesitting.
“First time using Rover and Kathryn made the experience very easy and absolutely worth it. Although my pupper can’t talk I have no doubts she would like to have Kathryn visit again. Thank you!”
About: ⚠️Please Note⚠️: I am working through lunch now- July 31st 2026. So I’ll mainly be able to watch cats as of now. If your pet is able to hold their potty from 8:00am-5:00pm then please still message me. Ihave my own little fury friend which I walk, take to the restroom, handle her food and water daily needs for the past 6 years. I have house/pet sat for over 18 owners, and sat more than 25 dogs, and 10 cats. I like to leave things as I found them, or better if I can. Also, great with cats, fish, and used to own 2 turtles as well and wouldn’t mind watching your turtles or any additional pets, just shoot me a message and see! I work from 8am-5pm, M-F, I have a few hobbies but other than that I’m sitting! If your pet is able to be let out every 5 hours then our schedules should align perfectly. PLEASE NOTE: If your pet needs to be let out before 6:00am I will not be able to provide services for you. I am currently only available to house/ dog sit at your location because I stay with my mom, and although we do have our own dog, that’s all she can handle at a time 🤗

“Elvis loved his vacation while my partner and I were on ours! I felt he was very well cared for and the whole booking from beginning to end was flawless. Would recommend Sarah and Jason to any pet owner.”
“She helped me out so much when I was in a real pinch. I would have had to cancel my vacation without her help. I will definitely be taking my dog back. He seemed to have had the time of his life playing with her dogs. I would highly recommend leaving your dog in her very dog friendly hands.”
“Annur has been so wonderful these past few days with Bentley. She has kept me posted with pictures throughout the duration of his stay and has catered to his exercise needs and daily habits. Highly recommended and I will be rebooking in the future.”
“Anja was wonderful with our dog Nyla! Nyla got lots of exercise and loving care when she stayed with Anja. Nyla reportedly behaved well and got along great with Anja’s two dogs. I got pictures and sometimes videos of Nyla’s antics. Although we missed her while we were away, I knew Nyla was I. Good hands with Anja.”
“Kristen and her boys were awesome, we started with shorter notice but she was flexible and super accommodating. Charli loved her time and she made new friends with Conner and others which is always a win. We will definitely book with her again.❤️”
“Alexis did an amazing job watching my doggo for me over the weekend while I was out of town! She sent multiple updates daily which included pictures of my dog having a great time:) I never had any doubts as to his safety and wellbeing. If you need your dog boarded I cannot recommend Alexis enough!”
“Andrea was super communicative from the start and made us feel 100% comfortable leaving our pups! We got to meet up and make sure we were all comfortable, we got updates on the dogs throughout the week, and pick up afterwards was super easy! Extremely flexible and professional. We would feel very confident trusting Andrea with our dogs in the future!”
“Bryanne was amazing! She took very good care of my pup Apollo and he definitely seemed to have lots of fun! Very responsive and provided updates! We will definitely come back to her!”
“This family is the best. Hannah and Will were so accommodating and kind and attentive to not only our dog but to us as well. This was the first time we used Rover in about 3 years so I was pretty particular. Hannah and her family were a perfect fit for our 4 yr old pup. They have two other dogs who were so playful and welcomed mine rt into their pack. They also have two young daughters who knew exactly how to safely approach our dog for the first time and all times after that. They were excellent listeners to their parents and were thoroughly excited to welcome our dog into their home. And within a few hours …maybe minutes…our dog was snuggling rt up to them. Hannah was an excellent communicator and sent many photo updates! They even taught him to “stay” out of kitchen while they ate, as do their other 2 dogs. We have already booked her for July. Thank u Hannah and Will.”
“Our poodle had a wonderful stay and enjoyed playing with Cheryl's two dogs. Cheryl sent pics of the dogs and my family loved the updates. We hope to have our dog stay with Cheryl in the future! Thanks for a great weekend, Cheryl!”
“Our family loved Roger and our dogs had such a great time at his home. He consistently kept us updated and sent lots of pictures which made us so happy that they were so well cared for. Highly recommended!”
“Natalie was amazing and my two dogs did great!! The communication was fantastic and received daily (or more) updates and pictures of the boys. I will definitely use her again! Highly recommended!!”
“This was my anxious boy’s second visit with Trish. The first visit was for daycare, and this was an overnight visit. Trish took great care of my boy! She sent me regular updates and pictures since we weren’t sure how he would do in a new environment. My boy looks happy and relaxed in all the pictures! He doesn’t do well in an overnight stay at the kennel, but he was clearly safe and happy here! We will definitely be repeat customers! Trish is the best!”
