“Shawn and Melissa are wonderful! Ella, our Yellow Labrador is almost 10 years old and handles a home environment so much better while we are away. They were so kind to send us pictures of her relaxing and looking very comfortable! We definitely will have them watch her again!”
“David and Shelly were the best! They made this experience so easy and we felt like our dog was in good hands! They sent pictures every day and even kept our dog for a while longer when it was totally unexpected! Hands down will use them again!”
About: We have been owners of a golden retriever for 6 years and are experienced with the needs of dogs. I have also watched friends dogs many times while they were out of town. I'm a homeschooled mom who will have a lot of time during the day to give your dog love and attention. My own dog spends lots of time outside enjoying fresh air and squirrels. I have a fenced yard and can take your pup on regular walks. My kids and I love animals and will be happy to cover scratches and cuddles while you're at work or out of town
“There’s no one we trust more than Stacy to care for our sweet Havanese, Mika, when we’re out of town. She loves each of her boarders like they are her own 🩷 We love that she only takes small dogs as Mika is intimidated by big dogs. Stacy’s home is set up perfectly for dogs, with gates, furniture they can set on, and a separate area if a dog needs a little space to themselves. Mika is 13 so sometimes she needs a little time to herself. Stacy has the perfect backyard for the dogs, with a large covered deck and a few steps down to a large open area (fenced) to potty and explore. Mika is always excited to see Stacy and her husband Todd! They are the best!”
“Sarah is absolutely wonderful. She and her family invited my pup into their home and treated him like he was one of their own. She kept me up to date on how he was doing, sent lots of pictures, spoiled him with treats, and allowed him to get comfortable in her home. I’ll absolutely have Sarah watch my pup again when I need a sitter.”
“Archie loved his stay with Jaimie and family! The frequent updates and pictures made it easy for us to enjoy our time away and not worry about him. Their stories at pick up assured us he was well loved and had great care ❤️”
“Jamie and Daniel were very nice and accommodating. We'll prepared with note cards of the dogs info and apple air tags for the dogs. Sent daily pics of the dogs. Would definitely use them again.”
“We loved having Amy watch our pup, Harper! We have an especially timid dog who usually doesn't like strangers, but seemed to really do well under Amy's care. Harper was nice and tired when we picked her up from playing with all the other dogs! We were very pleased with her stay and would definitely use her again.”
“Lori was great! I was a little nervous as I had never boarded or left Andre with a stranger but she kept me updated daily. She was very accommodating and responded quickly to any and all messages and questions. I would highly recommend! Thanks Lori!”
“Nathan is fantastic! He sent pictures and videos throughout and my pup seemed to have a blast! He went to a dog bar, played with neighborhood kids and even helped with yard work.”
“My dog Juno is new to us and so nervous about being left. Infinity took extra time to help her eat when she was anxious and to let her play with other pups to help ease her mind. Thanks so much!”
“Sidney & Shelby are amazing!! They loved on our dog and treated her like royalty! River loved being there and felt like she was at home! We cannot recommend them enough!! Thank you ladies!! You two are incredible!!!!❤️❤️🐶”
“Aspen was great! This was our first time taking our dog there and we will definitely be going back. We received lots of pictures throughout the weekend and she even took him to the dog park to burn some energy. Overall this was a great experience.”
“Our dog *loved* staying with Alex, Lindsey & their family! She was always so excited to go back to stay with them and was tired the whole next day after a stay from all the fun she had!!”
About: I’ve lived my whole life with at least one pet in the house and shared responsibility in caring for him or her. I took in my own pupper, Benji, in the summer of 2020 as a 4-month-old puppy and trained him myself. My husband and I also have a precious cat named Princess who rules the roost :) We love our fur family, and I/we can’t wait to love on yours! I work a regular 8-5 job that has some flexibility in the morning and afternoon (I can come in later and leave earlier if I need to). I’m free most evenings and weekends. I can take care of pets in my apartment for a short period, but they have to be ok with cats and dogs. I have a cat tree and a litter box, and I take my small dog on a walk 3x a day. I would do the same or more for my clients. I also expect my clients to line out any needs and rules for me in their homes and/or for their pets so I can take care of them as desired.
About: Finding pet care can be an anxiety inducing experience. My job is to provide pet parents with total comfort and peace of mind knowing that their fur babies are being well taken care of while they are away. Hey there! My name is Kayla and I am a 30 year old childless cat (and dog) lady. I have spent my entire life around animals and wouldn't have it any other way. We always had dogs while growing up, which eventually grew into also having cats, mice, lizards, etc. I turned this personal love of animals into a profession by spending many years working in pet boarding/daycare facilities, pet shelters, and by pet sitting on the side. I have been around so many different kinds of pet personalities and temperaments and strive to approach each animal appropriately to keep everyone safe and comfortable. I have also had much experience with special needs and senior pets. A big part of my job is it keep owners updated on any concerns I have or to ask important questions, so you never miss a beat of what is going on with your furry companion while you are gone. I pride myself in having a ton of heart and genuine care for any animal I come into contact with, and promise to treat your fur baby as my own - belly rubs and treats included! I currently work full time, 9-5 M-F. I will have plenty of time in the late afternoon/evening to care for your pets, as well as open availability Saturday and Sunday I will care for your fur baby just like he or she is my own! I'm good at following instructions of care and sticking to the routine they are used to. Plenty of belly rubs and walks included!

“Emily was amazing! She communicated daily, sent pictures of Frankie and Charlie, and took wonderful care of them while I was away. She fed them, cleaned the litter box, and gave Charlie his medication with no issues. She is kind, friendly, and trustworthy, and because of her I was able to truly relax and enjoy my vacation. I will absolutely use her again and highly recommend her!”
“Ella stayed in my home with my very skittish cat Odin, who usually takes a while to get use to people. While I was on vacation I got pictures of Odin snuggled up with Ella’s arm. It’s always hard to leave your pets in someone’s else’s hands, but I could see how comfortable Odin was with her and it made being away a bit easier. Ella also took wonderful care of my home, it looks exactly the same as I left it.”
“I am so grateful to Andrea & Edwin for the amazing care they provided to my kitties. The photo updates allow me able to travel without the nagging thought of "our my cats okay?!".”
“Kirstin did a great job checking in on our extra shy kitty! Consistent communication and provided nice photo updates during each check-in. I appreciated her notes after each visit and our "meet and greet" before the first visit.”
About: I’ve had two cats of my own over the years, and they’ve always held a special place in my heart. I’ve also cat-sat for family and friends, and one thing I’ve learned is that no two cats are ever quite the same. I’ve cared for everything from social little shadows who want to be involved in everything, to independent cats who prefer to keep to themselves. I understand that cats have their own personalities, routines, and boundaries, and I always let them warm up to me at their own pace. Whether your cat is playful, shy, affectionate, or a little bit of a diva, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. Getting to know each cat’s unique quirks is honestly one of my favorite parts of caring for them. 🐱✨
“Abbey was very punctual and communicative. She made us feel like our cat was in great hands while we were gone. She sent multiple pictures a day and was very kind and respectful to our home.”
About: Cats are my favorite kind of company! Whether they’re shy or social, I’ll make sure your fur baby gets the love and care they deserve. I love earning their trust, giving pets and treats, and making sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away! 💕
“Tiffany is a cat lover and is also extremely knowledgeable in caring for cats with medical issues. She alerted me to an issue with my cat while I was away and helped me to resolve the situation quickly. This helped my cat, but also gave me peace of mind. She is amazing and I will hire her again in a second.”
“Rachael is amazing! Always on time and communicates while we are away. We get pictures every visit and an update on each pet. 100% confidence that they are well taken care of when we are out of town. She is the best!!!”
About: I’ve owned cats my whole life, I currently have two of my own. I started Pet Sitting with Cats, they are some of my favorite clients. Specifically, I have experience with managing multiple cats, taking care of specialized feedings, litter boxes, play times, medication’s, etc. I’ve taken care of kittens to senior cats, indoor and outdoor as well. my two current cats right now are on specialized diets and care so whatever you throw on my way, I am ready to take on for you and make sure your kitty gets the best care they can get.
“Marikita was truly amazing! I need a cat sitter at the very last minute and was extremely nervous about the prospect. However she made the whole process so easy and stressful through consistent communication! I can NOT recommend her enough! I will definitely be reaching out in the future when I need someone to watch my cat, Cecil again!”
About: I have had cats my whole life and absolutely love them! I could not see my life without cats! In addition to owning and caring for my own cats, I also volunteered at The Cat House for four years, so I have ample experience caring for a diverse range of cats with their unique care routines. I have had experience administering medication, in addition to the typical feeding and litter scooping. I would love to meet your kitty!
About: I live in a wonderful, quiet neighborhood that allows us to go on long, quiet walks. In addition, to walks we can play outside in our fenced yard, playing catch or fetching the ball or just lying in the sun enjoying ourselves. If you dog is older and just likes to have a relaxing day on the couch we can do that too. What ever you prefer your dog to do, I can give them. Their preferred schedules will be maintained for them and make sure that your dog gets extra love while you are gone. I am able to host any size dog for you and trust me they will feel as if they are a part of the family as well. Can't wait to meet you and your dog.
About: I’ve mostly cared for bigger dogs with a lot of energy. I regularly look after my friend’s pets as well as my family’s. I have a dog of my own, she’s very active and friendly. I’ve had her for over a year and learned so much about dogs from being a pet parent. I got to school part-time but I still have quite a bit of time throughout the day for check-ins. The weekends are best for boarding. I like to do dog walking throughout the week. I spend most of my time at home so I don’t mind hosting at my home but I’ll also do care at a client’s home. I do not have a fenced in back yard but I live in an area with a lot of parks and open spaces. I do spend a lot of time outside so I’m comfortable with going out for multiple walks a day. I don’t provide treats of my own unless the owner asks me too or if they tell me what they’re okay with their pet eating. I don’t give pets food I’m eating because I don’t want them to choke or they could get sick.

“Tuffy looks happy and well cared for, which really stood out to me. David seems very comfortable and confident handling dogs. It’s clear he actually spends quality time with the dogs rather than just keeping them around, and that makes a big difference. We are grateful.”
“Mollie loves to go to Shawn & Melissa’s house! She runs to the door when we arrive! Mollie loved playing with Shawn & Melissa’s new sweet doggie Willow today! We are so blessed & thankful to have Shawn, Melissa & their twin girls as our dog sitters! We are so grateful to have people who we can trust with our precious dog! And it’s so easy to leave her knowing she absolutely loves her time at their house!”

I work from home, so I am available at all times. I will spend time with your pup, and my own dog is very loving. I have a fenced backyard and we have a huge neighborhood area exclusively to us homeowners the size of a football field. Also there are to parks within 5 minutes.

“Simply a wonderfull amazing women. She truly loved my dog as she would her own. If it wasnt cause shes already been pre booked. I would have kept her as my primary sitter moving forward. But even disregarding that she will always be someone I'll keep an eye out for. She is reliable people to care for a pet”
“Andrea and Ed and their 3 fur babies welcomed Moose into their home and took such good care of him! Thank you so much, hope Moose can visit again soon!”
“We really appreciated that Jadyn was able to take care of our Roxie last minute. We love that he is really fast in responding back and adaptive to our schedule (which is super helpful). On top of that he is really polite and respectful and Roxie loved him since the moment she saw him :)))”
About: My wife and I both grew up with multiple dogs in our families. My wife grew up on a farm with mostly outside cattle dogs and I grew up in the city with mostly inside dogs. When we got married we got a dog of our own. She was our baby until we had kids of our own. She was then the best big sister to our daughters the rest of her life. We have owned 2 boxers in the time that we have been married and truly loved our time with them. We have realized as our 3 girls have gotten older and super involved in activities, we no longer have time for a dog of our own. That is what has brought us to Rover. We would love the opportunity to care for other people dogs in a way that works with our crazy schedule. My wife and I are both teachers and coaches. During the school year we are very busy teaching, coaching, and running our 3 daughters to activities. During the summer our schedule slows way down. We are usually home during the the week and at the lake on the weekend. All/most of my family would be available for pet care Monday-Friday during the summer. We would be available to have dogs in our home or to drive to your home. We would not be able to do any overnights in your home, but would welcome dogs to stay over night in our home. We live in a split level house, so there is no way to avoid stairs. We have a big fenced in backyard with a play set, trampoline, and above ground pool. We live in a quite neighborhood on a side street. We have lots of houses around us with dogs and lots of dogs in the neighborhood. My wife takes long walks daily and would love to have a canine companion. My 3 girls love animals and will spoil all dogs with love and attention.
About: I am an experienced Veterinary Technician that has worked in the industry for 10 years. I had my own pet sitting and dog walking business in Texas for 6 years before moving to the great state of Nebraska. If selected to take care of your fur babies, I will provide detailed accounts of the interaction that I will have with your pets. I am able to give medications and provide basic medical care. You will be alerted when I notice any sign of illness. You will also be notified when they are being cute. My goal is to provide the best care possible while you are away. I will play with them, love them, and treat them as if they were my own. Taking care of animals is my calling and my passion. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your fur babies. I am a stay at home mom and have a flexible schedule to work with your ongoing pet sitting needs. Just let me know what you need! When I am a pet sitter I treat your animals as if they are my own. I pay attention to the details that your pet communicates. I typically can detect early illness and recommend proper intervention to keep your pet healthy. If they are at my house, they are in a fenced backyard and monitored while my dogs play with your dog. I provide plenty of water to prevent dehydration and a nap break to make sure they rest. Be prepared! Your pup will be tired when they return home.
“Bella’s first Rover sitter and she was happy in the pictures and video sent and when I picked her up. Thank you Nathan for making it a great experience for her with her favorite things like a car ride and a pup cup!!”
“Staci was wonderful! Sent me pics and updates, was very accommodating and flexible with me. Well priced for a fabulous experience. I was nervous since my dog can be a jerk around others, and she has 2 small dogs, but she had a plan for all scenarios. And the dogs for along fine. Definitely would recommend her.”
About: We recently said goodbye to our German Shepherd, who we had the joy of taking care of for the last 13 years. We are comfortable with all ages and sizes of dogs. My husband and I both primarily work from home, so someone is almost always around to care for your dog and keep him/her company. We can accommodate most schedules. We have 4 kids ready to give your dog a lot of love and attention. We are gentle with animals, and we will follow precisely whatever instructions you give us.
“Can’t say enough about how pleased we were with how much Jamie is a wonderful dog caregiver. We have a very active Springer Spaniel that is still in puppy mode and in new surroundings is very much on the move checking out everything. Jamie & Dans home is setup perfectly for pets with all types of personalities. She even took the time to introduce our dog to cats. We’ve been looking for a River home that makes our dog comfortable and accommodating to a dog with separation anxiety and a need for attention plus the ability to mix with other pets and people. Can’t wait for the next time for our dog to have another visit.”
About: I have cared for dogs large and small, including walks, play time and overnight stays. I also have experience with dogs who don't bond with other dogs in the home, as well knowing how to manage and and be sensitive to dogs with anxiety. I work from home with some flexibility to my schedule, and have the ability to care for some pets in my home. I am also able to house sit on occasion. I live in an apartment with a loft, which gives pets plenty of room. There is a dog friendly area outside where I am able to take dogs on a leash for walks, etc. There is also a dog park in my neighborhood.
“Meaghan did a great job watching our pup Cali for an afternoon/evening while we attended an event! We will 100% be contacting her again the next time we are in Lincoln and need pet care 😊”
“Infinity was wonderful to work with! It was clear immediately that she cared for my pup and made sure she was comfortable in her home. She provided regular updates and photos and even gave my pup a bath after play time ended in the mud 🤦🏻♀️ I am so thankful our first pet sitting experience with this dog was with Infinity!”

“I have been using Andrea and Edwin for awhile now and they are so wonderful to work with. I usually request them when I have to have my boyfriend’s dog with me for extended days, but they are still sending me pictures of my cat who wasn’t part of the request. They are efficient in communication and flexible in timing and if something comes up. Highly recommend them for your pet needs!”
About: I have taken care of many family and friends dogs. I treat them like they’re mine own. I go out of my way to make them feel happy. I’m retired so my days and evenings are open to care for your pets. My hours are very flexible. Time with your pet will be the best part of my day. I love to walk, so your dog will get as much walking in as he or she wants. Their schedule will be my schedule. There are lots of dogs in my neighborhood, so your fur baby will meet new friends.

Always make sure the dog feels comfortable and safe in all situations. I treat all animals with love, care, gentleness, and patience. Health and safety of animals is my priority.
About: I love animals and am committed to giving them enriching lives. While your pet is in my care, you can expect them to play a variety of brain-engaging games, eat out of puzzle feeders, and receive undivided love and affection! I work a very flexible job that allows me to fit in walks and drop-in visits whenever needed. There are no times that are too early or too late for my schedule! I will follow any procedures and protocols you have put in place for your pet. Your pet's routine is important to me and them!

About: Lifelong animal lover who treats every pet like my own! Whether it’s playtime, walks, or cuddles, your furry best friend’s in good hands. I’ve cared for pets of all kinds and love giving them a safe, happy space because they deserve the best! 💕🐕 I just recently graduated so I have a completely open availability for walks, check ins, or to just keep your pets some company while you’re away! I’m currently available mon-thurs at any time! For Fridays-Sundays I’m available anytime before 4pm, as I usually have work after 5 on weekends, I’m looking forward to filling my free time keeping company to your animals!

I make sure doors are locked, routines are followed, and your furry friend stays safe, happy, and comfortable at all times.
About: I’ve been Pet Sitting officially for seven years, I’ve owned cats and dogs my whole life, I love animals I even major in it for college. During college, I started to take on more clients during the summer and I would manage 20+ clients during a summer. I have experience in taking care of small animals like aquariums and fish, two large animals like horses and goats. I have experience managing medications, special needs, multiple pets, special diets, etc. whatever you throw my way I will be up for :) I do work as a manager at a golf course, But my schedule varies and I have large gaps in my day where I will be able to take care of your pet. I am not opposed to getting up early to make sure I get a visit in before a shift, or coming there immediately after work to spend some time with your Pet. I always wanna make sure I spend as much time with a pet as possible and make sure they’re getting their needs all met. I am more than willing to take care of pets at their home, that is their space. I will always make sure I visit multiple times in a day, or if you are up for it, stay overnight with pets. I always make sure all the doors are secure before I leave, everything is clean and put in the place, I always check to make sure there’s no accidents or issues with the pets and their area depending if they kennel or not. I don’t like to leave unless pets have eaten and have had plenty of time to go outside, take a walk, play.
“Nate was superb! My pug, Moss, took to him right away, and Nate knew all the ways to pet him and become friends. Moss was soon running to the door when he knew Nate had come! I couldn't have been happier with any other dog walker!”
About: dogs are very important to me as i have been around them my entire life. i currently work at a dog kennel and as much as i enjoy cleaning up after and taking care of those dogs, i would love to have the opportunity to take care of more dogs outside of the kennel environment. my own dog is so very special to me. when i take him back to visit my parents, we have a total of four dogs running around! the smallest is around 10lbs and the biggest is around 85lbs, needless to say it’s crazy and fun! i currently work part time so i am very flexible with my schedule. i am happy to accommodate as much as i can to fit whatever needs you may have. i live in an apartment so as of now, i am not able to dog sit at my home. however, i am more than happy to commute to your residence to treat your dog as if they were my own. dogs have unique personalities and i am capable of accommodating special requests to make sure your dog is as comfortable and safe with me as possible.
About: I have worked with all types of pets throughout my entire life! I have worked with everything from cats and dogs, to snakes and parakeets! I am home for the summer and have a part time job that I will do my absolute best to work around! Let me know what times and days work best for you, and I will do what I can to adjust accordingly! My #1 goal is to ensure that the pet is happy and healthy when I am in it's care! I understand that new people can be frightening or scary to a companion animal. My job is to take my time to get to know these pets and make their time with me enjoyable and comfortable!
About: I’ve cared for my own dogs, cats, rabbits, and chickens. I’ve helped others with their animals. I am almost always able to do a last minute job if needed! I can check on pets in the morning, midday, and/or afternoon. Whether it is to feed, let out, take on a walk or anything else. I can take care of anything needed specifically for your pet if it’s taking for a walk, feeding, changing the litter, or any other specifications.
About: Most people babysit growing up, I was the local petsitter instead. Now I’m the go-to petsitter for my friends and colleagues, looking to help others! I have experience petsitting both cats and dogs! My main summer job is research, so the hours I’m available are very flexible. I make my own schedule so I can make myself available for most times! I’ve cared for lots of pets of varying age and need ranges, so I am equipped to do whatever is needed for pets to thrive while their owners are away. I am used to taking dogs on long walks or snuggling under a blanket, and I have two very particular cats of my own so I know how to get kitties eating, playing, and comfortable!

“Shawn and Melissa are wonderful! Ella, our Yellow Labrador is almost 10 years old and handles a home environment so much better while we are away. They were so kind to send us pictures of her relaxing and looking very comfortable! We definitely will have them watch her again!”
“David and Shelly were the best! They made this experience so easy and we felt like our dog was in good hands! They sent pictures every day and even kept our dog for a while longer when it was totally unexpected! Hands down will use them again!”
About: We have been owners of a golden retriever for 6 years and are experienced with the needs of dogs. I have also watched friends dogs many times while they were out of town. I'm a homeschooled mom who will have a lot of time during the day to give your dog love and attention. My own dog spends lots of time outside enjoying fresh air and squirrels. I have a fenced yard and can take your pup on regular walks. My kids and I love animals and will be happy to cover scratches and cuddles while you're at work or out of town
“Sarah is absolutely wonderful. She and her family invited my pup into their home and treated him like he was one of their own. She kept me up to date on how he was doing, sent lots of pictures, spoiled him with treats, and allowed him to get comfortable in her home. I’ll absolutely have Sarah watch my pup again when I need a sitter.”
“Archie loved his stay with Jaimie and family! The frequent updates and pictures made it easy for us to enjoy our time away and not worry about him. Their stories at pick up assured us he was well loved and had great care ❤️”
“Jamie and Daniel were very nice and accommodating. We'll prepared with note cards of the dogs info and apple air tags for the dogs. Sent daily pics of the dogs. Would definitely use them again.”
“Lori was great! I was a little nervous as I had never boarded or left Andre with a stranger but she kept me updated daily. She was very accommodating and responded quickly to any and all messages and questions. I would highly recommend! Thanks Lori!”
“Nathan is fantastic! He sent pictures and videos throughout and my pup seemed to have a blast! He went to a dog bar, played with neighborhood kids and even helped with yard work.”
“My dog Juno is new to us and so nervous about being left. Infinity took extra time to help her eat when she was anxious and to let her play with other pups to help ease her mind. Thanks so much!”
“Aspen was great! This was our first time taking our dog there and we will definitely be going back. We received lots of pictures throughout the weekend and she even took him to the dog park to burn some energy. Overall this was a great experience.”
“Our dog *loved* staying with Alex, Lindsey & their family! She was always so excited to go back to stay with them and was tired the whole next day after a stay from all the fun she had!!”
About: I’ve lived my whole life with at least one pet in the house and shared responsibility in caring for him or her. I took in my own pupper, Benji, in the summer of 2020 as a 4-month-old puppy and trained him myself. My husband and I also have a precious cat named Princess who rules the roost :) We love our fur family, and I/we can’t wait to love on yours! I work a regular 8-5 job that has some flexibility in the morning and afternoon (I can come in later and leave earlier if I need to). I’m free most evenings and weekends. I can take care of pets in my apartment for a short period, but they have to be ok with cats and dogs. I have a cat tree and a litter box, and I take my small dog on a walk 3x a day. I would do the same or more for my clients. I also expect my clients to line out any needs and rules for me in their homes and/or for their pets so I can take care of them as desired.
“Derek knows what he’s talking about when it comes to taking care of dogs. He was happy to watch our young puppy and continue working on the important skills she needs to learn while she was in his care. Would definitely use him again!”
“Marie was so great and sweet with Kenzo! She sent us updates of our boy with pictures and videos and we really appreciated that. Kenzo is not really affectionate, so it was a great to see the connection that our boy had with Marie. We will definitely rebook with her in the future!”
“Ryleigh was great. She's a genuine animal lover. She boarded my kitty for a week and everything went smoothly. She sent photo updates, which was greatly appreciated since I was pretty nervous about sending my cat off to be boarded for the first time. I will definitely reach out and have her board my cat again if the situation arises. Thanks Ryleigh!”
“I was out of town and had an emergency with my little dog Zoey, Staci not only helped me out lsst minute, but picked Zoey up for me and took wonderful care of her for a week until U came back into town. Staci sent me pictures and updates, reassuring me Zoey was ok and well taken care of. I wouldnt hesistate to book with Staci again, she was a lifesaver and a FANTASTIC caregiver to my sensitive, elderly dog. I cant thank her enough!”
