“This was our first time using Rover. Our regular dog sitter pulled out at the last minute due to necessary travel, and we felt a little anxious about leaving Emmie with people we'd didn't know. As it turned out, we couldn't have been happier! Rita and Brian were the perfect pet parents for Emmie. Their house is spotless, they have a nice back garden, set up for dogs to feel right at home. We were gone for 16 days--a long time--but every day we received many photos of Emmie along with a summary of the day's activities. She got tons of attention and cuddles with daily walks and playtime. We will definitely be booking again!”
“Kelsey and her family took care of my dog for 3 weeks and I don’t think I could have found a more loving and perfect family to care for my dog. I got daily photo updates and after seeing the way they treated my dog like a part of the family I had ZERO worries. Best dog sitter in the Omaha area!”
“Our pup loved staying with Emily! They were very flexible with our pick up time since we were coming back from a volleyball tourney and weren't exactly sure what time we would arrive. I would highly recommend.”
“So glad that I found Angela! Leonard, my dachshund, had a ball. We are working to socialize him, and Angela provided him with opportunities to walk and play with a friend. Leonard has separation anxiety, and I am just starting to leave him with sitters. Angela is great. On pickup, I think Leonard was hoping that I was there to stay and join the fun!”
“Kirsten and Nicolas were great! They sent pics during the whole stay and were very communicative. They also have a fenced in back yard that they let the dogs run around in. They updated us when the pups appetites were low, which I really appreciated. Both of our dogs tend to be anxious without us because they aren’t used to used to being alone, so it was also a big plus that they work from home. In the past we have had to send our pups to kennels because we don’t have friends or family near by who can watch them. They would be locked in a kennel all day and we would literally have to pay extra for belly rubs or time out of the kennel. I usually feel uneasy the whole trip but not this time. I could tell they were well taken care of and treated like one of their own. Thank you so much Kirsten and Nicolas!”
“From the time we dropped off our pup, we shown that she would be in great care. Gary and Heather provided consistent updates and photos as promised. We were told that our pup would be “cared for like one of our own” and our experience proved that. They took our pup to the dog park and the dog beach. As a high energy pup, we could tell she was thoroughly engaged judging by how tired she was when she returned home. We would highly recommend Gary and Heather to give you a peace of mind and your pup a loving home away from home.”
“We found a treasure when we asked Kelly and Ben to help watch our dog while we were out of town! They love that she wanted to meet our Daisy before we made the final arrangements. That gave us such peace of mind. Our pup walked into their beautiful home, and she instantly felt comfortable. Their home is warm and gave us a feeling that our dog would be so well loved while we had to be out of town. Kelly also showed how much she cared and how knowledgeable she is by asking all the right questions and loving on Daisy like she was already a part of their family. Communication was terrific too! We received pictures throughout the weekend of Daisy on walks and being her sweet and silly self with Kelly’s family too! We are so happy with the experience that we already scheduled another time out of town - knowing that our Daisy girl will be totally spoiled and cared for while we are gone. Thank you to Kelly and her family for loving our dog like we do!❤️”
“Loni did great with my boy! He is always a nervous wreck when I leave.... Loni did great in making sure to give him some space and give a comfortable environment. She had great communication throughout the day as well. Even sent a few pics, which was nice! Highly recommended!”
“Lauren and her family took Doug in as if he was their own. I recieved updates and plenty of pictures of Doug playing with their puppy Cinder, who is an absolute sweetheart. There is absolutely no doubt that I will be booking with Lauren and her family again.”
“Katelyn and Nicholas were both welcoming and a great host for our 11 month old golden retriever. We were provided frequent updates/pictures which was comforting because this was our first trip without our dog. We will return if we ever need their services again!”
“Very professional and easy to coordinate with. Her dogs are very sweet and my dogs were well taken care of. Very nice fenced backyard to run around and play. Would definitely recommend!”
“I'm so glad we found Sally! She took great care of our pit bull Henry. She made accommodations for him, sent us daily updates, sent pictures every day, and even some videos. I could tell Henry was enjoying himself, I was afraid he wouldn't want to come home! She truly cares for him!”
“John and Shannon were wonderful with our dog Oslo. You can tell this family really loves dogs. We got sweet updates throughout our trip. Oslo was happy to see us at the end but we think he would have been happy to stay with his new family - ha! I was particularly struck by their flexibility and resourcefulness when our flight was canceled coming home from our trip. They were gracious, flexible and communicative.”
“She and her daughter took great care of our pup. He loved them and seems to have had a great time on vacation from his parents. They took him on lots of walks, played with his favorite toys and gave him lots of love. Thank you so much for being a wonderful sitter to Prince.”
“Tina was amazing with my dog! She took such good care of her and also helped me with some good tips on things I wanted to train her on. I would definitely recommend Tina for taking care of your fur baby.”
“Rachel was the best sitter for our doggo and we felt totally at ease knowing it was being well looked after while we were away. Daily updates and photos/videos were a real treat and made our trip totally stress free!!!”
“Shorey had a great time staying with Nicole! She was able to play outside a lot with Nicole’s pup and was tuckered out when she got home, which was great! Great communication the entire time.”
“I could not rave high enough about Ashley! She accepted a last minute booking for my golden retriever for 3 nights without hesitation! I got so many picture updates and could tell Murphy had an absolute blast. Will be booking with her again!”
“Jasmine was amazing with my dog Kobe! She kept me up to date sending pics and informing me of his stay which made me felt relieved he was in great care. I totally plan on boarding my pup with her and her family again on future trips!”
“Kris was the perfect pick for leaving my buddy Smith with. He was loved on, well taken care of, and got lots of play time with her dog Baloo!! He came back to me in great condition and clearly happy with his “vacation”. Updates were frequent and adorable, and having Smith treated like a member of the family was such a big relief when I was initially a bit nervous about leaving him with a stranger for so long. Kris will 100% be our go-to for future boarding needs.”

“Melissa did a wonderful job with our cat while we were away on vacation last week! Our cat is usually very shy around new people, however she bonded very quickly with Melissa! I looked forward to the daily pics she would send me & the updates! It was really nice having the peace of mind that she was well looked after while we were away. Melissa was very reliable each day & went above & beyond!”
“Carrie took care of our two cats while we were on holiday and she truly went above and beyond. Not only did she always send pictures and an update on our loved ones, she even vacuumed the floors and took a spoiled rug home to be washed! Truly a perfect pet sitter :)”
About: My whole life there was an animal in my household. So ever since I was 5 years old I would help out. It started off as just feeding the dogs but as I got older I gained more and more experience. Taking the dogs on a walk, letting them outside, simple grooming, administering medicine, etc. Dogs and animals alike have a special place in my heart. They truly are man’s best friend. Even if it isn’t my personal animal it is my goal to give your furry friend the same care and affection that they deserve. I’m currently a college student in my sophomore year. I miss my dogs now that I’m not home, so I truly do give other people dogs as if they are my own. My schedule is mostly open in the evenings and I’m more than willing to work things out, even outside of hours that are listed in my profile. I would want to get to know you and your dog before I come into both of your guys domain. I would follow directions however you desire and most importantly treat them as my own fur baby.
About: Our senior rescues passed on last year; I want to care for others animals as I did for them. If you are going on vacation, out of town, or having a long day at work, I can check in with them. My work is sporadic, but I am taking time off and re-connecting with furry friends. I can spend several hours a day with your pets as needed My house does have a fenced back yard. We love very close to the bike path which is ideal for walks. If they have specific diet concerns that is good to know as well.
“Jennifer was absolutely wonderful with Safaa! From the moment I dropped her off, I felt comfortable knowing she was in caring hands. Jennifer kept me updated throughout the stay with messages and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was always quick to communicate and made sure I knew how Safaa was doing. Both Jennifer and her husband were incredibly sweet and kind, and it was clear they genuinely love and care for animals. Their three beautiful cats added to the warm and welcoming environment. I am so grateful for the care Safaa received and will definitely be using Jennifer again in the future. Thank you for making Safaa’s stay such a positive experience!”
About: I’ve been around and have taken care of my own dogs since I was 10, any age, any size. For as long as I can remember I’ve never not had a dog of my own. They were not lying when they said dogs are a man’s best friend. I treat my fur baby like he is my literal baby because in a sense he is. And I treat any other dog just the same! :) I work full time m-f 9-5. I let my own fur baby out of the cage and he is monitored on a camera and watches tv while I am away. I can easily leave your fur baby out or they can be crated. I come home on lunch break to take Gravel out. I can only do boarding during the week but I have open full availability on the weekends. My own fur baby eats 2 times a day one morning one night. Gets treats often 🤭 and gets all the cuddles. I will treat your dog with the very same love and care as I do mine. Gravel is very loving and has been begging me for a play mate. Can’t wait to see where this goes.
About: I have always had dogs in my life and I am ready to meet and take care of yours! I have had 3 Saint Bernards and 3 Basset Hounds so I know how to handle size and sass. I've been working in kennels and doggy daycares since I was 16, so I have 5 years of animal care experience that I can bring to the table. This includes administering meds (syringe feeding, injection, and oral), walking pets, soothing stressed animals, playtime, on and off-leash experience. cleaning up after pets, and maintaining their environment. A little bit of poop won't scare me! I am currently looking for a job so my hours are completely open at the moment, but that may change. I will make sure to keep in contact with any of my pet owners about any changes in my schedule. I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex, but I would prefer to look after pets in their home environment. I drive a large car so I can transport animals anywhere you should ask me to. I currently do not have a pet of my very own so your pets will be my priority!
“Arianna impressed me from the start with her great communication before booking. She stayed overnight with my mom's two 14-year-old cats. I came home to two happy cats and a clean house. Thank you so much, Arianna!”
About: Hi, I’m Brianna! Animals have been a part of my life since the day I was born. I have owned and cared for many animals throughout my life, and I currently have two dogs of my own who love to play and exercise their brains. I understand how scary it can be to find someone you truly trust with your fur babies as I have been through that. I can assure you that I will treat your fur babies as if they were my own. It is so important to me to show patience and love to every animal I have the opportunity to meet. I have experience with handling multiple dogs at one time. Most of my pet care experience is with dogs who are 100+ pounds. I also have a basic knowledge of obedience training (including leash walking) with puppies and adult dogs. I am experienced with dogs who are reactive, and I know how to use patience and positive reinforcement (clicker training) to help dogs begin to feel safe in environments where they are nervous. I have had a leash reactive dog myself, so I understand how certain environments or objects can easily trigger a dog. Please let me know any and all details about your pet, so I can give them the best care possible! I work from home, so I am able to fit pet care in daily from 5 am - 7:30 am and 4 pm - 10 pm. and I am available almost every weekend Friday through Monday and am available for a lot of holidays. I will treat your pets as I treat my own. I am so passionate about animals and making sure they feel loved and cared for at all times. I understand how nerve-racking it can be to leave your pets with someone new, but I am very patient, gentle, and caring with them.
About: I have always been a dog lover! I have taken care of dogs since I was 8 starting with my first puppy. I’ve helped train, watched, feed my neighbors dogs and family friends. I love dogs or all sizes and breeds. I would love to meet your fur baby!! I am currently working part- time so I am available most days and times. I will do my absolute best to find a way to fit your dog needs into my schedule. I always keep a close eye on dogs in my care, and to best understand what they might want or need. I am very open to whatever the dog needs. That could be lots of play time outside, and leashed walk, fetch, or some relaxing cuddle time.
About: When I found my love for animals I knew I needed to help others that love there special family members! When your away or stuck at work and your worried about your special friends and what there feelings, don’t worry i’ll help you out! From a drop in walk at the park or a week stay while your out of town, I’m what you need!

“We appreciate the communication and flexibility provided esp with a late scramble with another sitter this past couple of weeks. And, most importantly, we were confident our big fur-baby was happy and taken care of with walks and more!”
About: What sets me apart from others sitters is the unconditional love that I have for animals in plural, the space they have in my heart. I’m mostly at home, I’m in my second trimester of pregnancy, and I’m most of the time alone because my husband works. Here to help. I just moved to a new apartment and the environment is very friendly, is comfortable, and very peaceful. I speak English and Spanish. Everyone’s welcome.
About: I have had dogs since the day I was born and am currently mommy to one dog, four cats, two goats and a sassy pet cow. I am located on a three acre farm on the outskirts of town in Marysville, Ohio, and offer services to most surrounding areas. I offer boarding, daycare, house/farm sitting, drop-in visits, dog walking, livestock/exotic care, and more! I can assure you that your pet(s) could not possibly be in better hands! They will get all the love and attention that I would give my own ....and then some. I look forward to caring for your furred, feathered, hooved, and scaled family members real soon! :) My life and schedule is centered around my animals. I own a trailer rental company and can alter my schedule however is needed to make sure all animals in my care and on my schedule are well cared for. I care for my clients pets as instructed and love them as if they are my own. Animals rule the world here at the farm and are allowed on all furniture and beds. Roughly an acre is securely chain link fenced and gated for plenty of outdoor exercise, weather permitting.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life and love providing a safe living home where your animals feel loved and safe. I work from home as a software developer and have plenty of free time to give your fur babies the attention they need. Call me!! We have a full basement with plenty of room to run and play. We also have a backyard that we put our dogs and yours on a leash tethered to the fence to keep them from roaming. Also take frequent walks to stretch their legs!!
About: I've been training and caring for dogs professionally for over 15 years. I enjoy caring for dogs and enriching their lives through exercise and training. If your dog needs a walk while you're at work, or you need vacation care for your pets, I'm here for you and your pets. I have trained and titled dogs in Obedience, Rally, Agility and Tricks. I am also a Certified Assistance dog trainer. Along with walks and drop-ins, I also offer day training services that we can discuss at our initial meet and greet, if you're interested in me training with your dog during the day as part of, or instead of, a walk. Walking and training is my full-time job. I'm available weekdays, and some weekends. I'd love to care for your dog while you're at work or away. Exercise, play and train with dogs during the day while their humans are away. Reinforcing good behavior is my specialty. I love training walks and fun training sessions to keep dogs mentally and physically stimulated. If you'd like, I can incorporate training into any of my visits for an additional fee. Reach out for more information. I utilize the dogs food and toys to positively reinforce good behaviors that we'd like to see more of. I work on the basics and fun tricks and skills, not behavior problems or aggression.
About: Hi, I’m Amanda. I’m the owner of Unleashed Peaks, a full-time dog training and behavior coaching business built on calm communication, structure, and trust. Along with training, I also offer structured boarding and daycare in a peaceful, home-style environment where dogs can relax, play, and learn safely. Because I’m a trainer first, everything I do — from playgroups to potty breaks — is intentional. Dogs get enrichment, exercise, and clear routines that build confidence while keeping things fun and low-stress. I follow LIMA (Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive) principles to make sure every dog feels safe, understood, and respected. I love working with all types of dogs, especially those who need a little extra support or structure while you’re away. Whether your pup is here for the day or a full board and train, they’ll be treated like family. Quirks, goofiness, and all. My goal is simple: for you to come home to a happy, relaxed, and well-adjusted dog who’s had a fulfilling stay and maybe learned a few new skills along the way. I’m home full-time and spend most of my day working with dogs through my business, Unleashed Peaks. Because training and structured care are what I do every day, your dog is never left unattended for long and always part of a calm, consistent routine. Drop-offs and pick-ups are flexible - mornings and early afternoons usually work best, but I’m happy to coordinate around your schedule. Whether your pup is here for daycare or boarding, they’ll get a balance of play, enrichment, rest, and individualized attention throughout the day. Dogs in my care stay in a calm, structured, and enrichment-based environment that helps them feel secure and relaxed. My home is designed with safety in mind, with separate rest areas, and consistent supervision. We have 5 acres of land. Our fence is in progress right now but we have never had an issue! As a full-time trainer, I understand canine body language and group dynamics deeply. I make sure each dog’s play, rest, and social time match their comfort level. New dogs are introduced slowly and respectfully so they can settle in at their own pace. I keep routines predictable and communication clear so dogs always know what to expect. Whether they are here for a day or an extended stay, every dog is treated like family: safe, understood, and cared for.
“Josie and Jimmy are wonderfully loving and caring. They have a lovely, pet friendly home, and we did not have to worry about our dog. They kept us updated with photos. We will definitely use them again!”
“Georgia was well taken care of by Yoniray and family. It was our first time using Rover, but Yoniray made us feel at easy with updates and pictures throughout the day. I would recommend Yoniray to anyone looking for someone to take care of their dog.”
“Fantastic experience! Upper dare care provided on short notice. Our puppy was worn out after a day of play. Very pleased with the care Anna (Xi) provided. Very conscientious, asked all the questions to make sure our puppy’s experience was maximized. Highly recommend!”
“She is always so kind and so good at taking care of Lil Bit. I really appreciate your flexibility in your schedule. Omayra is always so kind. Thank you and your family so much for allowing my baby in your home 🏡.”
About: Growing up on a farm set the stage for providing and caring for all sorts of animals. Many years spent showing horses, lambs, goats, market hogs and all sorts of small animals in 4H. After college I started working with standardbred race horses as a groom. Since then for the past 6 years I have worked with racehorses, broodmares and foals. All the while keeping my loyal canines happy. Since having a sweet baby boy in April, I have quit my full time job. On occasion I still work for my fiancé and his families racehorse stable. I am looking to add some fun and exciting new friends to my daily routine! My family and our two dogs Brandi a 6 year old mountain cur / beagle mix and Iggy a 6 month old mini Aussie/beagle mix live in a quite neighborhood with a recently added privacy that backs up to a woods. Our home is secured by Nest security cameras. Your family members would be welcomed into our home or given their own privacy room or kennel depending on their individual needs. If your 4 legged family member is more comfortable staying at their own home, playing in their own yard and walks in a familiar neighborhood, I also offer that!
“Maria was wonderful and took fantastic care of my little girl Bailey. I got photo updates regularly and really appreciate Maria taking such great care of her and being so communicative!”

My dog is a playful pup who loves furry friends but can also easily be separated. 🫶🐕💕

My goal is simple: for you to come home to a happy, relaxed, and well-adjusted dog who’s had a fulfilling stay and maybe learned a few new skills along the way. I’m home full-time and spend most of my day working with dogs through my business, Unleashed Peaks. Because training and structured care are what I do every day, your dog is never left unattended for long and always part of a calm, consistent routine. Drop-offs and pick-ups are flexible - mornings and early afternoons usually work best, but I’m happy to coordinate around your schedule. Whether your pup is here for daycare or boarding, they’ll get a balance of play, enrichment, rest, and individualized attention throughout the day. Dogs in my care stay in a calm, structured, and enrichment-based environment that helps them feel secure and relaxed. My home is designed with safety in mind, with separate rest areas, and consistent supervision. We have 5 acres of land. Our fence is in progress right now but we have never had an issue! As a full-time trainer, I understand canine body language and group dynamics deeply. I make sure each dog’s play, rest, and social time match their comfort level. New dogs are introduced slowly and respectfully so they can settle in at their own pace. I keep routines predictable and communication clear so dogs always know what to expect. Whether they are here for a day or an extended stay, every dog is treated like family: safe, understood, and cared for.
About: My whole life there was an animal in my household. So ever since I was 5 years old I would help out. It started off as just feeding the dogs but as I got older I gained more and more experience. Taking the dogs on a walk, letting them outside, simple grooming, administering medicine, etc. Dogs and animals alike have a special place in my heart. They truly are man’s best friend. Even if it isn’t my personal animal it is my goal to give your furry friend the same care and affection that they deserve. I’m currently a college student in my sophomore year. I miss my dogs now that I’m not home, so I truly do give other people dogs as if they are my own. My schedule is mostly open in the evenings and I’m more than willing to work things out, even outside of hours that are listed in my profile. I would want to get to know you and your dog before I come into both of your guys domain. I would follow directions however you desire and most importantly treat them as my own fur baby.
About: I am a trained veterinarian assistance (over 10 years experience) with a background in positive reinforcement training and grooming. I've also done a lot of work with special needs dogs (deaf, blind, amputees, behavioral issues, megaesophagous, Degenerative Myelopathy, diabetes, ect.) as well as being a certified therapy dog handler and trainer with Black Paw Canine. I worked for 10 years as a full time veterinary assistant at non-profit, full service vet clinics in Columbus and at various dog boarding and training facilities. I work part time as a Firefighter/Paramedic, so I am looking to fill my spare time doing something else I love! I wish to tailor the experience for each pet I meet. I can play, run, cuddle, groom, administer meds, train, you name it! It all depends on what your pet enjoys and what will be most beneficial to them! Thank you for trusting me with your furry family members! You can rest easy that with my years of experience and my time in veterinary and human medicine that your furry family member will receive the best care! I typically work one-two 24hr shifts with my fire department and then am completely free on my other days off. This gives me plenty of flexibility to help work around other schedules! Each pet gets a specialized care plan based on their needs. This will be discussed in length as to which things you'd like me to work on with your pup or what things we can reinforce when I care for your pet.
“Cori has been walking my Maxie since August 2021 everyday. Maxie enjoys her daily walks with Cori. Cori sends me a daily update and photo of her and Maxie's time together. Cori gives Maxie a full walk and treats Maxie as if she were her own dog. We are very pleased with Cori's services and recommend her.”
About: I’ve been taking care of my 15 year old dog since she was 8 weeks old! She now needs a lot more potty breaks than before, requires medication occasionally and waits for me to give her massages after waking up because her arthritis is worse in the morning! As you can see she needs extra catering to since she has gotten older. She is spoiled and cuddly and I love every second of it! I’m a social worker who does “home visits” for children during the day. My job is community based therefore it gives me more flexibility with my daily schedule. I think mental health is important therefore I believe in daily walks for myself! I will walk as long and as far as your dog will allow me to go! I have a wooded walking trail in my neighborhood that allows for exploring opportunities for your furry family members. 😊
About: As a remote worker and pet owner myself, I am the go-to pet sitter, walker, and caregiver for friends, family, and neighbors. My 5 year old Mountain Cur mix Charlie Boy and 4 year old Bengal cat Bug are my adventure buddies, whether we're hiking local trails or rock climbing in the mountains. With 10+ years of experience caring for dogs, cats, small mammals, and the occasional reptile, I consider myself an experienced pet caregiver. I have administered medication, provided physical therapy exercises, monitored special diets, and provided wound care when needed. My time working with the Delaware County Humane Society has allowed me to foster dogs with medical or behavioral issues and support their rehabilitation. Safety and happiness are my top priorities for any pet in my care. I treat them like members of my own family, providing exercise, mental stimulation, medication and rehabilitation, transportation, and any other care as needed. As a remote worker, I have flexibility to accommodate mid-day walks, visits, or medication. My home is fully pet-proofed with a securely fenced outdoor space nearby. I look forward to adventuring with your furry friends and providing the highest quality care and attention when you can't be there yourself. Please feel free to contact me to discuss your pet's needs - I'm happy to answer any questions. As a remote worker, I'm fortunate to have a flexible schedule that allows me to seamlessly integrate pet care into my regular routine. I typically start my day by taking Charlie Boy on a morning walk or run. We'll come home, I'll begin work, and he'll lounge by my feet or catch up on naps. Around noon, I take a break to get some energy out with Charlie Boy and give Bug her midday treat. In the afternoon, you can often find me sitting outside with my laptop watching Charlie Boy play fetch while Bug chases bugs in the grass. I'm able to schedule meetings and calls around pet needs, as well as take advantage of gaps between meetings to provide meals, walks, medication administration, or anything else a pet in my care may need. I finish up my workday while Charlie Boy chews on a toy beside me and Bug gazes out the window. After work, we all pile into the car to head to the park or explore a new hiking trail to end our day on an adventure together. My flexible schedule allows me to seamlessly provide excellent pet care while meeting the needs of my remote job. I'd love to do the same for your furry friends! For pet sitting in my home, I ensure my house is fully pet-proofed with no dangers for curious paws and mouths. I designate pet-friendly areas with beds, toys, scratching posts, litter boxes, and anything else to keep them comfortable and entertained. When pet sitting in a client's home, I follow care instructions for their specific pets and home environment. I provide the same level of care - feeding, medication, exercise, play, love and attention on a set schedule. For dog walking, I come prepared with waste bags. We go on 20-30 minute walks based on the dog's needs and age. I give them time to enjoy sniffing and exploring on the walk. For cats, I visit once or twice a day for feedings, litter box cleaning, play time and medication if needed. My goal is to provide a consistent experience whether pets are in my home or their own.
About: My care for dogs goes beyond my own personal pets, as I've volunteered and helped local shelters as well as neighbors and family friends with their pets. I am currently an independent contractor for a few different companies. I do not have a set schedule as I make my own hours so I am able to fit pet care into my daily and weekly schedule! The best way to care for a pet is by giving any pet the attention and love they need. I can stick to routines set by the pet's owners as well as providing updates to the owners on how walks, bathroom breaks, play time and other activities are going!
About: I've had pets since I was 10. I have taken care of both cats and dogs. Friendly, conscientious, and thorough. Can't wait to walk new dogs/friends. I'm currently off of work for the summer as I teach full time during the school year. I am working on taking time for myself, exercising, and walking dogs. I take care of my pets by either crating them or leaving them in a bedroom when I am out and about. I have a crate for them to use.

“Kelsey and her family took care of my dog for 3 weeks and I don’t think I could have found a more loving and perfect family to care for my dog. I got daily photo updates and after seeing the way they treated my dog like a part of the family I had ZERO worries. Best dog sitter in the Omaha area!”

Kris will 100% be our go-to for future boarding needs.”

We would absolutely recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and communicative pet sitter!”

“Amazing Care for My Pup! 🐾 We really appreciated the care and patience that Maia provided to Remy who still very much has puppy energy but is already almost full size. Maia provided outstanding care for my dog while I was away. From the moment we met, it was clear how much she genuinely loves and cares about her own dog, Kermit so I was very comfortable leaving Remy in her care. If Maia would be willing to take Remy again, I absolutely would book with her again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for top-notch pet care! 🐶💕”
