About: I grew up with animals, so I am comfortable around and am experienced with them. I also frequently dog and cat sit for friends and acquaintances! I work part time, so I have plenty of time to give animals the time and love they need! I also am flexible with schedule. I offer dog walking and services only at client's home, but I am careful, trustworthy, and will follow instructions well. I will accommodate to whatever you and your pet needs!
“Tricia was great with our dogs! She provided regular updates with photos. She asked good questions to make sure they were properly cared for. We returned to happy and healthy pups after a week of being away and would book her again!”
About: I love dogs and cats. I have had them my whole life! My labrador just passed away so I am looking for some pet interaction! I miss her dearly. I have taken care of both dogs and cats with special needs, behavioral issues, and senior pets. I love taking both on walks, car rides, park trips, etc. whatever they like to do! Currently working a hybrid job so I can work from home if needed. I’m more of a home body so I will have plenty of chill time with your fur babies. I also like going on outdoor adventures like walks and dog parks weather permitting. At home I have a fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood. There is one friendly dog and one solitary but other pet friendly senior cat. Both can be secluded to the upstairs if needed.
About: Hi! I’m an experienced and dedicated pet caregiver with a genuine love for animals. I volunteered with the Humane Society and have been a foster parent for the past 4 years, giving me hands-on experience caring for animals with different personalities, needs, and backgrounds. I’m comfortable providing medical and special-needs care, including administering medications and monitoring animals who require additional attention. I understand how important it is to follow your pet’s routine and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work from home, so your dog or cat will have someone around throughout the day rather than being left alone for long periods. I make sure pets receive fresh food and water every day, plenty of attention and companionship, and regular potty breaks. I take dogs outside approximately every two hours while also following their individual schedule and needs. Whether your pet needs lots of playtime and cuddles, a calm environment, medication, or simply a dependable person to keep them company, I’m happy to provide personalized care. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. ❤️🐶 Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and am able to be present throughout the day. I’m available to give pets regular attention, potty breaks, fresh food and water, playtime, and plenty of companionship. I typically take dogs outside about every two hours and make sure they stay on their normal routine as much as possible. I also have experience with medication administration and caring for animals with medical or special needs, so I’m comfortable providing more individualized care when needed. My schedule allows me to make your pet a priority rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I care for every pet as if they were my own, while following the routine and instructions their owner provides. I make sure they have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. Since I work from home, I’m able to provide consistent supervision and companionship throughout the day. I’m also experienced with administering medications and caring for animals with medical or special needs. When caring for a pet in a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything clean and organized while maintaining the pet’s normal routine. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands.
“Liz was great! She was quick to respond to messages and it was amazing that she was able to dog sit on such short notice! She came over the day before to meet Maverick and he liked her immediately! I will definitely be rebooking with Liz should the need arise.”
“Kara did a wonderful job watching our dog Luna in our home while we were out of town. She was very responsive, sending us daily updates and photos which we loved! And she went above and beyond to make Luna feel comfortable during some over night storms that came through. We will definitely be hiring her again in the future!”
“I am always at ease whenever Melissa is sitting with our Meeko. I know he is in the best hands possible, she communicates daily with me along with sending pictures, and Meeko always looks so relaxed in those photos. Melissa is always welcome in my home and always welcome to sit with Meeeko anytime”
About: I’ve been a dog lover and owner since age 10. I have experience with dogs of all sizes (including giant dogs), geriatric dogs, dogs that need medications, special diets, and/or diapers, as well as the joys and frustrations of puppyhood. I will treat your dog as if it is my own (and probably give them a few nicknames too). Bring on the wet nose kisses, walks, play time, and cuddles! I’m self-employed so I can be available any time or day of the week. I’m proud to provide flexible and last minute scheduling for my clients. I consider it a privilege to have you trust me with your furry family member(s). I want their experience to be as smooth and consistent as possible while you are away, so I’m happy to follow any and all routines, as “weird” or “complicated” as you might think they are. The last thing I want is for you to be worried about your pet(s) while you are gone. Trust they are in good hands with me.
“Celeste watched my Dane while I was away for about two weeks over Christmas break. She did a wonderful job with my Dane. Followed his schedule as well. If she had questions she asked and even sent updates. She left my home just as it was before I left. I had no concerns and will use her again.”
“Kim was amazing! We have two little fur babies, one was only 12 weeks old when she stayed and, God bless her, she took care of that puppy and our older baby so well! Accidents and all! She left our house exactly as she found it, was amazing to work with and sent us tons of pics while we were gone! I will absolutely call Kim next time we leave town!! Highly recommend!”
“Linda was amazing for our little Karl!!! We were so thankful didn’t haveto be kenneled. She played with Karl who does require a lot of attention and play time. She kept us updated and sent pics and videos. It was so nice to be able to relax knowing he was in good hands!!! Our house was just the way we left it!! Very respectful!!! Book her if you can you’ll be happy you did.”
About: I have always had dogs. I have trained dogs for years, including hunting dogs. I have helped others with their animals throughout the years as well. I also take care of a farm and their animals from time to time just north of Omaha she would be a reference. I work remotely, so I’m home all the time unless I need to run a quick errand. There is direct access into my apartment, so no need to go through hallways. I will treat them like they’re my own and we walked every day. I have a park here. I also live right next to Lake Zirinsky so taking a walk at the park is easy.
“Juan was great. Good communication on cats and house. Pictures and videos really cheered us up. Kittens seemed to really like him. Did some extra tasks like water plants, feed the birds...even mowed lawn when got too long. Will definitely use him again. A+++”

FAQs for House Sitting - Wahoo
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 843 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Wahoo. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Wahoo walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Wahoo maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Wahoo choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Wahoo. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
