“Cortney was really wonderful with bleu and was so sweet. Completely trustworthy and kind!! I couldn’t recommend her enough to everyone needing someone to walk or take care of your precious fur baby!!”
About: I am a recently married 26 year old who grew up with multiple dogs being a large part of my life! I am very active and ran at the collegiate level. I had multiple dogs growing up and was responsible for all the primary caretaking responsibilities. I have a great flexible job in the foodservice industry, but our apartment does not allow us to own a dog here. I am hoping I can get some fun dog time on Rover! I work remotely from home and am able to build my own schedule! I can always find extra time in my day to take care of someone’s pet if needed! I grew up as the main caretaker for my dog who passed away at 15. I would take him on walks, runs (I like to run as I ran in college), and just play with all of his new toys whenever he would get them!
“Scott is a wonderful caregiver for my dog Jasper. He takes the time to learn about my dog’s needs and is a great companion for Jasper in my absence. Jasper took to him immediately which “says it all!” Scott is timely, communicative, and responsible for all of my wishes for Jasper’s care. Top notch, highly recommend!”
“My dog loves Kelly and the walks they take.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life — not just as pets, but as family. I’ve raised and cared for everything from dogs and cats to rats, snakes, and even ferrets (I once stopped on a highway in Illinois to rescue one!). At one point, I had four dogs under one roof, and yes — they still managed to take up most of the bed. What makes me different from other sitters is that I truly understand the quirks, personalities, and needs of all kinds of animals. I don’t just “watch” pets — I bond with them, respect their routines, and treat them like they’re my own. Whether your pup needs long walks, your cat needs quiet cuddles, or your ferret needs a little adventure, I’ve got the experience (and heart) to give them the care they deserve. I love all animals and I am currently semi retired and have a lot of free time on my hands. I can’t think of any better way to spend my free time than around loving animals. I currently am not able to care for dogs and cats in my home, but am more than happy to come to your home and or stay overnights.
“Gabrielle is great with Harold!”
“Rick did a good job with Dobey. I would hire him again but he is moving.”
About: I’ve been watching pets and walking dogs since I was around 12 years old! I am a very active person and I love dogs, and one of my favorite things to do is taking my dogs on long walks. My best asset is the fact that I am a very active person, and I will make sure that my dogs get the right amount of time every day for outside/active play time. I have lots of experience working with pets with diabetes, and I am comfortable and know how to properly inject dogs with insulin. I am a student athlete, who is going to be home for the summer! I get back to Omaha on May 9th and will be free all summer and eager to work! When pet sitting, I make sure to follow all of the owners rules and guidelines. I also pick up the house and make sure I leave it better than I found it.
About: I drove through a tornado in 2024 to get home and get my 3 dogs and 1 cat to safety. I believe pets are just as important as family and treat them as such. I work a few hours late in the afternoon and have plenty of availability to help others by tending to their pets when they can't. I will follow the owner's wishes as far as checking in on their pets. Potty breaks, feeding, and lots of attention. I will treat their pets like my own - they are my priority and I take the responsibility seriously. My three dogs are my family and those that know me will attest to my love for pets. I am very protective of their welfare and have their best interests at heart.
About: Hey! Thanks for checking me out. My name is Mark, and the morkie in the picture is my best friend and rescue pup Charlie. We both recently moved back in with my mother, who is thrilled to potentially start hosting more pups! Charlie spent the first year of his life in a crate, in a household that largely ignored him. While I'm grateful that this was the extent of his neglect, he didn't come out of it unscathed. In fact, he has the worst separation anxiety of any dog that I've ever owned! He also has a tough time dealing with dogs that are significantly bigger than him. That's why I decided to move back home and shorten my hours at work, so I can always be present for him. I've been looking after dogs since I was 14, and I've worked at two separate dog boarding and grooming salons across 5 years+. I am excellent with dogs of all breeds and sizes. If you're wanting to find a reliable, safe and trusted person to go above and BEYOND for the care of your pup(s), look no further! I will send you daily updates, as well as multiple photos detailing how your pup(s) did! I will take your pup(s) on the hour long walk I provide Charlie with every day. (Can break this into two or three walks if your pup(s) don't tolerate long walks). As a part-time, work-from-home call center supervisor, there are usually only a handful of moments each day that I'm required to sit at my desk. I have a senior position that allows me to take frequent breaks and delegate tasks, ensuring I am always attentive to my pup and household. I live in an extremely safe neighborhood in Northwest Omaha with a large, fenced in backyard. I have over 5 years of paid experience dealing with dogs of all breeds, sizes and temperaments. I specialize in puppies and dogs with separation anxiety or high energy!
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.
“Brooke is awesome!! Her communication is great. She was so patient and great with my boy Teddy and now he loves her!”
“Awesome at helping with doggos!! Highly recommend ❤️”
About: I own 2 dogs and both are rescues. I know what it means to take care of new and even sometimes difficult dogs. It would be an honor to help you care for yours. I am currently working part-time and looking for side jobs so I would have plenty of time to care for your animals while you are away. I can come to your home and care for your dogs in whatever way you prefer me to. I have reliable transportation so I am also able to take your dog to the park, for walks/hikes, or even to vet appointments if needed!
About: Hello my name is Jason and I have grown up with dogs my entire life. My most recent dogs were a yellow and black lab (Cooper and Carter). As they aged, Cooper became a diabetic which required insulin shots twice a day. Unfortunately he also loss his eye sight because of it. I was his eyes and he trusted me where ever we went. They both lived to the young age of 14 years old. Sadly, I don’t think I could handle the loss of another loving dog but I would be honored to help take care of your lovable pets whenever you need it. I work full time but I work from home so my schedule is flexible. I can take them for a quick walk or if you need someone to stay while you’re out of town I can work from your house. I would be happy to take care of your pets at your house. Whether it’s taking them outside during the day, taking them for a walk, or staying a few days while you’re gone, I am happy to help.
About: I’ve loved dogs ever since I was a kid. I finally got my own mini bernadoodle a year ago! It’s been the best first year with her. I love dogs of all kinds and would love to get to know your fur babies too 🐶💛 My schedule is pretty flexible and I am willing to help out whenever. Whether that is walking, taking your pup out for a potty break or playing with your pup, I’m your girl! I have a friendly 1 year old mini bernadoodle puppy who I can bring with if you want your dog to have more socialization. Otherwise, I can come to your home and can crate your dog after if needed.
