About: Always have had deep love for animals. Because of family members, I've had experiences with a wide range of pets. I love to train dogs and would love to provide that during my pet sitting. I also acknowledge not only the importance of your pet, but of you, your family, and the home I work in. I am currently a full-time college student at the University of Omaha. My availabilities would be every day of the week with exceptions of class and my part-time job at Boys Town. I would provide care for my clients in their home, due to my apartment's animal restrictions. I respect the privacy of my clients by clarifying boundaries and rules for the home.
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: My parents have been breeding dogs for years now. As a child of the household, it was my responsibility to feed, walk, and do any other necessary tasks to care for the 15 dogs my parents own when it was my turn to do so. I also had one dog specifically of my own, which I have owned and cared for a total of seven years. I am now living independently, ready to care for others. I currently work Mondays through Fridays from around 8:00am to 5:00pm in Omaha, Nebraska. I am available any other day, and I am flexible. I live in Omaha, NE, but I can drive wherever necessary. I live in Dundee. It's a mostly quiet and green area. I see other owners and their pets quite often here, but it is easy to avoid them while still spending a good amount of time outside if your little one is a bit more on the anti-social side. I am very respectful and watchful of others' pets as well as any under my wing.
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 🤗
About: I currently work at an animal shelter. I have been certified in pet CPR, First Aid and Behavior, and trained to administer medication via shots or orally, as well as care for elderly pets. I work full time with a semi-flexible schedule. The best times for me are before 8am and after 5pm but I can still do mid-day visits. I only care for pets in the owners’ homes. I am able to do drop-in visits and dog walking (sometimes not in the freezing weather).
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.
About: I have been a dog own for almost 30 years. From puppies to seniors, small to large, I love them all! While you are away, I want to give your best friend the same love and attention that you would give them. I work full-time during the week, but have plenty of time on the weekends. My daughter is off at college so I have all the time in the world on the weekend to hang out with your pup. I am happy to spend the night if that is what works for you. I can stop in multiple times per day and I am willing to stay the night with your pup if that something that you would like
About: I’ve lived in a pet friendly home my entire life and helped with the daily care of pets. I have also helped to train our new puppy. I am a student so during the summer I have a very flexible schedule. I am able to work on weekdays and most weekends, giving me plenty of time to take great care of your pets! The safety and health of your pets is my first priority. When caring for your pets I will make sure they are either leashed or in a fenced yard and always monitored when needed. Of course making sure they have lots of fun as well!
“Patrick was always on time, and walked each of my dogs for the amount of time agreed upon. I truly believe he loves my dogs as much as I do! I would 110% recommend Patrick and Jillian! I’m home with a broken foot, and Patrick went above and beyond by helping get my trash out and brining up my packages. This is my first time using any app to help with my dogs, and I was a little apprehensive to let a stranger be with my pets, but I’m beyond thankful, grateful, and pleased by my experience with Patrick. He’d take the dogs for their walks while I wasn’t home, and have complete and utter trust in him. Thank you Patrick for your help during my difficult time.”
About: My name is Abby, I love dogs and have grown up with at least two dogs in my house my whole life.

I am open to walk dogs in the morning before I go to work at 9:45am during the week, on the weekends, or even to stop and let your dog out on my lunch break. I am super flexible and open to hear your Needs! I currently work 9:45-7! So I can take your pup on a walk before work, let it out on my lunch break, and spend the night cuddled up with him/her. And on my days off I have all the time to play and walk and snuggle! In my home with the help of my boyfriend who also loves pups we will attentively care for and watch your pup. We love to snuggle them and take them for walks.
About: I’m a proud pet mom to both a dog and a cat, so I understand the unique needs and personalities of each. I treat every pet like my own—with patience, love, and lots of attention. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or sticking to a routine, I make sure your pets feel safe and cared for while you’re away. I also offer weekend availability, perfect for those quick getaways!

I have my dog and my cat already and they would love to make new friends I just moved to a house and it’s just my husband and I with our cat and dog and they are super friendly with other animals and we all love cuddle time
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, especially large breeds like German Shepherds and St. Bernards, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I’m also a professional dog groomer with two years of experience, which has helped me understand dog behavior and care on a deeper level. I’m comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, temperaments and energy levels! I’ve dog sat for family and friends many times, handling feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure their pets feel safe and loved while they’re away. I treat every animal like they’re part of my family. I work 10-hour shifts with three days off each week, but I always make time to ensure your pets are well cared for, including walks, potty breaks, and attention. You can trust that I’ll treat your pets like my own and keep them happy, safe, and comfortable. I currently work part time and nanny on the side. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays I work 9-5. I am usually available for sure Saturdays and Sundays. Tuesdays and Thursdays I nanny till 12 so I’m available anytime after that, but I always will find time to play, feed and let your dogs out to go potty! I will care for your pets as I care for my own. Animals hold a very dear place in my heart so I will treat them like my own and take care of them to my best abilities from walking them to playing with them outside.
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! Whether you need a house-sitter for two weeks or just someplace safe to drop off your small dog for a day or two, I make it my top priority to put your mind at ease. I will send you daily updates, as well as multiple photos and videos of your pet(s) detailing their day and how they did! 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!

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Waterloo. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Waterloo.

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 walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Waterloo. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
