“Jackie was great! Very flexible with my changes in hours and sent pictures/updates throughout the day. You can tell she really loves dogs and takes great care of them while you're away 😊”


“Keeley was very sweet. Drop off and pickup were easy. Blitz had a great time with Goose and the other pups and came home all worn out 👍 He was living his best life. If I need to, I'd definitely use them again!”



“Ann is such a Godsend to us! She took good care of our 2 baby girls 🐾🐾. They loved her and had a wonderful time. We feel so blessed to have found such a warm, kindhearted, and trustworthy person to look after our precious babies! 💖🙏🏻 Thank you so much, Ann! ☺️”


“Amy was absolutely amazing with our pup! I was really nervous leaving him the first day because he was so small (only 11 weeks) and he’s pretty attached to us. By the third day he was really excited to see her when I dropped him off. This definitely reassured me that he is happy and well taken care of when he is in her care. Not only that, but i can tell she has been working with him on potty training/taking him out regularly too, because he has less accidents at home than before. We will definitely continue to use her when we need a sitter for our little guy!”


“Eliza is so sweet! She sent me photos during the day. She kept me updated on how Midnight was doing. He seemed to really enjoy his time there and has gotten to make lots of new friends! I will definitely continuing using her to watch my baby.”


“Jodie is wonderful! We left our 10 month old Lucy with her for an afternoon to make sure everyone (people and dogs) was compatible before leaving Lucy for a week in July. Lucy had a great time and everyone got along really well. Jodie was very caring and interested in getting to know Lucy. We will definitely use her again!”


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!

“Erin was PHENOMENAL with our small cavapoo pup!! She kept us informed and sent a lot of pictures and he was spoiled with love of the time he was with her and the family. She even made him. A little bandanna, how sweet!!! We WILL be back and feel very fortunate to have her help!! Thank you so much!”


“Hannah is the perfect dog sitter! My Lady Mac went to her for 4 days of doggie daycare and loved every minute of it. She came home happy and exhausted which was great to see as this was our first time having our pup being watched by someone else. Hannah did an amazing job of listening to and following the feeding schedule and watching over to ensure play time was safe for all dogs involved. On top of managing that all, she did a fantastic job of sending pictures and videos of the fun our Lady was having. There was never a question or worry in my mind about how the day was going. When you leave your dog with Hannah, you can be 100% sure that he/she is well taken care of!”



“Milo really enjoyed himself at Jill’s. He played with her doggies and had so much fun. Jill is very easy going, lovely home and yard. Very clean and perfect set up for the dogs to run and play. Will be using her again!”


“It was my first time leaving my pup and she loved her time with Katarina, Butters and Tenzy! Katarina took such great care of her and I got the cutest picture/video updates. Thanks for giving her all the snuggles, treats, and playtime! ?”


About: New to Rover, but I've been raising dogs all my life! My family had Labradors and Boxers, I adopted a Basset, and I married someone who loves her Maltese. My wife and I have a spacious house, a large yard, a covered deck, lots of napping couches, and several dog gates so we can give your pup as much supervision as you'd like. We can do meet and greet, a house tour, and an introduction to our own dogs, George (our Basset) and Milo (our Maltese). I work from home, which means your dog's schedule gets followed no matter what. I can easily accommodate frequent potty breaks, play sessions, cuddle times, feeding schedules, and walks. Our dogs (George and Milo) get time outside in the yard at each meal, at least one walk a day in the evening, and play time whenever they want it. Depending on your pup, they're welcome to join those routines, or do more or less. We have our home very intentionally set up for dogs. My work-from-home station consists of just a laptop, which means I can work from whatever room in our home makes your furry friend feel most at home. Our dog gates let pups roam while ensuring we can keep an eye on them. Our own dogs (George and Milo) are social but also independent, so if your pup prefers one on one time with humans, we'll make sure he or she gets it.

About: I've watched dogs of friends and family on and off for the past 11 years. It's been a mix of older dogs, young dogs, large and small. I'm a stay at home mom. Our pets are rarely home alone for more than a couple hours at a time a couple days each week. I have a fenced in yard and friendly pooch with loads of toys to share. Our dog has unlimited access to the yard as long as I am home. A water dish is always out and available. We do have a cat who free ranges around the house, but she tends to make herself scarce when other dogs are in the house.

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.

Mark B.
“Hi, Mark has House and pet sat for us several times. He is awesome. Our dog, Sadie loves him and he takes incredible care of her. She is older and needs a little extra attention and he meets hers and our every need. We had him stay at the house and watch her so she was more comfortable and he did a great job. He is very nice and very trustworthy. I highly recommend him to dog/house sit for anyone.”

Alex & Sarah S.
“Sarah and Alex were amazing with our dog. She's pretty shy and really just loves hanging out indoors, so we’re always a bit nervous leaving her with new people. But they made her feel right at home from the start. They sent us updates without us even having to ask, notes about how she was settling in and a bunch of pics of her napping by their window and getting all cozy on her blanket. They even asked us about her evening routine to make sure she stayed comfortable. We’ve already talked with them about our next trip. Couldn’t recommend them more!”
