About: Your pup must be respectful of cats please. I completely understand curiosity, just not stalking or chasing. I took so much care of our lab when she was 15 and had Cushings. I definitely have a sweet spot for senior pets. She has since crossed the 🌈. Max is our 5 yr old Husky/Lab mix and he's our sweet big boy. We have love for big and small dogs! We have a huge grassy 6 and 4 ft fenced in yard (we connected to our neighbors 4 ft fence - see pictures) and Max would seriously love a friend to play with or just chill with. My husband and I work from home so one of us will be home all the time. We usually go on a mid morning walk and an evening walk, weather permitting. My kids are 11 and 16 and adore animals. We have a cat, Freddy, who loves Max. We will love your pet like they were our own ♥️ My husband and I work from home full-time. Our dog has separation anxiety so one of us will be home when your pet is here! We have a 6 and 4 ft privacy fence, large grassy backyard. Max gets on the leather couch but not our fabric couch or bed. He doesn't ever try. We wake up early to feed Max at 7 so early mornings is a non issue in our house! We typically go on 2 short walks a day (15-20 min). We're a chill household.

“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! ☺️”

“Alex and Sarah are friendly, thoughtful dog sitters and I appreciated that they want to have a meet and greet before watching Smudge for the first time. They were flexible and communicative. We’ll definitely ask for their services in the future!”

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.
“My Golden Retriever puppy absolutely loved his doggy daycare time with Liz and her crew of animals. He came home exhausted and happy from the day's activities. Liz was great about sending photos and videos to keep me updated throughout the day. Won't hesitate to use her again in the future!”

“I had a great experience with Keeley and Ethen! I sent a last-minute request around 8–9 PM, they responded quickly, and I was able to drop her off the next morning. They were super kind, communicative, and sent pictures throughout the stay, which I really appreciated. This was for my 9-week-old puppy that I had only brought home three days earlier, so everything was still very new. She ended up being more vocal than expected and needed a little extra attention, so I was nervous leaving her. They handled her so well and made the whole process feel easy. Their home is nice, the area is great, and overall everything went smoothly. No complaints at all. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi! I’m a teacher with summers off, which means I have a flexible schedule, plenty of availability, and lots of patience for caring for pets. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m dependable, communicative, and calm — traits that help pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I understand how important it is to have peace of mind when trusting someone with your home and your pets, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m a full-time teacher with summers off, so I have a very flexible daytime schedule and can accommodate morning, midday, and evening visits. I plan my days intentionally to ensure pets receive reliable, unhurried care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced-in yard, which allows for safe outdoor breaks and supervised playtime. I also have a very friendly, well-socialized 5-year-old Golden Retriever who is gentle, calm, and used to being around other dogs. She does well with both playful and relaxed pets, and I always make sure introductions are slow and supervised to ensure everyone is comfortable.
“I recently moved to the Omaha area from the other side of the state knowing virtually no one, and I can’t say how thankful I am to have selected Katie and Brandt from all of the options of pet sitters around me. We were so difficult at the beginning with some various needs/scheduling/etc and they were nothing short of warm and understanding. They are so welcoming and amazing to work with. My dog LOVES going to their home and basically forgets I exist when he’s there. I have a high energy breed and I can tell that they truly take the time to play with him and he is always just so so so happy when I pick him up. I can’t rave enough how much I truly enjoy Katie and Brandt and their care of my dog, I can tell they love him and care for him as if he’s their own.”

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 am a student so I have plenty of time! Specially on weekends. 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

“Brad and his family are great. Brad sent videos and photos of our dog playing hard with his dog. They were a great match. Brad is super easy to work with even when I messed up the dates on the app. If you are looking for a fun play date for your dog, this is the place to go.”

“Darcy and her family did an AMAZING job with Nova. They truly treated Nova as their own, I knew she was in great care as soon as we got there. Nova warmed up instantly to them (she has bad anxiety) which was a great sign that she felt comfortable. I will definitely be returning to Darcy and Anney and the rest of their family. THANK YOU!!♥️”
