“Lynn was so caring and loving to my dog. I could not have wished for someone more caring!!! Thank you for your information too it was timely and the photos were very appreciated. I would welcome her to care for Dakota again and will! Best caregiver Ever!”

“Robyn was amazing with our dog! She made going out of a town stress free knowing our dog was well taken care of. She sent us photos and updates and was very respectful of our home. Highly recommend and will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Amanda updated me each time when leaving and my cats felt comfortable (which is surprising because one of them is very shy/reserved). Their litter was scooped and my animals were taken care of food/water wise. I would definitely request Amanda again based off the pictures taken when checking up on my cats.”

“Marc’s relationship with my dogs continues to grow due to his kind and patient interactions with them. They are comfortable with him and it does my heart good to see that they like and trust him.”

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.

“My first Rover experience was wonderful. Ann had not problems with my scared foster. She communicated with me and was just wonderful. I’ll definitely book her again. I’m really happy with this whole Rover experience. Thank you Ann ❤️?”

About: I have had dogs most of my life and love to take care of them. I enjoy taking care of them and spending time with them. I have reference if needed due to most of my family and friends I have helped in the past. I have plenty of time between my job and normal life to help take care of pets. I have two dogs myself and they love company. I do have a fenced yard along with a cover patio for your pet to enjoy. My home is also pet friendly due to having two dogs of my own.
“Our two dogs always look forward for Keeley and Ethen’s visits! We particularly appreciate how responsive and accommodating Keeley and Ethen are. Most recently, our return flight got cancelled. We didn’t have a visit scheduled for that day but we shot Keeley a note and she was there first thing in the morning to take care of our furry babies. It meant a lot to us.”
“First time for a visit from Rick after our meet and greet with Millie. Rick is very detail oriented, asked about everything related to the care of my dog. We are looking forward to more visits in the future.”

“Amazing experience and I was so impressed with the pics and the updated. Hannah did everything that I asked and more. Her kids were a bonus for Harlie girl and she loved it!!! So happy to have this connection so close!”
About: Your home will be looked after as well as your fur kids. I am observant to a fault and very aware when something seems “off”. My schedule works around caring for your pet(s). I am your person. I tend to spend more time with the pet(s) than is expected or is probably known about. I do it for the love and always will. I want to know the pet(s) I am caring for so knowing his/her routine is going to be key. What is he/she allowed to do - go upstairs or downstairs, etc., or stay on main level…
About: I absolutely adore all animals. I currently have a 1 year old Chocolate Labradoodle, and have had many dogs in the past. I was raised on an acreage with various animals growing up ranging from cats/dogs to cattle and Buffalo! It was a chore as a kid to help with the animals around the acreage, so that's where my love began. I recently moved back home from Kansas, to an apartment in Omaha. I have many toys for your fur baby to play with for boarding requests and my complex has a dog park that I go to everyday! Im happy to come to your home if you prefer. Will cater to your needs the best I can while maintaining a part-time schedule. Thank you for taking the time to read! Hopefully I can meet your fur baby soon! I currently work full-time, so I try to fit my check ins in the evenings and the weekends. During the week, I take outside and feed in the morning and evening. No matter the service, I take care of animals as if they were my own! This doesn’t change whether it be a check ins or a boarding request
“Sophie has watched our two cats twice now and she's always taken good care of them, sends great photos and keeps the house tidy. I've never worried about them while gone. Quick to respond to booking requests.”

“Emily did a great job with our fur babies! She went above and beyond. Based on the pictures, I am pretty sure that the "kids" would have preferred for us to stay away longer! (She showered them with attention.) I would highly recommend Emily for your furry family members.”
