Came home to a happy pup who had full bowl of food and water and all is well! Short notice and last minute request as I forgot to book until a few days before my trip and Mya came through!

Kristin did a great job watching Charlotte! She sent updates a couple times a day and was great at communicating any issues. We already have her booked for our next getaway.

Kalob was very professional, courteous and punctual too. Scout enjoyed his time with Kalob and he even brought Scout treats! I would definitely have him watch Scout again!

Jessica is amazing! She is punctual and super nice. Scout immediately took a liking to her and she watched Scout on really short notice when his original sitter was sick. She is great!!

Marie took such good care of Hunter! She took him on lots of walks and made sure he got the attention he needed. Marie clearly likes dogs and I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’ve been dog sitting since middle and high school, gaining years of experience with different breeds, personalities, and routines. I also have experience with horses and am comfortable feeding, grooming, and caring for them. I’m attentive to each pet's individual needs, whether that means sticking to a consistent schedule, providing plenty of play and exercise, or offering calm companionship. I take pride in providing reliable, loving care so pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away! I am currently beginning my clinical experience for occupational therapy, so my availability is primarily Friday mornings and evenings, weekends, and Monday mornings through the end of March. After that, I will be working part-time at an outpatient clinic, which will allow for much more flexible weekday availability. I’m happy to discuss specific scheduling needs and find a time that works best for you and your pet! I care for pets in their own homes so they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I stick to their usual routines like feeding, walks, playtime, and litter box or yard care, and follow any special instructions you provide. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and preferences, whether they’re playful, shy, or just want some quiet company. I also treat your home with respect, keeping things tidy and secure while you’re away, and I’m happy to provide updates so you can relax knowing your pet is well cared for.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I was 10 years old, and caring for them has always been my greatest joy. I was blessed to share 14 wonderful years with my last fur baby, and through that time, I truly understood how hard it is to leave your beloved pet behind when traveling. The biggest worry was always whether they were getting the same love and attention I gave them every day. That’s why I started dog sitting—to give pet parents the peace of mind that their babies are in the best hands. Since I work from home, I can provide constant care, affection, and companionship, ensuring your pup feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. With me, they’ll get all the attention they need, so you can fully relax knowing they’re in a home filled with love! I work full time from home, so I can spend all day and night with your fur baby! My work is very flexible, so I am able to do walks and playtime whenever we want to! I have a 6ft fully fenced back yard great for running and playing! I also have a doggie door so they can go in and out whenever they want! I have dog beds in the home for use, if you do crate, no problem, just bring along their crate and we will accommodate whatever they are used to doing at home!

About: I have been dog sitting for neighbors and friends for the last 5 years. I also have walked dogs while sitting, and done overnight stays with them. I truly love being with dogs and caring for them. I am currently a sophomore college student and have some days off of class. I love being active and truly love spending time with dogs, so I figured dog walking on my days off was the perfect way to spend them! If I was at a client’s home I would ensure the safety of their home and dog as my first priority. I would provide exceptional care to their dog, and also make sure to not disrupt anything within their home. I would take the dog out on a leash if there is no fenced in yard and make sure it had plenty of food and water.

About: I was in 4-h for around 7-10 years and showed horses, cattle, rabbits, cats and dogs. I lived on a farm so I am good with all sized pets. I have a deep passion for animals and personally have 2 dogs a chocolate lab and siberian husky, and 2 cats a orange tabby and grey maine coon. I am a full-time college student so my schedule is pretty open all week and the weekends besides church Sunday mornings and I work Saturday nights 5-11. I am very responsible and have lots of experience pet-sitting. I strive to do my best job for all my cliets while also being respectful of their home.

Olivia did a wonderful job of taking care of my animals and my home. She communicated with me while I was on my trip and gave me confidence that she was taking good care of my fur babies. It made my trip all the more enjoyable, knowing that my three cats and two dogs were happy and secure in their home environment.

Alaina had great communication with us before our trip, during and on our return. She was always on time and very responsive. We hope to be able to utilize Alaina more often!

Dom is awesome! They had a very calm demeanor, we felt instantly comfortable with them, & so did Maven :). They obviously care a lot about the work they do with animals. They were great at communication, sent pics & updates. We were so thankful for the peace of mind of knowing our doggo was being well take care of & in good hands while we were away. A very positive first Rover experience, we hope to see them again!

About: Ever since I could remember I’ve had no less than 6 pets in my home. Growing up i’ve already assumed the role of pet care taker. When I was little I used to sleep on the floor with my old german shorthair when storms came so he had a buddy to be with. Moving forward, I recently moved to Lincoln as a UNL student and my space couldn’t fit all pets back home. I believe pets are truly a joyous blessing, and sitting would not only ease the mind of the owner, but allow small pockets of joy throughout my week/weekend! Pet sitting fits into my daily routine because my academic day starts around 9:30am MWF and I have multiple lunch breaks. During the time I am in the research lab, there are 2hour breaks that I am available to stop by a home and give some pets and love as well as potty breaks. What’s most beneficial is that my days end around 3:30pm. If the owner wants to get drinks after work, relax, shop, I am available every night to pet sit and potty. Weekends are very open before and after church on Sundays when my family goes on vacation, it is super important to us who watches our animals –we treat maybe better than we treat ourselves. Som qualities I bring while pet sitting is alert attention -one of my cats passed away while we were away and our pet sitter was alert and kept us up to date to entire time, i would like to reciprocate that kindness– constant love and affection, respect for boundaries in the home and those shown by the pet–i am here to be helpful so respect all around is a 100% guarantee!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats my entire life and have cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. This allows me to not only recognize the varied needs and behaviors that different pets may have, but also and be able to sympathize and cater to those specific needs and behaviors while creating bonds with each animal. I have availability for drop in visits and walks Monday-Friday at 10am and boarding (in my home) Friday-Sunday. I also offer doggy park field trips on Fridays at 11:30. I offer pet care (in clients home, or mine for dog friendly pups) whether it’s feeding, bathing, or stimulating playtime and long walks. I have reliable means of transportation and enjoy going to the dog park or on other fun adventures with the pups. I also have a friendly 10 year old tibetan spaniel that loves to tag along if you’re dog enjoys company from furry friends, however I am very understanding of the fact that dogs have different social behaviors and that some dogs require one on one time. A pet in my care will never be put into a situation that puts their or anyone else’s safety at risk.

About: Love our pets like we do the children. Always up to date on vet visits and shots, just like the children. lol Have always been pet owners and know they will love us unconditionally. We work full time Monday thru Friday, from 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Dogs will be active outside before we leave for work, during our lunch hour and after 3:30 We have a fenced in back yard for the dogs to run freely. We have 2 large kennels if needed, otherwise they will be allowed to roam freely in the house, when we are not home. Dogs are used to routine and schedules, so we try and keep everyone on or close to what their "normal" routine/schedule is.
