“Kynnedy completed some drop in visits while I was out of town. She completed the care and feeding for my dogs. She played with them and gave them attentions. She took lots of photos.”


“Amy did such a good job with my cats. They looked well taken care of and always answered when I asked questions or needed reassurance that they were happy. Thanks again for doing such a great job!”

“Mikaela had stepped in and helped me with letting my two dogs out when I lost my regular person. We had a meet and greet at the dog park before the service began and another one at the house. She is very responsible and reliable, plus the pups love her.”


“Kristin came by for an hour to meet us and the fur babies and learn our routines ahead of a 1-week vacation. It was going to be our first time away from our new pups and Kristin made us comfortable and it seemed like a good fit right away. Since then she's helped us numerous times and it's always been great. Thanks, Kristin!”

About: I love being around animals! I got my first dog when I was 15 and trained him myself. Then I have dogs sat for countless families. I have cared for puppies to senior dogs and of all kinds. I work part time and go to college full time, but I have lots of time in my schedule for pups. I am avalible in the afternoons and on weekends I do not have a fenced in yard, but I have a yard and I love to go for walks and be outside with your dog! I can crate them if preferred or accommodate to many situations.

About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I started watching over and caring for friends and family’s’ dogs since I was 10. Dogs are my all time fav and I can’t wait to care for yours! I am currently a full-time college students, also involved in extracurriculars but still have plenty of time to care your pups! Im available for walks MWF from 7am-10am; TTh from 7am-1pm. I can also make evening drop ins work through conversation! I am super flexible on care in your home. I can serve to whatever your dog needs whether that’s some play time or needing to be fed!
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, having grown up on a farm where caring for them was part of everyday life. That experience gave me a strong understanding of animal behavior and the importance of patience, consistency, and kindness. Over the years, I’ve cared for many dogs and cats, both my own and those belonging to friends and family. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or simply providing comfort and companionship, I take pride in creating a safe and loving environment for every pet. My background has taught me to adapt to each animal’s unique personality and needs. From energetic puppies to calm senior pets, I ensure every furry friend receives the attention, affection, and reliability they deserve. I work a standard 8–5 p.m. schedule Monday through Friday, but my mornings, evenings, and weekends are wide open for pet care. I love starting or ending my day with walks, playtime, and some quality time with furry friends — it’s the best part of my routine! I’m reliable, communicative, and always make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need, no matter what time of day. Whether it’s an evening walk, weekend stay, or a quick drop-in visit, I’m happy to make it work for you and your pets. When caring for pets, my top priority is always their safety, comfort, and happiness. I take the time to get to know each pet’s routine, personality, and preferences so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free — whether I’m in my home or yours. In your home, I make sure pets stay in their normal environment and routine, with plenty of love, play, and supervision. I pay close attention to details like feeding instructions, leash safety, and any special needs or medications. If pets are with me, they’ll enjoy a calm, loving atmosphere with lots of attention and affection. I treat every dog and cat as if they were my own — with patience, kindness, and respect. You can always expect regular updates, photos, and open communication so you feel completely at ease while you’re away.
“Abigail always does so great with Pawley! He is shy at first with people he doesn’t see all the time, and she always makes sure to take the time to make him comfortable. We love being able to rely on her.”

“Eileen did drop in visits for us while our pup was 2-3 months old 1-2x a day for a month or so. She was patient, caring, and flexible with last minute schedule changes. Our pup loved having her over and enjoyed spending time with her. I would absolutely recommend her for any pet sitting needs!! She’s amazing!”

About: When I was growing up babysit for my brothers bestfriend. I would have to walk the dogs and it got her energy out as well. :) I have 5 cats and I have to change their litter daily, feed them twice a day , give them love and attention. I will go to my grandmas and walk her dog for her. I treat them as I they are mine. I love animals no matter how big or small. And I follow the instructions from the orders of the times they want to feed them.
About: Hello, my name is Tracy and I'm a total dog person! Although I can't have a furry friend at home due to my living situation, I volunteer as a dog walker at the local capital humane society here in town. I've had the pleasure of working with dogs of all breeds and sizes, from tiny Chihuahuas to massive Great Danes! There's nothing better than seeing their tails wag and spoiling them with pets and treats. My dream is to own a large piece of land where I can provide a forever home for senior and handicapped animals. Until then, I'll continue to volunteer and do my part to help these amazing companions! I currently work full time and have a part time job on top of that i also volunteer 1 day a week at the capital humane society as a dog walker! i enjoy taking walks around the park and or neighborhood, after our long walk then we would go to the dog park and meet all our other furry friends!

About: I love animals! I have grown up with dogs, specifically, my whole life. During college, I dog-sat for many families, one family with two Newfoundlands for three years. So I am also very capable of working with big dogs with big personalities! I do walks, playtime, and overnight stays or check-ins. I am a intern at Walking Mountains. I currently get Monday and Tuesday off. My work schedule varies from week to week. Because of that, I have a lot of flexibility to meet your needs! I am currently only offering care at your homes. I am willing to take care of all pet needs as needed, and more than willing to communicate with you while you are away about how they are doing!
About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for pets, from childhood dogs and cats to hands-on work in veterinary clinics. For the past six years, I’ve worked in small animal vet clinics as a kennel technician and veterinary assistant, where I’ve cared for pets with a wide range of personalities and needs. I’m experienced in safely and sensitively handling pets who may be anxious, reactive, or uncomfortable with strangers. I’m comfortable administering medications, including insulin injections for diabetic pets, and I have experience caring for senior pets, pets with chronic conditions, those recovering from surgery, and pets on special diets. I also have experience with puppies and can reinforce basic training such as house-training and routine consistency. My clinical background has trained me to read pet body language, recognize stress signals early, and prevent issues before they escalate. You can expect consistent communication and detailed updates while your pet is in my care. I treat every pet like my own while maintaining professional standards, with a strong focus on safety, comfort, and trust, for both pets and their owners. I am a full-time college student. However, my class schedule allows for plenty of flexibility, and studying can happen anywhere. Your furry friends always fit into my schedule! I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and any special instructions. With my veterinary clinic experience, I prioritize safety by monitoring behavior and health, securing doors and leashes, and preventing stress or hazards. I respect my clients’ homes and provide consistent communication and detailed updates so you can feel confident while you’re away.

About: Have experience with both cats and dogs through owning and helping through the years. I currently have five cats and three dogs of my own so I am very familiar with feeding schedules, cleanings, playtimes, monitoring behaviors, and making sure everyone feels safe in their own environment. I’m comfortable caring for different pets of different sizes and energy levels, including walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and giving them attention and companionship while their owners are away.
About: I’ve been around large and small animals alike my entire life. I grew up on a farm where I cared for (and showed)horses, sheep, dogs, cats, a turtle, guinea pigs, and even (had) gerbils. I was active in 4H, FFA, county and state fairs where I showed my prize Appaloosa horse. During my college years I worked at a locally owned pet store in Kearney, Nebraska, which gave me even more hands on experience especially with a variety of small animals like snakes, birds and rabbits. I’ve always had a dog in my life (and cats) until recently when my Mastiff of 14 years passed away. My Mastiff was a rescue with extensive behavioral issues at first; however, after a year and a half of steady, consistent daily work and training, I am proud to say he passed the temperament test, did a complete 180, and I began taking him into nursing homes, where he was absolutely adored. So in short, I’ve worked with some challenging pet personalities but it makes it all worthwhile knowing I improved that animals life and can take the skills I’ve obtained and pay it forward. I also have extensive experience taking care of senior dogs and am quite familiar with the extra care they require whether that be assisting them up or down stairs, making sure there is plenty or traction where they’re walking, taking extra stops to rest on walks, and overall recognizing when they’re in pain or or not acting like themselves and adjusting any activities accordingly, and ensuring the owner is aware of any changes in personality, eating, drinking and/or potty breaks. Hello! I work part time remotely, so my schedule is very flexible which leaves me plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, playtime, feeding, and anything else your furry friend(s) need while you’re away! I have 2 cats currently so I would prefer to do any daycare at the client’s home, plus, I feel it’s less stressful on the animal if they’re in their own environment. However, in a pinch, I could certainly arrange to do boarding in my home as I have a large fenced in backyard and my cats could easily be placed in another area of my home. I also have a large (Great Dane size) crate from my beloved dog who passed recently, if a crate would be necessary. Whatever it takes to make your furbaby happy and as comfortable as can be, I’ll make sure it happens! When I am at your home, I’ll make it so that you don’t even know I was there aside from a tired pet(s). Trust and integrity is crucial when letting a stranger not only care for your animals but be in the home, and I firmly believe im establishing that trust by respecting your home and your rules. I live in the south Lincoln area, I drive and own my own vehicle, so can be anywhere in the Lincoln area within about 20-30 minutes. Also, if there was an emergency of any kind I would be able to transport your pet to your closest Veterinarian or wherever need be to ensure his/her wellbeing.
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Woodlawn
Hannah’s communication was wonderful! My kitties were well taken care of. This was the first time that I had someone outside of family take care of them while I was away. I didn’t have any worries that they weren’t getting any attention or affection. I definitely will have Hannah on the top of my list to contact the next time I have to be gone for a few days.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter 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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
