“Abby did an excellent job caring caring for my little dog. She treated him with love and kindness and followed my directions to a T. She sent pictures and notes about how their day went. I will definitely ask her again.”


“Eric is an outstanding dog and house sitter! He took wonderful care of our Boston Terrier, who is sometimes anxious around new people. She became his new best friend! Eric provided excellent communication, followed our instructions and showered our dog with attention. I enjoyed my vacation knowing our beloved pup was having a great time. I highly recommend Eric and will definitely contact him again!”


“Both kitties seemed to be unfazed by my absence, which speaks to Ashley's care and attention. I really appreciated the pics too! I am very grateful to have found someone that I can rely on while away from home.”


“Leanne went above and beyond for our puppy, not just on regular days, but also when he was sick. I don’t know what we would’ve done without you, Leanne - thank you so much for everything!!”


“Ella did a wonderful job house sitting with my Chloe! Chloe gets horrible anxiety when not with me and at 14 years old I didn’t want to risk boarding her when I had to go on a business trip. She did great with Ella! Ella sent pictures and videos and kept me updated throughout the trip. Such a relief! Will 1000% book Ella again!”


“Kayla is the best! Super responsive and flexible. One of our dogs is a big anxious boy (around 70 lbs) and she always knows how to keep him at ease. She is our go to sitter whenever we need one!”


“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!”


“Highly recommend!! Alaina was so great with our furs. She always stayed in communication, sending detailed updates and responding promptly. She sent lots of pics and made us feel so comfortable having her stay with our babies. Will absolutely use her in the future!”


About: I’m Elizabeth and this is my baby-boy Umbra, a 3yr old Australian Shepherd. I love dogs, grew up with them, and when it came to purchasing a home, thought about my future dogs first… no, seriously! We have a large, fenced yard with plenty of room for dogs to run and play. Just a block away, we have a lovely wooded area for afternoon walks. Experience - My husband Nathan and I have taken Puppy, Adolescence, and Obedience 1, 2, and 3 training through Greater Lincoln Obedience Club - I was an Assistant Instructor for Obedience 1 - Volunteer dog walker at the Capital Humane Society - I've completed Grooming courses 1 and 2 through Kenl Inn - Pet First Aid course through Kenl Inn - Pet Massage course through SCC continuing education Umbra's Story Umbra is a high-energy, working breed so we got him into dog sports! He loved Agility 1, 2, and 3 until the teeter totter became too scary. We switched over to Flyball and self-taught Dock Diving. Because of his health, we’ve swapped dog sports for trick and sniff training. To keep him active and social we frequent dog parks, Offleash Dog Bar, and dog friendly stores and restaurants. He comes with us everywhere he can, and we’ve taken vacations just for him! When Umbra was a pup, we noticed abnormalities with his eating patterns and stool. For a year, we worked closely with our vet and uncovered severe food allergies, gastroenteritis, and a vitamin deficiency. Thanks to a restricted diet including daily vitamins and probiotics his tummy is doing well! When he was neutered, hip laxity was discovered that would eventually lead to arthritic symptoms. To give him a pain free life as along as possible, we added another daily supplement, started weekly water therapy, and were instructed to administer a monthly subcutaneous shot (Nathan handles the needle). It was discovering his enlarged heart that put an end to dog sports, but he still lives a fulfilling life. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. My day is already structured to include a minimum of 3 exercise / play sessions a day for 30-60mins each. Umbra is well socialized and loves large and small dogs. He would love for your pup to visit! Your dog will receive plenty exercise and play, belly rubs, neighborhood walks, and approved outings and treats. We have toys, puzzle games, and snuffling and lick toys for them to engage with. If they need a contained break, we have crates and a playpen to block off larger spaces. You will receive lots of photos and the comfort of knowing your pet is well cared for. For dog's staying in their own home, just let me know their routine and any special needs.

“First time using rover and first time Dom watched one of our dogs. Dom is great at communicating and our dog Calvin loved him. Will definitely use in the future!!!”


“Ashlley and her husband did a wonderful job caring for my pets! My dog can be leery of strangers, especially unknown men, but he warmed to them both so quickly during the meet and greet, I knew he'd be in good hands. She was responsive and sent pics every day.”


“10 stars if I could!!! Kindra is a fantastic dog sitter! This is our first experience with Rover and when we contacted Kindra we met with her a few months before and a week before our trip. She was helpful by volunteering information when we didn’t even know what to ask. She stayed with our two big dogs as a house sitter as well. She stayed in touch each day and we felt totally confident having our pups at home with her. She even went the extra mile and shoveled our drive and sidewalk when there were 8 inches of snow. Our dogs were so happy and relaxed after a week with Kindra instead of stressed out after returning from a kennel. Thank you, Kindra!!!”

About: Ive taken care of animals since before I can remember. All pets are given all the love I have to offer. I’m very gentle with older pets and always do my best to make sure they’re comfortable and pampered. I've got more free time on my hands than I know what to do with; so it would be no problem at all to take care of your pets! I make sure pets get regularly taken out, as well as making sure they’re happy and fed. I also get a little silly and play with them for hours!

About: I have had animals my entire life! Mostly dogs that have lived well into their teens, but also cats. Most recently I had my dog Bella for over 12 years and the last 3 we traveled the country try between Seattle and Miami by car. She unfortunately passed due to cancer and not ready to own an animal, but still love having them around . I am great at playing with animals to keep them engaged and teaching commands. I also can accommodate animals to their needs if they need medicine or special assistance. I work from home for an agency based in Canada. This means that your animal wouldn’t need to be locked up all day if they stay at my house my flexible schedule also also allows me to add walks in the day and play time so your dog isn’t in a crate all day. I also have a yard big enough for throwing sticks for added fun! I do have a fenced in yard that would allow for your dog to run around. I also wouldn’t mind going to someone’s house if I needed to as well as I am mobile.

“Ella took care of our pets for a week. Upon first meeting her via the video chat, she was easy to communicate with and followed through on calling at the set up time to call. She also came in person to meet our pets and get the care run down on time. She was friendly and professional. She clearly communicated her schedule and plan for letting our dog out. She stayed at our home over the week and we came back to everything looking the same. The only thing I would have liked was a little quicker response to texts (initially it took a little longer than expected to her if she was available) and more frequent check-ins with pet pictures would have been nice. But otherwise we really appreciated her care of our pets and will check to see if she is available again in the future.”


About: I’ve taken care of every kind of dog and cat since I was 12. I have experience with crate training dogs and maintaining the commands that my client’s use with their dog/cat. I’m very flexible to my client’s needs and always want to exceed their expectations. I’m currently a full time student, so I’ll be available mostly on the weekends to dogsit/catsit. However, I can always work with both of our schedules to accommodate drop ins during the week! I live in an apartment in downtown Lincoln, so it’s not very ideal for pet sitting. I’ve dog sat in multiple families homes, and there hasn’t been any issues or complaints. If it’s over the weekends, I can spend more time caring for your fur baby, even if that involves spending the day or night there too!

“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 have taken care of all animals of many different sizes since I was very young. I love all animals and would be happy to help you out with yours! I also work at a vet clinic and have lots of experience. I am currently only working part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I am free nights and weekends as well. I have a very large backyard and a very friendly dog at my house. It is a very pet friendly house with two cats as well.

Elizabeth & Nathan S.
“I’ll be booking Elizabeth again and again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I have four dogs with very different needs, and Elizabeth handled them all with care, love, and professionalism. My senior dachshund requires daily medication for back pain and arthritis, plus close monitoring for anxiety and special feeding instructions. I also have two rambunctious 5-month-old dachshund puppies who aren't fully potty trained yet, so they need lots of supervision and trips outside. My cattle dog is pretty easygoing, but still part of the pack! Elizabeth took care of all of them for 8 days, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She sent me updates and photos every single day, which helped so much with my anxiety about leaving them. I felt completely at peace knowing they were in her care. It was clear from the beginning that she’s a true dog lover—she treated my pups like her own. The fact that she has experience caring for a dog with medical needs was a huge plus and gave me so much confidence that my senior dog would be in capable hands. I’m incredibly grateful for Elizabeth’s attention to detail, calm presence, and the genuine affection she showed my dogs. I already booked her again and will continue to do so anytime I need help. Highly, highly recommend!”

Nathan S.Star Sitter
“I lived with Nate for a few years, and that entire time he had his own dog named Bella that was just the happiest and sweetest dog ever. That’s a reflection in how Nate treated her and how much he loved her. Honestly, she was probably treated better than some people treat their kids. He’s going to love any pet he comes across during his time as a caregiver, and they’re going to love him just as much.”

Woods Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Angela is very knowledgeable, and has very useful tips if you ask. She took amazingly good care of our besties, and they already miss their new friend. She was also very patient and by the time we left, I was confident the pets would be happy, safe, and secure. Angela is now our go-to pet sitter, and I think the dogs are already excited for their next staycation!

Kristin is a great pet sitter! When she stays at our house we know our cat and two dogs will be well taken care of and we don’t have to worry about a thing. She always sends updates and pictures, which we greatly appreciate as we have a couple of high anxiety dogs! We will definitely call on Kristin again and would recommend her to others.

Alyvia was very good about communicating with me while I was gone and sending me pictures and videos of my sweet girl. She took my dog for rides and gave her special treats with my permission, she spoiled my girl which is exactly what I was looking for in a sitter. I could tell in the pictures and videos that my dog was comfortable and happy. If I ever need someone to watch my dog again Alyvia will always be my first choice.

Trish went absolutely above and beyond for our puppies! She was so caring and kind, they were so well taken care of. It was my first time leaving our dogs at home with someone and she did everything she could to relieve my stress. Already planning on booking her again for our next trip, she's fantastic!!!

Joy was an absolute, well, joy! She took such incredibly good care of Maggie, who can get anxious when we’re away. Maggie was so happy and calm when we returned from our trip and I could tell she had been well loved in our absence. Joy was a great communicator and took amazing photos of Mags throughout our trip to keep me updated. She took great care of the house, too, and even did laundry and vacuumed before she left!

Jordan did an amazing job taking care of our pups. They immediately felt comfortable with her, she found ways to help my one who gets depressed when we leave feel better, be happy, & eat. We felt very comfortable while we were away. We will definitely be using her again! Thank you
