“I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Kelsey! From the moment we met, it was clear how much they truly love and understand dogs. I immediately felt comfortable, and I got regular updates with photos that put my mind completely at ease. Communication was excellent — quick responses, detailed updates, and genuine care in every message. Kelsey went above and beyond, making sure my two high energy doodles were happy and comfortable the entire stay. Definitely recommend.”
“First overnight for our puppy with Ruby and her family! As with the last time Cusco spent time at Ruby’s home, he got so much love, attention, and playtime. I received many photos and videos while we were away, always making us feel comfortable and giving updates! I know Cusco is already looking forward to going back :) thank you, Ruby!”
“Grant is a fantastic caregiver for any doggy but esp mine. Ive got a great dog (husky mix, good temperament, great on walks, mellow, polite, no potty mistakes, doesnt destroy anything) and I struggle to let people spend time with her unless Im confident the person can maintain the same "rules, boundaries and limitations" that I (try to) do. (i.e., dont disrupt the freakin miracle) So, the big takeaways from my experience boarding the doggy with Grant: Grant communicates very well with his clients (texts and pics/videos), clearly created some kind of relationship with my doggy (totally relaxed, responded to Grant's voice), and has the type of property and pack where you know your dog is loving life (even if it upsets you that Grant would send you evidence that your dog can have such a good time without you). Most importantly to me, while my doggy was happy to see me when I picked her up (bc she's a good girl!), she was not particularly interested to leave bc she wanted to nose her new bestie from Grant's pack. So positive for me to know that she was safe and see she was having fun.”
“Jennifer and family were great!! I think they went above and beyond to care for our dog Chewie while we were out of town for Thanksgiving. I would highly recommend her and will book her again when needed!! Thanks Jennifer💕”
“This was my first time using Rover, so I was a little anxious about leaving Bentley with someone I didn’t know. She really helped ease my worries from the start. She even let me stop by earlier in the week to meet her and make sure it would be a good fit, which I really appreciated. Bentley stayed with her for three nights and seemed to do great! She kept me updated with photos during his stay, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. He came home happy and seemed to have been well cared for. I’m so glad we found her and would definitely have Bentley stay with her again!”
“Sarah (and her wonderful daughters) went above and beyond caring for our fur babies! Leaving your pets behind is always tough, but Sarah made it completely worry-free. She kept us in the loop the entire time and sent the sweetest photo updates that totally brightened our days. Our dogs absolutely adored her and her family—they looked so incredibly happy, relaxed, and loved in every single picture. It is such a relief to find a sitter who truly treats your pets like their own. Sarah is reliable, communicative, and exceptionally kind. We cannot recommend her highly effects and will definitely be booking her again!”
“This was my very first time using the Rover app, and Nicole completely exceeded my expectations! I was super nervous to leave my dog, but Nicole was so professional, warm, and attentive. The daily updates, photos & videos showed my dog was happy, fed, and perfectly cared for. If you want absolute peace of mind while you travel, hire her! 🫱🏼🫲🏽😊 I’ll definitely be bringing Milo back & I’m glad the boys got along so well 🥰!!”
“My dog Shimmer had a great time being able to play with dogs her size. She was happy when I picked her up which was a huge relief. Leslie was very inviting open to any questions. We will definitely book again!”
“It was my first time leaving my pup with another family ever and they made me feel so at ease with updates and pictures daily. They were so calm even though my pup was very nervous at first. I HIGHLY recommend trusting them with your pup and I would definitely contact them again for boarding my pup.”
“This was the first time leaving my dog with anyone other than my daughter. I think it was harder on me than it was on my dog :) Haley completely understood that and reassured me throughout the stay about how Kody was doing. I have a very nervous pup, and Haley gave him love when he needed it and space when he needed it. I also got pictures throughout the stay, which was so sweet. She even took him on a walk to help calm his nerves. The most important thing for me was finding someone who understands my anxious dog. He was abandoned twice so he doesn't do well being left with new people. Haley was perfect for Kody.”
“Allie and her family were wonderful! I really appreciated the daily photos of Stella while we were gone. The communication was great. You can tell they love the doggos they care for, which makes it easier to leave your dog behind.”
“Lisa was great! Heidi was exhausted after a weekend with her and Willow. She sent me photo and video updates of her which made me feel more comfortable knowing that Heidi was enjoying her stay. You can really tell how devoted Lisa is to taking care of pets. Also, Willow is the sweetest and Heidi loved running around with her. I would definitely recommend Lisa to watch any of your family members while you’re away 😊”
“Jennifer was a pleasure to work with. She was always quick to respond and she sent lots of photos of our boy having fun with her pup. He came home exhausted, that's a good thing! We will certainly use Jennifer again! Thank you again Jennifer!”
“Irvine and Susan took great care of my fur baby. Great home and yard for my Yorkie. Kept me updated and flexible when we were delayed coming back. Would recommend to friends and family.”
“Tracy was awesome! She sent me videos and pictures of my baby everyday and gave me a daily update as to how he was doing which put me at ease while on vacation knowing he was well taken care of. He even made some friends! We will definitely be using Tracy and Alex in the near future.”
“Ana was very attentive to Daisy and sent photos that let us see how she was doing. She was comfortable with Ana and her family and dogs. I would highly recommend Ana if you want to feel at ease leaving your dog with her!”
“Lilly seemed to have a great stay with Samantha. Lilly had fun running around, chasing tennis balls and a frisbee and even decided to take a plunge in the kiddie pool. Samantha was great about sending us updates and pictures of Lilly’s stay. Thank you Samantha for everything!”
“Gregory was absolutely amazing with my dog. He kept me well informed of how my dog was doing throughout the visit and provided me photos that reassured me that my dog was happy and having a great time. Gregory was also very mindful of my dogs special needs and always took those into consideration while he was watching him. I will definitely be boarding my pup with him again. It was a wonderful experience for both of us and I’m grateful to have found such an amazing and caring Dog Sitter.”
“Here’s a warm, five-star review you can leave for Hank’s boarding: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Michelle took wonderful care of Hank while we were away. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us great peace of mind. Hank came home happy, healthy, and well cared for. Michelle was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves dogs. We truly appreciate the excellent care she provided and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommended!”

Tracy was a great option for boarding our small dog. She coordinated a time to visit with her prior to the dates so we could meet her and for our dog to meet her dog. Throughout the stay Tracy sent us many photos and had great communication. We will use Tracy again soon.
Kandra service was excellent!!! She is a kind caring person who my boy instantly liked. The property was clean with large yards for big dogs. She kept me informed on how he was doing with pictures. Capone bonded with her family as her children also helped care for him while playing ball. Capone is a 110lb pitbull mastiff bread. Hes a rescue, who rescued me. He’s a very big dog and was well taken care of. Kandra cared for him as if he were her own and that means the world to me.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Lincoln on Rover is $42.18 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 1,614 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Lincoln. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Lincoln sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Lincoln landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Lincoln home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Lincoln.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Lincoln sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
