About: Hi! My name is Robert, and I’m a proud dad of two little ones and a dog dad to two pit bull mixes. I’ve been an animal lover my entire life, but dogs have always had a special place in my heart. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every dog with the same care, patience, and attention I give my own. Whether your pup needs a walk, a drop-in visit for feeding and playtime, or boarding (when it’s the right fit), I’m here to help. I have a very flexible schedule and am available on both weekdays and weekends to accommodate your needs. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member. Please feel free to reach out with any questions—I look forward to hearing from you! My schedule is flexible so I’ll have plenty of time to look after your animals or pups. Whether it’s a walk or drop in visit, they’ll be taken care of. I’ll treat your animals with the utmost care. I can follow all instructions if your pet has special needs. Whether your pet is big or small.
“Tatjana was really fantastic with my dog. She took her time to get to know my dog during the meet and greet. She has an understanding of dogs and what they need. Definitely recommend her and will be using her services again. Thank you so much.”

“Ella has been so helpful with our dog while my partner was out of the country and I was stuck working in office all week. She was always on time, provided pictures and feedback on the visit and more importantly, our little girl seems to love her company. A++++”

About: I’ve cared for dogs since age 12, especially high energy breeds. I raised 2 puppies from early stages, gaining experience in activity, structure, attention, and consistency. Pet care fits naturally into my daily life because I work from home, allowing constant attention. I only leave for the gym and essential errands. Being very attentive. I keep pets on their normal routine, and make sure they have fresh food, water, exercise, and attention. For safety, I keep doors and gates secure, remove anything they could get into, and supervise them to help prevent accidents or injuries.
“Ruzilia walked our dog, Nico, twice this week, and I am very grateful for her help. She was caring and genuinely considerate of his wellbeing, especially with the heat we have been having. She paid close attention to the temperature and was cautious about hot asphalt, which I really appreciate since Nico is an older dog. He came back from both walks comfortable and happy.”

“Laura was amazing! I have a high energy puppy, she took her for a nice walk. My puppy came back tired & mellow for the rest of the day! Will use her again! Puppy loved her too!”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, including different breeds, personalities, ages, energy levels, and individual needs. For dogs, I’ve cared for a variety of breeds and temperaments through walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting. While living in Australia, I spent two months walking and house sitting an Alaskan Malamute, which gave me valuable experience handling a large, high-energy dog with patience and confidence. I’ve also cared for dogs belonging to friends and family and enjoy adapting care to each dog’s personality and activity level. Cats have been a major part of my life for over a decade. I have three rescue cats of my own, all former strays, and I regularly foster cats and kittens. Through my own pets and fostering, I’ve cared for cats ranging from bottle babies to seniors, as well as shy, fearful, and formerly feral cats. I’m also comfortable caring for cats with special medical or dietary needs, including administering oral or topical medications, using syringes for feeding or medication, and following specific feeding and care routines. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, and litter box habits because I know that small changes can be important. I also understand how important it is to follow each pet’s normal routine and their owner’s instructions carefully. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, overnight care, medication, playtime, or simply some quiet companionship, I tailor my care to their individual personality and needs. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving their family peace of mind. Pet care is my full-time work, so I’m able to dedicate my days to providing attentive and reliable care for the pets I look after. I structure my schedule around my clients’ routines, whether that means morning walks, midday drop-ins, evening visits, or overnight stays. Because pet care is my primary focus, I have the flexibility to give each pet plenty of individual attention rather than trying to fit visits around another job or busy work schedule. I’m also able to accommodate longer stays and, when my schedule allows, last-minute bookings. I truly enjoy making pet care part of my everyday life, and I’m grateful to have the opportunity to give pets the companionship, exercise, and care they need while their families are away. When I care for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is to ensure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved; just as they would if you were home. During house sitting, I stay in your home and closely follow your pet’s usual routine, whether that includes feeding, medication, walks, playtime, or quiet companionship. I also keep your home clean, secure, and tidy, watering plants if needed, and making sure everything is just as you left it. For drop-in visits, I provide personalized care and attention, including feeding, fresh water, cleaning litter boxes or backyard potty breaks, administering medications when required, and spending quality time playing or cuddling. Whatever your pet needs to feel relaxed and cared for while you're away. When it comes to dog walking, safety is always my number one priority. I use secure harnesses or leashes, avoid busy or high-traffic areas, stay alert to other animals and potential distractions, and tailor each walk to your dog’s pace and energy level. I never walk dogs off-leash and always ensure they’re hydrated and comfortable before and after each outing. Plus, I send regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

“I can't recommend Catarina enough. She's incredibly conscientious — always on time, always communicative, and it's clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she walks. My dog Hazel absolutely adores her, which says everything. If you want someone reliable, dependable, and truly great with animals, look no further.”


“McKenzie is so kind and reliable! She was very communicative with us throughout which we really appreciated. Our dog obviously loved her too because he had no problem cuddling on her lap during her visits! :-) We will absolutely request McKensize again!”

“I have only been using Cay for a couple of weeks now, but so far she has been very consistent and when one of us have something that comes up, we rearrange our schedules together. My dog, Wrangler, loves her and looks so forward to his walks with Cay! Several neighbors have commented how beautifully they walk together. Thank you, Cay!”

About: There hasn’t been a time in my life when I didn’t have an animal by my side. I have extensive, hands-on experience owning, fostering, sitting, and walking all kinds of animals. I truly understand that every pet has a unique personality and set of needs, and I pride myself on stepping in to provide seamless, consistent care—picking up exactly where you left off. Whether your pet needs high-energy play, strict medical/routine management, or just gentle, attentive companionship, I am here to provide peace of mind. Whatever you and your animals need, I'm your girl! I work full-time providing home care for adults with mental health and developmental disabilities. Because my shifts can be non-traditional, clear communication is my absolute priority to ensure your pet's schedule is perfectly maintained. I keep my Rover calendar strictly updated with my work hours so you always know my exact availability before booking. If an 8-hour shift overlaps with your needed care times, we will discuss a seamless game plan beforehand to ensure your pet is fully looked after. Outside of my shift hours, I put focus on pet care. My background makes me highly routine-oriented, meaning I am incredibly reliable when it comes to early morning check-ins, evening walks, or overnight sitting blocks. I believe every pet deserves the perfect fit. If my work schedule ever conflicts with what your pet needs, I will be completely transparent upfront so you can find the best match for them. If we are a match, you can count on absolute reliability, consistent updates, and a dedicated sitter who treats your schedule—and your pet—with total respect! Whether I am caring for your pet in the comfort of your own home or hosting them with me, safety and open communication are my absolute top priorities. I treat your home and your pets with the utmost respect, ensuring a secure, low-stress environment. I strictly follow your household rules, feeding schedules, and medication timelines. Keeping their environment consistent prevents anxiety while you are away.
About: I have loved animals since I was small, volunteered at animal rescues since I was a child, and have my own menagerie of furry critters. I worked at a horse stable for over 7 years and owned a horse so also am knowledgeable about horses, donkeys, goats, chickens in addition to cat and dogs. I have trained all my dogs for over 15 years so understand how to kindly guide dogs. I have given medicine in all forms and am well versed in pet home first aid. I am currently working full time but have a flexible schedule so can usually accommodate any time of day with some notice. I walk my own dogs twice a day and live in an area with 5 parks. I take my dogs to the park frequently too so can easily add another dog to the mix. I have a fenced yard and a large pet filled home. My yard has a patio cover and a fan to keep everyone comfortable. For well behaved dogs who are cat savvy and non destructive, I can offer them to come inside and hang out on the couches. For other people’s homes, I love getting to know pets and will gladly try to make them as comfortable as possible. I’m happy to play with their favorite toys and give plenty of pets.
About: In our humble abode, your pet will find themselves entranced with our enticing love and care. Each pet is treated with the utmost respect, along with fun toys and plenty of walks. My son, who is currently in college studying to become a veterinarian, will be readily available to assist at home. Concurrent with his schooling, Alex is licensed in Pet CPR and First Aid. If necessary, we both are experienced with administering medicine to different kinds of animals. Throughout my life, I gained experience handling cats, dogs, rabbits, reptiles, and farm animals. Our Current Residents; are a rambunctious, fun-loving, ready-to-play, five-year-old Sheprador (Dio), and 4 welcoming cats (Misty, Chestnut, Buttercup, Milkshake). For the safety of all animals in our wild kingdom, all animals must be up to date on their shots and are non-aggressive toward other pets. Unneutered males are welcome, however, we do not accept females in heat. Our schedules are very flexible, although we do request a one-day notice of cancellation. We look forward to meeting you and your fuzzy child. Welcome to the jungle, your pet is in good hands! Due to Covid, I am currently working at home, which allows me to have plenty of time to cater to your pet's various wants and needs. I have a fenced-in backyard so your fuzzy child will have plenty of room to roam. I can easily provide a crate if needed. My son and I are fully Covid vaccinated. We adhere to Covid guidelines for the safety of ourselves and future clients. We will have plenty of time to play with and take care of your pups! Both of us will be readily available for boarding, doggy daycare, walks, drop-in visits, and housesitting on weekends and weekdays. For drop-in visits, housesitting, and walks we are willing to watch, care for, and walk any pet including reptiles, amphibians, fish, etc. Any medication that the pet requires can be administered during any visit. In our home, pets are treated like royalty. Whether it is for attention and play, or food and water, all needs will be met with a smile. We have a fenced-in backyard with plenty of room to romp or do zoomies. Upon guests' approval, we may take dogs on a walk to our neighborhood park. Specific needs, such as medicine must be provided and specified in detail. All our animals are current on their shots and we require our guest animals to be as well.

We plan to meet and exceed all the needs of the pet, which includes necessities, plenty of playtime, and walks. For housesitting, we can also water plants and bring in mail, if need be.

“Jarrod did a great job walking my Alaskan Malamutes. He was an attentive and active listener, learning their commands and walking style. He offered positive feedback on the walking experience. Both dogs came back happy and relaxed. I look forward to continuing to work with Jarrod.”

“Isabella treats my animals like her own! She is so communicative & transparent. I have a >100lb dog and I have never felt so comfortable leaving him with someone before! Will be going to Isabella with all my animal needs in the future!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Lincoln
I booked Robert for an hour walk with my pitbull. My baby was instantly comfortable with him and happy to go on a walk alone with him. He’s a strong dog that pulls and Robert was able to handle him just fine. When they came back I could tell he got a good workout and was comfortable with him. I will definitely be using Robert on a regular basis.

I have only been using Cay for a couple of weeks now, but so far she has been very consistent and when one of us have something that comes up, we rearrange our schedules together. My dog, Wrangler, loves her and looks so forward to his walks with Cay! Several neighbors have commented how beautifully they walk together. Thank you, Cay!

Chrystel walks Wrangler three times a week. She is punctual, dependable and flexible. Wrangler has a wonderful time on his walks and always looks forward to seeing his new best friend, Christel. It is a wonderful experience for Wrangler and we’re delighted to have Christel as part of our little family.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Lincoln. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Lincoln.

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 walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lincoln. On Rover:
- 94% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, 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 use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
