“Rebekka was amazing with my cat and dog. I could just tell by the photos she sent us how much they loved having her company. She went above and beyond with everything, especially communication. You can trust her with your fur babies!”
“We are so happy we had rebooked Laura to take care of our pups as well as our son’s two cats. Our pups were well taken care of and all communication while were gone were great. We will definitely be rebooking Laura again for our next trip.”
“Carla was absolutely wonderful with our kitty, Kiki! We were traveling last‑minute and were so nervous to leave her, but Carla eased all of our worries right away. She communicated constantly, sent thoughtful updates, and showed so much genuine care for Kiki. She went above and beyond—cleaned up litter, managed an ant situation, refreshed food and water, and made sure Kiki got tons of love and attention every visit. Kiki adored her, and we came home to a happy, relaxed cat. We are so grateful for her reliability, kindness, and attention to detail. We would 100% trust her with Kiki again. Highly recommend Carla!”
“Ella was reliable and communicative throughout the stay. She followed all instructions and took care of my cats while I was away. I appreciated receiving updates during my trip, and everything was handled as requested. I’d happily book again in the future!”
“I cannot say enough good things about my dog walker. He takes amazing care of my two big dogs — my little beasts — and handles them with confidence, calmness, and kindness. They absolutely adore him. He’s reliable, patient, and clearly experienced. I feel completely comfortable trusting him with my dogs, which is huge for me. Every walk is consistent, safe, and positive. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares about your pets and treats them like his own, he’s the one. Highly recommend!”
“Montana was really great with our two dogs Barry and Bonita. He went above and beyond for us. We will definitely be using him again. Great with communications and awesome, he did a few things we needed around the house. He even took Barry on walks and wasn't stressing about going a little over the time if it was past the 30-minute visits. Montana is definitely your go-to person for your fur babies.”

“Benjamin was great! It was our first time using Rover and using someone not referred to us. Benjamin was super easy to work with and very communicative. It was our first time leaving our kitty since we moved here and Benjamin was understanding to my nervousness of leaving her and completely reassured me through pictures and his reports. We'll definitely use his services again.”
“Jacob is very reliable and made sure my cats were getting the care they needed while I was away. This was my third time booking him and I will always look for him first next time I’m going away. He communicates well and shows care for my cats. One of my cats is very shy when there’s people around but he likes him.”
“Libbey was excellent! We have a senior cat so leaving her alone these days can make us nervous. Libbey was so attentive and sent such detailed accounts, we appreciated it all so much. Our girl was well taken care of and we’re so grateful for Libbey’s care!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs all my life since I was young and always found myself taking care for them for friends and family and as general clients. Ive done ear medication, injections and even drawn blood for heart worm tests for dogs when I shared my time at a veterinary clinic as an intern. I will be working part time and find myself very flexible when it comes to work hours and I have plenty of free time after 1pm. I have a rather large house though I’m mostly very open to taking your dog(s) on walks outside and around any inviting neighborhood and or dog park.
“We are a military family so we've moved a ton and feel like we've had about a billion Rovers. McKenzie is hands down, bar-none the best one we have ever had. It was the first trip where I feel like I could really relax because she was taking such good care of them. The time and effort she took with pictures and messages made me feel like she really got to know our dogs, too. It wasn't just a job - she really cared. So thankful for her and we will absolutely be using her services again!”
“Andrea and Ryan took excellent care of Somalia while we were away. They kept us posted with photos of visits and we felt confident our pet was in good hands. Highly recommended!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog received this weekend! From the start, they were communicative, reliable, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. They treated my dog like family, provided updates, and made sure all of their needs were met. It was clear my dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and dependable dog sitter. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my pup!”
“5/5 Stars! I am absolutely thrilled with the exceptional care Hillary and her husband provided to my beloved dog, Taz! From the moment I dropped Taz off, I knew I was leaving him in capable and compassionate hands. Despite a few unexpected mishaps, including Taz's Houdini-like escape into a prepared crate in the house, Hillary and her husband handled the situation with professionalism and calm. They ensured Taz was safe, happy, and fed on time, giving me complete peace of mind while I was away. What truly sets Hillary and her husband apart, however, is the genuine love and care they show to the dogs in their charge. It's clear they have a deep passion for animals and take the time to understand each dog's unique personality and needs. I highly recommend Hillary and her husband to anyone seeking top-notch pet care. They are trustworthy, reliable, and truly exceptional in every way. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of Taz – I'm forever grateful!”
About: I have been a lifetime pet parent and now I’m sitting full time. I am use to small to medium breeds, I enjoy walks around the neighborhood, play time and I do homework outside to the pups get more run time. I also can do Poppins for any type of animals. I’m a full time on line student so I’m almost always home. I love animals. I like to play with them in the yard or cuddle up on the couch. I either walk them when needed or when it is safe to do I don’t like to take any dogs out on hot pavement unless they’re wearing shoes. I am very respectful of my clients home and even willing to do small chores while gone.. I do enjoy being outside and playing ball with the dogs. Or lazing outside with them

Carla did a fantastic job cat-sitting Kiki! She was extremely thorough with feeding, fresh water, and cleaning the bowls and litter box. Best of all, Kiki loved her company and got plenty of attention and sweet ear scratches. Carla even helped out by bringing in our package and trash bin. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!
Thank you so much Nicole, you are the best! We always feel great about leaving Lovely in your care when we take a trip, and this time was no exception! Your write-ups and photos are so thoughtful, and you are so thorough, we can really tell she enjoys your visits! Thank you again!
Dash took excellent care of our cat when we were out of town. Juniper was fed twice a day on time and her litter was scooped. Dash even brought in a few packages that were delivered to our house while we were gone. We would highly recommend Dash for any pet sitting needs.
Kate was so amazing with my two kitties while I was away for the weekend. Sent me lots of updates and photos and super communicative with how they were doing! She gave me so much peace of mind while I was gone. She is also so sweet, professional and kind! 😊 Will absolutely be rebooking with her in the future when needed!
Marisa is so amazing! She is always prompt in her arrival and spends the whole time playing with my puppy. She changes potty pads and makes sure everything is just right for my dog. She always follows any instructions I leave, giving me such peace of mind when I cannot be home. She even brings in packages if they happen to show up while I’m away. My puppy loves her. 😍 I highly recommend her.
Stephanie was such a great sitter for our cat, Jojo. We were out of town for almost two weeks, and Stephanie made us feel at ease when she checked in daily with Jojo. Our cat is not the most social or easy cat to deal and Stephanie handled it like a pro. Stephanie was quick to respond and went the extra mile on many occasions. We highly recommend her for watching your pets.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Lincoln on Rover is $22.47 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 3,790 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lincoln. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Lincoln stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lincoln. On Rover:
- 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters 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 sitter.
