House Sitting in Lincoln

“Gina is the best. We have 2 bigger dogs and she handles them great. We don’t worry at all when they are in her hands and we’ve even taken longer trips up to 5 days. She is pleasant and responsible with a nice sense of humor. Our dogs love her and are comfortable around her. You can tell Gina is a dog person by the way she interacts with them. No fear and completely comfortable which also helps the pups not be anxious while we are gone. I highly recommend Gina.”

“Nicole and Gabriel took such good care of our dog, Sunny, while we were in the hospital giving birth to our child. We are eternally grateful to them for not having to worry about our 4-legged firstborn and for offering to dog sit on such short notice! We will not hesitate to call them again next time we need a sitter. Thank you both ~ you’re the best!”

“Abby was great to work. She communicated frequently and asked questions to make sure she followed what Yoly needed. She kept Yoly in her routine and was a great house guest. I would not hesitate to book with Abby again.”

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 12! I am active so I can play with your pup! I am comfortable giving medicine if needed! I’m currently a nursing student who wants to spend my extra time with animals! I am available throughout the week and weekends! My availability differs by week but my calendar is always up to date! I will take your fur-baby on plenty of walks and give them lots of love. I will take them to the bathroom accordingly and follow any instructions given!

About: My name is Laura. I have been a dog owner my whole life. I have been a Rover sitter on and off for about 5 years and would love to take care of your fur babies while you are out of town. I have owned several special needs animals and am good at working with animals of all temperments. I have experience dealing with dogs of all ages and sizes. I especially love caring for older dogs who may need a little extra care and attention. I have worked with large groups of dogs and am willing to take care of several at a time if you have a large pet family. I have open availability and would love to play with your dog and make sure they are well taken care of. I have a full time job with flexibility. As long as I have about a weeks notice it should not be a problem to accommodate weekday visits to pets. Weekends are no problem. I like to do an initial house visit with the owner to get an idea of what the house looks like and where the pet is comfortable. If we cannot get a face to face meeting first please message me with detailed care instructions to ensure proper care for your pet.

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, growing up with dogs, cats, birds, and even lizards. My mom was an animal lover, and I’ve followed in her footsteps. I helped my dad with his three cats that my mom used to care for before she passed, driving an hour every week for grooming and bathing (one of them is a bit oversized!). I’d love to care for your beloved pet. Although I can’t have pets of my own due to my wife’s allergies, this makes pet sitting my dream job! I regularly care for my father’s cat, Jack, traveling over an hour each way, so distance is not an issue for me. I work seasonally for a cemetery in Bloomington which leaves me laid off from December 1st to March 1st each year. So I am highly available in that 3 month span, and then on weekends during the rest of the year. I’m here to support you and your beloved pet. I’ve always had a deep love for animals and the people who care for them. When my wife mentioned pet sitting, I was excited to get involved right away. Dogs seem to love me, and cats generally tolerate me—which I think says a lot about my character! I’m reliable, trustworthy, and available when you need me. I’ve been caring for pets since I was young, helping neighbors with feeding, walking, and cleanup. I promise to provide the care and attention your pet deserves and be a great fit for you both!

About: My pet care experience consists of having a dog throughout my childhood and adult years. I've always loved the companionship of owning a dog and also visiting or babysitting families and friends' dogs/cats. With having a dog comes a lot of responsibility and attention whether that's feeding, letting outside, physical activity, and training. I'm experienced in all of those qualities. The pet care that I will be using through the new dogs and cats I meet are the basics of giving treats, going for walks, and playing fetch or ball. Those basics are important and useful for dog caregivers because any dog would love the attention and care that you are giving them unconditionally. I'm also experienced in grooming with bathing the pet if needed. Whether that's outside with a hose and soap or inside in a bathtub. Dogs are my best friends and should be treated with love and companionship therefore I would treat the dog and make sure they are happy and comfortable but also safe and calm at all times. My schedule is very flexible and in the case of babysitting or walking a dog, I will be attentive and responsible. Since I currently have a dog at home I take her outside frequently, stay outside with her and walk around the backyard or throw a toy and play fetch or even just sit in the grass and give her belly rubs. My daily routine consists of letting my dog outside and hanging out with her off and on while also letting her have time to rest and chill by herself. My weekly routine is the same as my daily routine aside from additional car rides, pup cups, or cousin visits with other dogs. The safety, trust & Environment of the care for the pet in my home and or my client's home will consist of making sure all doors are shut when entering and exiting the home or garage. Also making sure the dog is on a leash and well equipped when walking through a neighborhood. I also have a fenced-in yard so I'm experienced with fences and the proper precautions if needed. I can easily create your dog too if needed. Also water supply and refilling the water bowl as needed and giving supplements or medicine also. Also will have the clients contact information in case of emergency.

Phoenix O.

“Madie was amazing. We had a last minute conflict with our dog sitter and she came to the rescue. It was our first time using someone who was not family watching her. She came to our house on Thanksgiving to do a meet and greet which greatly decreased our hesitation about using someone else to watch our fur baby. Madie went above and beyond what we could have asked for. She was professional and extremely kind. She cared for Stella as if she were her own. We will definitely be using her again! Cannot recommend her enough.”
