“Francois is everything you could want in a pet sitter. He’s very obviously a true animal lover — kind and caring — and he’s very responsible. We left our 4 month old Airedale puppy with him for 4 nights while we went overseas, and it was such a comfort to have Francois send us regular updates and photos showing what a lovely time he and Biggles were having. If you are looking for a loving home-away-from-home for your pet, you have found it. Thank you, Francois!!”
“Yick -hong is fantastic. My dog has some stranger danger, so I’m always nervous with new boarders, but he seemed to feel right at home. Lots of pics and updates, highly recommend.”
“Julie was a fabulous sitter for our girl Ruby while we were away. We got updates, pictures and appreciate that Ruby was getting lots of love and attention. Ruby greatly enjoyed her “vacation” with Julie and we would definitely book with her again.”
“Bridget was great! We appreciated the updates and photos while we were away—they gave us complete confidence that Willow was in excellent hands. Bridget was a prompt and clear communicator, and her attentiveness to our dog’s needs was genuinely appreciated. We would be delighted to work with her again!”
“Our 7 year old dog Blaze did very well with his first stay away from home with Paul M. Blaze was calm during drop off and at pick up. He was calm meeting Paul M. Paul sent updates and pictures throughout the stay. All communication before and during the booking was very timely. Paul reported keeping feeding and walking schedules as requested. Blaze was on track with everything up on return home. Thank you so much Paul M.”
“Maddy was so wonderful with my dog Jester!! We got tons of pictures and videos and you could tell how happy Jester was staying there. I was assured the whole time that my dog was well taken care of. We will use her again!”
“Sarah made sure Watson enjoyed his stay and even made new friends. He was happy to see me at the end but not frantic--a sign that he felt comfortable there. I was grateful to be able to relax on my trip knowing he was in good hands with a caring family. Would definitely leave him there again!”
“Wanda seemed really kind and caring from the second Koda met her! She took care of him for a week while we were on vacation and it seems like he had a great time playing with Wanda’s pup, Casey. It would be nice if Wanda provided more daily updates, I had to ask a few times to see how he was doing. Overall, Wanda seems like a very kind and reliable sitter.”
“Is it possible to leave TEN STARS?! ⭐️ Linda is AWESOME! My pup was right at home the minute we did our meet and greet! Linda is a true dog lover and she is so warm, so kind and just a joy to be around. My fur baby was in such good hands with her. I am so happy and grateful for her help and we both can’t wait to see her again. THANK YOU, Linda!!!!! 🐾⭐️”
“Liz & Rodrigo are incredible people, with an incredible family full of love to give! We were a bit nervous having someone board our newly adopted rescue Beagle, but they did an amazing job! They sent so many updates and photos while I was gone, I never once had to worry how they were doing! They were both accommodating of both our pup’s needs and I can tell our pups would love to go back whenever we need a sitter!”
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for and walking dogs of family and friends. I have also cared for puppies and animals with disabilities. I work from home and have the flexibility to make my own schedule on most weekdays. Afternoons are preferable for dog walking, though I can usually make accommodations for AM walks as well. I will mainly be offering dog walking services, so caring for the animals in my home will likely not be required. However, if a client needs at home care, I am willing to be flexible, depending on their preferences.
“We had a last minute trip during a holiday weekend and reached out to Hunter who quickly agreed to take care of our 15 year old toy poodle. She was quick to respond and provided great communication during the entire care. Our dog also got along great with her dogs. Would use her again!”
“Chanel is probably the best pet sitter we’ve ever had on this app. She was attentive and communicative and our pup seemed to really like being with her. Can’t recommend her enough!”
“Jeehye and her husband, Gasper, are truly wonderful sitters. They take such great care of our dog and always make sure he feels comfortable and happy. They even take him out for walks twice a day, which we really appreciate. Our dog absolutely loves them! They are also very considerate and flexible with our schedule and circumstances, which gives us great peace of mind. We always feel at ease knowing our dog is in such caring and reliable hands.”
“We booked super last minute and Sean was so quick to respond! We are usually super hesitant to leave our little Domo with others, but Sean made me feel like he was in good hands. Thank you so much Sean!! I’ll definitely be reaching out again!”
“We’re so happy we found Carol to take care of our Maisie. She clearly had an amazing time while we were away with new dog pals! Carol took such great care of her and we’ll absolutely be boarding Maisie with her again!”

Samuel and his wife took a great care of our dog while we were enjoying vacation! Rex returned happy and loved, and a bit spoiled:). I can tell from his smiling pictures that he was enjoying his time with this very nice couple! Thank you Sam and Morgan! We definitely will come back!
Pumpkin had a nice stay at at Francois's home for 4 days. I received a picture from Francois once a day after each walk. He followed the feeding and med instruction I provided. Pumpkin was happy and relaxed when I picked him up. I'd recommend Francois to anyone looking for a responsible dog sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Lincoln is $68 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $47 and $87 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 4,177 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 routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
94% of sitters in Lincoln can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Lincoln home-away-from-home, 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.
<b>Tip:</b> 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 , 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 .
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 MA 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.
