About: I love to work with pets. I love to taking care of pets, feeding, walking, playing with them. Also I have a CPR Certificate, my insurance and anything you need to trust in me and leave your beloved friend under my supervision. With my your pet will be really happy, will receive love will have fun and care. Taking pets to walk is my passion, I enjoy a lot walking with those furry friends by my side. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays when I am off. I live in first floor in a big apartment. So taking care of pets in my home is not an issue. The Waltham Common is near so we can walk in nature freely.

About: I’ve had dogs ever since I was in preschool. They’re my favorite furry buddies in the whole world! I have experience caring for my dogs, not only providing them love but attention as well. One of my dogs had diabetes and needed daily insulin shots and to be let outside regularly. My care of him gave me some additional caretaker skills! I have a dog right now and I have to look after her daily. Whether it’s feeding her, giving her kisses, or taking her for a walk, my day consists of providing attention for my pet! I am always vigilant when it comes to my pet. I watch my dog and pay attention to her cues, making sure that all of her needs are met. I also closely watch out for other dogs and their interaction with mine. By having a dog, I’ve been able to read body language really well, which allows me to remove my pet from a potentially dangerous situation.

Alison treated our cat very well while we were away. She was able to give him his medicine with no issues and sent us lots of photos of them playing. Our cat can be a bit feisty, so it was great to see her manage him so well.

Eric was fantastic to work with. He was professional, personable, and prompt in providing pictures and videos after he visited Opal. He made us feel comfortable, and built a relationship with our pet. I would recommend Eric to anyone looking for a trustworthy and considerate sitter on Rover.

About: Growing up, we always did pet sitting for our friends when they were away on trips(Schanuzer's and Poodle's specifically). I would walk them three times a day, pick their poop, and feed them food and water. Additionally, when I am at school, I have helped local friends walk their dogs on campus and around the Westwood/Beverley Hills area. I am pretty much free the whole week along with weekends. I do work so availability will vary per week. However, I am always at home overnight everyday, and I also have my parents at home. My home is set up to ensure a safe, secure, and comfortable environment for pets. We separate the upstairs and downstairs areas to prevent access to any potentially dangerous furniture or household products, like bathroom toiletries. Our home is equipped with security cameras, which allows for continuous monitoring to ensure your pet's safety and well-being at all times. We also maintain a clean, clutter-free space to eliminate any tripping hazards or opportunities for injury.

About: When I was born I always had dogs around. Then, I owned my own. Also, throughout life I have been sitting my family’s and friends’ dogs. Dogs are family members without which I can’t imagine my life! I go on walks with dogs, I cook with them around, I do work with them next to me on a chair, so I consider dogs a part of my day! I feed and walk them, play and talk to them and pet them! :) I also make sure that they are feeling physically and emotionally alright!

About: I have grown up with dogs of all different breeds and sizes throughout my life and they have become a constant part of my life. My parents, aunts, and uncles have always had dogs growing up as well, and they truly become members of the family. I have watched all my families dogs and also worked at petsmart in the pet hotel for three years. I expect the high level of care that I have given my pets when I have looked for care for my own animals. I have watched dogs through rover now for around three years and have plenty of great reviews . We love having dogs of all sizes and breeds and our dog blue loves all dogs that come over to stay

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Lincoln on Rover is $42.18 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 10,590 sitters on Rover offering Dog 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.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Lincoln choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Lincoln with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Lincoln. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.

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.
