About: I am a true animal lover and own a horse, who is my world! I’ve owed cats and dogs my entire life. Taking walks, spending quality time and playing are my specialties!

I am happy to provide necessary play and rest time for your pet, and have most weekends free. I feel a calm, easy environment is important. I love going to local walking trails and also simple neighborhood walks. I feel it’s important to respect both the owner’s and their dog or cats needs while in my care.

About: Experience with senior dogs, difficult cats, and hyper young ones who need that special one on one attention. Having cared for a dog with cancer, I am happy to do any extra care necessary for special cases. I have a very flexible hybrid schedule, which means I can work from your home and provide your pal with around the day attention and breaks.

About: Cats and dogs have always been the fur babies of my family. I have a bunch of dog cousins and I've raised and cared for several cats in my life through all stages of life. I work 8 hr shifts (6:30 am-3pm or 1pm-9pm). Outside of work, typically would run errands, but if i could, i would be able to walk or pet sit. I have worked full time and pet sit in the past. It would be great to pet sit because I love pets, but don't have them here in the city. Because I don't have pets here, however I would be able to pet sit either at my place or the clients place. I have a safe one bedroom apartment so I would always be near the fur baby if I am hosting. There are no other pet that could potentially cause discomfort for the client pet. I love to cuddle and play with cats, but i can also be patient and wait for them to come to me. I also have skills to administer topical and oral medicine if necessary.

About: I have had pets (dogs and cats) my whole life and love being around them. I am a graduate nursing student hoping to spend time with your pets and help however I can!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a young girl. Growing up, I’ve owned and been trusted to watch a wide range of pets, but I love being around dogs of all ages! I’m currently a graduate student, with classes only taking up half of my week, so I have multiple days I can devote to pet care! Usually, Thursdays/Fridays/Saturdays are my pet days. When entering your home, respect is my top priority. It’s a privilege to be let into your space, and I will respect your home and pet as if they were my own.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was a little kid. Rescues, pure breads, energetic & rambunctious, low key, nervous, happy, big and small, healthy, sick, I've been around them all! I work from home 90% of the time. There are occasions when I meet with clients in person or I need to spend a little time at my office, but the majority of the time I am working from the house. I take Remy and Holly to the park/on a hike twice a day unless it’s too hot. Remy grew up surrounded by new dogs everyday for the first 3 years of his life and over time he's met pretty much every kind of dog with every kind of personality so at this point he's a pro with being around new pups! Holly basically loves everyone!! I have a fenced in yard and a friendly dog that enjoys the company of all types of dogs. He lived with his Mum until October and she is a dog trainer who also boards and so he is completely use to new dogs of all breeds and sizes coming in daily!
“Chloe is an excellent dog sitter! She comes on time, makes sure my dog is taken out, and fed. She also walks and plays with her. She is very responsive and will ask if anything is needed. I also like her pricing as it is affordable. I definitely recommend her as a sitter!”
About: I've had a dog (weimaraner) for most of my childhood, he was my buddy. I have boarded dogs at my house (senior rottweiler, pug, aussie, pitbull, red heeler) and walked neighborhood dogs (lab, border collie, goldendoodle) multiple times over the past 5 years, from adolescent to senior. I currently volunteer at a dog rescue, mostly with the thrift store but also spending time with the dogs. I truly enjoy having dogs around, I am not able to have my own at the moment and so I enjoy the time I get with dogs in need and neighborhood pets. I'm currently volunteering for 5 hours at a time, 2-3 days a week on Sunday and Monday, and I will be starting a job soon, so I will make sure to update my schedule once that is available to me. I can spend time with your dog all day when available to provide company, pets, and throw a frisbee in the yard, but I am also very comfortable taking dogs on long walks. I am pretty good about reading dogs' mannerisms and trying to adapt my activity based on their personality. If I'm new to a dog, I will try and make sure I do something with them they love to earn their trust.
About: What sets me apart is my experience with long-term and out-of-state pet sitting. I’ve cared for a wide range of pets—including senior animals and high-energy pups—and I’m great at sticking to routines, adapting to different personalities, and making pets feel safe and loved. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always keep pet parents updated so they can travel with peace of mind Since I work from home, I have the flexibility to seamlessly integrate pet care into my daily routine. I schedule regular breaks throughout the day to focus on the pets in my care—whether it’s feeding them on time, taking them out for walks, or having play sessions to keep them happy and mentally stimulated. One of the biggest benefits of being home all day is that I’m always nearby to provide companionship, attention, and a consistent routine. Your pet won’t be left alone for long stretches—they’ll get plenty of love, engagement, and care from morning to evening Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I keep a clean, pet-friendly space with no hazards around, and I make sure they’re always supervised—especially during walks or outdoor time. I follow any instructions you provide to a T, from feeding and potty routines to preferred walking routes or special care needs. If I’m in your home, I treat it with the same respect I would my own, keeping everything tidy and secure. I also check gates, doors, and anything else that could be a risk for escape artists or curious pets. My goal is to create a calm, trusted environment where your pet feels completely at ease
“Lindsay did a wonderful job with my puppy for her second visit here. She is always easy to work with, follows the instructions I leave, and connects so well with my pup. Thanks again!!”
About: I grew up with dogs and animals around me so would love to continue being around them. Life is boring without them, in our world. I work full time and go to school during the week would love to help people out during the weekend and maybe even weekdays if there is that relationship. I currently am not offering pet sitting at my house because my Roomate is allergic but I can come to the dogs home and care for them.

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.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking.

sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
