“Alyssa went above and beyond taking care of our pets, she even went out of her way to get more litter for our cats when we were running low. Very thankful for that! We were also very happy with the detailed notes and pictures she sent us while we were gone. Will definitely be booking with her again in the future !”
“Communication was great. Loki didn't socialize, but Hilary always let me know if she found where she was hiding. Pictures were good, if Loki was found. Hilary was very reliable and I felt very comfortable having her there.”
“Chelsea did a wonderful job. She was very timely and quick to reply, and helped us on a very short notice. She communicated well and followed all instructions we asked. Izzy seemed to be really happy and we will definitely use Chelsea again if we need Izzy taken care of while we are gone!”
“Ella did a great job. I have never boarded these two cats and she was very patient with both me and my little boy kitty who hid a lot more than I expected. I will definitely be using her in the future and I would recommend her.”
“Alexus was great! Ella loved every minute with her! She gave her all the lovings while we were gone and went above and beyond. Would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”
About: I worked as a Lincoln Children's Zoo volunteer for five years, from age 11 to about age 15-16! Cared for and handled all sorts of animals! Have also been a a go-to pet sitter for my neighbors for at least seven years, and am still happy to continue! I usually work closing shifts for my job on Sundays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, but all weekdays I am available to check on your fur babies! Most of the time, I am scheduled to work at about 4 P.M, so any time during the day, I would love to come over! Love to play with pets, especially doggies! Will play outside/run around with them, send you photos to update you, even snuggle up on the couch with them if they're feeling tired!
“Jamie was incredible with my cat, Jerry. I wasn't aware of this app until I had little time left before my trip and she was able to squeeze me in for a meet and greet with me and my furry baby in short notice. She was very sweet with him and followed the direction for his care very well. I know he was cared for with great attention and love as he was very calm when I arrived back home. If I wasn't moving away, I would definitely hire Jamie again for every trip.”
About: I’ve been helping dog sit for about 2 years with a friend in Hickman, NE. I have moved into the Lincoln area again & love all sorts of animals! Dogs of course have that special place in my heart. I have an 11 year old husky lab mix that I got when she was 8 weeks old and a 5 year old Dutch rabbit that I got when she was just under a year. I work 40 hours a week for a cancer center in Lincoln and bartend some weekends. Just looking to fill extra time with extra love 💕 Currently work full time 0800-1630 Monday - Friday. I work in South Lincoln and am available for drop ins or walks early or after work. Weekends are more open for availability but I do work at a bar so sometimes hours may vary. I can crate your animal as needed, walks by leash, outside fetch, etc. any way I can help make your animal feel more comfortable, I am happy to help! If you have a strict schedule or certain way of doing things, please just let me know.
“Amy did such a good job with my cats. They looked well taken care of and always answered when I asked questions or needed reassurance that they were happy. Thanks again for doing such a great job!”
“For a casual, last minute drop in to look in on Cassie on Mothers Day, Trish was extremely helpful and accomodating. She walked Cassie during her visit, kept notes, and sent a photo. Cassie seemed well pleased.”
“Tiffany took excellent care of my cats while I was away. She kept me updated with photos after every visit and gave my cats extra attention and pets that helped me feel confident they were in good hands. I came home to calm and happy cats. I’d absolutely book again.”
“Kayla was wonderful!! Our cat was very happy to be able to stay at home and have Kayla come visit daily. I can tell from the pictures, that Carmen loved Kayla. We will definitely be using Kayla in the future”
“JASMINE!!! I am so happy with her service and how well she took care of my furbabies. She will be my go-to person from now on. I am so lucky to have found her. She loves and gives with all of her heart. :-)”
“Taylor was amazing! She was always on time and provided excellent feedback daily!! Our favorite part was seeing the pictures of Willow! We appreciated her just as much as Willow did!”
About: Growing up on a farm, I learned early on that every animal deserves patience and a steady hand. I treat every pet as an equal, whether I’m bottle-feeding a newborn kitten, training a high-energy dog to run alongside me, or simply sitting in the sun to keep a senior pet company. Because I don’t have pets of my own right now, my schedule is completely open. They get 100% of my attention, 100% of the time. Working from home full-time gives me the ultimate flexibility to provide your pet with constant companionship.I have dedicated blocks in the morning, at noon, and in the evening for long walks, play sessions, and feedings. Your pet won't just be 'checked on'—they’ll be part of my daily flow. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is maintaining their sense of security. I follow your 'house rules' to the letter to ensure their routine stays consistent. From refreshing water bowls and administering meds to high-energy play sessions, I handle every task with care. I also make sure your home stays exactly as you left it—secure, clean, and filled with a happy, well-exercised pet.
About: I have had dogs and cats in the past, and am now the proud owner of two kitties! Ramona and Lucy keep me busy at home, but have been a Rover sitter for years. I love getting to meet new pets! I live and work in Lincoln! I work mostly weekdays and occasional weekends, the specific days vary which allows me to be pretty flexible. My day is 7:30a to 4p, so if you need a visit early in the morning I can do that! I play sand volleyball on Monday nights, happy to work around that. Overall I feel I have plenty of time in my schedule and would love to put that time to good use! My girls at home are my children! They’re spoiled with all of our love and attention. I understand that pets love their home, routine, and familiar smells. Trust that I will respect your pet’s nerves while you’re gone (if they have any). You’re their person, but they’ll be safe and loved in your absence.
“Kristin was great again! We have used her more than once, this time for just a check-in, feed breakfast, and play a bit for an hour while we were gone for an all-day event. Will always try to use Kristin when we need a Rover.”
The median cost per visit for cat sitting in Lincoln is $18

We used Taylor again while we were away for the weekend, and she was wonderful as always! She does such a great job with our pets, and we really appreciate all the photos and updates while we’re away. She’s definitely our go-to sitter! Thank you, Taylor, for taking such great care of them! ❤️
Alyssa went above and beyond taking care of our pets, she even went out of her way to get more litter for our cats when we were running low. Very thankful for that! We were also very happy with the detailed notes and pictures she sent us while we were gone. Will definitely be booking with her again in the future !
Rachel was not only punctual, clear, and kind, but also went above and beyond the call of duty. Our flights (both of them) got delayed, and she made room in her schedule to do an emergency visit (my wife made it home by some miracle, so); we didn't need the visit, but we could breathe knowing that everything was going to be okay because of Rachel. I only just got back and started to recover from a harrowing journey, and she was also patient waiting for this review. I would give 6 stars if I could, will definitely be booking again. Great work.
Kelly took wonderful care of my cat when I was out of town. She was on time for all of his visits and sent detailed updates about what they did during each visit. It was clear by the photos she sent that my cat adored her! I would definitely recommend Kelly and will certainly use her again next time I need cat care.
Jamie was absolutely wonderful with my 2 pets , Maddie and Jaden. You could immediately see she loves and is good with animals. Jaden (cat) normally is very shy but not with Jamie, he immediately went to her. I had last minute flight changes and she was there to help. I will definitely use Jamie again.
Payton watched my cats while I was out of town. She came to meet my cats a couple days before I left town. She did an excellent job taking care of them while I was away. I will definitely have her watch them again sometime and would recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Lincoln on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
