About: I’ve been around and cared for dogs throughout my life, including my own growing up and dogs belonging to friends and family. I have experience with dogs of different ages, including senior dogs, and I’m comfortable with walks, checkins, feeding, playtime, and keeping them company while you’re away. I know every dog is different, so I’m happy to learn their routine and follow whatever works best for them. I work a consistent Monday through Friday schedule and am generally available after work, with more flexibility on weekends. I’m happy to discuss timing and your pet’s routine before booking to make sure I can provide the care they need. I know how much trust goes into leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I’m happy to follow whatever routines, instructions, or precautions you have in place and will always ask if I’m unsure about something. I’m also happy to send updates and photos while you’re away so you know how things are going.

“Meira was a wonderful sitter! She sent tons of videos and photos during each visit and was very attentive to my cat’s needs. My cat is usually slow to warm up, but Meira was able to pet her and play with her every time. She’s very professional. I would highly recommend her.”
“Gabby was absolutely wonderful! She was very communicative and respectful of our house. She did a wonderful job taking care of our cat Molly while we were away for the week. Gabby followed all the notes and instructions we left her and she didn't hesitate to reach out if she needed anything. I would highly recommend her and am looking forward to booking with her again!”

About: I meditate regularly so I have a calm, grounded presence, especially around animals. I grew up around cat and dogs my whole life so I know them well and how to care for them. Also I all kinds of animals including octopus, fish, snakes, scorpions, frogs, spiders, hedgehogs, ferrets, etc. Happy to care for any and all pets in your family. I run my own design/tech/apparel company (goodfornothing.lol) so I can work from anywhere on my laptop and my schedule is my own. Taking care of animals is a joy for me and gets me out of the house and out for walks =) I can be available for weekdays or most weekends with enough prior notice. I especially enjoy dropping in on pets during the day when their people are at work and give them some time/food/walks/playtime/attention. I can't offer pet boarding in my home currently, but I'm happy to house and pet sit for you while your family is away. I prefer sleeping in my own travel camper that I can park easily by your home when I come to visit. Happy to arrange anything from as short as a weekend to a few weeks if you'll be away for a while.
About: I've cared for animals my whole life, including those with medical needs or on specialized diets. I'm used to the dirty work and want your pet to feel extra cared of! I'm used to friendly pets or those who need more space. I can handle it all and will communicate all updates to you quickly. I have early and evening availability until mid-August and then open availability. I'm happy to do early early mornings or later nights, and have a vehicle so can get wherever you need. I've been a house-sitter for years and respect your space immensely! I'm a trusted caregiver in my day-job (all my jobs have required background and CORI checks) and I communicate any and all changes, so you never feel left out of the loop.
About: I'm the go to girl for washing up our puppers, and even climbing in the tub just to set them at ease. I go the extra mile to make sure animals are comfortable and happy. I currently have all the freedom to play with your pup, walk them, and care for their needs. So please fill my calendar with puppy play dates! I would like to fully understand the routine the client has for their pet prior to make sure it does not get disrupted and allows the pup to stay at ease.

“Heather was great! She was super responsive and willing to communicate. She stuck to our kitten’s schedule just right and they were super content when we got back. Thank you Heather!”
About: I have taken care of my pets for years, mainly cats, but I have experience with dogs as well. Either way, I love both the same! I am able to administer medications, follow diet guidelines, and take care of accidents that may occur. And most of all, I can provide a cuddle or snuggle and unconditional love for your fur baby or babies! I currently have a part time job, but will be able to take care of animals full time soon! For now I can take care of animals Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Sundays. I have one cat at the moment, I have helped to take care of him along with my parents for over 11 years. In recent years, as he ages, he has needed more medications which I have helped to administer, he is on a special diet and he also has some tummy troubles occasionally that I have helped to clean up. I also had a second cat that I took care of at the same time who needed a lot more care. He was a small, sensitive Siamese who was extremely overbred and who suffered from a lot of stomach issues. The two cats didn’t get along so the Siamese ended up living mainly in my room and our other cat had the run of the house since he had arrived in the family first.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Lincoln
It was my first time using Rover and to have Jessica as my first sitter was truly the most amazing experience. She was very professional and kind. She paid attention and remembered the things I said. I pointed to the litter manual just in case she needed it but no she READ the whole thing to be prepared. That was just ONE of the many things she did to go above and beyond. The pictures and descriptions she sent made me feel at peace and that my cat was loved and cared for like it was her own. She always showed up even earlier at times, was very detailed with the descriptions of the visits, and took lots of pictures. We had an incident where the fire alarm was going off because of the low battery, I got so nervous my friend had to be the one that texted for me but Jessica acted promptly to handle the situation and made me feel at peace that my cat was doing okay afterwards. Definitely re-booking her every time if she’s available she’s truly great and I can’t recommend her enough ❤️
We’ll miss Kayla and wish her the best on her new life adventure! My kitty and I instantly gravitated toward her - it was clear from the beginning that she genuinely cares about animals. She was reliable, attentive, and made sure my kitty was well cared for while I was away. I felt very comfortable being away knowing Kayla was with my baby. I wish we could keep her here in Smithfield!
Delaney did an amazing job with our cats. They can a little timid with new people but they quickly warmed up to her. We have one that requires different medication at different times and she handled the schedule easily.. She even played with them for a bit and of course sent pics. The boxes were taken care of and asked questions if needed. We really appreciate all the time and care she showed them. We hope to work with her again. Thank you!
Jenna did drop in visits for our cat for 3 days while we were away. She sent a picture every visit and made sure to let me know how my cat was feeling. I felt safe with Jenna in my home and with my cat. Jenna is trustworthy and she was always very fast and clear with her communication.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Cat Sitting in Lincoln is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $21 per visit. 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.

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 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 Meet & Greet.

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 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.
