“Sarah was extremely professional, provided prompt communication & most importantly a very caring pet owner & care provider sending daily updates & pictures. 10/10 recommend!!”


“Our dog, Ethel, came back from her weekend stay looking tired, but definitely well-cared for. Ethel was treated like she was one of the family. We got daily updates and pictures from Kyla, and she was quick to respond whenever I reached out to her. Thank you for a good first experience with leaving our dog with a boarder found on Rover!”

“Sierra was great! My dog Gus came home happy, exercised, and with a well-needed trim :) Sierra made sure to communicate often and sent many photos throughout the weekend. I will definitely use her services again.”

“Very flexible with a homey environment for my Dalmatian, great communication and always updated with pictures throughout the week. Nala looked like she was having a blast and even made new friends”

“She took excellent care of our boy and he had a great time playing with the sweet Lucy. Courtney provided us with updates and pictures and was always easy to get a hold of.”

“Pluto LOVED staying with Marie. She sent many photos and kept me updated on Plutos stay. He was cuddled up in most of the photos and had the best time playing with Marie and her husband. Pluto got so much love and lots of treats during his stay. Pluto will be back to see Marie again soon!!”

“Keasha and her son are the best ! First time using Rover and I felt comfortable leaving my dog with them. You can tell Keasha and her son love animals. Pictures and video updates were awesome to receive. Will definitely ask them to watch her again. Highly recommend.”


“Great experience😊 this was the Second time Duke stayed with Bethany. Great to receive photos and updates daily. Also awesome that Duke cohabitated with other friendly dogs. He was exercised daily and Duke was clearly relaxed and content when I picked him up. Thank you Bethany!”

“Gary was great! I was hesitant at first as I am new to using rover, but after meeting gary, I felt comfortable and at ease leaving Abe with him over the weekend. I could tell that he is very passionate about animals and truly cares about the pets he looks after. He was very responsive and sent updates and photos of Abe throughout our time away. We can tell Abe had a great time and was very comfortable while with Gary. Would definitely contact again as well as recommend for sitting services. He will treat your pet like one of his own! 5 stars. Thank you Gary!!”


“Vita and I appreciate the time, care and attention given by Misael during our introductory day care session and an abbreviated boarding experience. I believe everything went very well and we will most likely use him again in the future months.”

“Angelina was a spectacular host! She sent constant updates, was flexible, had a great set-up, and most importantly gave a lot of love to my girls. 10/10 would highly recommend! Thank you Angelina! I would also note she was able to accomodate (in my circumstances) a last minute, 3 week stay for my pups which is unheard of. That speaks to her heart and caring nature!”


“Karen is exceptional! She took amazing care of our 13 year old Morkie cooking her salmon and ground beef when she was not eating the first few days. I highly recommend using Karen she is a kind caring considerate person.”

About: Hello there, I am an experienced pet sitter located in North Providence. I have my own home with a lovely yard, I'm retired, so I'm home the majority of the day so your pup will not be left alone for more than a few minutes if at all. I provide a caring, calm, safe environment to care for your special friend. Ive been taking care of dogs my whole life, and I have been sitting other peoples pets professionally for about 4 years now. I adore all kinds of dogs & animals in general and very much enjoy caring for peoples pets. Being retired allows me to have the time to dedicate myself to providing all the love & attention your furry family member deserves. I am very comfortable sitting all types of dogs, all ages & breeds are welcome. You may relax & rest assured that your loved ones needs are being met by a true animal lover with many years of experience as a dog owner and pet sitter & caregiver. My home is hardwood, some tile in the kitchen, and is always cleaned & pup proofed. I have plenty of space for your pup to romp and a beautiful yard to walk them in, with trails & parks nearby. I provide solo accommodations if your dog prefers being being the center or attention, and also take multiple dogs if they are from the same household. If you have any questions please contact me, I look forward to meeting you & your special friend soon! I began pet sitting after I retired, I am home 95% of the day, so your pet will be not be left unsupervised for more than a few minutes at the most. I am very loving, laid back, affectionate, & patient with the pets I take care of. I have a mostly fenced in backyard, we do our walks back there as well as spend time in my outdoor pen area when the weather is nice. When we are outdoors the pups are always on their leashes, and we avoid the main road just to be extra safe. I have an adorable 3 year old female Maltipoo named Ellie. She is as sweet as can be and loves to make new friends. When your pup comes to stay they are welcome to explore the entire house, it is safe and completely puppy proofed. They are allowed to snuggle on the couch, or wherever they are comfortable. I have plenty of beds, blankets, toys, & treats. We go for walks every two hours for tinkle breaks, and I like to take the dogs on a nice long walk in the mornings after breakfast and again after dinner. My little Ellie the Maltipoo loves to play, however is only 9 lbs so she is very gentle, she loves to make friends. I am comfortable administering medication or supplements if necessary, I have experience working with elderly dogs, and dogs on different medications as well. I am comfortable with dogs with health issues such as allergies, diabetes, and I am certified in pet first aid & CPR. I am comfortable with all age ranges, from puppy to elderly. I work with a few of both and they are equally adorable. If your dog has a special routine at home that you would like followed, such as crating, no furniture, special diets such as home cooked food. During mealtimes I separate Ellie & whomever is staying or with us for daycare. I have gates so that each dog can eat comfortably as well as preventing them from eating one anothers food. There is a beautiful trail nearby, with your permission the dogs do enjoy a nice stroll, and I take my dog quite often. Its a very mellow environment here, the dogs seem to enjoy coming & we have a lot of fun.
“We love working with Jackie! While it is difficult to not be with our dog, we know our dog is in good hands with Jackie! We get frequent updates and pictures, which make us feel at ease.”


About: Working from home and embracing my love of animals has been a dream come true! I have taken care of many pets through Rover, as well as animals who have belonged to family members and friends for over 9 years now. I recently bought a new home and changed locations from my co-owner prompting a new account. Through rover I have cared for a variety of pets with anxieties of every shape and form so please do not hesitate to reach out and see if i can accompany your family’s needs. In my home your pets will experience a lot of hands on time as well as daily adventures around the grassy neighborhood and sometimes to Lincoln woods(weather permitting). My yard is entirely fenced in with hedges obstructing view of the neighbors yards giving the dogs a private sanctuary to relax. You may contact me whenever to schedule a meet and greet. If you see me available to book then feel free to shoot a message as i regularly update my availability. I have never met a dog we did not like or has not loved me with time. I am also very respectful of your house rules especially those regarding your pet(s) such as what they can eat, be on, play with, etc.. i also take a plethora of pictures/videos for you to make sure you have a worry-free time away! I work from home giving me ample time to take care of pets daily. Generally speaking I am home most days playing with the dogs, watching tv, or gaming. The dogs are rarely alone. i am almost always hanging out with the dogs ready to give care and love. If they are not lounging with me then they are exploring the neighborhood or yard. I cannot think of a single dog with anxiety that hasn’t felt at home by night 2! I live in a relatively quiet neighborhood for walks containing lots of grass multiple times per day and a fenced in yard to hang out in. Minutes away from Lincoln Woods adventures and dog parks. Some days of course can be lazy days where we stay cozy and watch a movie. I’ll accommodate your preferences :) I don't have any breed preferences. I would like to know about all of your dog's dietary needs, how many times a day they should be walked, how active they usually are, any anxieties they might have, and anything else that would make their stay more comfortable. Early clients shall enjoy a star sitter at discount while I build this new account. I look forward to meeting you and your fur-babies. I currently work from my home. Your pets will be right by my side for most of every day whether it be watching tv, playing in the yard, or going on adventures through the grassy neighborhood, parks, and Lincoln Woods. My home has an entirely fenced in yard with hedges providing a private sanctuary your your pet to relax in. The neighborhood has lots of grassy sidewalks and shade from trees.
“Kaylee seemed to really enjoy her time with Steve and Christine! They took great care of her and handled her meds while we were gone. She was so relaxed, she barely noticed that we had arrived to pick her up.”

About: Animals have always held a very special place in my heart. I believe our pets are so much more than just animals; they are family, loyal companions, and beautiful souls who bring unconditional love into our lives. Having shared my own life with beloved bulldogs and cats over the years, I understand just how precious they are and how important it is to know they are safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. With 25 years of pet-sitting experience, I offer compassionate, dependable, and personalized care for both cats and dogs. Every animal has their own unique personality, needs, and little quirks, and I take the time to honor and understand each one. Whether it's gentle cuddles, playful moments, peaceful companionship, or simply making sure they feel secure in their own surroundings, I care for every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family members are being treated with the same love, patience, kindness, and respect they receive from you. Because to me, pet sitting isn't just a service — it's a privilege to be trusted with a piece of someone's heart. 🐶🐱💕 As a self-employed shamanic practitioner, herbalist, and massage therapist, I have been blessed to create a life and career centered around healing, compassion, connection, and caring for others. One of the beautiful benefits of being self-employed is having a flexible schedule that allows me plenty of extra time to dedicate to pet sitting. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and find their presence incredibly grounding, peaceful, and healing. I believe animals are beautiful souls who deserve the same love, kindness, patience, and respect that we give one another. Because I create my own schedule, I have the freedom to be present and attentive, offering your furry companions plenty of affection, companionship, and individualized care rather than simply stopping in and rushing out. Pet sitting is something that fits naturally into my lifestyle and brings me so much joy. Being able to spend my days surrounded by animals, nature, and healing energy is truly a gift, and I would be honored to share that love and care with your beloved pets Being outdoors and connecting with nature is a huge part of my life, and I absolutely love sharing that joy with our four-legged friends! Hiking, exploring wooded trails, visiting parks, and enjoying the fresh air are some of my favorite things to do. I also have a Sprinter van, which makes it possible to take your furry companions on fun dog-friendly excursions and outdoor adventures, always keeping their individual needs, comfort, and safety in mind. I live in a cozy, pet-friendly apartment conveniently located near beautiful parks and green spaces, offering plenty of opportunities for walks, playtime, and exploration. Whether your dog is an adventurous soul who loves hiking through the woods or a gentle homebody who prefers leisurely strolls, belly rubs, and snuggling up for some quiet time, I am happy to accommodate their unique personality. I believe animals thrive when they feel loved, safe, and connected to the world around them. My goal is to make their time with me feel like a little vacation of their own, filled with love, adventure, companionship, and plenty of wagging tails!
“Wonderful experience! Katy took excellent care of our dog, and sent the sweetest photo updates. Communication was super easy and fast. I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in their hands!”

Jasper (senior dog) and Tootsie immediately accepted Karen’s welcoming presence which assured us that they were going to be well looked after. Karen continued to keep us updated with wellness reports and photos. Upon our 14 day return home, our dogs were very happy, well cared for and we would definitely book and recommend Karen as a sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Lincoln is $27 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $44 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 1,598 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, we recommend 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.
Tip: 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 Rover Guarantee, 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 Rover's Trust & Safety page.
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 RI 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.
