“Emily had no problems getting in and out of the house with our key pad . She was able to get the dogs leashed and on their walk . I have one dog that's 8yrs old and super timid . She usually runs and hides when new people try to leash or pet her. One of my dogs uses a regular leash and the other a gentle lead. It's great to see everything worked out for their first 30 mins walk with Emily . Lookinv foward to their next walk !”

About: I come from a family of pet lovers (dog lovers to be specific, but I don't discriminate). Dogs have been members of my family since I was a wee lass. As of now, I take care of my tiny 4-pound chihuahua who loves to sit in the sunny spots outside or bark at intruders from the safety of the couch. I like to volunteer at the local Hotel for Homeless Dogs but at the end of the day a girl's gotta eat, so here I am! I am willing to care for your pet at any time, any day of the week. I have complete availability to hang out with your pet and tend to their needs.🐾 My home is located in a quiet, family-friendly neighborhood in suburban Lincoln. The house is pet-friendly, complete with a large fenced backyard with lots of space to run in the grass! I live right on the Blackstone River Bikeway which provides easy access to scenic walks along the canal if you allow me to care for your pet at my address. If you provide me the opportunity to care for your pet in the comfort of your own home, I will request a complete rundown of all their needs including the spaces they are allowed to roam and places that are off limits. I'll also provide constant text and photo updates to ease your mind while you're away.

About: Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for my own pets throughout my life and have hands-on experience as both a foster caregiver and dog trainer with service dogs in training. These experiences have taught me how to understand different personalities, needs, and behaviors while providing patience, consistency, and plenty of love. My passion for animals also led me to earn a degree in Ecology, where I developed a deeper understanding and appreciation for the natural world and the animals we share it with. I truly enjoy getting to know each animal as an individual and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Whether your pet needs exercise, enrichment, companionship, or simply some extra attention, I’m dedicated to treating them like family. I’m currently in between jobs and have plenty of time to care for your best friend! I also have a dog at home so I do need to care for him but other than that I’m available weekdays and weekends! When caring for pets in their own home, my goal is to keep them comfortable, happy, and on their normal routine. I understand that staying in a familiar environment can help pets feel more relaxed while their owners are away. I also take pride in being respectful of your home. I keep things clean and tidy, make sure pets have fresh water and a comfortable space, and provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away!

About: I’ve taken care of so many different types of animals growing up. I have always had a compassion for caring for animals and providing them with the love and care that they deserve. I am currently a student in college who works part time, while taking in online classes. So a lot of my time will be spent creating bonds with your beloved animals!

About: I am a dog owner with extensive sitting experience for all breeds and sizes. Prior to COVID, I was a volunteer dog walker and helper. I am willing to watch dogs for overnight stay, day care or other options as requested. I can also pick up and drop off or perform drop in visit within a 20 minute radius of Pawtucket RI. All my meet and greets are held outdoors and masks are no longer required also I’m fully vaccinated. This is my job and I treat it with the upmost respect and professionalism. I treat them as my own, whether they are here for days or hours. I currently work with Amazon at the comfort of my home. My schedule is pretty flexible! Working from home allows me to work for Rover as part time and helps me pay for college tuition. I live in a big apartment with a spacious living room. There is plenty of space for your fur baby to run and play outside. Also I live near many beautiful parks where I can take your pup to play.

About: I am a PhD student at URI looking to get my pet fix!! I have been a dog lover for as long as I can remember, but now having a cat has made me love them almost just as much! I had a dog growing up, and have experience professionally walking dogs since 2020. I love LITERALLY every dog I have ever met, and would be honored to care for your pet whenever needed! You can be sure they will get the best possible treatment, walks, and hugs! As a former student-athlete I am super energetic and outgoing, so if a tired pupper is what you need, no problem! I'm currently in school, so my availability is pretty flexible as long as the time is not during my class schedule! Just ask and I can let you know! I have a car to go to and from client's homes, so distance is not an issue! I have experience checking in on dogs and cats, as well as dog walking!

About: I’ve loved and had dogs since I was very young, always taking care of them. Mine recently have passed of old age but I am not in a place to get my own again yet! I would love to take care of anyone’s dogs as if they’re my own! Please note my rate before scheduling! I’m currently enrolled in online college, so I am home almost always.

It leads to a beautiful reservoir. We also have a large front yard and peaceful neighborhood.

About: I have been dog sitting for friends on and off since I can remember and always grew up around animals. I love to stay active and move but also just sit and play and take care of dogs and cats. I always seem to know just the right spot to rub with all the cute adorable dogs which is all of them! I understand that they come in all sizes and all have different personalities and I can’t wait to meet them! Spending time with any animal never seems to disappoint me and will always bring a smile to my face with their beautiful tail wags and smiling. I have been walking dogs using Wag previous to this Currently part time working and looking for extra time with some new furry friends! I love spending time outdoors and do so on my own so having a buddy is always a nice touch. Safety is a big concern animals are basically like family and I understand that their safety is a priority. I always make sure they are handled with love and care and patience.

About: As a pet owner myself, I value honest and reliable care, not only for owners, but the animals themselves. I have experience providing care for a diverse set of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, and other small animals. I aim to build trust with those for whom I provide care. I am comfortable with administering medication and attending to specific needs. Most importantly, I treat others pets with the same love and attentiveness as I do my own. I work full-time during the week, though I have more flexibility on Tuesdays and Thursdays when I work from home. I am available for drop-in visits any day of the week. I work with my clients to meet their needs and go out of my way to do so. When providing care in an owner’s home, I aim to leave pets and the home in a state that the owner would be happy to return to. I respect the boundaries of owners and pets alike so that I can build a relationship of trust, communication, and reliability. I hope to show my dedication to proper pet care through my actions.

About: Ive been taking care of my own pets as long as Ive been able, and began pet sitting, house sitting, and dog walking for others in high school during 2022. I have experience with cats and dogs of varying ages (puppies/kittens-elderly pets) and needs (illnesses and disabilities), as well as more exotic pets like lizards, birds, rodents, and aquatic animals like fish, turtles, and axolotls. I’ve administered medications for dogs, but do not have experience with needles. I’ve spent up to a week taking care of several animals at a time, as well as short periods like nights and checking in daily. I will do all I can to provide your pet and home with the care they need! I’m currently in college, but primarily online, so my school schedule is flexible with your needs! I am not working outside of pet care so I am not tied down to other responsibilities and provide the time needed to care for your pets. I’ve lived with pets my whole life, so I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. When caring for pets in their own home, I’ll follow their usual schedule as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of attention. I’m comfortable paying attention to a pet’s behavior and making sure they’re safe, comfortable, and secure. I’ll also treat your home with respect, double-check doors and gates, and follow any specific instructions you leave. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you can relax knowing your pets are being well cared for while you’re away.

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover originally from Brazil, where my love for animals started at a young age. I've always had dogs in my life, and caring for them has always been something very special to me. I'm a proud dog mom to Kacey, my sweet and energetic 6-year-old black Labrador. She's very friendly with other dogs and absolutely loves playing, exploring, going on walks, and joining me on little adventures. Although I'm new to Rover, I'm not new to loving and caring for dogs! I'm excited to open my home and share that love with other families. Whether it's walks, playtime, boarding, or outdoor adventures, my goal is to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, happy, and loved. I also love taking pictures and videos, so I'd be more than happy to send you updates throughout your dog's stay or visit. I know how important it is to feel at ease when someone else is caring for your furry family member! One of my biggest dreams is to someday have a farm where I can rescue dogs and other animals and give them the happy, loving life they deserve. I can't wait to meet you and your furry best friend! I enjoy spending my time with dogs and love making them part of my daily routine. My schedule allows me to dedicate time to walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and making sure each dog gets the attention they deserve. I enjoy being outdoors, exploring new places, and going on adventures with Kacey. I'm happy to make time for your dog's individual needs and routine, and I will always do my best to provide attentive and loving care. My goal is to make sure your dog never feels overlooked and always has plenty of attention, affection, and fun! Your dog's safety and happiness are always my priorities. I want every pet parent to feel comfortable and confident knowing their furry family member is being cared for with love and attention. At home, Kacey is part of our family. She's a sweet, friendly, and playful 6-year-old Labrador who enjoys having company. Because Kacey lives in our home, dogs coming for boarding must be comfortable and friendly around other dogs. I believe every dog deserves patience, affection, and care according to their own personality and needs. I will follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, routines, and any special preferences. I also love keeping pet parents updated with pictures and videos, so you can see how your dog is doing, having fun, and settling in. Communication is important to me, and I want you to feel at ease while your best friend is with us!

She’s also really sweet with the dogs, super friendly and easy to talk to, and very flexible with bookings.”

About: I have taken care of animals (mostly cats and dogs) for almost 10 years. I have helped multiple family and friends pets and are comfortable with feeding them meds, walking, and keeping them company, among many other things. Currently, pet sitting is my only job so I have tons of free time on my hands to help people out. It fills me with great joy to be able to be there for someone’s animal when they aren’t around. I prefer to keep the pets at the clients home because I know it is where they are most comfortable. I love being able to make myself comfortable while also looking after the pet.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Lincoln

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Lincoln is $20 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $22 per walk. On Rover, walkers 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 November 2026, there are 4,041 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Lincoln. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Lincoln. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.

The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Lincoln after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.

Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.

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 walker 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.

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

  • 88% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.

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 walker 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 walker 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 walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

walkers 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 walker.
