“I highly recommend Enrique as a dog and house sitter! He was incredibly attentive to my dogs, making sure they were well-cared for, walked, and happy while I was away. He kept my house spotless, which was a great bonus. Enrique also communicated frequently, sending me regular updates and photos of my dogs so I could see how well they were doing. It was clear that he genuinely cared about them, and it gave me peace of mind to know they were in such great hands. I’d absolutely trust him again for any future dog sitting needs!”
“Marissa and her son are fantastic! They communicate and send pictures often. She follows our detailed care instructions. Her knowledge as a vet tech means our two dogs are in very safe hands. She also takes good care of our house and makes sure it is clean and tidy upon our arrival. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter they can trust their pets and house to.”
“Our dog Bo loves Sarah and we’re so happy he feels comfortable around her. He’s pretty high energy so she will take him outside and play fetch which is his favorite! She’s also really patient with him because he can be a little temperamental and we appreciate that!”
“Jackie was excellent - very communicative, caring, trustworthy. No issues at all and she left the house in very good condition. Dogs were well cared for and I would definitely recommend her. We will be using her again!”
“Jaylen did an amazing job with our pups while we were out of town! She followed their routine to a T and made sure to send us updates regularly. We know who to reach out should we need help again in the future. Thank you Jaylen!”
“Great sitter!! She went out her way to make sure my pups were taking care of. She is very detail oriented and like a ray of sunshine. Will definitely book again and highly recommend!”
About: I love animals, I am very meticulous when it comes to pet care and what needs to be done for them to thrive, be safe, and healthy. I am a firm believer that a pet is a vital part of a family and will always treat them as such. If you have any special needs or requests for your pet, no matter how complex or intricate it might be, I will be happy to do so to in order for them to feel comfortable and for you to breathe easy knowing your baby is taken care of with the upmost care in your absence. Pet care fits into my daily routine because I am responsible for my cat Pepe from hygine, feedings, play time, vet visits, and anything else he might need to thrive. I am a substitute teacher and don't always have the opportunity to work. This would be the perfect way to get extra income with my free time that I would absolutely love doing. Whatever needs to be done, will be done in a timely manner and according to schedule. I would take care of any pet as if it was my own, because that's what they deserve. I have always loved animals and would thrive in a role where I could help them, meet their needs, and get some quality time with them.
“Caroline was an amazing pet and house sitter. Not only did she take excellent care of our cat and dog, she also tended to our backyard chickens and ducks! On top of all that, she kept the house so tidy that we could hardly tell she had spent a week in our home. It was so comforting to come back after a vacation to find our house and pets exactly as we had left them. We will most certainly book with Caroline again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and attentive pet and home sitter.”
“I cannot recommend Joanne enough! I had a last-minute family emergency and she stepped in to take amazing care of my dogs. She was incredibly communicative, kept me updated the whole time, and my dogs absolutely adored her. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. I will definitely be booking Joanne any time I need a sitter!”
About: I have taken care of dogs for almost 5 years. I love getting to know them and seeing where they are and not forcing them to be friendly I work in the morning and get off around 4. And have all the free time in the world. I love helping with animals. I also have lunch breaks where I can stop in and check on your fury loved ones I truly love hanging out with them until I have to go. They just need a friend or sometimes just someone in the house they are like little babies that I cherish with my heart
“Beshoy was excellent with our two high-energy pups. Our big dog can be reactive towards other dogs and I felt completely confident with him walking / feeding him. Thank you for giving us peace of mind while we were on our trip! Loved all of the photo updates”
“Tally is so sweet and kind! She kept great communication the whole weekend and really loved and cared for my three dogs. The house looked awesome when I came home too! Will definitely use her again.”
About: Hi! My name is Diana. I am a caring and responsible pet lover living in San Diego. I have experience caring for my own dog and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable. Your pet will receive lots of attention, love, and care in a calm home environment. I welcome small and friendly dogs and will treat them like family. I am home most of the time, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I can provide regular potty breaks, feeding, playtime, walks, and lots of attention throughout the day. I am available on both weekdays and weekends. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable home environment for pets. I have a fenced yard and always supervise pets carefully. I follow each owner’s feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions. If pets need to be separated for safety or comfort, I have enough space to keep them in separate rooms.
“Emily has turned into a first choice for our fur baby. She makes him feel like a rockstar with walks and cuddles and play time and his own photo shoot. Emily is the main reason I believe in Rover!”
About: Although I have no official skills and training...yet, but I grew up caring for animals. For 18 years I lived on a small farm in Michigan where we raised chickens, rabbits, goats, alpacas, dogs, and cats. These animals were my beloved pets and would get shown at the county fair every summer. Since moving away I have accumulated three cats of my own. As I continue to figure things out and gain experience I can promise that all pets under my care will be well cared for, loved, and that all owners will receive top notch communication. I have just separated from the Navy and am unable to get another job due to some traveling I have planned over the next couple months. I am free all day pretty much any day! I do not offer sitting or boarding in my home due to my cats not appreciating outsiders, but I am more than happy to go to your house and do whatever is needed!
About: Hi! I’m a Zoology student working toward becoming a veterinarian, as well as a Military Conservation Agent veteran with hands-on animal care experience. I’m especially comfortable with dogs that need a little extra attention, including large breeds, anxious or reactive dogs, senior dogs, and pets recovering from medical procedures. I have dog training experience and am confident handling dogs with different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. My animal experience also includes working with wildlife such as bears, large cats, wolves, and coyotes, including emergency animal care and working alongside veterinarians. For pets with medical needs, I can administer medications, follow veterinary care instructions, monitor recovery, and watch closely for changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, or overall condition. I understand that emergencies and last-minute situations happen, so I may be able to accommodate short-notice bookings when other sitters are unavailable without meet & greet. My priority is always to keep your dog safe, comfortable, calm, and well cared for while giving you regular updates and peace of mind. As a full-time student, I have a flexible schedule outside of my lab sessions. I’m available for early mornings, evenings, and most daytime hours, and I can often adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs. I may also be available for last-minute or short-notice bookings when my schedule allows. I have professional experience handling high-drive, reactive, and challenging animals, including wolfdogs and wildlife. I’m confident working with strong breeds and know how to handle them safely, calmly, and with good judgment. I always respect your home, property, and your pet’s routine. During walks and stays, I use safe handling techniques and closely monitor your dog’s behavior and condition. I can also provide basic first aid, administer medications as instructed, and support established training or behavior routines when needed.
“Sabrina was absolutely amazing! She took great care of my sensitive boy while I was gone, sent many updates, and stayed on top of his medications. He was so happy when I got home. I highly recommend her!”
“Kaitlin took such great care of my pets, and my apartment! I’m always nervous to have someone new stay in my space and care for my animals, but Kaitlin’s caring and kind demeanor made me feel at ease :) She sent me updates and pictures daily, and was easily able to follow all the instructions. I know my pets really enjoyed spending time with her, too. She also left my apartment tidy and clean, which was so nice to come home to after a long trip.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lincoln Acres
Vanessa was wonderful! She was quick to respond, communicated throughout the week, and sent lots of pictures and updates, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. She took excellent care of our Labs and our home. We would absolutely book her again!
Alynna looked after our dog, fish and house while we were away. She provided frequent updates and was responsive so we could relax while we were away from home. It was clear everything and everyone was beautifully and thoughtfully cared for. Absolutely recommend!
Eileengrace cared for our for dogs and home and was amazing! She was available last minute and even squeezed in a requested meet and greet before we left. Her communication is great, she is eager to learn about your pet(s), and follows through. Overall, she is genuinely kind, polite, and most of all, the dogs loved her!
Arianna was absolutely wonderful with our dog! From the moment we met her, we could tell she genuinely loves animals and would treat our pup like one of her own. She was reliable, communicative, and kept us updated with messages and photos throughout the stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Arianna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog sitter. Thank you for taking such great care of our boy!
Jenna was absolutely amazing with my two animals! She always made sure they were safe and well cared for. I got lots of tickets every day and honest-detailed updates. Jenna went above and beyond, and truly has such a touch to her. My cat, who hates people, warmed within just a day of Jenna arriving. I felt so relieved to have someone so amazing care for them. Thank you again from me, Moon, and Luna! 🐶🐈⬛
Beth has been so great! Frank was thrilled to see her again, and she clearly enjoys spending time with him. She is great about following my directions, and takes such good care of.him and our home. It is so important to be able to trust the person staying in your home and caring for your canine family member. So happy to have Beth as our sitter again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Lincoln Acres
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lincoln Acres on Rover is $51.06 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 6,171 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lincoln Acres. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Lincoln Acres walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Lincoln Acres maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Acres 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!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.

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.
