“A week before our trip our kitty's condition got worse and she required much more care than we had originally talked with Elizabeth about. She took extra time to drop in and walk through all the new things so she'd be taken care of while we were away! We really appreciated all of her updates and she did so much to care for our sick kitty. She even learned how to give her fluids!”

“Renee was very proactive about setting up the meet and greet and thorough in asking how to care for my kittens Vito and Legacy. She has a lot of experience with pets and cats of her own which put me at ease as well. She sent plenty of photos and a video a they clearly enjoyed playing with her. I came back to curious and healthy kittens and a clean home.”
“Amazing pet sitter that put us at ease from the first meet & greet. Eric was very punctual and listened to all our needs and followed our instructions with precision. Our dogs were happy and with the youngest being usually timid around new people. Eric took care to make them feel comfortable and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Would highly recommend!”
“Absolutely wonderful experience. Hannah took great care of our pups during this latest NOVA heat wave keeping us up to date on what she was doing to make sure the dogs were both happy and healthy despite temps over 100 degrees! We already have her lined up for our next out of town trip!!!”
“Lindsey was incredible, and our older gentleman truly enjoyed hanging out with her. In fact, he was quite content versus insane when we got home from the beach. Thank you, Lindsey!”
“Marie is amazing!!! My pets were thoughtfully taken care of and she provided me multiple updates and pictures while I was away! Would recommend and definitely will book again!”
“Everything was amazing! My dogs were very happy when I got home and the apartment looked exactly as I left it, maybe even better. I really appreciated the updates and communication, made me feel comfortable knowing they were in good hands!”
“Andrea is a great house/dogsitter. I booked her for the first time last weekend. She was very responsive and we had a very constructive meet and greet, during which she asked many questions and took copious notes. Andrea reached out to me—without prompting—before she arrived the day of her sitting, to confirm she was coming and what time she’d be there, which placed me at ease. During her stay, Andrea gave me appropriate status checks, including when she left. She left the house in great shape. I would definitely recommend Andrea for house sitting and intend to use her again soon.”
“Erica took great care of our dog and two cats for a weekend. She arrived early in the morning on the day we left to make sure they ate on time, and made sure to allow time to feed them and take the dog for a walk before she had to leave for work on the final morning. She was responsive, sent regular updates, and left the house tidy. It was great to have a reliable sitter!”
“Quiana took such loving care of our pup! We had complete peace of mind and our dog was clearly so happy and relaxed while we were gone. We will definitely rely on her in the future!”
“Kelley was a thoughtful and caring dogsitter for our 12 year old dog. She sent us daily updates, comforted him during summer thunderstorms and genuinely cared about him while we were gone. We were anxious to leave him and are so happy to have found Kelley!”
“Start to finish, Laurie was wonderful to work with; great communicator plus attentive, kind, and patient with my spunky pup (& he’s a handful!) Highly recommend for dependable, no-stress caretaking.”
“I had a last minute work request, and Elizabeth came through at a short notice and was fantastic! She is very well versed with adjusting to puppies and different breeds, and my Juni was more than happy to have Elizabeth. She sent detailed updates- which I more than appreciated as it helped calm down my nerves throughout my time away. I am so pleased with how flexible and accommodating Elizabeth has been (especially as this is my first time using Rover) and would highly recommend her for your pets!”
“Jeana is fantastic - thoughtful, communicative, and took the absolute best pictures of the girls. I will absolutely be banging down her door to have her watch the doodles again and I cannot recommend her more to watch your dogs and cats as well.”
“Ajia did a fantastic job taking care of our kitten Millie! She gave great updates on how Millie was doing each day, cuddled with her, played with her a ton, and made sure to redirect her energy whenever she was up to something she shouldn’t be. Would highly recommend (:”
“Audrianna was a fantastic sitter for my senior kitty, Jackson! She sent pictures and updates often as requested, provided tons of play time, and most importantly, I came home to a happy boy. Highly recommend!!”
“Dana was great. She sent regular updates and photos of my dogs. She took good care of them, including the medicine that they required while she was sitting with them. Highly recommend her.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Lincolnia
Svitlana was great talking care of our house, plants, one dog and one cat. Things went really well overall, just a few little miscommunications but some of those were 100% our fault. Everything was left super clean, and she managed medications for both pets as necessary. Would definitely book her again if schedules align.
Madilyn was so amazing with my dogs. She was able to accommodate my last minute request due to a family emergency. Her communication was great, she was so sweet with my dogs and left my place so clean. Highly recommend Madilyn and will most definitely be calling her again.
I couldn’t have asked for a better house and pet sitter. She took excellent care of both Q and C and treated my home with real respect. She communicated with me every day, so I always knew how they were doing and never had to wonder what was going on. That daily check-in made a huge difference while I was away. Q and C were clearly comfortable with her. She followed their routines, gave them plenty of attention, and handled everything calmly and professionally. I came home to happy pets and a house that felt looked after, not just “watched.” I would hire her again without hesitation and would recommend her to anyone who needs someone they can actually trust with their animals and their home.
Natalia was absolutely wonderful. She housesat for us and watched our three pets last minute over a holiday weekend and I couldn’t recommend her enough. The pets seemed to have a blast and looked so happy in all of the pictures she sent! She communicated multiple times a day, left the house cleaner than she found it, and gave us peace of mind during our vacation. She is amazing!
Kellie continues to be an amazing sitter for my two small Yorkies! I have complete peace of mind knowing they are always in such good hands. This rating and review below is for multiple house/petsitting engagements beginning in June. She is incredibly caring, dependable, and communicative. She keeps me updated with photos and videos, and it’s always clear that my pups are happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I also really appreciate how well she takes care of my home—it is always spotless when I return, which is such a nice way to come home after a trip. After several stays, including longer international trips, I trust Kellie completely. She is reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely cares about my pups. Having someone I can depend on makes traveling so much easier. I highly recommend Kellie and will absolutely continue to book her!

This was our first time leaving our little dog, Artie, with a Rover house sitter, and Eric was outstanding. We were so grateful for his responsiveness, reliability, thoughtfulness, experience, and understanding. Our flight home was delayed and Eric even stayed quite a bit later than expected to make sure the handoff went smoothly for our anxious dog. He was great administering Artie's medication, adjusted easily to his walking and picky eating needs, and kept in good regular contact. Highly recommend him and look forward to booking him again. Thanks Eric!

FAQs for House Sitting - Lincolnia
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lincolnia on Rover is $57 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 9,960 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lincolnia. 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 Lincolnia 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 Lincolnia 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 Lincolnia 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.
