“I appreciated Julianne’s rover cards with solid info in my kitty’s activity while I was away and she was always responsive if contacted. My girl is a shy one but Julianne got her to warm up a little towards the end which is a good sign for future trips! Also, Julianne was quite flexible with my meet and greet as I had to book her last minute. 11/10 recommend!”

I love animals and have years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments. Whether your furry friend needs a walk in the park, cuddles on the couch, or just a fun day of play, I’m here to provide personalized, loving care. Your pet’s happiness and safety are my top priorities. I’m reliable, responsible, and attentive to every detail to ensure your furry friend feels comfortable and loved while you're away. Plus, I love sending updates and photos so you can relax knowing your floof is in good hands! Let's make your pet’s day extra special—contact me today to see how I can help! 🐾💖 I currently work full-time Monday through Friday 9-5 p.m. on Capitol Hill.

About: Recent graduate with years of experience with a variety of dog breeds — from small dogs to very large dogs. Cat friendly as well! I’ve cared for pugs, shiba inus, belgian malinois, huskies, cattle dogs, and more throughout my life - so I know different breeds & temperaments! I’ve provided them with food/water, exercise, required medication & have taken them to the vet. Flexible with dates, times, and rates for dog sitting and/or walking. Willing to go on longer walks and/or runs with high energy dogs so they can get the exercise they need. I’m able to board pets with me & can stop in throughout the day to check on your furry friends too! I work in the evenings for about 6 hours (4-10pm typically) so I am home most of the day/week. My schedule allows for me to be pretty flexible. I ensure all valuables, remotes, or anything you wouldn’t want to be chewed on is away & the pup has plenty of toys to keep him occupied while I’m away. I can crate your pet, enclose him or her in a specific area, or let them have free range of their living space. I accommodate to your needs & routine so your pets don’t feel too off!

“Elysse truly went above and beyond! My cats got locked in a bedroom with no food or water in the AM and anyone we could have asked to come over was already out of town for the holiday. Elysse dropped by to save my babies from their terrible prison (one was probably asleep and didn't care but the other HATES closed doors and was definitely freaking out). If my cats are stressed, I'm stressed so she not only took great care of my fur babies, but saved my sanity for the day as well.”

“Tara brought Connor and Sterling out of their shells very quickly. They are normally quite shy around new people, but they took to her at once. I had special dental needs for them both and she made sure they were attended to. It's always good to come back to happy, well-fed cats, and that is exactly what Tara made happen.”

About: I provide patient, attentive care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m comfortable with energetic dogs, puppies learning routines, and senior pets who need extra care.

About: Hello pet parents! Animals have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember. From raising family pets of my own to spending the last three years actively fostering rescue dogs, I know firsthand that every pet comes with their own unique personality, energy level, and routine. Over the years, friends, family, and coworkers have continuously trusted me with their beloved pets while traveling, and now I’m excited to bring that same dedicated, compassionate care to your furry family members! Whether your dog is an energetic adventurer who loves long neighborhood strolls or your cat prefers gentle feather-wand games, quiet lap time, and chin scratches, I take pride in providing a safe, attentive, and joyful environment tailored to your pet's needs. I work full-time during standard business hours and am finished by 3:00 PM (free after 3pm). I am fully available for late-afternoon and evening drop-ins, feeding visits, walks, and overnight sitting. In Your Home: Emphasizes respect for client homes, following exact house rules and routines, cat/dog care (litter box + play), and regular photo updates, plenty of walks and snuggles as needed.

About: I started taking care of pets back in college in Denver. What started as helping friends and neighbors with their furry companions quickly turned into a love for providing the best care possible! With 6+ years of experience, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and small animals of all ages and personalities. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or overnight care, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m also great with anxious or senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention. I know how important it is to have peace of mind while you’re away, so I always treat every pet like my own. Let’s chat and see how I can help with your furry family member!! I’m currently available all the time due to having some time off of work so i’ll be able to care more often than normal and open to different availabilities I will adhere to your rules and recommendations. I will take care of your pet as if they were my own and give them all of my attention! i will respect them and your home in order to build that trust with you and your fur baby.

“Katrina was the first pet sitter we have had outside of family members. She is responsive and caring. She was very flexible with the changing needs of our three senior cats and took the time to make sure they got what they needed. She communicated with us during the booking and adapted as needed. We recommend Katrina and are planning to rebook for our next trip.”

Great communication, kind to people and pets. We had to last minute change our trip dates due to a pet injury. Scotty was still able to accommodate us and took great care of our injured dog and two cats. His prompt communication, flexibility, and compassion towards our dog was much appreciated Thanks so much!

Overall the best person I've found to watch my three cats so far! Very reliable and considerate with the times we agree on prior. Additionally, Debra has gone out of her way to make extra visits that were not requested simply because she was already nearby. Clearly loves animals. Very thankful for her help and fully recommend to anyone looking for someone to watch their cats.

Rachel has been wonderful with my tuxedo cat on multiple sittings and has been a life saver on short notice. She followed exact instructions for feeding, play, and litter box clean up. She’s incredibly communicative with detailed notes, quick response times, and photos. She definitely provides a playful and carrying environment for my tuxedo. Her warmth and care of means I can come home to a happy, relaxed, albeit a bit chatty cat.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Lincolnia

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Lincolnia is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $34 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.

As of November 2026, there are 15,666 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lincolnia. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

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

  • 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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 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.

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.
