“Amanda was absolutely amazing! She stayed 6 nights with our high energy GSP mix and my parents English Setter (who is known to nip people). The dogs loved her! She communicated daily with pictures and videos. She threw the ball all the time for our “ball obsessed” GSP. She even cleaned up the house before she left! We will definitely use her services again!”
“Victory is wonderful! I’m always at ease knowing Victory’s at the house and love seeing all the great pictures of our dog and cats looking so happy. Victory is super responsible and responsive. Definitely recommend!”
“Daniel was awesome! He sat my two dogs for a weekend and was extremely communicative. My dogs were well taken care of and seemed really happy to spend time with him. We will definitely book with Daniel for our next trip!”
“Katie took excellent care of our dogs and bearded dragon while we were away! She had great communication through out and sent pictures! She really went to extra mile when one pup was not feeling great. Thank you Katie!!”
“Great communication, went about and beyond, showed up early when I miscalculated our departure time and did a great job at keeping in touch to let us know the pups were good. We will use her again!”
“I always rave about Liz, but it’s so true!!! She is simply the best when it comes to caring for my pets and home!! She has done dozens of drop-in visits and in-home sitting for me. She treats my pets like her own amd is very respectful of my home. I cannot say enough positive things about her! I recommend her to everyone!!!”
About: I have 2 dogs of my own currently one is 8 and one is 10. I currently work at a doggy daycare and boarding facility. i work 5 days a week less than 40 hours and i’m taking care of animals when im on and off the clock so it seems fitting to become a sitter and walker:) I live in a home with an unfenced 2 acre yard. we have a runner in case the dog isn’t leash or off leash trained.
“Lillian did an awesome job watching Scarlett over the weekend. Scarlett can be pretty anxious and high energy, so I’m always a little cautious leaving her with someone new, but she took to Lillian right away, which says a lot. Lillian was very responsive the entire time and clearly put in the effort to work with Scarlett, not just watch her. That meant a lot to me knowing she was in good hands while I was away. Would definitely recommend her and will be reaching out again in the future.”
“Seriously, THE BEST sitter that we’ve ever had! So sweet to our dogs as if they were her own! The pictures she sent were precious and well shot! Her little letters to us were creative and we can’t hush about her enough! She is a sitter above sitters and will be using her again!”
“Ethan was absolutely amazing with our anxious English Bulldog for overnight dog sitting! He took the time (and multiple visits) for George to become totally comfortable! He was excellent and very knowledgeable about dogs and their personality quirks! 10/10 will be booking him again!”
About: Hi! My names hannah! I’ve been taking care of animals for a little over 5 years, including grooming, pet sitting, overnight stays etc. i have experience in pet restraint, basic training, anything you can think of ive most likely done it! I’m currently working part time at a grooming salon, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! My schedule is pretty flexible & I always figure out how to make things work! I always pet sit at the clients home, to make pets feel more comfortable! I always make sure they feel comfortable & cared for when I’m there, if I ever feel there’s a time they are not comfortable or scared I will call the owner & ask if there’s anything I can do! Safety & being comfortable is a big thing for me, I do require a shot record & up to date rabies vaccine for me & the pets safety!
“My husband and I never used Rover and were very nervous about leaving our babies. Lauren put our minds at ease and took excellent care of our German Shepherds. She is an amazing person and we came home to happy dogs and she went above and beyond taking care of them and my home! I wish i could give more than five stars ❤️”
“Natisha was wonderful! It was a last minute need and she was able to help us out and watch our dog. She sent updates and pictures daily so I knew my dog was in great hands with her. Will definitely use her again!”
“Autumn stayed with our 2 pups and cat. She is excellent!! Several daily updates. Great communication. She is very professional and left us information about how our animals did while we were gone. We will definitely be using her again!”
“Kayden was great! You can tell she has a way of getting pets to quickly get close with her. My pup Roman is battling isolation anxiety, and was very happy to have Kayden come by. Not only that, but she went above and beyond with updates and even keeping my house very tidy! She goes above and beyond. I am super grateful for her and will be rebooking :)”

FAQs for House Sitting - Lincolnton
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Lincolnton on Rover is $41.73 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 1,976 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Lincolnton. 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 Lincolnton 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 Lincolnton 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 Lincolnton 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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 97% 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.
