“Samantha was just what we didn’t know we needed in a pet sitter! She was fabulous. This was our first time needing pet sitter services and it was a last minute change which worried us. Our worries were put to rest after our meet and greet with Samantha. Sophie dog warmed right up to her and we could see that she felt comfortable right away with Samantha. Samantha gave multiple updates, photos, and during her visits. We are thankful!”


“Amazing sitter! I was gone for the longest I’ve ever left my cats and they were so well cared for. I love coming home to happy cats. Lots of pictures and notes provided!”


“Nakee was AWESOME! My dog is 13yrs old and requires extra attention. He bonded with Nakee immediately during our meet and greet. She was very professional and attentive to all our needs. Will definitely use her again!🤗”


“Taylor is the best! She was professional, polite, and punctual! Our sweet Scully loved her and our aloof cat even took to her. If you want a real life Snow White with attention to detail, book Taylor!”


About: I grew up with a dog and have always loved pets and animals of all kinds! When I used to stay with my sister, I would watch her two dogs and take them on walks regularly. I have also watched pets (including dogs, cats, a chicken, gerbils, etc.) for friends over the years. I currently have a very open and flexible schedule! I finished my doctorate program last year and I’ve been studying for my board exams that I need to pass before I can begin practicing acupuncture. I am available most weekdays and weekends! I’m happy to feed, walk, and play with your pet. I have a cat of my own and I know the importance of taking good care of our furry friends! I love both dogs and cats and would be happy to help with either. Detailed instructions and clear communication for care is appreciated.

“Kayla was great- very reliable and communicative. Appreciate the time she sent with my dog & the helpful photos & summaries she shared. Highly recommend and will definitely hire her again!”


About: I have had babies all my life! If you need a loving home for them to visit while your gone-you found the right person! I have been bringing in babies for others while they are gone on family trips the last 5 years. I currently work part time. This allows me the freedom to help out others that may want to plan a get away. I am will to pick up and bring your baby back. With in reason (30 miles) if further we can set up a meeting point. I have a blue tooth collar for the dogs as I don’t have fenced in area at this time. We are in the country with plenty of room to play!

“Taylor was able to take care of my fur babies on super short notice during a holiday - I can't thank her enough for her quick responses, flexible availablity, and the overwhelming care she puts into loved fur babies”


About: When I was 12 I started walking dogs for my neighbors and the elderly people around my neighborhood, I absolutely love dogs especially big ones! My family always had so many dogs growing up, so I feel very comfortable around pretty much any dog, I feel comfortable bathing and walking and playing any size or type of dog! I currently work in the morning during the week, I usually get off at 2:00pm or earlier. I am free almost every weekend, and any weekday after 2:00pm at the latest I currently do not have any dogs, but I do have three cats and other types of small pets and lizards. When I am watching over your fur baby I will treat them as my own, and give them a fun time with lots of play and attention, while still following the parents requests. This is the first time I’ve lived in a home without a dog so I would love to be able to spend some time with your fur baby!

“Will absolutely be choosing Abby again. He experience with collies made me a lot more comfortable leaving my two fur babies home alone with her to check in on. As an anxious pet-owner she made it easier and her communication made me feel so much at ease.”


“I was absolutely adored the brief yet thorough notes Anthony would post on the Rover cards for my two fur babies after each drop-in; as an anxious pet-owner it really kept me at ease and it was nice reading the little adventures they would get up to. I was quite pleasantly shocked as no one had done this before. He even kept the house tidy if there were any accidents or naughty chewed areas. As well as took the initiative to put on some doggie music so they didn’t feel so alone. He was pleasant and professional, yet empathetic and personal all at the same time which I greatly appreciated. Will definitely be using Anthony again in the future and I recommend you do, too!”


About: As a family inherited skill set, I began dog sitting and cat sitting when I was just 15 years old! Over the years, through word of mouth and genuine care, I’ve grown to love DOZENS of dogs, cats, rabbits, and even Guinea pigs through my services. From neighbors to family, church friends to local students, my name was the one passed around in my hometown! Now, I’ve moved to Springfield for a job in social services and am looking to rebuild my clientele! Special skills include: Puppy training Senior care Nail trims Bathing and grooming (went to school for this many years ago, but decided to go a different route!) All around Snow White energy I currently work 7am-3pm, but my days can be flexible and even remote! I’m around on the weekends and even have two dogs of my own so am well adjusted to configuring their schedules—feeding, walks, medicines, etc. My life adjusts to the critters, not the other way around! I have a fenced in yard with two friendly pups who love to play! We have lots of toys, but are very careful to keep an eye on the dogs when playing so no one gets hurt!

“This was our first time using Kayla as we normally board our dogs, but our go to and backup boarder we’re both full and due to a previous instance I don’t use any other boarders. Kayla did awesome! She communicated throughout her visits, kept us updated and even sent us several photos, where it was obvious our pups were enjoying her being around! We will use Kayla again and I strongly recommend her - you’ll pups will appreciate it.”

“Margaret has loved animals all her life; she wanted to be a vet dr since she was very young. She’s such a sweetheart with animals & they sense her good heart toward them. Margaret is conscientious of their expressions & body language to make sure they are happy or possibly needing something. She has pet sat for my daughter’s two dogs, Max who is nervous & Rylee who wants a lot of attention. They loved her & are still excited to see her even after not seeing her for a long time. Margaret is so loving & excellent in her care of her cat Neko (& all animals). She would make a great pet sitter. Your pets will be in great hands & Margaret will care for them as if they were her own. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter.”

Chloe M.
“I can not say enough good things about this wonderful young woman! My animals are my babies and I want, and expect, anyone I trust to their care to love and care for them as I would. Chloe does EXACTLY that. She is an animal lover herself so she knows precisely the kind of pet caregiver someone else would want. Not only does Chloe follow instructions given to her for a sit/stay, she goes above and beyond expectations. Every. Single. Time. She maintains contact, going so far as to send photo updates and an occasional video, to let you know that your pets are not only being cared for, but they’re happy and thriving too! That can be an especially daunting feeling when you have animals with anxiety but Chloe truly seems to have a trick for everything she encounters to make my fur babies feel at ease and like I’m not even gone. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend her to any one I know, and I have. I’m not sure what other pet caregivers have to offer, but I can say, you likely won’t want to use another after Chloe. 10/10 all the way around.”


Beka T.

“Beka did a wonderful job with my dog. She sent frequent picture updates and made sure he was exercised and well cared for while I was away.”


Lexi B.

“Lexi came quick to Rosie’s rescue when I couldn’t get away from work! So happy to have found her!”
