About: Hello! I’m Sarah, your dedicated pet sitter based in Springfield, MO. As a passionate animal lover, I specialize in caring for all types of pets, including cats, dogs, and even fish. Whether you need dog walking services or overnight care for your furry friends, I’m here to help. I understand that pets are family, and I treat them with the love and attention they need. My goal is to provide a safe and nurturing environment while you’re away. I offer pet sitting services at an affordable rate of $50-70 daily, depending on the number of pets and their needs. This ensures that your pets receive personalized care, regular exercise, and companionship while you’re busy or traveling. If you are a pet owner looking for reliable care for your sweet animals, I would love to hear from you. Please feel free to message me if you’re interested in my services. Let’s make sure your pets are happy and well-cared for! I work full time and have the most availability in the evenings and during weekends. I am more than happy to collaborate to determine if I am available for your pet-sitting needs. :) I am happy to provide care in your home or offer boarding services in my apartment, where enclosed dog park areas are within walking distance.
About: Hi everybody! My name is Landri and I am a fur mom, aunt, sister, friend, and god-mom to many fur babes. I grew up with indoor and outdoor cats and dogs my whole life and have always had a love for animals and their unique personalities 💕 I currently have a fur baby named Denver who is a half lab/half golden, and he is 90 pounds of love & a little bit spoiled (judging by the amount of treats & toys in our house that he would love to share)! He loves all animals and would be happy to help me take care and have fun with your fur babies. Aside from having my own dogs and cats, I have helped to take care of my family’s, friends, and co-workers pets over the years. I have a big yard that will give your pet(s) plenty of room to run and play and am happy to accommodate to any needs they have. Having a fur baby myself, I understand the importance of having someone who will be reliable and treat your pet like their own. I will happily send photos and updates daily so you don’t miss them too much and know they are in the best hands. I do work during the day (M-F), but my boyfriend who is also a pet lover works a swing shift and has 4-5 day breaks and/or a mostly opposite schedule from myself. I have cared for pets of all sizes and breeds and love each and every one! I look forward to meeting you and your loved fur babes!

About: Hi! My name is Elle and I have been a dog lover for as long as I can remember! My soul dog, Rory, recently went to heaven- so our home is pet free! I have dogs of all sizes and all different breeds. I have never had problems with any dogs nor had any issues. I feel that I stand out because I have a natural love for dogs and will love your animal like they are my own. I have taken care of dogs of all ages and am comfortable with all of them. I love to be outside, whether it be playing, walking, going on runs, etc. I hope you choose me the next time you are looking for someone to take extra good care of your animals!
About: I love animals, I've had many different types of pets throughout my life. I've had two guinea pigs, a hamster, many goldfish, and dogs. I don’t know have a dog or cat at the moment. Looking forward to pet sitting and walking. I may not have professional experience with animals but I do know how to show them love which is for the most part all animals need to feel wanted and appreciated. Something that sets me apart from other sitters and walkers is I love animals and enjoy being around them. Some people will just get this job for the extra cash but I do it because I love animals. I think it is awesome that they have this program so that animals won't be left at home alone and such. I currently only have a part time job, so I have plenty of time to care for furry pets. Really looking forward to meeting your furry pet. I have a studio apartment and it is just me that lives there. I also have a lot of room around my apartment to walk dogs.
About: I have house sat with dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, birds and horses in the past. I look forward to meeting your pet and hopefully exceeding your expectations of service. I enjoy meeting new furry friends. I work full time. My afternoons and evenings are open for pet care jobs. With advance notice, other schedule needs can be discussed and hopefully accommodated. A dog walking visit would involve checking on the pet, providing water or food if requested and making sure the pet gets a bit of attention and care during the walk session to maintain a good experience for your pet. I usually talk a bit and encourage good behavior and cooperation. Patience and not rushing the interaction is important. A brief walk would be around 15 minutes.

“Carolyn did a fantastic job taking care of our two cats while we were out of town! We were hesitant because we had always had family members watch our cats and had never used a service like this but after the great experience, we won't hesitate to use Carolyn again in the future! We appreciated the pictures she sent us and she communicated well every time she stopped by. We were able to enjoy our trip without stressing about how our cats were doing because we knew they were well taken care of. Thanks Carolyn!”


About: Hey there! I’m Kristen. I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was in elementary school! I have experience taking care of and owning small and large dog breeds, cats, and even farm animals like goats, pigs, turkeys and cows! I also worked at a local public alpaca farm, Majestic Meadows, and provided love, care and husbandry for a variety of exotic and farm animals, including horses, donkeys, alpacas, llamas, and more! I have experience working with animals who have special dietary needs, special medication needs, senior pets, and pets who have physical disabilities and need extra care and aid! I can brush your pet, clean their ears and teeth (if they will let me and it is safe to do so), and give them a simple bath if you would like! Lastly I do have experience in basic behavior training for dogs, including click/reward training to teach sitting, lay down, and release, however I am NOT a professional dog trainer and cannot sit for dogs that experience highly aggressive behaviors or biting towards people. I am currently doing Rover full time, so I will have plenty of time for your pets needs and for playtime, and am able to make sure that bathroom breaks and meal/snack times are not spaced too far apart :) For house sitting I cannot stay full time around the clock as I often have doctors appointments I need to attend, so I may have to come and go, but I would not be gone for longer than 3-4 hours at any given time, so if your fur baby can be alone for 3-4 hours, then I can accommodate for that 😊 I make sure to closely follow any given instructions for pet care, including instructions for a special diet or medications, and if the pet needs any special needs care or aid with grooming! I like to go over the details with clients of how their pet may like to play, how they get along with other animals/people, how they like to be pet, how they do on walks, what their favorite snacks are, and of course any special needs such as oral medications, special dietary needs, etc… to make sure that I am offering the highest quality of care and comfortability for their fur baby! I also make sure to pay close attention to timing between meals, snacks and potty breaks so their pets don’t become uncomfortable or have any accidents. Lastly, I make sure to give lots of love and attention to their pet so they don’t feel lonely!
“Emma communicated with us and was prompt with arriving at the scheduled times. We enjoyed the pictures she sent and our dogs were seen playing in the yard as they would if we were home. Emma was professional and seemed to enjoy our dogs. We will use her services again in the future.”
About: Hi! I’m Maria, and caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s something I’ve dedicated years of my life to. I have over 10 years of hands on experience working with dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a slower pace, I understand that every pet deserves care that’s tailored specifically to them. My partner and I work together as a team, which means your pets receive twice the attention, care, and reliability. Having two experienced animal lovers allows us to be flexible with scheduling and provide consistent, dependable care for your pets, whether you’re away for the day or an extended vacation. I offer: • Dog Walking • Drop-In Visits • House Sitting • Overnight Boarding • Puppy Care • Senior Dog Care • Medication Administration (if needed) • Lots of playtime, cuddles, enrichment, and exercise! I’ve cared for everything from tiny toy breeds to giant breeds, including dogs with anxiety, high energy, special routines, and unique personalities. I also have experience with cats and other household pets, so if your family includes more than just dogs, they’re in great hands too. When your pet stays with us or we care for them in your home, they’re treated like family. We stick to their normal routine as closely as possible because we know consistency helps pets feel safe and comfortable. Whether that means long walks, endless games of fetch, quiet cuddle time, or simply keeping them company, we adjust our care to what makes your pet happiest. As pet owners ourselves, we understand how difficult it can be to trust someone with a member of your family. That’s why communication is one of our top priorities. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, loved, and well cared for. Our goal isn’t just to watch your pet. We want to become someone both you and your furry family member can trust for years to come. We’d love the opportunity to meet you and provide the same love, patience, and attention we give our own pets every single day. We can’t wait to meet your best friend! 🐾 One of us works full time, however the other stays at home and focuses on animals and etc. We’re always able to be flexible and accommodate everyone’s needs We always make sure to meet prior to bookings and if needed or wanted to I do like to send pictures and videos of your fur babies while in my care. I know everyone misses their little babies.
“Aliyah is absolutely the best! She has learned my dog and gives him what he needs regardless of what I may have thought he needed. He literally SMILES when she takes pics of him and my anxiety and dog mommy guilt vanishes. I just love how they love each other!”

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.
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 New Franklin 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!
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
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 .
