“Sydnee took very good care of our dog, Gabriel while we were on vacation. Sydnee sent daily pictures and updates about our dog. I will definitely be rebooking with Sydnee in the future!”
“Cayla was awesome! Our plans shifted a little bit as we were navigating travel with our little one, and she was very accommodating. I could tell our pup was happy and well take care of. Our house was exactly how we left it when we returned- so helpful!”
“We came home to happy, calm dogs and a clean house. Amber went above and beyond to prepare the house for our return. Her daughter was fantastic with both dogs and especially helped our smaller dog who has separation anxiety. She had great communication with us as well. I would definitely recommend her and book with her again.”
“Jennifer is wonderful. Communicates clearly and is gentle and soft spoken with my high energy Frenchie. I can go to work knowing he is in good hands. She sends updates and pictures during her time at the house and leaves things in order. I would recommend her.”
“Shay was a very caring and compassionate cat sitter and helped us immensely with our injured kitty. It's great to know we have someone we can trust that can care for Happy and highly recommend.”
“Another wonderful stay from Sarah! She was so understanding and flexible when our plans changed. She took great care of our crazy dog and left our house very clean. Thank you, Sarah!”
“Emi was truly amazing with our pup Olive! We appreciated her strong communication skills and loved receiving pictures throughout the weekend. Truth- Olive ate better for Emi than she eats for us!!😂 We will definitely be booking with Emi again- thank you so much!!”
“Cierra was wonderful. We were away for over a week and for several days we weren't reachable by phone. She handled everything perfectly and the dogs were all very happy. I would strongly recommend using her... and we're already booking her for another job :)”
“Joy is amazing! She stayed with our boys for 4 days and they loved her immediately. She sent us updates throughout the trip and pictures of our pups cuddling on the couch. She left our house clean and tidy which was so nice to come home to. Our pups were happy and well cared for and we will be asking for her help again soon!”
“Ariana did an amazing job caring for Phoebe while I was away. This was my second time having Ariana help out with Phoebe. Great communication and attentiveness. We truly appreciate all of your help.”
“Julia was great! She has great communication and gives updates on the dogs with pictures, which is nice to have while away. I am excited to have found her and have already re-booked for future dog sitting!”
“We were happy with Holly. Very attentive on our meet and greet. Took excellent care of our pets while house sitting. Stayed in touch with us while we were away. She asked all the appropriate questions if things came up that we didn't cover. Went with the flow. We appreciate the fact that she can administer meds if needed. When we came home, everything was as good as or better than we left it and all pets were happy campers. We will definitely use her again. Thank you!!”
About: Caring for pets has been an important part of my life for as long as I remember and I know how important it is that our furry family members get the best care when we are away. From daily feeding, playtime, and training to handling medications, vet visits, trips to the emergency vet, I've done it all. I volunteer weekly at the Greenhill Humane Society socializing shy and nervous cats and have completed a course in pet CPR and first aid. With an 18-month-old boxer of my own, I know all about working with exuberant dogs and puppies and am always learning new training techniques to help with enrichment and obedience. A few things I would like every pet parent to provide me before I care for their pet. We can discuss this, and anything that I missed, when we first meet. - Expected arrival and departure dates and time - Emergency contacts besides yourself - Feeding schedule and instructions, including treats allowed - Health conditions to be aware of - Detailed medication instructions if needed - Name and address of their vet - Closest emergency vet - Pet temperament (fears, anxieties, etc) - Toys and favorite games - Where pet(s) sleep - Where they are and are not allowed in the house or yard (if dog) Dog: - Their potty habits - Equipment such as harnesses, leashes, poop bags, treats etc. - Anything I need to know about their behavior outside of the home (walking, in the car, around other animals and people) - Crate rules (if used) House (if housesitting): - Alarm instructions if applicable - Trash, recycling, and mail/package handling - Location of pet supplies - Location of thermostats, electrical panels, laundry, etc. - Wifi password, remote controls, etc. - Any service professionals who might visit during the stay (cleaners, yard maintenance, etc.) - Expectations around plants, mail, clean-up before your return I'm retired from the UO, so outside of my volunteer hours (~6 hours/week), my schedule is very flexible! I'm happy to work with the schedule that suits your pets needs. Meeting your pet's needs is my highest priority, whether it is playtime, quiet affection, a long walk, or simple companionship. I ask that all pet owners leave detailed instructions on their pet's needs, including what treats they can have, medications required, how they like to play, what actions or situations might cause anxiety, and all information for vet care and emergency contacts.
About: I have always loved animals! I have taken care of many animals of all shapes, sizes, breeds, and types!! Anything you need I can do and will do happily! I am completely available during the entire week I would just have to work around my classes which I have very large breaks in between each for! Whenever I am petsitting I always leave the house cleaner than I found it, and make sure the pets are fed and have clean water and have been taken out and used the bathroom
About: I am an avid lover of animals and take my treatment of them to heart. I can keep your pup or kitty very happy and very healthy. My last old guy was a diabetic with a thyroid condition for the last 8 years of his life (2 insulin shots a day. 2 thyroid pills a day.) I’m very comfortable with giving medicine or shots to any animal. That includes emergency situations or routine management for the fur babies. My schedule is very flexible right now. I’m available most every day except for special occasions. I have a routine cancellation policy, but I’m pretty chill. I have a big fenced yard with beautiful grass and lots of things to smell. My house is single story with lots of open space for zoomies.
About: Hello fellow animal lovers! My name is Shealea and I have over two years combined experience working with dogs. I was a handler as well as a team leader at one of Eugene's premier dog boarding facilities where I gained a plethora of knowledge and experience in all things canine related! My approach is to treat every dog in my care as if they were my own. "Dog's are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole." I am a SAHM so I have a flexible schedule to meet your pet care needs! Please message me if you have any pet care needs outside of my scheduled availability. :) I treat each pet in my care as if they were part of my own family. I am attentive, knowledgeable and understand the importance having a solid line of communication with pet parents.
“Ruby was a lifesaver for us and our 3 dogs + 3 cats. After having a very stressful sitter experience with someone else, we were scrambling to find a last minute sitter who could care for our dogs who have developed separation anxiety and can’t be left alone for too long. Ruby hopped on board last minute, provided clear and consistent updates, cared amazingly for all of our animals, and even went above and beyond with cleaning. She also was able to expertly give two of our animals’ important medications twice a day every day, and let us know each time that it went well so we didn’t have to worry. She provided personalized care for each of our animals, which span from a shy kitty, to a 6 year old 100+ lb Pyrenees with hip dysplasia, to a 9 month old puppy who isn’t easy to walk on leash! Highly recommend Ruby’s care to anyone feeling anxious about leaving their beloved animals.”

Absolutely wonderful experience with Caitlin! She went above and beyond, and we couldn’t be happier! Her communication was fantastic. She was professional, thoughtful and a great house sitter overall. Most importantly, all of our dogs and cats were happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We would absolutely book with Caitlin again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter!
Madison was a fantastic sitter for our pups. We received updates daily and she gave us peace of mind. She was also an excellent communicator from the first interaction until the end of the stay. We came home and the house was in order and best of all we had very happy pups. Thank you for caring for pups, we appreciate you.
Jackson has watched my pup twice now, and he is such an awesome person! He sends me lots of updates and is so kind and flexible. I know my dog gets a bit disappointed when I come home because I am definitely more boring 😅 I am so grateful for your services and love, and I hope to see you again!
Kelsie does an amazing job with the dogs and the house. She went above and beyond and we are so pleased we found her. We are VERY PICKY about our house and even more particular about our fur babies. We were overseas and felt very at ease having her in charge of both our home and our two dogs. Kelsie is one of the best!!
Alyssa and Eve were fantastic to work with. Our pups had the best time with them. We received frequent updates throughout their stay. We so appreciated the special care they took for our guy Dublin. He had an ear issue and had bunch of different medications to take. They ensured he received everything he needed and kept us updated on how he was doing. Lily our other pup gained two new friends and she was overjoyed. The house was all in order and we truly appreciated that when we arrived home after a long trip. We look forward to have them sit for us again. Thank you so much!!
Ellisa took such great care of our senior dog in our home while we took a ten day vacation out of state. She went above and beyond in looking out for our old girl, our fish pond and our home while we were away. We definitely will request her services in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, efficient and trustworthy pet care giver. Thanks so much Ellisa, you’re awesome!
We could not be happier with Eric's care for Sadie (and our home). When we met with Eric for an initial interview, his professionalism was evident; and Sadie snuggled right up to him. His reassuring energy meant she was happy to see us after a week without being frantic. We will request Eric's care again. We are so grateful.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in North Springfield is $43 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $27 and $61 per night. 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 676 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across North Springfield. 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 North Springfield 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 North Springfield 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 North Springfield 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 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.

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.
