About: I’ve been a lifelong pet lover and have had pets my entire life. I’m also a dog mom myself, so I understand the anxiety that comes with leaving your pet while you’re away. I truly believe pets are family, and I’ll care for yours as if they were my own. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs, and I’m always happy to go the extra mile to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and loved. Booking with me means you’ll also receive detailed updates and plenty of photos, so you can feel connected and have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I love using my breaks to step away from the computer, get some fresh air, and take walks with my pup. After work, you’ll usually find me going for a run or getting my steps in with my dog. I’d love to have your furry friend join me! I have a very friendly and playful 3-year-old Bernedoodle who loves making new friends! I have a spacious, pet-friendly home with a yard (not fenced), plus a great, walkable neighborhood where we love getting outside. Your pup will have plenty of space, exercise, and companionship!
“Alexandra was great. She provided prompt responses, we had a nice meet and greet and she provided care for our young cat for a week. We appreciate the photos and updates.”
“Wonderful wonderful wonderful! Michelle is a cat whisperer in the true sense. My Belle warmed upto her immediately & she took great care of her & the house while I was away for 2 weeks. I highly recommend her & can't thank her enough for the love & care she gave my Belle.”
About: I've been pet-sitting for different families for the past three years, and I also have experience caring for animals on a farm. I love being around animals and making sure they're happy, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I'm happy to work around each pet's needs. I make time for feeding, playtime, walks, and giving pets attention and care while their owners are away. I'm responsible, flexible, and enjoy making sure every pet feels comfortable and safe. I make sure every pet gets the care and attention they need, whether that means feeding them, playing with them, going on walks, or just spending time with them. I try to stick to their normal routine, so they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I also make sure to follow any instructions the owners leave me and keep their space clean and safe.
“Grace was great - contacted her on short notice and she was responsive, easy to work with, communicative, and took care of my cats without a hitch. Would definitely work with her again.”
“Sierra house sat for us and was respectful to our house, kept my plants alive (maybe better than I can), and most imporantly took great care of our cats. She was in very good communication with us if our cats needed anything and I felt very comfortable knowing she was watching our house and pets. We will contact her first if we ever need house sitting/pet watching again”
About: For me, pets are more than animals — they’re family. I believe every pet deserves patience, affection, attention, and care that makes them feel safe and loved. I’m responsible, attentive, and happy to follow your pet’s unique routine, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company. I’ll treat your furry family member with the same kindness and respect I’d want for my own, and I’ll do my best to make every visit a happy one! I balance pet care with my regular work schedule and make an effort to be dependable, organized, and communicative with every pet parent. I can coordinate visits, walks, and sitting around my availability, including evenings and weekends when arranged in advance. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, so I’ll do my best to follow their normal feeding, walking, playtime, and bedtime routines. I’ll also keep you updated so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in caring hands! Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I’ll take the time to understand their personality, habits, feeding instructions, and any special needs before caring for them. I’m happy to follow your house rules, keep doors and gates secure, use leashes properly, and make sure your pet has fresh water and a clean, comfortable environment. I also believe communication matters, so I’ll gladly send photo updates and messages to give you peace of mind while you’re away. Every pet deserves to feel safe, respected, and loved!
“Sheila has lots of patience with my crazy cats- 1 hiding and 1 bonkers! She sends pictures that capture their personalities and care. She also watered plants, brought in packages, and fought off some ants. Thank you Sheila!!”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I was a baby, and I truly can’t imagine life without them. I grew up with American Eskimo Dogs and now have two fun, energetic one-year-old Beagles, so I have experience with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I genuinely love dogs of all kinds and understand that every dog has unique needs and routines. In addition to caring for my own dogs throughout my life, I’ve also spent many years volunteering in dog rescue advocacy online, helping support rescue organizations and promote dogs in need of loving homes. That experience has strengthened my understanding of dog behavior, patience, and the importance of providing a safe, loving environment. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping to their normal routine, I’ll treat them like one of my own. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and personalized care while keeping you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing they’re in good hands. I work full-time during the weekdays, but I’m available before and after work, on evenings, weekends, and many holidays. If you’re located close to my home, I’m also available for select lunchtime drop-in visits or walks when my schedule allows. I understand how important consistency and reliability are, and I’ll do my best to keep your pet on their normal routine while providing dependable, loving care. I know every pet has their own routine, and I believe consistency is one of the best ways to help them feel comfortable while you’re away. Before each visit, I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s habits, preferences, and any special instructions so their routine stays as normal as possible. Whether that means sticking to a feeding schedule, providing plenty of exercise, administering medication, or giving a little extra attention to a shy pet, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you’ll always know how your furry family member is doing.
“Lina is an outstanding pet sitter. I was nervous to find a new sitter when we moved to the area due to having several pets with behavioral and/or medical needs, but Lina is extremely skilled at what she does. My nervous and reactive dog warmed up to her so quickly during our meet and greet, and my usually shy kitties came to greet her every visit. Lina has such a warm and welcoming energy. She leaves such thorough reports, along with sweet pictures of all my pets after each visit. She even noted a medical concern that I had forgotten to previously mention. She is so attentive, and I’m grateful to have her care for my pets.”
“Amie was such a pleasure to work with! She was patient, responsive, and timely in her communication, and provided wonderful daily updates. She also takes the best pictures! Murphy is typically shy and takes time to warm up to new people, but from the moment she met Amie, she seemed comfortable around her and even flopped over for her! That comfort only seemed to grow throughout the stay. We came home to a happy, relaxed, and content cat and would happily book with Amie again!”
About: I love caring for all kinds of animals! 🐾 I’m comfortable looking after pets with all sorts of personalities, routines, and special needs. Whether it’s taking an energetic dog on a walk, giving a cat some much needed cuddles, keeping small pets fed and comfortable, or simply making sure an animal has company while their person is away, I’m happy to help! I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs and always do my best to make sure they feel safe, happy, loved, and well cared for. ❤️ I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time for pet sitting, walks, and drop in visits.

I really enjoy getting to know each animal and figuring out what makes them happiest and most comfortable.
About: I have walked, stayed overnight with, given medicine to, and played with animals of all shapes and sizes. I am studying to become a vet so I am an all around animal person! I work from coffee shops a lot so I have a flexible enough schedule to regularly let pets out, feed them, or perform other caretaking tasks throughout the day. I am very adaptable and enjoy taking care of pets in their homes. I like to maintain their regular schedules and be present with them as much as possible during my stay.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - North Springfield
Amelia is awesome!!!! Was our first time trying this service and she instantly put us at ease. Kind, caring, and obviously passionate about taking good care of our furry family members. When she stopped by for a meet & greet, they (my 2 enthusiastic big dogs and one nonchalant cat) immediately sensed she was there to engage and play with them and I knew all would be well, and it was!! Already planning her next visit, she’s at the top of our list. (“We love you Amelia!!” - your new best buddies, Kiara, Dakota, and Hunter)
Patricha did a great job taking care of my cats. She took time and effort to gain their confidence and play with them. She was reliable and timely with her visits and great about following directions for feeding, etc. She went above and beyond to leave things neat and clean. She was great about communicating, and that freed me from worrying. When I came home, I found my cats relaxed and happy. Very grateful, and would hire her again (and hopefully will).
I had a wonderful experience with McKenna! I was away traveling, and it gave me such peace of mind knowing my pets were being well cared for. She was dependable, attentive, and kept me updated, which I really appreciated. It was clear that my pets were comfortable and well taken care of while I was gone. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pets. I will absolutely request her service again!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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 .
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 .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
