Rydia is very caring, attentive, and communicative. She went above and beyond taking care of my three kitties and left a handwritten note which I thought was so sweet. I will definitely book with her again in the future.

Andrew was excellent with our high energy 2-year-old pup! His calming presence was the perfect match for Abe, and we had a happy dog upon returning home. Will book again!

Dana is fabulous and my baby SweetPea loved her time with her. The pictures Dana took of her were just amazing and I'm so happy I picked her to take care of my baby. I look forward to Dana taking care of my SweetPea weekly going forward :) I couldn't be happier and feel at ease knowing my baby girl is being so well taken care of by the awesome Dana!!

About: Hey, friends! Welcome to Waggin' & Walkin'. I've had many types of animal family members in my life. From dogs and cats to a ferret and a guinea pig! I've also volunteered at the Rota Animal Welfare League while stationed in Spain. My duties included feeding, cleaning the grounds, and spending time with my furry pals. There's no doubt that your dog will be in great hands. Whether it's feeding them, walking them or simply relaxing with them to ensure they're comfortable, I'll be there when you can't to ensure they're good to go 💯👍. I have a really great schedule which will allow me ample time to take care of your pets needs. My typical work schedule is from 6am-2pm so any time after that I can assist. From walking to pet sitting, I'll ensure they are loved and cared for so you can relax and focus on what you need to do. As of now I plan to perform the following services: Dog walks, Pop-ins and pet sitting at the client's home. I might add Boarding in the future. When you're not home I will do all tasks that you require to ensure your loved pet is nourished, interacted with and feels safe & happy.

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.

About: I’ve personally taken care of cats and dogs. Previously, have trained a puppy. So I know the calmness and patience needed to care for pets. Also, timely updates are very useful for the pet owner. Thanks. I currently don’t work, so I have a lot of time and availability for pet sitting. Please let me know in advance and I can accommodate feeding, walks, medications, and tasks. I have a beautiful one apartment, so there’s lots of space to freely walk. I lock away cleaning chemicals. There is lots of space to keep familiar pet items near.

We were nervous to leave our 14-year old dog while we traveled out of the country for a week, but David went above and beyond in making us feel comfortable and caring for our dog. David connected easily with our dog, and our dog warmed up to him very quickly. David was always on time and gave us regular detailed updates, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. If we ever need help with our dog again, we will absolutely reach out to David.

Elena was wonderful and took good care of my two boys. I got routine check-ins from her each time she came by and spent good quality time with them. She saved my skin before I was due to be on holiday for 2 weeks in Europe. I would definitely recommend her and would gladly book her again to stay with my dogs.

About: I have grown up with dogs since I was young. I have volunteered at Pet Rescue centers and I have dog walked and was a sitter for many people in my community. I want to become more active and dog walking will help. I love to play fetch, walk dogs and if they are down to cuddle we can do that too! I’m a huge Dog Lover and I will do my best to give your dog a fun and enjoyable time. I am pretty flexible in the evenings every day and I will be available during most weekends. This is something I love to do so please feel free to contact me and I would love to meet you and your furry friend! I’m currently pretty flexible with my schedule. I work part-time from home and I have a morning routine but fairly flexible schedule during the daytime. I enjoy dog walking in the safer areas within the city with plenty of space for each of the dogs to roam, explore and play.

We are very happy we used Emily to sit for our cat Lola. Lola is a shy cat, and can have some food-motivated aggression at times, but Emily handled this so well! She sent great pictures and updates every visit that made us feel that Lola was in great hands while we were away. She also left our house in tip-top shape. We would love to book with her again

Many thanks, Samantha! So grateful we connected here. She’s been so good to and with my dog. He’s a grumpy old guy but she’s won him over :). She’s been great at keeping us in the loop with updates and pics, responsive to what he’s in the mood for (eg walk v hanging in the yard) and keeping an eye on how he’s doing. Really appreciate her working us into her schedule as we quickly became one of her regular clients. Highly recommend Samantha!

Josh is amazing - attentive, kind, and caring with our two big dogs. They get so excited whenever he walks through the door, and after their hour-long walks, they come home happy, relaxed, and completely worn out! We're incredibly grateful to have found Joshua. It's clear how much he cares about the dogs he works with, and it gives us great peace of mind knowing they're in such good hands. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our pups and for being so awesome! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Michael did a great job looking after our dogs and cats. We were gone for two weeks and he was very reliable and responsive the whole time. We were confident everyone was very well taken care of and didn’t have to worry about them while we were away. We will definitely ask Michael to watch everyone again in the future!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - North Springfield

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in North Springfield on Rover is $12.6 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 15,061 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across North Springfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a North Springfield stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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!

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 .

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in North Springfield with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in North Springfield. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.

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.
