1. Anne C.
“We highly recommend Anne!! She really went the extra mile taking care of our sweet but slightly shy kitty Jelly. We got lots of updates and photos from their visits, and Anne spent some extra time with Jelly to give her the chance to warm up. By the end of their time together Jelly was really comfortable with Anne. You can tell she really cares about animals and did a great job for us! We look forward to having you take care of Jelly again in the future, Anne! Thank you for everything!”

About: I have feeding, walking, playing and poop cleaning experience. I have been around small and large, young and old dogs most of my life. I know all are different in their needs but they all need love and I can provide that. I have no other job so I have all the time needed for your pet. I'm available days, nights, weekends and emergency care available. I haven't had a pet not like me yet. I can follow any routine already set in place. I can give extra time and love to any animal. I will not take the care of your member of the family lightly.

“Katt watched my two dogs and one ferret. She was wonderful. It was great to have a farent (farent parent) watch my little guy. Most people don't really know what they are doing with exotics. It was cool to hear she has experience with snakes too. I didn't need her for that, but my neighbor did so it was super handy. Very sweet girl.”
4. Julia P.
“Julia was everything we could wish for in a cat sitter and more! She communicated well from the initial inquiry throughout the entire visit, including sending us pictures of our cat and letting us know how she was doing. Julia has a ton of experience caring for animals and cats especially, and didn't bat an eye when I explained the unusual feeding routine or medicine needs of our cat. I highly recommend Julia for anyone in the Springfield area. You are in safe hands!”

7. Angela J.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats my whole life. I have experience with potty training, walking dogs, and administering medications. I also have senior animal experience. I can do most evenings and weekends. I prefer to go to the pets home for their own comfort. Pet care is part of my daily routine. I prefer to take care of the pet in the comfort of their own home, where everything is familiar and less anxiety for the pet as well.

“I was really nervous about leaving my 18 year old cat with someone else but Ariel put me completely at ease. She was so kind and caring with my cat and completely comfortable administering medication and following special feeding instructions. She also sent me great pictures of my pet each day and was very communicative about how things were going. When I arrived home my cat was content and well cared for. I would highly recommend her for any pet care situation. Thank you Ariel”

16. Beth M.
About: I have been pet sitting for friends and neighbors since I was a child. I have had my own dog for 4 years and know how hard it can be to find reliable pet sitters in the area. Whether you are heading out on vacation or need someone to give your pet extra exercise, I'm happy to help! I have a nervous and reactive dog, so I am comfortable with gentle positive reinforcement and avoiding triggers. I can adapt care to make sure your pet is comfortable and not stressed. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule. I am very available mornings and evenings, and have some flexibility at lunch for short visits. My weekends are wide open and I'd love to take care of your pet! I will treat your home with the same respect and cleanliness that I hope house sitters would treat mine. I can follow whatever rules you normally have with your pet and will do everything to maintain their schedule and sense of normalcy.
17. Gena Z.
“Gena is a literal angel and is always my first choice when I need any help with my pets. She is a quiet and calm person who not only easily connects with animals but finds joy in spending time with them. Last time she house sat for me she spent time trying to figure out what novelty tricks my dogs can do which they loved and she found hysterical. She is also incredibly tidy, every time she has house sat for me the house has honestly looked better when I got home. My pets and I are very grateful for Gena”
18. Samantha L.
“Sam is amazing. I instantly trusted her with all my animals and she took really good care of my dog. She did twice a day visits as well as house sat and she’s worth every penny. She even sent me pics because she knew I would enjoy updates.”
19. Alexis B.
“Alexis took care of our 2 cats while we were out of town. My husband and I were nervous leaving our kitties with someone we didn't know. However, Alexis was very communicative with my husband and me. She sent many photos and texts about how our cats were doing. We also spoke to Alexis on the phone during our absence from the cats. Additionally, Alexis is a Veterinary Technician. The kitties seemed just fine when we returned from our trip.”
