“2nd time I used her for my cats drop in visits. She did an amazing job and always keeps me updated on how they are doing. She also has been great about trying to socialize my cats who are scared of anyone who isn’t me!”

“She was very communicative and gave Clio lots of attention and care. I received regular updates and photos, which made me feel at ease while I was away. Clio was happy and relaxed when I got back. I would definitely have her watch Clio again.”

“Samantha was just what we didn’t know we needed in a pet sitter! She was fabulous. This was our first time needing pet sitter services and it was a last minute change which worried us. Our worries were put to rest after our meet and greet with Samantha. Sophie dog warmed right up to her and we could see that she felt comfortable right away with Samantha. Samantha gave multiple updates, photos, and during her visits. We are thankful!”

“Our sweet kitty was well looked over and loved on! The communication with Laura & David was also greatly appreciated. Will be rebooking with them in the future :)”

About: I have had pets my whole life! I have experience with cats, dogs, horses, chickens, fish, frogs, turtles, and small furry critters such as hamsters and rabbits. I Have cared for new born puppies and kittens when the mother was not able and elderly pets that need a little extra love. Pets that are very energetic or relaxed. Pets that are having a hard time medically and need fluids or pain medications. I have cared for wounded animals and healthy ones. I'm available most days during work hours. When your fur baby needs love and care during the day while you are away I can be there for pets, walks, snacks, medications, a simple check in and more. Every animal is it's own self and all need different care. When pet sitting while friends or family are at work or on trips I always make sure the pet has a good long session of play, affection, walk or forms of exercise, clean and full water and food dishes. Check for any accidents that need cleaned up or litter boxes that need tending. Then always be sure to double check the yard and home locks are secure before leaving.

“Laura took such good care of our 3 kitties while we were gone on vacation and sent us pictures of them every time she visited them. I would definitely recommend booking with her and I would trust her to watch our kitties again any time. :D”

“She was an amazing sitter, met all demands and even went beyond. She's very consistently a great person overall, and I really appreciate her. I will definitely rebook if needed.”

“Sarah is such a sweet person. She did a great job! She stayed in constant communication with us. Our dogs struggle with fireworks anxiety and she was sure to give them extra cuddles. Will definitely book her again!”

“Nakee was AWESOME! My dog is 13yrs old and requires extra attention. He bonded with Nakee immediately during our meet and greet. She was very professional and attentive to all our needs. Will definitely use her again!🤗”


About: I’ve always grown up around pets whether they were my families, my own, and all the family friends. Animals have always had a special place in my heart. Not saying I’m a professional trainer but I have taught my cat a trick or two:) if you have any specific questions about the care I have done I would love to answer EVERYTHING:) I work as a coach and recruiter so in-between office hours and practices I go home and make sure I give my cat all the love’ns and clean up his litter-box and take him on occasional walk on his harness. Make sure their water is fresh, make sure their feeding schedule is up to date, no messes in the house, hang out with cuddles and enrichment time, and make sure they feel loved:)
About: I’ve owned/taken care of animals since I was a child. I find great joy in the company of animals, making sure they are well taken care of, and teaching them new things. Experience: Cats: 17+ years Dogs: 10 years Ferrets: 4 years Reptiles: 3 years There are other various small animals I’ve taken care of sporadically but I’m always willing to learn more about any type of animal! I currently work evenings, and would be available most afternoons. Please feel free to message me regarding times in advance. Thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you! I treat each, and every animal as one of my own. I am very conscious of how they are doing, and make sure they get the love, and respect they all deserve! Will provide plenty of pets, and playtime with your animals!
About: I was blessed with the opportunity to care for dogs from 2018-2023. I worked at a vet clinic, Meadowbrook Vet Clinic (Peoria, IL), on the boarding side. My job consisted of feeding dogs, cleaning their runs, making sure they have clean water and taking dogs out 4x a day. I also worked in the doggy daycare so I was around dogs for about 8 hours a day reading behavior and monitoring their play. I now live in Springfield and I would love to continue taking care of animals for those who need it! I will be available for your pets between 8 a.m. - 6 p.m. I am available 7 days a week, but there may be a few weekends that I am unavailable. I love playing with animals, I play with a rope toy at home with my pocket pit she is a ball of energy. If your pet has a lot of energy and needs a bit of a run on the walk, I will gladly do that as I am a retired athlete that would love to stay in shape!

“Mary Ann did a great job for our first time with Rover. She was reliable, timely and did a great job with our cat, Pepe. Loved the pictures, the updates and overall, she filled all of our needs and expectations. So glad we found her!”

“Jade has been our pet sitter several times and we have another service booked with her in the future. She is a credit to Rover.com service. Jade offers great care, affection and administers insulin injections to one of our two cats. When we came home our cats were happy and had good care. The best service is peace of mind when we are gone knowing Jade has our home and beloved cats in her care. Thanks Jade for your love, care and responsible service.”
