“Brad kept us informed about Jasmin with pictures and messages. She enjoyed her walks with him. We are grateful that Jasmin was able to stay at home where she is most comfortable. We will definitely ask Brad to take care of our girl should we need a sitter in the future.”

“Sara has been great with my corgi, Cersei! She is always on time and has been incredibly flexible with my schedule. She is also very considerate with Cersei and accommodating to her needs for the past few months and Cersei loves her. She will continue to be my go-to whenever I need someone to help with Cersei.”

“Jen is very patient and took her time getting to know my cats. She didn't rush them and they came around and got to know her. She is timely and took care of everything as requested.”

“Valerie was absolutely wonderful!!! She FAR exceeded my expectations! She responded to my request within an hour and had excellent communication with me the entire time. My son is out of town and she went to his apartment to check on his cat, Luna. Luna is extremely shy and rarely comes out for anyone — she barely comes out for me — but Valerie was so patient and gentle with her. She stayed with Luna, sent me photos and updates, and even cleaned out a very unpleasant litter box that I truly didn’t expect anyone to deal with. That alone meant so much. You can immediately tell she has a genuine love for animals and such a kind, caring soul❤️. Valerie is recently retired and clearly does this because she truly loves animals, and it shows in the level of care she gives. I cannot say enough good things about her!! I will absolutely be using her again and again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, communicative, and incredibly kind with their pets. 🐾❤️❤️❤️”

About: Volunteered at a pet shelter and cared for many different dogs with various needs and personalities. I looked after puppies, senior dogs, and even dogs with behavior issues, working alongside dog trainers who taught me how to read canine body language. Flexible student sitter available for walking and overnight boarding. Whether it’s a weekday trek or a weekend stay, my schedule allows me to prioritize your pup’s needs and exercise. I have a BIG fenced yard and two friendly dogs that can keep you dog company. I also have inside and outside cameras to always be able to check on the dogs.

About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs and cats my entire adult life. I currently actively train my dogs at a local Kennel Club and specialize in deaf dog training. I currently own an embroidery shop and work part time. I work my dogs and take care of my kiddos outside of that time. I always enjoy working dogs and helping others. I have a privacy fenced in yard and am able to use my own transportation to pet sit as well. I am primarily available on weekends but feel free to send me any questions.
“We are so happy to have found Brooke! We had to be away for the day a few days after our senior dog had surgery and Brooke came to check on the pups while we were gone. She was very attentive to the senior dogs needs and the other two were really happy to get some snuggles with her.”
“Monroe has been great with checking on our cats! She always writes a great summary of each visit, and takes precious photos! We feel so confident that our cats are getting so much love when she comes to visit :) we are grateful for Monroe, and will definitely ask to book with her for our future travels!!”

“Taylor is absolutely amazing and we will be using her again!! We couldn’t have asked for a better first Rover experience! She took excellent care of Luna and Red while we were away. She made sure they were fed, had fresh water, got plenty of potty breaks outside, and most importantly, gave them lots of love and snuggles. She sent us photos and updates, which really helped us relax knowing our dogs were happy and well cared for. She exceeded every expectation. I accidentally mixed up and changed the schedule several times, and she was incredibly patient, flexible, and understanding throughout the entire process. Luna and Red were clearly comfortable with her, and it was obvious she genuinely cared about them. We will absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy sitter! Highly recommend!”

“Shaelyn was wonderful with our two pugs. She took the best pictures of them (keepsakes for sure!) and communicated well when she was there with them. We came home to happy pups 🙂. We will certainly be reaching out Shaelyn again the next time our pugs need care!”

“Brooke is amazing and always delivers such sweet care to my kitty! She had even gone above and beyond by being gracious enough to bring a package inside if she sees one on the porch! 10/10 recommend!”

“I Highly recommend Abbi, she is very kind and understanding! I know she took good care of my kitties and they both loved her. Even the one who usually doesn’t come put for people let her hold him and cuddle.”

“I am so pleased with the care that Sierra gave my two German Shepherd Dogs. She didn't great job...informed me if some training she did with them and sent pictures of the fun the "boys" had. Thanks to Sierra. I will be using her services again very soon.”

About: I grew up around dogs and I have experience in pet sitting for family and friends. I also have experience in training puppies and senior care. I am currently working part-time and I set my own schedule. I will have plenty of time to spend with your pet! I also love being outdoors and hiking with dogs I have a fenced yard with an indoor and outdoor security system. I prioritize safety and security. I also have an all season room I have used for temporary housing (strays and fosters).
“Not only is Dorothy an excellent dog sitter, but she is a true animal lover! This was confirmed at our meet and greet when she rescued a parakeet that had gotten itself lost and seemed to be begging her for help! It was amazing! Happily, the parakeet has found a wonderful, forever home with Dorothy! She is great!!!”

About: I started in the pet industry in 1999. I managed for Jacks Aquarium & Pets for 10 years. I was the livestock manager at Feeders Supply Fairborn. I also train Horses professionally and have been a member of the local dog obedience club. In addition to extensive training experience, I have a lot of medical experience and have no problem taking care of special needs animals. Also happy to sit for livestock and exotics. I train Horses full-time so my schedule is extremely flexible because I can book on days that are free. Whatever your pet needs I can accommodate. I provide safe positive compassionate handling. Pets in my care are happier and better handled when they leave me than when they began. Let me help you and your pet connect.

About: I’ve helped out family with their animals on and off my whole life. From dogs & cats to horses & chickens! Growing up I never had pets due to my mom being severely allergic. So, as I got older I got into pet sitting to get my fix of animal loving because I have always LOVED animals. Over the past 4ish years I put myself out there on social media in hopes to grow my clientele a little bit (especially in the summer months☀️). I’ve watched puppies, senior dogs, and everything in between. I’ve also had some cats in the mix!🐾 I am a 3rd grade teacher, so I am currently on summer break! I am often in Dayton visiting my boyfriend who is a DPT student, so I have a lot of down time to myself while he’s in class… what better way to spend that than by hanging with your fur baby?🐾 I like to keep your pet’s routine as normal as possible. Walks, feeding times, potty breaks, playtime, medicine, etc., I’ve done it all! Whatever you request WILL be done. I also send pictures throughout my time with your pet(s) so you can see they are in good care🐾🩷
Springfield pet parents share their Rover experiences
Dorothy was fantastic! The meet and greet went great and she kept in communication the whole time we were gone. She was prompt about making sure the house was secure. Our cat normally roams outside, but she noticed he was hanging out under cars in the front, which is not normal, and she made sure to get him out from under and back inside. She was very nice and very responsible. We will def book her again.

Brooke was great!! I was so nervous using rover for the first time, she was a breeze to work with and made us feel very comfortable. I loved the rover cards, she kept us updated and was very communicative. Highly recommend, we will be working together again!

Brooke is amazing! Accepted my last-minute booking and arranged a meet & greet beforehand. Delta loved her right away & Brooke was very patient with her high energy jumping and affection! I felt totally comfortable leaving Delta in her care for a midday potty break while I had a very long day at work. Loved getting photos during her visit. Will absolutely book again if the need arrises!

Berke was great with our pets. We had a last minute rover change and he was so quick and willing to help watch over our boys. There were plenty of updates in both messages and photos, lots of fast communication, and he took care of my dog that needed medication. I would highly recommend him and will be happy to have him as a sitter again.

Sara has been great with my corgi, Cersei! She is always on time and has been incredibly flexible with my schedule. She is also very considerate with Cersei and accommodating to her needs for the past few months and Cersei loves her. She will continue to be my go-to whenever I need someone to help with Cersei.
