About: I’ve spent many years caring for a variety of cats and dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. From energetic pups needing daily walks and playtime to independent cats who appreciate quiet companionship, I’m skilled at understanding and meeting each pet’s unique needs. My experience includes feeding, administering medications, grooming, and providing loving attention to keep pets happy and comfortable. I’m dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing environment for every furry friend in my care. Aside from dedicating quality time to my teenage kids and husband, I have ample availability to focus on other commitments. This flexibility enables me to be reliable and attentive, whether it’s for work, hobbies, or caring for pets. I provide attentive, stress-free care by following your instructions closely. I keep pets comfortable with play, cuddles, and routine, while also handling basic tasks like feeding, watering, and cleaning to maintain a happy, calm environment in your home.
“We’ve been using Kelsey for a few months now, and she is always been communicative, reliable, and kind. We enjoy booking Kelsey and recommend her to others on Rover. Thanks for always taking great care of our kitties, Kelsey!”
About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I've volunteered extensively for a local dog rescue. As a mama to a senior pup, I know all about the extensive care older dogs can require. I love working with any age puppers from young to old. As a stay at home mom, I have the freedom to work with your fur baby at any time of the day. Morning, noon, or night, I can he there to take care of your best friend whenever you need me. I will care for your fur baby at your home per your standards. In my opinion, this is the best way to care for your pupper as it allows them to stay in an environment that they are absolutely comfortable in and not moving them to a new and unfamiliar place that could cause anxiety.
“Katherine was incredible while we were away! She was so detailed in the care of our cats, played with them and ensured their litter areas were cleaned. Her communication was excellent and we loved all of the photos she provided. We will absolutely use her again!”
About: I have two dogs of my own who are like my children. One is a senior and the other is 3 years old. I have 20 years of pet care experience and will treat your pets as if they were my own. I know how stressful it can be away from your pets and will do all I can to help them to be happy and comfortable during their stay. I am home and my schedule remains flexible so I will be available for all your pet needs. I walk my own dogs twice per day and have regular play times in my fenced in back yard. Your pup will join us on our adventures and be one of the family. Pets will be free to roam the house and sleep on the furniture just like my own dogs. I have a crate available if your pet is used to sleeping in one. I will follow all of your instructions for your pets care to the T. I know how important it is to keep their routines as close as possible. I have a fenced in yard and there will be plenty of time to run and play with my two dogs. I have dog puzzles, pup sickles, and sniffle mats for activity time as well.
About: My name is Kearstin J. I am 31 and a current member of the Air Force for 12 years now. I have two very, very spoiled mini dachshunds and a 1 year old GSD that need friends and I also love meeting new animals! I've owned all sorts of animals including dogs, cats, ferrets, fish, reptiles, and birds. I have a very big heart and lots of love to give, even if it's just for a few hours or a couple of days. Your babies will most definitely receive love as long as they're in my care. My schedule is very flexible and I look forward to hearing from you! Have a great day! We would get up and eat and relax. Then let them run around in the big yard and get some energy out. Take turns going on walks and eat dinner. They can sleep with me or in a crate! Whatever makes them comfortable. I have a fenced in yard and will have an eye on your babies at all times! I also take the time to let them get to know me and my home when we first meet.
About: I will provide a tremendous amount of love for all pets that enter my home. I grew up mainly taking care of dogs but I have also experienced one cat, two birds, and two Guinea pigs. I've had two litters of Chow Chow puppies that I raised. My most recent pet of my own was 2020 when I welcomed our first Cavalier King Charles Spaniel to our home. Your pet will enjoy their time with me as their pup sitter, whether it's a brisk walk or overnight slumber, each moment is cherished as if they are my own. My personal experience will get us safely through the day, a belly rub a day keeps the fear away. Pet care fits in perfect for afternoon care. I work full time but have time for brisk walks out or a playful pup park run. Weekend sleepovers are fun as well. I currently crate my dog when away and allow freedom when home under adult supervision. When outside, a leash is mandated unless we are at the dog park, until our fence can be completely closed in.
“Halle was amazing! She took such good care of our two cats while we were away, we loved getting daily pictures of them playing and having fun. This was the longest we’d left them for a trip but we weren’t worried at all since Halle kept us updated on them all the time! We will absolutely have her come hang out with them again next time we go out of town”
“After caitlin left one of the cats went around looking for her and seems upset she is not here. So yes highly recommend. She also sends photos of your fur babies durning the visit which clearly showed them being spoiled.”

Springfield cat parents share their Rover experiences
We enjoyed her watching our cat. She sent us many pictures and updates about her drop ins. She also helped me get back online for our robot litter box. Our cat is very shy and she was patient to get her out and give her some cuddles. We will definitely ask her to watch her again!
Kelsey was super communicative and easy to talk to, I felt very safe leaving my cat in her care! There was fresh and clean water in the water bowl when I returned and she kept me updated with sweet pictures.
