About: Welcome to Bed N. Biscuit Petcare!❤️ My name is Shayla (34 years old) and I am excited to share my petsitting journey/business with you. ▪️Get to know me: I was born and raised in Valdosta, GA. In my hometown, I volunteered at the local animal shelter for 4 years working with domestic, exotic and farm pets. I knew then animals was my love and enjoyment. Following my passion for animals, I moved to the city of Savannah where I graduated from Armstrong State University with a bachelors in Biology and volunteered at a local wildlife rehabilitation center. I have learned and developed my Veterinary skills and knowledge from working as a kennel technician caring for pets in a boarding environment then naturally transitioning to a Veterinary technician career at a general vet hospital and then later at a specialty practice that included oncology, neurology, physical therapy, internal medicine and also ER. I enjoy applying my years of experience to the well-being of animals and now offering pet care services. My dream home would be living on a farm but for now my husband (Antonio), our son (Levi) and I live with our pitbull mix (Pixie) and cat (Sir Tom). When not volunteering or fostering, I can be found at dog parks with Pixie or fishing with my husband and son. I currently work part time at a local veterinary hispital and offer drop-in services around my work schedule and boarding in my home. ****Please continue to read to ensure full understanding of my business. Thank you for your interest and consideration. **** ————————————————————— [Bed N’ Biscuit’s Information] ▪️Complimentary Meet & Greet Meet & Greet (one): Drop-in meet & greet are done at the location the pet is needing care and scheduled upon our agreed date and time (video chat option also available). If you would like more than one meet & greet then a drop-in fee is applied. ▪️Drop-in Visits We offer 30 minute and 60 minute drop-in visits for pets (cats, dogs, chickens, fish, hamster/Guinea pig, horses, some reptiles). I care for your pet(s) in the comfort of their own home. Great for potty/play breaks during long work schedules and extended vacations or for more sensitive/elder pets for example. Included in this service (if applicable) is bringing in mail, rotating house lights, playtime/potty time for your pet(s), and poop clean up (using your provided materials), litter box scooping. **Prices vary for small animal care or homestead animal care* ————————————————————— [Bed N Biscuit General Rules] • All pets receiving services must be up to date on vaccines and flea/tick prevention. I’m currently working part time as a Vet Tech M-Th so I offer drop-in and boarding services around my work schedule and am a stay at home mom when not at the hospital. I care for pets in the comfort of their own home and stick to the owners routine as much as possible. All care needs will be met for both owner and pet. Any boarding dogs will receive all care and routine in the comfort of my family home. Boarding is provided 1 per household at a time with a max of 2 pets per household. Please reach out to discuss you and your pets needs.
“Ashley was great! She help me out in a pinch. She and hershey took their morning and afternoon walks together. She patiently waited as Hershey got her “sniff time” in. Worried about the hot pavement, Ashley minimized time on the pavement, utilizing more of the grassy area. Thank you Ashley for being so tender with my baby girl!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats with a variety of personalities, energy levels, and needs. I enjoy making sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while their family is away. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, medication when needed, and plenty of attention and cuddles. I’m working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time of time to care for your pets! I’m available for boarding Friday-Sunday, and weekdays after 1pm I have a fenced in backyard and a friendly dog to keep your pets company. I can easily create your dog if need. At your home I’ll take care of all animals making sure they get the care they need and making sure they have fresh water and use the bathroom.
About: I will treat your babies as well as treat mine! Whether it's an epic high-energy walk, a rigorous backyard fetch session, or low-key couch snuggles, I'm fully here for it. You'll get plenty of daily photo updates to keep you in the loop while you're away. Living with four dogs and a cat of my own, caring for pets isn't something I have to squeeze in—it’s already my whole day-to-day life. My routine is pretty much non-stop morning walks, mid-day sniffing sessions, evening yard play, and endless couch snuggles. Seamlessly fitting your pet's feeding times, potty breaks, and favorite quirks into my daily rhythm is just second nature to me! When I’m in your home, my main goal is to keep your pet’s normal routine so they barely even notice you're gone. I strictly follow your feeding schedules, walk routes, and house rules, while making sure your space stays clean and respected.
“Shannon was wonderful!! She was flexible, and followed my “to-do” list to the letter. She made leaving our new puppy so much easier and she helped keep up with her “training”, which we so so appreciated. I would highly recommend this young lady to anyone needing pet care.”
About: I have been a pet owner for 10 plus years to include both large and small dogs as well as cats and I look forward to the opportunity to help care for your fuzzy family I currently have an open availability weekends as well as evenings and mornings during the week and if need be during lunch hours as well I have access to a large backyard as well as several walking trails and a dog park that is in my neighborhood and of course am always happy to take you pets out on adventures to hiking trails
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I truly believe pets are family and deserve to be treated with the same love, care, and attention as our own! I have three dogs and two cats of my own, so I know just how important it is to find someone you trust with your furry family members. I have a degree in Animal Science and previously worked as a veterinary technician before becoming a registered nurse. With my background in animal care and healthcare, you can feel confident that your pets are in knowledgeable, loving, and dependable hands. I'll treat your pets like they're my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away! I am a registered nurse and currently a full-time Nurse Practitioner student. With 5 furbabies of my own, I know what is like needing to make sure they are taken care of during the work day/week. Being a customer of Rover for quite some time, I would be happy to check in on your fur babies for you and give you peace of mind :) My pets are treated like family, but like all children they have rules :) I will respect and honor any rules/requests specific to your fur baby in order to keep them in their own routines.
About: Hi! I have had dogs since I was born. Older, younger, smaller, larger, much larger. I have been dog watching since around age 14 or so. I currently have one chiweenie (13), my sweet baby, whom I had to leave for a bit because of schooling, though I tend to her weekly. I also volunteer at a nearby animal shelter to help out the understaffed staff with all of their animals as well! I am currently working part-time as of now, but I will be very open as soon as I begin to gain a clientele! Message me or request times, and I will be very happy to come sit your pups! I will mostly be offering client home sittings, as my home is on a non-fenced, multi-acre piece of land. Safety for your pup is very important to me, so we might take a trip to a nearby dog park if they are residing with me for an allotted time.
About: Grew up around animals my whole life and a professional pet groomer that can offer grooming services. Can’t wait to love your furry family members. I work from home during the week and can stop by and take your pets out for walks during the day or stay at home with them. I love going on walks and welcome furry animals to come along! There’s room for a crate to keep them safe at night. Always going the extra mile to keep your pet safe and comfortable.

“Thank you. It’s great to know our two as we call them. Children are well taken care of having such a busy day. It was great to know that you came in and showed them a faction walked them and took great care of them.”

Bella is absolutely handsome down the best walker for our boy! She is very compassionate, respectful, responsible, and sincerely appreciated. She has been coming into our home for a little over three months now and we have never had any problems.

If you want someone you can trust through and through Bella's the one you want!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Walking in Springfield is $18 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $20 per walk. On Rover, walkers set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 1,039 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Springfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Springfield. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Springfield after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
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.
Every walker 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.
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Springfield. On Rover:
- 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
