About: I always been involved in dog care; that's why we fell in love. I take care of the dogs of our families, friends, and neighbors for long time ago and usually when we see any dogs living on the street we tried to find a family Im working Part-time but I have time to play with them or take care of them. Im really happy with them Actually I’m trying to be at home always bc we have 3 bebes to care I have space, a porch and front porch our house is very comfortable for them and we always think about them y we love to go to the park
About: I’ve always had a special place in my heart for animals. I see “pets” as people; they are not just animals; they are family. Ever since I was young, neighbors, family members, friends, and even my former cheer coach have trusted me enough to care for their pets. I have experience staying in clients’ homes for extended periods of time, making sure their pets are fed, walked, loved, and given plenty of attention while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to have someone you can fully trust with your baby, and I always treat every animal I care for as if they were my own. I grew up with animals in my house. We’ve always had Dachshunds (Wiener dogs) and multiple cats at a time. Even though I’ve never had a big dog of my own, I’ve been a sitter for many family friends with black labs and golden retrievers. I hope one day I’ll be able to have one of my own! I’m currently a SCAD student who just finished her 5 week summer courses and I’m looking for ways to make some money before school starts. My weeks are fully free without class. I can take your dogs on walks or play with them at the dog park. I have also previously walked a cat in a stroller, so if that’s something you’re interested in doing, I would. I do live in an apartment on downtown, so I don’t have much yard but there is some outside my building. We don’t have a big backyard which is a bummer. Sometimes military aircraft fly by our house and tend to be very loud for animals who have a hard time with noise. But it is close to Forsyth park!
About: I have had experience caring for dogs ever since I was little. I currently own one 2 year old spayed female miniature schnauzer who loves other dogs! I am in Pharmacy school with UGA and live in a house with a fenced in yard! I have a lot of experience pet sitting for all sizes and breeds of dogs. I have no problem administering medicines and completing any extra tasks you might need. I will go above and beyond to care for your dog while you are away! I am currently enrolled in 14 credit hours at UGA. I usually have around 2 or 3 classes a day with plenty of time in between. I can visit multiple times a day and also stay at your house overnight! I am extremely attentive and able to pick up on signals from your pet to make sure they are safe and loved. I will follow all rules to keep your house safe and clean while I am there. The safety of your animal is my top priority and I will clearly communicate any issues as soon as they arise.
About: I love all animals and my biggest goal is the give you and your dog an OUTSTANDING Rover experience. I will talk to your furry friend, play with them, walk them, and provide any additional care as necessary. I am here to make your life easier and your dogs life worth woofing about! I don’t have my own pooch right now, but with Rover, I am able to get all the face licks and wiggles of joy I need, all while helping others and making some extra cash. Loving what you do directly correlates with the quality of service provided - I love what I do and nothing in life is more important than that. I currently work full time Monday-Friday with an hour lunch break. I can sleep over your place, give your pet all the cuddles they need, and come for the afternoon walkie! (If close enough to my work/if they need it) I go to clients homes, am able to spend the night with your pets, do their morning routine, and come as needed in the afternoon during my lunch break.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Springfield is $33 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $44 per visit. On Rover, sitters 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 October 2026, there are 1,113 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Springfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter 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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Springfield. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters 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 sitter 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 sitter 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 sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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 sitter.
