House Sitting Springfield

“I could not have been happier about Laura cared for Roscoe (my dog). She shared with me on a daily basis what they were doing and how he was doing. I am certain there was a definite bond made between them. She was absolutely great. Thank you. Cindy”

“Caroline took such good care of my dogs and my house! I came home to happy dogs and a clean house. She sent pictures and stayed in communication consistently. I would highly recommend Caroline to watch your pets!”

About: With years of experience caring for animals, I'm confident in my ability to provide exceptional care for your furry family members. My background includes caring for a variety of pets, from playful puppies to senior cats needing a little extra TLC. I'm adept at handling all aspects of pet care, including feeding, administering medications, and ensuring they get plenty of exercise and enrichment. I'm dedicated to following each pet's unique routine and will treat your companion with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. You can rest assured that your pet will be safe, happy, and comfortable under my care. I am available weekdays after 4:30 PM and any time on weekends to drop in to care for and play with your furry family members. During my drop-in visits, I'll provide fresh food and water, and, of course, give them plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I'll also send photo updates so you can see how happy and comfortable your pet is in the safety of their own home.

About: I've been around animals basically my whole life. My family has always had some sort of pet, and we currently have a full house of 'em. Over the past few years my parents have gone out of town for a week or so over the summer, leaving me to care for our dog, four cats, and fish (low maintenance but still present!) on my own. I have a lot of free time over the summer and an incredibly flexible schedule! Aside from the occasional doctor's appointment and Saturday night dinner show, I'm almost always available! A big thing with me more than anything is spending time with any animals I'm in charge of. I want to make sure that they know I'm someone they can trust and be close to to stave off any loneliness, whether that be through play or just being around. I'm incredibly precise when it comes to directions and medications, so rest assured knowing that proper and healthy food intake is important to me!

“Megan was an excellent sitter for our dog. She took him for walks, sent us pictures everyday and even cleaned. Our dog gets a little anxious when we leave and she made us and him feel at ease. She will be our first call on our next trip out of town.”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, I currently I have two dogs, and three cats that I take care of along side my family. I grew up rescuing strays with my grandpa and finding them forever homes I currently work full time in fast food. My hours are randomized from 11am until possibly 2am. I would be able to take care of the pet before my shift would begin, as well as be granted a break to see the pet during the day/night. I treat my pets like family. I personally let my two dogs and my cat sleep with me every night. They eat breakfest, lunch, and dinner with before I get to eat.

“Tatum was wonderful with my pup. She was patient and caring for him. She even took him out on an adventure and sent me pictures for updates. He ate and slept 5 minutes back into where I am staying. Would definitely recommend! He is a large boy and handled him perfectly including teaching some training tips, extra bonus. My pup would also add that he loved her giving him treats! Excellent day for pup.”

“Awesome young lady. Made friends with the dog quickly. Just stopped at her work and the dog loved seeing her. She comes back next month.”

About: I love playing with and paying attention to pups. Love to say hi to them every time we cross paths on the elevator in my building! Cats have the warmest place in my heart <3 As a medical student and proud rescue cat mom, pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I start each morning sitting with Ashley while she enjoys her wet food, and throughout the day, she keeps me company—often curled up beside me while I study. We’ve built a calm, comforting rhythm together that brings joy to us both. Caring for her during past UTIs taught me how to gently give meds, but mostly, it's our daily cuddles and quiet companionship that define my approach to pet care: consistent, loving, and attentive. For pups, as the weather gets nicer, taking them for walks is a great study break as well! Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I focus on creating a calm, safe environment that feels familiar and comforting. I follow feeding and care routines closely, give lots of affection, and respect each pet’s unique needs and personality. At home, I am in a 1 bedroom apartment, and pets enjoy a peaceful space and my full attention, especially during cuddle breaks while I study. In clients' homes, I’m respectful, clean, and reliable—keeping pets on their usual schedule, providing regular updates, and always ensuring emergency contact and veterinary information is readily available, so owners can feel at ease.

“Andrew stayed with my babies for the second time. He does a great job with them, they are well cared for, house still looks great when I return, and he checks in. I will continue booking with him and highly recommend.”

“Will definitely reach out to Neva again when I’m in need of pet care. It made my trip so much less stressful knowing my fur babies were in good hands :) highly recommended!”

About: We’ve been hugging dogs since we were kids, and we’d love to hug yours! Penny, Ciel, and our family enjoy hosting furry friends - we take care of them and our pups play hard with them! Please note: *We cannot currently accept bookings for unneutered/intact male pups *We host a large, rambunctious group of pups throughout the week - pups who prefer quiet, calm environments may not have an enjoyable experience here, and we will happily recommend sitters who may be a better fit for your family Hosting pups is our full-time job - your pups become part of our family while they’re here! We spend our days with our guests, playing and chatting with them, and can attend to everyone’s needs regularly throughout the day. Our 24/7 dedication to giving your pups the best experience while away from your home makes us a great choice for day care and socialization opportunities! We accept bookings between 7am and 7pm; we will consider bookings outside these hours on a case by case basis, potentially for an additional cost. Our availability for picking up and dropping off is limited but we aim to be as flexible as possible. Reach out with your needs and we’ll work out an arrangement that works best for all of us! Our entire yard is fenced in - there’s room to run full speed! We can adjust feeding schedules as needed to accommodate your dog’s diet. In good weather, pups are free to go inside and outside at their leisure. We don’t require pups to use crates while we’re gone or overnight, but if you prefer your pup be crated at any time, we’re happy to do that and have multiple available. Male pups will wear a belly band for the first 24 hours of their stay, at minimum - this soft, absorbent band fits around their belly and attaches with Velcro on their back. Belly bands reduce marking behavior, especially in unneutered males. You may bring your own, but we can supply them, free of charge. Using belly bands keeps our home calmer, cleaner, and fresher by eliminating marking behavior and reduces anxiety for future pups by giving them less reason to want to mark over the scent of previous pups. We have indoor and outdoor security cameras in many locations that can be helpful to review if any safety situations arise. The safety of all of our pups is very important to us! (They’re also great for catching fun footage!)

About: My name is Laura. I have been a dog owner my whole life. I have been a Rover sitter on and off for about 5 years and would love to take care of your fur babies while you are out of town. I have owned several special needs animals and am good at working with animals of all temperments. I have experience dealing with dogs of all ages and sizes. I especially love caring for older dogs who may need a little extra care and attention. I have worked with large groups of dogs and am willing to take care of several at a time if you have a large pet family. I have open availability and would love to play with your dog and make sure they are well taken care of. I have a full time job with flexibility. As long as I have about a weeks notice it should not be a problem to accommodate weekday visits to pets. Weekends are no problem. I like to do an initial house visit with the owner to get an idea of what the house looks like and where the pet is comfortable. If we cannot get a face to face meeting first please message me with detailed care instructions to ensure proper care for your pet.

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs and cats and other pets since 1986. Love, trust, patience and high respect with animals are my #1 priority! I have volunteered with Animal Protective League as well as adopted cats from there. I am pretty much a person who takes home a stray animal who needs a home. My family has taken in 20 cats in the last 25 years that were strays on the street and kept them their whole lives. We have owned, to this date, 14 dogs dating as far back as when I was a toddler. Animals are my passion and I look forward to meeting yours! I am currently a stay-at-home mom. I own 11 cats. I am available for long-term and short-term periods. I am flexible with schedules and times and days depend on the client’s needs as well as pet needs. Currently, I am available for walking dogs, watching cats, as well as checking in and feeding animals at the client’s house during the client’s absence. Please contact me for further details and a custom schedule! Currently not providing pet care in my home. Pet care will be provided in the client’s home. When pet daycare services become available in my home, it will be announced!

About: I have volunteered at the Animal Protective League for many summers, so I have lots of experience with cats/kittens, puppies, and dogs big and small. I have a sweet Shih Tzu-schnauzer named Lexi, and she is 12 years old. I adore working with animals, and have taken care of many furry loved ones. From friends to family, they have trusted and relied on me to take great care of their furry friends! My schedule is flexible to your pet needs. Throughout the school week I find time to spend with your furry friends and mine. On weekends I get up early and have ample amounts of time to check in, or walk your pets when needed! I have a large fenced yard, with my very friendly dog Lexi. She can roam, and use the restroom freely (since I pooper-scoop my yard daily), and she has lots of room to play. If your dog needs to be put in or taken of a crate, I can do that. My main goal is that the pets are safe, loved, and keep their tails wagging!
