About: I have loved and cared for dogs and cats my entire life, and I’m especially drawn to shy, timid, or nervous pets who may need extra patience. I have a calm, non-intimidating approach and enjoy earning an animal’s trust through kindness, affection, and consistency. I’m comfortable walking, bathing, brushing and grooming pets, and animals in my care are treated like family and welcome throughout my home. I’m also very comfortable with senior pets and understand that they may need a slower pace, extra attention, and lots of reassurance. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life, and caring for animals is something I truly enjoy. I love spending time with them, whether we’re walking, playing, relaxing together, or just keeping each other company. I’m happy to give each pet the time and attention they need and will follow their normal routine as closely as possible. I can he as active as you want me to be, including hiking, going to parks, anywhere you like! I can also stay at home if your dog has low energy or special needs. Pets are welcome throughout my home and are treated like part of the family. I especially enjoy caring for shy, timid, or nervous pets who may need extra patience. I have a calm, non-intimidating approach and give them the time and space they need to feel safe and learn to trust me. I’m comfortable walking dogs and helping with bathing and basic grooming, and I always follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, exercise, medications, routines, and house rules. I do have a fenced yard and would never leave them alone.

About: My very first job was working with dogs. I’ve always had a passion for the fur babies! I have a 5 year old pit bull who absolutely loves making new pup friends and a 12 year old daughter who adores all animals! I work Monday-Friday between 9am-5pm but make sure your fur baby is tended to before and after work just as I do my own :) I have a fenced in yard which helps make sure they have lots of space for running around. During the daytime hours while I’m away, the dogs are kept safe in separated areas of the house but are always left with a comfy bed, food and toys. The dogs have free roam of the house during the day and are either kenneled (if crate trained) or separated when not being watched directly. Dogs are let out in the fenced in yard multiple times a day and are given tons of attention :)

“Paul is a wonderful addition to my dog’s routine! I was scrambling to figure out what to do on my 12 hour days with my newly adopted rescue female pit mix when classes started this Fall. After reviewing a few profiles, Paul’s really stuck out as someone with both passion and genuine knowledge about dogs/dog behavior. I asked him to come meet my dog before we officially booked to ensure that she reacted well to him. Within the first few minutes, my dog was on her back requesting belly rubs. Needless to say, they hit it off! I feel very comfortable with Paul and SO pleased with how happy my dog looks in the pictures I get from their weekly walks. Even when she refuses to go outside in the rain, he spends time hanging out with her so she still gets some attention. I couldn’t be more appreciative and I’m sure my dog would 100% agree!”

About: Although I have less experience in dog care in comparison to taking care of cats, I live an active lifestyle and am fully capable of going on walks with any dog’s typical walk regime. As a student who’s home for the summer, I have a flexible schedule I dedicate to spending time with my or any of my friends’ pets. I care for pets by referring to the owners and following any procedures based on the pet’s needs. I’m capable of basic maintenance and problem solving.

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I've cared for all types of dogs from dachshunds to pitbulls; toy poodles to great danes. No dog is too excitable or too strong to handle. I am an active person and will make sure your dog gets lots of exercise. My husband and I like to make sure all pups end the day happy and tired. With a large yard on a quiet street, you pet will feel right at home here. I work from home every day aside from Tuesdays and Wednesdays, with a lenient job that I can walk away from when needed. I can take the dog out at any time of day, and have a long lunch break for walks, and plenty of time in the evening for play. I've sat many pets in their own home, and have been able to learn how they behave in their own environment and adapt accordingly. Respecting people's spaces is a top priority, and I always make sure to leave a home exactly as I found it. I have a large home with plenty of outdoor space at the end of a quiet cul da sac. The back yard is secluded and very safe. We do not keep food out, and we make sure no plants that can harm animals ever enter the home. The neighborhood is quiet and safe with very few cars. Most all other dogs in the area have interacted with dogs we have babysat, and are very friendly and well trained.

About: I believe in treating animals humanely and as we would want to be treated. Dogs get the same affect from exercising outdoors as humans do, maybe even more. So why not give them what is good for them? I know you love your pets as a family member and would do anything to keep them healthy and happy however, I understand life just gets in the way sometimes. Allow me to be there to take care of them and give them the attention they deserve. Whether it’s taking your pup on a wellness walk in the outdoors, playing laser tag with Mr. Meowgi, or keeping your house pets company by staying the night, no request is too big or small to keep your floofs happy. I am just as flexible with taking care of any animal (take a peek at some of my pics) as I am with what I charge. Please do not hesitate to reach out. And always remember, A happy pooch is a happy parent! I am patient, understanding and love all animals. I work full time as a waitress in the evenings and attend online college during the day. I have availability most days and can be flexible (: I have grown up with pets my whole life. I currently live with 2 dogs and a parakeet. I have cared for pets with anxiety, senior animals, farm animals and baby animals.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Springfield

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Walking in Springfield is $20 per walk as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $31 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 1,841 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:

  • 90% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
