Harper didn't warm up to her, but that's because of him not Ashton. He's only ever warned up to one other person. She was very respectful of his space and comfort level and sent pics from every visit. Highly recommend and will definitely use her services again.

About: I care with love, patience, and presence. I’m experienced with both playful pups and senior pets, and I treat every animal like family. Reliable, calm, and faith-rooted.

I have a flexible schedule and love spending my free time caring for animals with presence, love, and joy. 🐾 I care for pets in my clients’ homes by following their routines closely, giving lots of love and attention, and keeping their space clean and secure. I respect your home like it’s my own and send regular updates so you feel at ease while you’re away. 🐾

About: I had taken care of dogs of every kind since I was very young. I have relied on me to walked, feed and bathe their pets. I had also trained 2 dogs with some of the sign language as well to teach the animals to sit and stay with the American sign language. My friends and family have relied on me to take their dogs to the dog park, the beach and go on the morning hike. Just really take care of their animals with the love, respect and support for those need my help for them to enjoy their time or a getaway! I'm currently working from home on my own flexible schedule! I do have a lot of time in between working virtually and I can do my job anywhere! So if I take the dogs to the park or go on a walk, I could work on my phone to reply my emails, messages etc. I do have the good balance of taking a break from work to spend the time with the animals to give them my attention and cuddles and go on a walks or adventures! First thing first is to care the animals with respect, love and comfort to be in your home. If I was at your house, I am that person that will follow your wishes and expectations of how you would want me to care for your animals. I do clean up after myself when I am at your house and to keep it tidy clean as you like it to be. I also like to step outside with the dogs/cats to keep my eyes on them or even just being outside with them and play with their toys to give them my joyful attention. I love to have the transparency communication with the owners as well. I will always ask the owner before assuming or trying things out. I love to meet the animals before starting the whole process to feel it out how the energy goes for us and for your animals too. If it flows great with you, I and your animals then there will be lots of pictures will be shared to you as well!

Katie did drop in visits for for my kitty, Barts, and I couldn’t be happier! She stopped in twice a day (and just once on one day too) for feedings, litter checks and playtime and pets. Barts is usually not too sure about new people, but he took to Katie quickly; he even allowed her to apply medication to his lip. She sent pictures of Barts on each visit along with how he was eating and doing overall. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Katie again in the future. Thank you!! ☺️

About: I've grown up with all kinds of animals, from hamsters to horses and especially have never lived anywhere without dogs or cats. I have years of farm and pet sitting experience and am comfortable with all animals. I'm a super active person and I love being outside with pets, playing with them or going for walks. I have a very flexible schedule allowing me to spend as much time with them as possible. I'm currently working from home and have complete flexibility on time, so I can spend as much time as possible with animals during a sit. I'm very active and I walk, run, and/or hike every day, so I love being able to take dogs along with me on adventures, but I can also dedicate time to hanging out in a home. With such a flexible schedule, I can work with the needs of every different pet. I have a flexible routine and can adapt to different needs. I enjoy being on the go and will happily take pets out on adventures with me, but I can also appreciate staying in and having a relaxing day with a pet!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet caregiver, and my home, The Cozy Critter Cottage, is a cozy, whimsical place where pets can relax and feel at home while their owners are away. Many people say our home feels like stepping into a magical storybook, with cozy spaces and lots of warmth. It’s the perfect environment for animals who enjoy comfort, attention, and a calm home atmosphere. I have several years of experience caring for and training animals, and I’m comfortable working with pets with a wide variety of personalities, temperaments, and needs. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers quiet cuddles and naps, I adapt to their routine so they feel safe and happy. My own animal family includes three friendly ragdoll kitties, a sweet Pomeranian, fish, and chickens. All of my pets are well-socialized and used to being around other animals, which helps visiting pets settle in comfortably. I’m also able to accommodate animals who may need extra space or a quieter environment. My home is large enough that pets can be comfortably separated if needed, which can be helpful for animals who prefer their own space, are adjusting to new environments, or require special care. When pets stay here they are treated like family. They’ll have plenty of attention, cozy spots to relax, playtime, and lots of love. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, medications, training cues, and any specific instructions you provide. I offer most services available on Rover, including boarding, daycare, and drop-in visits. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I always send photo updates so you can see how your pet is doing during their stay. My goal is simple: a safe, happy, magical little vacation for your pet while you’re away. 🐾✨ Pet care is a natural part of our daily life, and our routine is built around making sure our animal kiddos get consistent attention, structure, and love throughout the day. My wife and I coordinate our schedules so that someone is almost always home. I work full time Tuesday through Thursday, and during that time my wife is home caring for the animals and keeping their routines consistent. The rest of the week, we’re typically both home, which allows us to provide even more supervision, playtime, and one-on-one attention. We start the day with morning walks and feeding, followed by free-roam time in the home so pets can relax and settle in comfortably. Throughout the day, we provide enrichment, attention, and outdoor time in our fenced yard—something our Pomeranian especially enjoys, and visiting pets are welcome to enjoy as well. In the evenings, we do another walk along with wind-down time so pets feel calm and at ease. Because of this setup, pets staying with us are rarely left alone and get a great balance of activity, routine, and cozy relaxation in a safe, structured environment. Creating a safe, calm, and loving environment is my top priority. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family and are always supervised, comfortable, and well cared for. Our pets are our kids! :) Pets are welcome to free roam in a cozy, structured environment, with consistent routines that include feeding, potty breaks, walks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. For pets who may need extra space, time to adjust, or a lower-stimulation environment, we are able to comfortably separate animals within the home. We also have a dedicated area for crates, making it easy to accommodate crate-trained pets or owner preferences.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Springfield on Rover is $14.45 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 578 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Springfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Springfield stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Springfield. On Rover:

  • 98% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
