Ashley was great and I so appreciate her! I asked very last minute for her to watch my dogs and then even added on more time while I was away and she was happy to help me with whatever! She completely saved my bum so I could visit family and the dogs loved her!!

About: I I have experience pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors, caring for dogs and cats of different breeds and temperaments. My responsibilities have included daily walks, feeding, cleaning litter boxes, giving medications, and providing companionship. I understand how important routine and reassurance are when owners are away. I currently work from home. So my schedule is pretty flexible! Plenty of times to go on walks and playtime! With advanced notice I am very accommodating to meet your needs. I provide loving, reliable care whether pets stay in my home or I care for them in theirs. My top priorities are safety, trust, and maintaining a calm, comfortable environment. I always follow each pet’s routine closely — including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions — to help them feel secure and stress-free.

About: I’ve always had at least one animal since i was a child, I’ve worked as a kennel tech and I’ve been to vet school! I have a couple cats and a dog, they are my WORLD!! My dog had a bad life before I adopted him, and I completely trained him myself with very little help. He is a perfect, well behaved angel now! My schedule is pretty open! I am a stay at home wife and I’m in school, so I have plenty of time on my hands to care for your pets! I am thoroughly knowledgeable on all things dog safety related, my pooch has had a rough go at it so I’ve take courses on animal CPR, de-escalation training, and I am familiar with taking care of animals with health issues. Every pet is different and they all need varying levels of care and comfort requirements.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and grew up with two golden retrievers, so caring for pets has always come naturally to me. I’ve also dog sat for friends and family, helping with walking, feeding, playtime, and making sure their pets feel safe and loved while they’re away. I’m very patient, attentive, and understand that every dog has their own personality and needs. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or more calm and cuddly, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. I am currently part-time employed but if you let me know in advance I’m available anytime weekday or weekends! Dog sitting is something I look forward to - not as a chore, so I am fully able to spend long hours if needed! I always prioritize safety and follow each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions carefully. I make sure pets are secure on walks, supervised during play, and always in a safe environment. I often prefer caring for pets in their own home because it keeps them comfortable in a familiar space and helps reduce stress. I’m very respectful of clients’ homes, keep things clean, and provide regular updates so owners feel confident while they’re away.

About: I have experience in training and animals handling. I have been called an animal whisperer. I am open to all pets even aggressive ones. I have experience in exotic pets as well. I am in college and I take care of animals in between my classes. This will not take away from my time spent with your animals and I will be fully focused on your pet while I am there. I have a large amount of experience with animal behavior. I can confidently and comfortably care for all types of animals regardless of temperament or aggression level. Your pet will always be safe with me.

About: I have loved animals since I came out of the womb. I have 2 cats myself and I absolutely love dogs. I have taken care of animals since I was 10. I also have volunteered at the humane society. I would absolutely love to meet your fur babies and the owners of course. I do online school, so I am very flexible when it comes to watching over your pets. I can wake up early and stay late. Whatever you need. I would love to keep your fur baby company, take them on walks (short or long), play with them, and obviously learn all about their little quirks.

About: I have grown up only knowing a life with a dog. I love caring for and playing with any type of dog! Along with taking care of my own dogs, I have been dog sitting for neighbors and friends for many years now. I work part time so on the days I work I would be gone for about 9 hours. My schedule varies but can be flexible just let me know! I love caring for dogs by keeping them company in the comfort of their own home. Whether it’s relaxing together, playing, or going for walks, I make sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. If your dog stays at my home for boarding, I’ll help them settle in and feel comfortable in a safe, welcoming environment. We’ll have plenty of playtime, go on walks, and, if appropriate, visit a local dog park so they can get lots of exercise and fun.

About: In the past couple years been taking care of dogs & cats for friends and coworker when they go out of vacation or a camping trip, they have relied on me to feed, comfort their dogs & cats and make sure they are taken care of in any special way needed, I have been to many puppy classes with my own pup and I have taken care of many dogs & cats of many ages. I recently just moved to the Omaha area, I work typically 8-5 on the weekdays but am available to come before or after work to take care of the animals. I am available weekends for drop in. While not working I enjoy hiking and being outside! Being able to care for a clients pet is so important I would offer to meet the pets before hand and sit with them for a bit understand how they work in there own home so I can get a sense of how they are with a stranger in the house and how I am not a threat. I will be able to sit with them for company and play with them as well whether that is walks or just running in the house.

About: My Fiancé and I have 3 dogs of our own. We have a 13 year old Terrior Mix, a 8 year old Yorkie and a 1 year old Lhasa Apso. We also have an 9 year old child here part time. I work from home so I am available at all times for boarding and can make almost anything work for drop in visits and walking. We have had our dogs for many years so we are well versed in caring for dogs of all wants and needs. We believe time spent with dogs is the most important.

About: I was raised around cats and dogs my entire childhood, and as an adult I now own 2 rabbits. My rabbits will always be closed away in a separate room with a locked door while boarding pets in my home. Although I don't currently own any cats or dogs, I have extensive experience with them and treat all animals as if they were my own. I accept exotic animals as well, just book them as cats and send me a message! I own a house in the Chalco area with a fenced in backyard and have boarded dogs many times here. I have an XL dog crate, leashes, and food and water bowls on hand. I currently work Mon-Fri 8-5pm. I am available weekdays after 5pm and anytime on weekends. I can do drop in visits on my 1pm lunch break or any time after 5pm. I treat your pets as I would treat my own. I am able to pick up dog waste, scoop cat litter, and provide medications as well as food and water.

About: I've grown up with always more than one animal in the household, and loving them is second nature. When my family and friends need someone to help take care of the pets, I am always the first option! I have taken care if lots of cats and dogs, but a few fish throughout the years too. I have experience not only with general pet care such as, feeding, walking, playing/enrichment, but also with giving medications. Some dog breeds I have worked with (or lived with) are German Shepards, Yellow Labs, and mutts that are a mix of medium/bigger dogs or small dachshund mixes. And a lot of different cat personalities! The distant and quiet ones who keep to themselves and the ones who need your attention the second you walk through your door! Either way, I have always loved them no matter what, and continue to love them still. I am not currently working so my days are opened for anything, anytime! I may be finding a part time job soon, if I do not have lots of pets to watch, but something that still keeps my schedule open and flexible. I am always willing to wake up early or stay up late because I have the free time and flexibility! In my home, my cat never has a missed meal, he has clean and running water 24/7, and a handful of toys available for enrichment! A handheld laser always nearby for sudden play time is anecessity! As for my client's pets, I will always follow instructions step by step and detail by detail, no matter if feeding times includes something silly to get the fur baby to actually eat their food, I will always do it! And I am not the kind of person to just stop in, do what I need to do, and leave. I will make sure the pet is well loved and knows that I am there for them.

About: I have always been a dog mom, since the start of adulthood. I was raised with cats and dogs in the home. Professionally, I am a child mental health therapist, and as part of my prior training in Psychology, I completed a field experience at the Nebraska Humane Society using behavior modification to train dogs. I have spent many years housesitting, dog sitting and cat sitting during my professional schooling. As my stepchildren are almost all grown and out of the home, I have found myself with some extra time and would love to help your family with care for your fur babies. I have experience with senior pets as well as giving medications. No reptile experience. I currently have a very flexible schedule and I’m able to make my own schedule at work. This will allow me the flexibility to care for your pets at various times throughout the day and evenings. I have a fence yard and two pets of my own at home. However, as I have a friend that rents a room in my home, I am able to housesit overnight and take care of pets in their own home so they don’t have to be displaced. I am also open to whatever schedule works for each family, for drop in care or walks.

About: I love animals and now that I live in an apartment, I miss having a pet! There are plenty of dogs roaming around the building, and I say hi to every one of them. I would love to hang out with your cat or dog! I’m a 39 year old mom and preschool teacher, so caring for littles comes natural to me. I have plenty of experience both in pet sitting and in life! If this tells you anything, when I’m at a party, you can find me with the pets. Pick me to check on your fur babies! I am a stay at home parent with an in-home preschool. The preschool is open Tuesday-Friday mornings, and my kid has childcare Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, so those afternoons are free for me. Pets tend to love me and I’m patient with those animals that are shy. I am very excited to hang out with some cats and dogs in my free time!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Springfield on Rover is $10.9 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 1,070 sitters on Rover offering Dog 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.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Springfield choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Springfield with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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.

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.
