House Sitting in Springfield

“I was super nervous having someone new stay with Zorro, because it’s been a long time. Due to a new nephew who wanted to make an early entrance to the world, I had to find someone on short notice. Linda has been amazing! We were able to do a meet and greet right away. She has been so patient and flexible, even adding an extra day so I could stay to help family. She took great care of Zorro and kept me updated. I am very grateful and would definitely recommend her to take care of your fur babies!”

“Sue is amazing!!! She did a great job looking after our 3 senior dogs. The dogs needed medicines and special wet food, and also needed help getting up and down the stairs, but Sue managed to take great care of them. She had great communication and sent many pictures and videos to keep us updated. She exceeded our expectations! We wouldn't hesitate to have Sue watch our dogs again in the future!”

“We were away on a 2.5 week vacation overseas, the longest we’ve been away from our cats. They are pretty low maintenance and are good as long as they have food and water, but we were worried about our long absence since they’re pretty cuddly and clingy. I did some research on pet sitting and found Charity through Rover and was immediately impressed with her stellar reviews and repeat clients! I reached out and explained our situation and she was so kind and receptive. We booked our sitting appointment for the full 2.5 weeks, and booked a meet and greet about a month before to walk through the apartment, meet our cats, and chat. Charity is so warm and easy to talk to, it’s as if we’d been friends a long time. During our vacay, she gave us daily updates with pictures despite the time zone difference, and made us feel at ease. It made enjoying our vacay that much easier knowing she was here every day taking care of our fur babies. Charity is a natural with animals, isn’t afraid to ask questions, and we will definitely work with her again for our next vacation! Thank you so much, Rover and Charity!”

“Craig was great, my animals liked him the second they met him. Very good with cats, my sphynx likes to ride around on his shoulder. Will definitely use Craig in the future!”

“Our two German Shepards have the absolute best time with Jackson and he takes incredible care of them. Your dogs are in the best hands when Jackson is watching them and he sends picture updates throughout our trips. He stays at our house and takes great care of the house and grabbing the mail when we are gone. We are lucky to have found him!”

“Vanessa did an amazing job with Lilo and Stitch. I could tell by the photos she sent they were very comfortable and happy to be around her. I will definitely book with her again!!!”

Dena S.

“Kristi did an amazing job watching my three dogs! She was able to win over our nervous Nobu and they became best friends. She communicated throughout the day to provide pup-dates and shared pictures with progress. Will book for future!”

About: My life has always revolved around pets; they're not just animals, they're family. While I have a background in animal care, my greatest experience comes from a lifetime of caring for my own dogs and cats—most recently a beloved senior cat. This personal experience has made me especially compassionate and patient with pets of all ages and needs. In addition to providing lots of love and attention, I also have special skills that set me apart: * I'm currently a canine companion volunteer at the Nebraska Humane Society, giving me hands-on experience with a variety of dogs and temperaments. * I'm experienced in giving medications to both dogs and cats. * I've completed positive-reinforcement puppy classes and can calm high-anxiety pets. * I'm comfortable with basic bathing and nail trims. I'm ready to bring all of this experience to caring for your pet, giving them the same love and attention as I would my own. As someone who works from home, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to provide constant companionship and care. A pet in my care will never be left alone for long periods. I can easily accommodate multiple potty breaks, plenty of playtime, and lots of cuddles throughout the day. * Note: I will be getting my pet first aid and CPR certification on Sept. 7th! When caring for pets in your home, my top priority is maintaining their normal routine and comfort. I am a highly respectful houseguest and will follow all of your instructions regarding feeding schedules, potty breaks, and playtime. By keeping your pet in their familiar environment, I help reduce stress and ensure they feel safe and secure while you're away.

“We were able to book Dawn at the last minute, after reading about her and reviews. They were spot on and we were happy she was able to sit with our two babies. She was very nice, easy to talk with, we felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. We will definitely be calling on her again. Dawn thank you, for a day to ourselves without worrying about our kids.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and I currently live with two small dogs that I’ve been taking care of for the last 8 years. I have a lot of experience with both extremely small dogs like Miniature Yorkies as well as large dogs like German Shepards. I think I’m also very good puppies and I would be happy to answer any questions you might have about me. I’m currently a college student with a very flexible schedule so I can take care of your pets at almost all hours of any day. If you need me to check on your pets at 2AM that’s fine with me.😊 I am happy to accommodate for your pets and keep their schedules as normal as possible while you are away. I can take them for their daily walk or continue feeding them at their normal times.

“Celeste watched my Dane while I was away for about two weeks over Christmas break. She did a wonderful job with my Dane. Followed his schedule as well. If she had questions she asked and even sent updates. She left my home just as it was before I left. I had no concerns and will use her again.”

“Hailey has been a repeat sitter for our anxious boy, Hoagie. She handles instructions for him with grace and is always on time, excellent at communicating throughout the day, and making sure his needs are met! Hoagie always gets excited when Hailey comes to hangout with him and we would love to book her again! Thank you so much for caring for our boy, Hailey and for setting such a great example of what a great sitter looks like!”
