Pet Sitting Springfield

“This booking was just for a two day drop in for my cats and I couldn’t be happier. Crystal was very communicative and flexible with her schedule. On top of all that, very kind, and I know my cats loved her. It was very good work, I’d trust her to watch my cats longer if needed. Would definitely recommend Crystal and hope I can book her again!”

“Vanessa was great! Timely, good communication, and our pup loved her!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for most of my adult life. As a kid I was never able to have pets, so as an adult I’ve always had multiple dogs. I love dogs and enjoy their personalities and fun loving nature. Weekends and holidays are spent at home with the family, and the four-legged family members get plenty of playtime! During the week, I work full-time. Our dogs are kennel-trained and enjoy their downtime during the day. Once home, they’re out and a part of all our evening activities. We have a fenced-in yard where they can run and play non-stop. Our fenced-in yard is an excellent space for our four energetic dogs to run and play. They love to play non-stop, and our kids, who are also dog lovers, enjoy playing along with them.

About: Lifelong animal lover offering reliable dog walking and drop-in visits for dogs and cats. I’ve cared for pets my entire life and previously boarded dogs through Rover, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. In 2017 I was an active Rover sitter and boarded dogs in my home for about a year, working with several families and building repeat clients. During that time I had multiple dogs and cats of my own, as well as young children, so I’m very comfortable managing busy households and different pet personalities. Today I have one dog and one cat of my own and am excited to return to Rover focusing on dog walking and drop-in visits for both dogs and cats. I’m happy to help with: • Dog walking (short or long walks) • Drop-in visits for dogs or cats • Feeding, fresh water, and routine care • Litter box cleaning for cats • Playtime, attention, and companionship • Basic medications when pets are comfortable receiving them I’ve also worked in boarding facilities, grooming salons, and doggy daycares, which gave me experience handling many different types of dogs and temperaments. I’m known for being calm, patient, and routine-focused, and I treat every pet with the same care and attention I give my own. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a wide-open schedule and can be flexible to meet your pet’s needs, whether it’s daily walks or regular drop-in visits. I primarily drive to visits, so I can reach most locations efficiently. To ensure the best care for your pets, I ask for at least a day’s notice when scheduling or canceling visits. Since this is my main source of income, I can be consistent and dependable, giving your pets the attention and routine they deserve. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. Dogs are always leashed during walks, and I adjust routes or pause if other dogs are nearby to ensure a calm, controlled experience. I’m comfortable caring for multiple pets at once, as long as they get along well. I handle pets with anxiety, aggression, or medical needs carefully, following all instructions from their parents. During drop-in visits, I take my lead from pet parents and follow any guidance provided, ensuring I leave the home exactly as I found it — doors locked, secure, and everything in order. My goal is to provide a safe, consistent, and worry-free experience for both pets and their families.

“Did a good job taking care of the pets. A couple of hiccups but stayed in communication well. Snow storm hit at the end of the week and offered extra help just in case. Much appreciated!”

“Danette took great care of my cat while I was out of town for a few days over 4th of July weekend! He was well fed and well loved, and I could tell he was very content despite my being away. I would definitely recommend her, and will look to her again if I need care for him in the future.”

“Was very prompt with her communication and attentive to our pets needs. Gave updates for each stay with pictures and went above and beyond with her service.”

About: I am currently a pre-veterinarian student at UNL And have had the privilege to work with many animals through these years. Currently, I volunteer at the Lincoln Cat house working with incoming cats and assessing sicknesses. I also work for A-4 Animal Hospital and work with any animals from cats to dogs to hedgehogs! From these organizations I have learned a lot about animal husbandry and how to handle many types of pets. I also have worked with children since I was 16 years old and have learned a lot about time management from this that works a lot with dealing with animals. All these jobs have allowed me to grow with caring for others and other people’s pets and can’t wait to care for your pet next.

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!

“He did amazing with our pups. We have 4 of them and was worried about having someone watch them as this was our first rover experience. We were so happy with the results. We have cameras in our home so we could see everything and he was so good with our dogs. One of them even got sick and he cleaned it up with out hesitation. Thank you!”

“Bob consistently goes above & beyond for our dog. We are so grateful for him!”

About: I was raised on a farm and have cared for all sorts of animals my entire life. I now have a mature rough coat collie, Rhea. She is a very good companion for people and other pets. I worked as a Vet assistant, which included large animal surgeries. I ran the anesthesia. I rode on a Rescue Squad for 7 yrs and was a paramedic in the Military. I am very active and love spending time with pets. I am retired, very active, but I have plenty of time, energy, and love to give to your animal. I am available most any day/night. I have a large fenced-in yard. I have one very friendly fur baby to keep yours company. I have availability to crate your pets also if that is what your pet is comfortable with.

“Alex was such a blessing to have as our check in sitter for our fur family members ! This was my first time taking an extended weekend trip out of state and not bringing Sammy with us . Alex did an amazing job of communicating and keeping me updated on each drop in so I was able to feel worry free knowing Sammy and Fergus where in good hands !”

“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!!”

“Will 100% use Rachel to watch my pets again!”

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.
