About: With years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and energy levels, I provide thoughtful, personalized care that goes beyond just feeding and walking. From spirited puppies to mellow senior cats, I’ve supported animals through every life stage—with plenty of love, patience, and play along the way. I’m confident handling multiple pets, giving medications (including oral and topical), and creating calm environments for anxious animals. I’ve worked with high-energy dogs who need structured adventure walks, and I’ve soothed shy rescue cats who just need quiet companionship and gentle care. My own life is full of furry friends, and I truly treat every pet like family. Whether your companion needs a hiking buddy, a cozy lap to nap on, or a sitter who takes litter box duties seriously—I’ve got you covered. As a homeschool mom who works from home, caring for pets fits seamlessly into my daily rhythm. Our days are structured but flexible, which means your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and consistent care throughout the day. Whether it’s taking a dog on a midday adventure walk or giving a cat some quiet companionship while I work, your pet becomes part of our loving, pet-friendly home environment. My kids are gentle and respectful animal lovers, so there’s always someone nearby ready to offer an extra cuddle or throw a toy. Because I'm home most of the time, I’m able to give pets a calm, consistent presence—perfect for those who get anxious when their humans are away. Pet care isn’t a side gig—it’s part of our family’s lifestyle. I provide loving and attentive care in your pet’s own environment, helping them feel safe and comfortable while you're away. Whether it’s regular walks, playtime, or giving medications, I follow your pet’s routine to ensure consistency and minimize stress. I’m also happy to clean up after them, including litter boxes or any messes, to keep their space tidy and calm. During my visits, I focus on creating a nurturing, stress-free atmosphere for your pet. I’ll send you updates and pictures, so you can rest easy knowing your pet is in great hands. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or extra cuddles, I’m dedicated to providing the best care, right in the comfort of your home.
“Megan was super-enthusiastic, clear, and interested in having the best possible interactions and relationship with Boo. At every step, I was reassured by her approach and the way things went. In my experience, you are in good hands when you entrust your pet to Megan, and in my case that adds up to peace of mind when it just wasn’t possible to be there myself.”

About: Grew up with a dog ever since I was one, a sweet golden retriever and loved her all her life, help dog/cat sit and dog walk with my sister between her and my new rescue, also grew up with my grandmothers cat, a cat of my own and now a family cat My fully online school schedule gives me a lot of flexibility, allowing me to be available for daytime care, drop-ins, and walks. It also makes overnight stays easy to accommodate when needed! With a large, open backyard, your pet will have plenty of space to run, play, and burn off energy. I provide toys such as balls and use a secure lead setup for safe outdoor fun, plus we have a long, quiet, hilly road that’s perfect for walks. Inside, your pet will find a cozy, welcoming environment with plenty of spots to relax—especially in our spacious, carpeted living room.
“Althea can always be counted on to communicate clearly and follow through in ways you can be confident are in the best interest of your pet, and consistent with the plans you’ve agreed on. A pleasure to work with.”

About: I have been caring for pets for 15 years and I absolutely adore all animals. I will make sure your pet is comfortable, happy, and given lots of attention. I always pamper and spoil all animals. I pay close attention to specific diets, restrictions, etc to make your pup/cat and you as happy as can be. I have numerous references and would be glad to give them to you. I am 29 years old and I recently moved to Lebanon NH from Kansas City. Caring for animals is what makes me happy and I would love to care for your beloved pet. If you have any questions feel free to reach out. In the meantime, I hope you will think of me when you need any service for your pet. I have all the time to spend with your pet, and look forward to doing so! My side gig I do aside from caring for pets is that I make dog treats and cakes! I often take dogs out for walks and scoop the litter daily. I make sure food and water is full and address any sort of restriction and exact times to feed and let out pets.
About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs as long as I can remember. And my experience goes out further than just cats and dogs. I’ve helped my parents take care of the animals on their little homestead for 3.5-4 years. I took care of ducks, chickens, pigs, goats, and more. I’m currently not working and I’m free Tuesday-Saturday. I’m available in the mornings/mid afternoon. I can do night hours only on Thursdays, fridays, and Saturdays. The people that i currently live with have a huge yard and 2 friendly dogs, one that has a runner hooked up outside and the other one gets to free roam. When I am in the clients home, I will make sure their fur baby is well taken care off and has everything they need. And potentially clean up when I leave.

About: I have pets my whole entire life from small animals to large. I also was in Vet Tech for a year & pet sit for a bunch of family members:) I currently work full-time at West Lebanon fit body Boot Camp. During the week I don’t go to work until 9/9:30, I also can take a lunch when needed! I leave work around 6pm. I can be flexible as needed, and sometimes can have schedule shifts. I prioritize safety, routine, and comfort in a calm, clean environment. I follow all care instructions closely, provide regular updates, and respect to your home. My goal is to create a low stress experience where your pet feel safe, comfortable and cared for at their own pace.

About: I have worked in veterinary medicine for over 6 years and have been a pet owner most of my life. I have had a hospice dog and have a soft spot for senior animals. I currently have a Siberian husky, a husky/shepard mix and 2 cats! I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to be available as needed. Animals are a significant part of my life and I look forward to helping you and your family. I am available for dog walks, drop ins, or pet sitting. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats as part of our family. They are definitely spoiled but also well trained. I take pet care very seriously, every animal deserves respectful and loving care. My dogs require a lot of activity due to their breeds which has given me a lot of experience with high energy, high needs dogs.
About: My name is Ben and I live with my wife, Laura, in Canaan. I work from home and we are both available as needed throughout the day to provide close supervision, companionship and outdoor time for your pet. We grew up with a lot of pets, and have always loved being around dogs especially. We have had several Saint Bernards in the past and are comfortable with large dogs. Whatever the shape or size, we look forward to getting to know your pet and giving them the best care we can provide. We are happy to host and are flexible to travel, both weekdays and weekends. Looking forward to hearing from you! Availability 7 days/week with flexible work hours. Can travel to your home and stay overnight if needed as well as take out for walks during the day. Our house is spacious and comfortable with a large yard and surrounding areas to take for walks. Will follow instructions carefully to best accommodate different needs.
About: We (myself, my nine-year old daughter, and our beagle) love to be active; truck rides to shady spots of water on hot days, to snowshoeing fun on trails in the winter (short walks around the neighborhood and “brain puzzles” take the cake for rainy days). We have learned new tricks and training skills through classes with a certified trainer. I am by no means a decorated professional, but I am educated and experienced with dogs. No more than one family of dogs at a time for services (up to 2 dogs). I prefer to keep our daily group small, and more one-on-one. Whether I’m there to hang out with your pup, or to take them out and about for the day, potty breaks are a must. If the weather is nice, we may spend our entire time outside! Please let me know if my beagle is okay to come with, or if your dog would do best without a four-legged friend.
“Samantha was wonderful with Edith and gave us great updates about their walks together. She was thorough and considerate and we will definitely rebook with her when we’re back in the area. Thank you very much, Samantha!”


About: Each pet has their own personality and style and I adapt to exactly what your pets need and want. If they want cuddles, they get cuddles. If they want space, they get space. It's all about the precious pets needs for me. I provide 5 star service and have a flexible schedule to meet your and your four legged friends needs! I don’t have a furry friend of my own but I love the opportunity to give a little love to all the pets I meet. Any dog big or small is awesome in my book.

I currently work a 9 to 5 remote job and have plenty of flexibility to meet you and your pets needs. I can house sit or do drop ins as needed with my schedule. I am the happiest when I am around dogs and enjoy playing with them! I have been the go to dog sitter for my friends and family for over 8 years.

About: I have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. It started with my family dog, then taking care of all of my friends dogs and now having my own puppy. I have worked in multiple animal hospitals and have experience with many different breeds and sizes of dogs. I am currently going to school as a full-time student and have extra time where I’d love to care for animals if I can. With not many classes and an open schedule it should be very easy to fit daily walks in. At home I have a dog and constantly take him for walks and different places in order for him to get out of the house.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of July 2026, there are 308 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 your Springfield. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Springfield.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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:
- 96% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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 dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
