Top rated Springfield pet sitters

“Kelli is an amazing dog sitter & walker. She gave us great, detailed updates and sends wonderful photos. She even brushed our dog while we were gone and gave him plenty of good scratch sessions which he loves. It was nice to know our dog was in such good hands while we were away. She was also incredibly flexible about altering the request when our flight out was delayed and when we returned a day early. Can’t say enough good things about her. She is an excellent choice for watching your pet while you are away.”


“Hannah has a way with cats and dogs. They were so happy to meet her and I knew I didn't need to worry while I was gone. One of my cats is an older recluse and I was pleased to see in photos that he was relaxed and happy with Hannah. It's a gift to find an "animal" person, and Hannah is one!”


“Vanessa was very attentive and patient with our nervous Obi, which was so appreciated! She was punctual, handled all complex feeding directions well and provided pictures of an anxious but happy boy. That's the best we can ask for and will book again!”


“We absolutely love “Miss Patricia”!! Her reliable and caring service has made leaving our pup stress-free, and she was even thoughtful enough to buy our sweet Allie a thoughtful birthday gift. Coming home after a long day to a happy dog is always a relief. So very grateful to have her as our go-to dog sitter!”


“Deidre was fantastic. We were very anxious leaving our older chihuahua and standard poodle alone all day since they’ve become accustomed to being no more than 5 feet away from us since working from home the last 6 years. As soon as we met Deidre for the meet and greet we were put at ease. She’s has a calm, grounded presence that not only the dogs but even our scaredy cats responded too. She came by for three visits and sent full updates and many photos. We cannot recommend her highly enough.”


“Jeffrey was fantastic and allowed us to be worry free while traveling overseas. He even helped take care of our cat who unfortunately has cancer and was able to administer oral meds. I went ahead and already booked him again for our next trip. Highly recommend!”



“Ari did a great job with my two goldens. He is very responsible in communicating with me. The dogs took to him immediately! I will definitely ask him to help out again!”



“Kristina is the absolute best! She has been a long time recurring dog watcher for me for probably close to 6 months. She was always diligent about her schedule, and communicated well on when she could help out. My dogs absolutely loved her and she always sent pictures of them playing the backyard without fail. We're going to really miss this gal up in Puyallup, if I could convince her to drive up there 3-4 days a week I'd try haha.. seriously if you need a quality sitter, look no further. :) Thank you Kristina, you're the best.”


“Wonderful experience!! I will definitely use Ashley again and recommend her to anyone. She kept me updated and responded to messages very quickly. My cats were well taken care of. They are pretty social with me and not used to me being gone. So far they are not showing any separation issues and even the shy anxious one is doing great! Ashley stopped in to hang out twice a day and that extra people interaction each day from my past one a day visits has had a big impact. Sad as it is to say it’s almost like they didn’t miss me as much this time :) Thank you!!!”


“Lizzy was great with our dogs and kept us updated the whole trip with photos and messages letting us know how they were doing! I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking with her in the future”


“We loved Helena, she treated our old dog with such great care. We will definitely be booking with her again and so appreciate her taking care of our dog.”


“Melanie did a great job taking care of my very unfriendly cat Daisy! She sent lots of pictures & updates, which I enjoyed getting. Melanie brought my mail in & took my garbage out to the curb for pick up too. She went above & beyond! I am so happy to have found her to take care of Daisy when I am gone!”


About: I luckily was able to grow up on a farm where I was around horses, sheep, dogs and cats all throughout my childhood and young adulthood. I feel comfortable being able to sense what an animal needs and how to make them feel more as ease. I am a very active person and if you have an active dog, can get them out on adventure hikes. I work part-time and from home a lot of days. I am mostly home on the weekends and can be available with advance notice for any day or holiday. I have an apartment where dogs or cats can roam and are allowed on the bed. As I am home for much of the day they can be comforted that I am there and let out on frequent potty breaks.

About: * summer is here and I still have a few openings left so book asap! Also... I know it seems too early and sunny to think about the holidays, but I usually book up months in advance so reach out, even if you don't have exact travel plans, but know you'll need pet care. I currently have Labor Day already booked, but mid November - New Years is pretty much open, except one booking in Dec. Check my updated calendar. My dog care experience spans all ages and breeds. I know puppies are more work, but I enjoy working with them on leash and obedience training to maintain good habits while their people are away. I have experience with giving daily medications and have cared for senior dogs, one who needed daily blood sugar testing and insulin shots. I live mobile between pet sitting gigs staying with friends and family from Marysville to Olympia. I started pet sitting for clients when I was house cleaning during the time I was in grad school. Because I was already working in their homes and had biweekly interactions with their pets, it was an easy transition to pet care. It was also during this time that a couple of professors inquired about pet sitting. I was a backup for one of thier regular sitters and the other, I'm still their regular sitter 7+ years later. I care for your pets the same way you would. They like to sleep in the bed with me? Cool. They need extra outside play time or walks to keep their anxiety low because you're gone? Done. I am very intuitive to reading their energy and do everything I can to meet their needs. Do you have some anxiety about being away and want pictures daily? Got it covered. My experience with house cleaning also menas I take care of the spaces I am staying so I am happy to water house plants and take care of gardens if needed.

“Nora did an excellent job. Our cats were fed and watered regularly and we received updates with each visit. A particular quirk when you adopt the stray cats who invade your backyard is that your cats demand frequent time outside. Nora was cool with this and accommodated their outdoorsy needs with her visits, plus she was very easy to schedule with.”


“Zash did a meet and greet with us and was very organized and professional. Our cat Zeus was well cared for while we were gone. We will for sure reach out to Zash again in the future.”

Rory R.
“Rory is a truly a wonderful, responsible pet caregiver. I've been on a walk with Rory to socialize a dog and what sets her apart from other caregivers is her attention and compassion for animals. During our walk we had an unfortunate encounter with a ground hornets nest. I watcher Rory, first hand, pull hornets out the dog's coat before I could even register what was happening. She is always on the lookout for pet safety. Rory is also very communicative and engaged. Expect wonderful pet pictures from her outings! If you’re looking for someone responsible, kind, and genuinely caring, I highly recommend Rory. Your dog will thank you!”


Alison S.
“I trust Alison implicitly with my 2 cats and my home. Knowing that she is here gives me immense peace of mind when I am away. Her patience and kindness have been invaluable in administering twice daily insulin injections to a very feisty cat. I wholeheartedly recommend Alison to anyone in need of a reliable, caring, and trustworthy individual to take care of their pets. Her dedication and kindness are unmatched, and I am grateful to have found someone as exceptional as Alison.”
