“Such a great experience! Yolanda was attentive to our pets and took lots of pictures for us to see how they were doing during their stay with her. I recommend Yolanda! We had no worries or concerns while she had the pups. That speaks volumes when you leave your fur babies for a week with another person. We would select Yolanda's profile again when we need a sitter. She was great!”

“Michele is the best, a kind hearted person with a gentle animal loving spirit. My little Archie was quickly at ease under her watch. Her setup for dog care is unrivaled in our community. 10/10- I will use her services again!”

“Amazing! I have never left my babies with anyone overnight. I am happy I chose Hillary. I had feedback and pictures at various times through the evening, which eased my mind. One of my babies is 12.5 years old, but he adapts pretty easy to any situation. The other is a rescue that we have had for about 6 months... He has a bit of anxiety when it comes to us leaving him. He proved me wrong! I would absolutely choose Hillary again.”

“Kira is amazing. My 2 Frenchies were right at home from the first moment. It usually takes them a while to warm up. They were so comfortable and stayed in their routine with no problem. Even my new puppy did well. Kira sent pictures throughout which was a great comfort to this dog Mom. I have already booked another stay for them and will make Kira my go to dog sitter in the future. She is terrific!”

“Fantastic!! First time I used Rover for my pup. I was so nervous having not left my fur child to stay at someone else's home before. Jenny put me at ease & kept me updated on how she was doing. She sent me videos & photos. I don't think my pup missed us at all with how much fun she had staying with Jenny. I will definitely use her again.”

“They are wonderful dog sitters! Our go-to sitters for our pups. Our pups loved playing with theirs and are always well taken care of. They were flexible with our booking and schedule. I’d give them more than 5 stars if I could!”

“Gwendolyn and her family took amazing care of my dog, Kobe, who has special needs due to his hyperactivity. From the start, they were incredibly welcoming and made him feel comfortable right away. It’s not always easy trusting others with a high energy dog, but they handled him with patience and genuine care. They kept me updated regularly, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. When Kobe came home, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for; it really showed how much attention and kindness they gave him. I’m very happy with the experience and would absolutely trust Gwendolyn and her family with Kobe again. I would definitely rebook them in the future.”

“Tracy and her family incorporated Cocoa, my dog, into their household: she had three other dogs to play with in a fenced yard, and she interacted with the family inside the house. Tracy sent a photo or video most days, usually showing Cocoa snuggled on the couch or with a family member. All together, by far a much better experience for Cocoa than staying in a kennel! I recommend Tracy for boarding your dog! I hope she can board mine again some time.”

“Leanna was absolutely amazing with our fur babies. She made sure they felt right at home while we were away. She went way above and beyond. I will be recommending her to everyone I know.”

About: Hi, my name is Sergii. I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for over 35 years. Now I have 2 dogs: a poodle and a boxer. My wife and I love dogs and they love us. We treat our dogs more like family members than pets. We know how it’s difficult to be away from your pup, regardless if it is only a couple of hours or days. We are a team - two very experienced dog owners. We have experience with senior dogs&cats, and pets with special needs; dogs&cats who are highly anxious, and pets who are hyper activity and need a lot of care and attention. Now we put our animal expertise to our small business for pet services. We aim to ensure your dog receives just as much love and care as it does in your presence. I’m willing to feed, walk and play with your dogs when you are not available. My schedule changes from week to week, as I’m still engaged in the transportation of pets, so always have wife for backup. We really care about healthy life style and guarantee the best care for them. I certified the American Red Cross for pet first aid as well. All animals under my care are insured, insurance policy included veterinarian reimbursement. Meeting new animal friends is something that will always bring me joy. Your dog will be in the professional and loving care when under my watch. If I sound like someone you could trust to care for your fur babies, please send me message. DROP-IN VISIT (At your house) I can go to your home multiple times per day to feed your pets food/water, go outside to potty & play, administer medications, etc. Just let me know how many times per day you’d like me to drop-in to check up on your pets/how much time you’d like me to spend while there and what you’d like me to do during drop-in visits and I will make it happen. A care summary report and photos of my drop-in visit with your pets will be sent after each drop-in. DOGGIE WALKS Walks are 30 minutes long, but can also include playtime if requested (e.g 20 minute walk + 10 minutes of play time). Meals, treats, water, and medication can be given before or after the walk if requested, just let me know and I would be more than happy to do that. A care summary report and photos from our walk will be sent after each walk. HOUSE SITTING I can care for your animals in your own home by ensuring your animals are safe and well cared for. I'll spend as much time with your pet as needed so that they have a true companion in your absence. I believe that the best pet care is done when your pet is in his/her own surroundings. I make sure gates and doors are closed and locked when needed, I follow safety checks in the home to ensure your pets are protected. In my clients home I will happily comply with any instructions to keep your pups safe. Anything that is needed for your fur babies!

“Hailey was the sweetest and kindest. She was extremely responsible and took car of our Maggie like she was her own. We highly recommend Hailey and will definitely be reaching out to her again for overnights with our pup!”

“I am a repeat customer with Susie Wessel, who is exceptional with DJ, my dog. From our initial meet-and-greet, it was evident she is both highly professional and deeply knowledgeable about animals. She took time to learn about DJ’s individual needs and explain her care philosophy, which immediately put my mind at ease. Susie sends wonderful pictures and updates, allowing me to relax and enjoy my time away. Seeing DJ happy, calm, and well looked after was the perfect reassurance. Her gentle, caring, and experienced approach left no doubt that DJ was in the best possible hands. If you want a sitter who truly treats your pet like their own and goes above and beyond, I can’t recommend Susie enough!”


About: I’ve owned animals since a young child and love them! I am first aid and CPR certified and dedicated to providing safety and comfort to any animals I visit. I love animals and your pets are safe with me! I work flexible hours and can easily handle any requests! I can accommodate most anything you or your pets would need. I am centrally located and efficient as well. I have a fenced yard and one dog that is used to others. My home is a safe space for animals. My yard is safe, clean and a great space to run and play in.
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs of different breeds for family and friends. I also helped my granny on the farm when she use to breed cocker spaniels. Puppies are perfect for cuddles but so are big dogs who think they still fit in your lap ! I enjoy taking my Doberman on runs in the park, he’s very friendly and loves meeting new pup pals ! Depending on the schedule my husband or son may be with me on the visits. My husband is military and often out of town so we enjoy dog walking and sitting together and cannot wait for our lives to settle down where we can add another fur baby to our tribe. I’m currently going to college and working but my hours are 9 to 5 which allow me to be flexible with morning and evening routines. I am currently not offering in home care for pets at this time. If this changes I will update my profile and detail sections. Thank you.
“Jennifer and her husband were amazing with our 5 month old puppy, Dallas! Jennifer sent me pictures everyday and I could tell how happy and loved he was while we were out of town for 6 nights! Highly recommend their services and will definitely be leaving Dallas with them again in the future! Thank you for taking great care of our baby!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Springfield home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Springfield.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Springfield sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in SC ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
