“Brooke was so good with our pup. She even helped him get potty trained while we were on vacation. She sent us videos, pictures, daily updates and even tips on training our dog. She’s very responsive and trustworthy. We didn’t worry at all and knew our puppy was in great hands! I cannot recommend her enough for your dog sitting needs.”
“Very patient with my 2 1/2 year old border collie who didn't have a lot of interaction with other dogs. She made special arrangements for him so he could have his own space and not feel overwhelmed!”
About: We have taken care of dogs most of our life. We’ve also became experts with senior dog care since ours has reached that stage. One is a diabetic so we understand the importance of medicine and a schedule. If your dog requires extra care, just let us know and we’ll make sure their given everything they need. Currently, we can offer service whenever you need it. We’ll be home all day to make sure your doggie gets all the attention they need to make their time away from you less stressful. We have a fenced in backyard to keep your fur baby safe, along with three other dogs to keep them company. If needed, we do have a crate that your dog can utilize while here.
“I am forever grateful and so thankful for Kaitlin. We were getting married and taking our honeymoon so I needed someone to keep our 3 pups during the process. This was our first time needing to use Rover and I am so happy we found Kaitlin. I was nervous about one dog in particular just because it was really her first time ever apart from me and Kaitlin walked me through the whole process, took the extra steps I needed to be comfortable leaving her and went out of her way to make sure I had daily updates the whole week they were with her. Having the peace of mind that my babies were being loved and treated like her own babies, and being able to physically see that with the updates, really allowed us to enjoy the wedding and honeymoon adventure. All 3 of my doggies came home happy and worn out from all their playing. I would not hesitate to leave my babies with Kaitlin again and I highly recommend her for your pets home away from home”
About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and enjoy spoiling them. I have two dogs and a chinchilla. We’ve previously owned cats as well but don’t have any in the home currently. I work Monday through Friday and have holidays off, which gives me plenty of time to spend with our pups. When I’m not working, I love playing, cuddling, and making sure they feel loved and spoiled. I would love the opportunity to welcome your pups into our home, give them lots of attention, and make them feel like part of the family. We have a large, fenced-in backyard where dogs have plenty of space to run, play, and explore. The yard is enclosed with a 5-foot chain-link fence to help keep everyone safe, including our dog Pepper, who loves to jump. We’re located in a quiet subdivision outside of town, away from busy highways, allowing us to provide a peaceful and secure environment for your pups to enjoy.
“Gerrad provided excellent care for my dog. He sent regular updates and made sure she was comfortable throughout the stay. He stayed on top of her daily medications and was easy to communicate with. We will definitely use him again if we need a sitter!”
“Payten is sweet, easy to work with and she is in a convenient location. Jovie was her normal self the next day rather than needing extra rest, which tells me it was a very good stay. Payten also sent me several pictures that told the story of how she was doing, but did not overwhelm me. I would be happy to use her services again.”
“Gretchen and her family did a wonderful job caring for our dog. Gretchen sent photos each day. Our dog was happy and well cared for! Definitely recommend! I will certainly be contacting Gretchen again!”
“Jennifer was awesome. She responded to my request immediately, had great reviews and two awesome Aussie Shepherds that Mika immediately became BFFs with. She sent me pictures and stayed in touch during my trip. Will definitely use her again when I'm in Springfield.”
“Linda is terrific! Her passion and experience is evident from the minute I met her. Her home is set up for the comfort of her dog's and is squeaky clean. My Beeps can be somewhat hesitant when put in an unfamiliar surrounding, especially when I am not with her. The many pictures Linda sent during the stay provided total assurance that Beeps was comfortable, enjoying her time with other dogs, and was being well loved. Linda is top notch at this and I would not hesitate to leave our pup with her again, should the need arise.”
“Karen and Delbert is wonderful with our boys! They are very well cared for and loved while in their care. Karen is great to send pics and daily updates. Highly reccommend!”
“Molly and her sweet daughter were wonderful with our corgis while they stayed with them for a week. We were at first a bit hesitant to leave them with someone we did not know since it was our first time. However, our dogs immediately warmed up to them upon meeting for the first time prior to booking. Molly communicated well and provided us with updates or any concerns or questions she had. We received cute photos of them playing in the yard and going for a pup cup. Our dogs appeared happy and well cared for upon pick up. We'd happily have Molly care for them again.”
“This was our first time using Rover, and we were so happy we chose to leave Parker with Dylan and family during our vacation. We have what you might call a “Velcro dog” who thrives on being with people, so traditional boarding is not a great option for him. They sent us daily updates and treated Parker as one of their own during his stay. A+ service!”
“Ashleigh was great with all aspects of our dog's stay. Great communication before and during the stay along with pictures of how our dog was doing. Lucy was comfortable with Ashleigh and her home, and we look forward to using her again!”
About: Hello! My name is Brooke and I have a precious English Springer Spaniel and had a beautiful Bernese Mountain Dog. I am a big dog lover and take my dog everywhere she can go with me! We love to hike, go biking, chase squirrels and the next door neighbors dog! I love spending time with animals, period, whether it’s playing with them or just taking them on a much needed walk! I also have house sat/pet sat for various families over the years and am extremely flexible with whatever families need. I have house sat/puppy sat from just a couple nights to several months at a time. I offer services of walking, in-home visits, over-night stays and quite frankly am flexible with any other situations that may come up! Thanks for reading and I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I currently work full time and even though I love puppies, would prefer to watch dogs that have a well established routine and can be ok for sometime alone before I can come and walk them and play with them. This is part of my personal routine with my own puppy. At this time I do not have a fenced in yard at my own home, so talking my dog for a long walk on the trails near my house is a must! For families where I am watching not only their animal but their home, I like to work within their animals normal routine so as not to add any more stress to the owners or the animal.
“Our super high separation anxiety diva lab was so happy when we picked her up and we got plenty of pictures and updates while we were gone. She went on walks, was fed and had the cutest play mate while being taken care of by Tyler. Definitely recommend”

“She is very attentive to the boys and with their age it can be a lot. She definitely seems to go above and beyond when she takes care of them. We used her previously and would use her again”
“Katelyn did an amazing job! She was very kind and easy to work with. It gave me peace of mind knowing she was looking after my cat, and I felt comfortable having her in my home. I would definitely book with her again!”
About: I’ve own 3 cats in the past, Lana, Goochy and currently Milly. 2 of them were family cats but Milly is my own. I’ve adopted Milly from my sister because she liked me more. I’ve also personally saved my cat Milly’s life about 3 times. True story.

“kate is great! our pickles was so well taken care of. she wrote detailed messages and attached photos everyday so we knew how our girl was doing without us. very thankful that we knew she was in good hands!”

“Morgan was very sweet and took great care of my cat. She took photos and videos for us, played with her, and cuddled with her. I deeply appreciate Morgan treating our baby just like her own. Highly recommend”
About: Working with cats is something I enjoy. Even when they can be a little challenging I can’t help but be endeared. After working in the rescue environment I don’t shy away from cats who may have any kind of special needs!
“We are so pleasantly impressed with Breelyn overall customer service, communication skills and kindness towards our pets! She took the time to meet our cats before the scheduled visits, took notes with things expected of her during the visits and followed up with every single thing as discussed. We received daily updates and pictures, and she took wonderful care of our 3 ? while we were away (our sweet babies are older and of course particular in some ways). She's the best,and we will definitely ask for her assistance again in the future. Highly recommended! P.S. Additionally, Breelyn is one of the sweetest persons we've met in a long time, very responsible and professional. This young Lady will go far!”
“I am so grateful for Ara! She did amazing with my young, large dog who can be a handful sometimes. She was very attentive and went above & beyond, making sure all my animals had their needs met & enough attention and love. I appreciate the communication I received as well throughout my trip. Will absolutely be using her again!”
About: I’ve actually been pet sitting for years and have volunteer experience with the ASPCA. I’ve cared for senior and special needs dogs. We love all pets though I’ve even pet sat lizards snakes and cats. My schedule is pretty flexible I work remotely as a contractor for a big company Monday through Friday. Although I’d prefer daytime bookings let me know what you’re needing My dogs eat chicken free food cause our pug is allergic. Mushu’s special care is we wipe his wrinkles & ears daily with a weekly bath. Buddy is a tank who can eat anything but he needs his paws trimmed once a month. Buddy deals with anxiety from being a sheepdog with no sheep so he has lots of toys and an occasional cbd treat.
“Halle did a wonderful job of taking care of our 2 cats The perceptive, thoughtful, and caring feedback she gave, about our cats, and the photos she sent were very much appreciated and helpful We would certainly use her services again”
“Katie is the best cat and house sitter ever! The cats loved her from the first minute she walked through the door to meet them! She is trustworthy and responsible. I will hire Katie anytime I have to leave my fur babies!”
About: I’ve always had a cat in my life, my first pet was a cat and she was my best friend. They all have very different personalities and are very smart and have always been very special to me. I don’t think I could ever not have a cat in my lifetime!
About: Hi, I’m Drew, a proud dog dad to my Doberman Azula Kiyoshi and my late Golden Retriever Marley Appa. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I’ve spent more than 20 years caring for pets. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. When a pet is in my care, they’re treated like family and receive the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, boarding stay, or house sitting, I do my best to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away. I invite you to read my reviews from other pet parents who have trusted me with their pets. I have a flexible schedule and can often accommodate last-minute bookings, including weekends. When your pet stays with me, their routine and comfort are my priority. I have a flexible schedule and more then willing to take last minute request on the weekends. Your pup schedule becomes my schedule. I am flexible. When your pet is in my care, they will be in a safe, calm, and loving environment. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for while you are away.
About: I volunteered at CARE which is a no kill pet shelter for cats and dogs in 2014 and recently started volunteering at this place again, February 2018. My duties included feeding and making sure the animals had enough water. Cleaned out kennels and cages and would take the dogs outside and walk them. I have had dogs and cats since I was born and currently had a dog who loved being around other cats and dogs. She loved to play with animals as well and loved children. Her name was Daisy she is in my profile pic with me. Daisy was euthanized on September 1st, 2023. I now have another dog whose name is Emma. She’s a year old and as long as it’s ok with a client I bring her to pet sitting jobs. She loves other animals including cats and loves to play. She’s lovable and affectionate and loves attention. I also have a cat and her name is Maizy. She is four years old and I got her when she was almost 4 weeks old. I would take Daisy for walks and if I could take her with me to other places I did. One of the places I took her was to the pet store. I no longer wear a mask unless I have to. If you prefer for me to wear one please let me know and I will wear one. I use to work at a job which required me to work a 10 hour shift. I am now working at a full time job which has 8 hour shifts. I can work around my schedule if needed. My supervisor does work with me on switching my days around if needed. I can’t keep your pet in my apartment due to rules and restrictions but I can come to your home. I will provide my own food and necessities.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life—both big and small. I’ve aways been interested in dog training and care. I have had my dog for the past 5 years--she is off leash trained, walks in heel, and gets along super well with other dogs. I am a third year medical student, managing my studies and my own dogs life! I have a fairly flexible schedule and love hanging out and caring for dogs. I live in an apartment, so my own dog gets at least two walks a day. We walk on the trails around Springfield and love to explore the parks.

“Brooke E was an absolute life saver I was in a bind and she was able to help me out. When I first met her king gave her lots of loves and then just laid in her arms it made me happy and worry free using her. Thank you again Brooke. I highly recommend her!!!!”

“Great with our two dogs! Extremely patient and kind with our very vocal husky mix, and skittish collie. There is plenty of room for dogs to feel safe in their own areas. Will be using again for sitting needs.”
“First time ever leaving my fur babies with a stranger, and I am happy I chose the right person to do so. Courtney and her kids were incredibly helpful and took great care of my 10-year-old Boxer and 13-year-old Plott Hound. They made sure both dogs felt comfortable and at ease. Their home was clean and welcoming, and the kids and toys kept my dogs happy and entertained the whole time. Definitely would go back to Courtney if I am in town again!”
“Linda is amazing! She’s super friendly and responded quickly to my urgent request for a place for Stormie to go today. I highly recommend her! Stormie had fun and is worn out from playing all day. ♥️♥️”
“Bree did a great job with my two needy dogs. We were in the midst of moving and with doors open, movers in and out, and Hoodini living again in the form of a dog, it was best they be some place more peaceful and secure. The second day there were excited to be out the door and off to the car to see Bree! They sat quietly most of the day watching doggy TV, which is what they needed. The dogs obviously liked her, even our shy reluctant one. I definitely taking them to her again! She knew they needed peace and quiet and gave them that.”
“Amanda was great. Mason had a great time and was very happy and playful when we picked up. We needed her on VERY short notice due to a family member being in hospital, and she was very accommodating!!! Will definitely us again if needed!!!!”
“I’ve been using Heather’s pet sitting services 2–3x/week for over 2 years now. She is the absolute best. She will provide such loving, enriching care for your dog. My dog is exhausted from all the play and excitement when I come to pick her up, and that’s exactly what she needs because she doesn’t get enough of that otherwise. Heather has gone out of her way countless times to make sure my dog is taken care of. I’d never consider another dog sitter at this point unless I absolutely had to.”
“So glad I found a sitter I can trust! Wally loves visiting with Piper and making new friends. He seems to be very content here. I’m grateful for the pics, videos, updates, etc and making sure he gets some rest during the boundless energy he has.”

About: I’ve owned at least one dog on my own since 2011. It’s me and my Dixie girl right now. She loves to play and also loves to chill on the couch! I work from home, so I am home most of the day to care for your dog! Frequent potty breaks, any type of feeding schedule, we can make it work! I have a fenced yard and love to be outside playing fetch or with other toys. I also love to lay on the couch and snuggle!
About: I’ve spent most of my life caring for dogs and cats and currently have two Australian Shepherds that I’ve raised since they were young. That experience has given me a strong foundation in daily care, structure, and understanding the needs of active intelligent dogs including consistent routines, exercise, grooming, feeding, and creating a stable and low stress environment. I take a calm, attentive, and highly observant approach to animal care. I pay close attention to behavior, comfort levels, and routine details and I adjust my care to match each pet’s individual personality and needs. My focus is always on maintaining familiarity and consistency so pets feel secure while their owners are away. I provide walks, drop in visits, daycare, and overnight care with an emphasis on reliability, communication, and thoughtful care. I do not believe in a one size fits all approach and each pet receives individualized attention based on what keeps them happiest and most comfortable. My goal is simple to be a dependable steady presence that pet owners can trust completely knowing their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine, and my schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day. I am able to offer walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and attentive check ins based on each pet’s needs. I have experience caring for many pets, and I am used to maintaining structure, recognizing behavior cues, and keeping pets comfortable, active, and engaged. I focus on providing a calm and reliable presence so pets feel secure while their owners are away, and I aim to keep their routine as consistent and stress free as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or providing walks and drop-in visits, I’ll follow their routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and any special instructions you provide. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure while their owners are away. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision, and I’ll always treat your home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own.
“Raquel treats your pups like her own. I started taking my young pup to her while I am at work a couple of days a week, and each time Murph comes home she seems full of love and ready to sleep from all of the playing! Every morning when we drive up to Raquel’s house Murph cannot get to her front door fast enough… she gets so excited to play with Raquel and her four legged friends! Thank you Raquel for treating my girl like your own!”
About: Welcome Welcome! I am also the business owner of 360 Care & Handling LLC! 🥳 For the the first part of August, I am offering introductory pricing for NEW clients! Pricing will go back to the normal rate on 8/15. I specialize in cats, but also care for dogs! I recently had a peer-reviewed article published in the IAABC Foundation Journal, so be sure to check that out! A few quick notes: my drop-in and house-sitting radius are two different numbers, however Rover will only allow providers to set one number for all services. I will ask for your general location to confirm that I can safely provide the service you are requesting, Rover does not share your address until both parties have confirmed a booking. I have been engaging in animal care and husbandry in varying capacities and roles for years. I have experience caring for sick animals and specialize in comfort during care, animal quarantine protocols, and Fear Free/Low-Stress handling. I prefer to take a comprehensive approach to care, and make sure that anything I bring to your booking for your pets is preapproved by you! I carry my own insurance policy, separate from the Rover guarantee, and can provide proof of policy upon request. I currently work a full-time job in tech and work from 9am-5pm. I am unable to take client calls during that time unless there is an emergency. I will respond to texts as quickly as possible. For my house-sitting clients, I do require that there be internet in your home and access be granted to me so that I can spend most of the day with your pets, and not need to relocate during business hours. House-sitting clients should also expect that I will need to leave at least once a day to go take care of my own cats and any drop-ins that I have scheduled. Typically the average I have in a day is 3, but during the holiday season that number is higher. Thankfully, my schedule is fairly flexible with enough notice! I can typically pencil in drop-in appointments wherever needed, and for house sitting I am able to accommodate most requests. I am unable to offer constant care at this time due to my own pets' medical needs, and this is non-negotiable. I’m safety conscious, especially when it comes to medical needs! My shoes are sprayed with Lysol between client homes, and I carry hibiclense, a surgical soap, to use in between homes as well! If I suspect an animal is ill or injured, their owner will be notified ASAP, and I will change clothes prior to my next appointment! I take kennel cough, FIV/FELV, and parvo very seriously. If you would like for me to wear a mask while in your home, you just have to ask! I am vaccinated for the flu, covid, and have an up-to-date tetanus shot. All drop-in clients receive Rover cards with photos and written updates regarding their pet's care. Housesitting clients will typically receive one AM and one PM text every day, detailing how their pets are doing. Client privacy is also at the forefront of my mind-- I only post photos of pets with permission, I blur out ID tags, and scan the backgrounds of photos to ensure that there are no identifying features. Photos are geo-tagged with the county/state, but nothing closer than that, and permission to post can be revoked at any time for any reason. I do not disclose where I am sitting or for whom. If someone asks about it, I typically state that I am a friend of the family helping them out. My Instagram username is 360careandhandling.
About: I have taken care of my own pets and friends, and neighbors for the past years since i was at least 13. I love animals and every kind! This is basically my job right now as a stay at home momma so i’m always here or always available to your pet for whatever they need! I have a front yard that is not fenced. I have 2 doggos and a one year old, we are a very pet friendly home :) My dogs are good with other dogs as well and my daughter loves dogs!! Me and my husband have a pretty good schedule so someone is usually always here with our pets.
About: I've been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have spent most of my life caring for and training them. My experience includes breeds such as American Staffordshire Terriers, Cane Corsos, and Pit Bulls, as well as many other types of dogs. I also fostered 12 dogs through the Humane Society of Southwest Missouri, working with a wide range of breeds including Mastiffs, Huskies, Heelers, and Terriers. Through fostering, I’ve helped dogs recovering from hip surgeries, heartworm treatment, and other medical needs, while also learning how to adapt to different personalities, energy levels, and care requirements. Over the years, this experience has strengthened my ability to help all dogs feel safe, comfortable, and loved! I'm available to board during the weekdays a majority of the time and sometimes weekends depending on availability. I'd be with your pet all day unless a quick grocery run or other short side quest. I have a fenced yard of about 0.40 acres, providing plenty of space for dogs to run and burn energy. My neighbor also has dogs, allowing for possible socialization if appropriate. I also have an XL crate available if needed, ensuring a safe and comfortable space for any dog. Otherwise, they would be with me playing and relaxing, if requested I can also walk with them and take them to some parks!

About: From growing up with dogs to living and working at a mastiff rescue, and now sharing a life with my goofy, sweet blue heeler, Simone, my love for and experience with dogs runs deep. As a good friend once said, dogs can’t lie, and we can’t lie to them. Building trust is my first priority. I have a flexible work schedule with lots of daytime availability and am often available for overnights with notice. Weekdays and weekends open for scheduling. I have a large, fenced yard and a dog door in and out of the house with the option to close-off if necessary. I have one dog who loves new friends and sharing her toys.

I’ve taken care of countless animals, volunteer at an animal shelter, have had multiple pets over the years, and have a hobby of rescuing stray animals. I would love to help with anything needed.

About: I’ve spent most of my life caring for dogs and cats and currently have two Australian Shepherds that I’ve raised since they were young.

I do not believe in a one size fits all approach and each pet receives individualized attention based on what keeps them happiest and most comfortable. My goal is simple to be a dependable steady presence that pet owners can trust completely knowing their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine, and my schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day. I am able to offer walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and attentive check ins based on each pet’s needs. I have experience caring for many pets, and I am used to maintaining structure, recognizing behavior cues, and keeping pets comfortable, active, and engaged. I focus on providing a calm and reliable presence so pets feel secure while their owners are away, and I aim to keep their routine as consistent and stress free as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or providing walks and drop-in visits, I’ll follow their routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and any special instructions you provide. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure while their owners are away. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision, and I’ll always treat your home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own.

“Morgan is always SO excited to see Laurelai! She's kind and even brought my Amazon packages inside for me! She has great communication and was able to walk Morgan the same day when I forgot to book ahead of time. I've used her a few times now and plan on having her walk Morgan when needed in the future!”
About: I have a wide variety of experience caring for animals, all the way from cats to horses! With two dogs and two cats of my own (and many more throughout the years), I’ve faced my fair share of complications and situations but have been able to handle them accordingly. I’ve had to care for pets with arthritis, hip and bone disease and elderly pets as well new puppies. I’m experienced in basic training such as sit, stay, and lay down. I am a college student! Though my availability is is odd sometimes, i will always make sure to be there for your furry companions and give them the best care they need. I will treat your babies like my own! Depending on their needs, they will receive walks, playtime, nap times, and just plain fun! I like to keep them involved with my daily life (car rides, dog parks, etc.) and allow them to become comfortable with me on their own time! Every dog or cat is different and I’m willing to do whatever to make sure they are safe, happy, and healthy while you’re out!

About: I’ve had my own dog for the past two years and personally potty trained her, taught her tricks, and trained her to be comfortable and well-behaved around people. I also worked in child care for two years, which taught me patience, responsibility, and how to care for others with attention and love. I treat every dog with the same care and protection I would give a one-year-old baby, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well looked after while you’re away. I’m available Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday all day, and Wednesday from 8:00 AM – 2:00 PM. I’m flexible during those times and happy to work with your pet’s routine.

“I am forever grateful and so thankful for Kaitlin. We were getting married and taking our honeymoon so I needed someone to keep our 3 pups during the process. This was our first time needing to use Rover and I am so happy we found Kaitlin. I was nervous about one dog in particular just because it was really her first time ever apart from me and Kaitlin walked me through the whole process, took the extra steps I needed to be comfortable leaving her and went out of her way to make sure I had daily updates the whole week they were with her. Having the peace of mind that my babies were being loved and treated like her own babies, and being able to physically see that with the updates, really allowed us to enjoy the wedding and honeymoon adventure. All 3 of my doggies came home happy and worn out from all their playing. I would not hesitate to leave my babies with Kaitlin again and I highly recommend her for your pets home away from home”
About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and enjoy spoiling them. I have two dogs and a chinchilla. We’ve previously owned cats as well but don’t have any in the home currently. I work Monday through Friday and have holidays off, which gives me plenty of time to spend with our pups. When I’m not working, I love playing, cuddling, and making sure they feel loved and spoiled. I would love the opportunity to welcome your pups into our home, give them lots of attention, and make them feel like part of the family. We have a large, fenced-in backyard where dogs have plenty of space to run, play, and explore. The yard is enclosed with a 5-foot chain-link fence to help keep everyone safe, including our dog Pepper, who loves to jump. We’re located in a quiet subdivision outside of town, away from busy highways, allowing us to provide a peaceful and secure environment for your pups to enjoy.
“Gerrad provided excellent care for my dog. He sent regular updates and made sure she was comfortable throughout the stay. He stayed on top of her daily medications and was easy to communicate with. We will definitely use him again if we need a sitter!”
“Payten is sweet, easy to work with and she is in a convenient location. Jovie was her normal self the next day rather than needing extra rest, which tells me it was a very good stay. Payten also sent me several pictures that told the story of how she was doing, but did not overwhelm me. I would be happy to use her services again.”
“Jennifer was awesome. She responded to my request immediately, had great reviews and two awesome Aussie Shepherds that Mika immediately became BFFs with. She sent me pictures and stayed in touch during my trip. Will definitely use her again when I'm in Springfield.”
“Karen and Delbert is wonderful with our boys! They are very well cared for and loved while in their care. Karen is great to send pics and daily updates. Highly reccommend!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and we were so happy we chose to leave Parker with Dylan and family during our vacation. We have what you might call a “Velcro dog” who thrives on being with people, so traditional boarding is not a great option for him. They sent us daily updates and treated Parker as one of their own during his stay. A+ service!”
About: Hello! My name is Brooke and I have a precious English Springer Spaniel and had a beautiful Bernese Mountain Dog. I am a big dog lover and take my dog everywhere she can go with me! We love to hike, go biking, chase squirrels and the next door neighbors dog! I love spending time with animals, period, whether it’s playing with them or just taking them on a much needed walk! I also have house sat/pet sat for various families over the years and am extremely flexible with whatever families need. I have house sat/puppy sat from just a couple nights to several months at a time. I offer services of walking, in-home visits, over-night stays and quite frankly am flexible with any other situations that may come up! Thanks for reading and I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I currently work full time and even though I love puppies, would prefer to watch dogs that have a well established routine and can be ok for sometime alone before I can come and walk them and play with them. This is part of my personal routine with my own puppy. At this time I do not have a fenced in yard at my own home, so talking my dog for a long walk on the trails near my house is a must! For families where I am watching not only their animal but their home, I like to work within their animals normal routine so as not to add any more stress to the owners or the animal.
“Our super high separation anxiety diva lab was so happy when we picked her up and we got plenty of pictures and updates while we were gone. She went on walks, was fed and had the cutest play mate while being taken care of by Tyler. Definitely recommend”
“My dogs received the best care from Sabrina. She communicated often and shared fun photos and videos. They loved playing with her dog Dottie and were well cared for. I’d definitely recommend Sabrina to anyone needing a loving dog sitter.”
About: I’ve spent most of my life caring for dogs and cats and currently have two Australian Shepherds that I’ve raised since they were young. That experience has given me a strong foundation in daily care, structure, and understanding the needs of active intelligent dogs including consistent routines, exercise, grooming, feeding, and creating a stable and low stress environment. I take a calm, attentive, and highly observant approach to animal care. I pay close attention to behavior, comfort levels, and routine details and I adjust my care to match each pet’s individual personality and needs.

“Ashlyn and her pets were fantastic with my sometimes-reactive dog. She listened to my cautious instructions and made sure my dog had a warm start-up to his week-long stay. Thank you!! Will be returning in the future :).”
About: I’ve taken care of many kinds of dogs, cats, and horses from a young age. I also have experience in dog grooming, ranging from small to large dogs. I am fluent in American Sign Language. I am flexible as I work from home. I normally check pets at least two times a day, but more check in times are available upon request. I have a friendly dog who loves to play and make new friends. He will be very helpful in helping young dogs learn how to socialize.
About: My financee, Garrett, and I have cared for the wellbeing of several types of dogs since we were children. We live together, but it will primarily be me who is home with the dogs and if you need help in your home, it will always be me you will speak too. We have two fur babies together and would love to help you care for yours! I work 3 minutes from home and can usually return with in a few hours on days when I have to go to the office, which is fairly rare. I do work a 9-5, but I work hybrid remote. I have a fully privacy fenced in back yard. I let my own dogs out every 3-5 hours for the bathroom, as they are grown and do not need let out much, but I am able to accomodate any bathroom schedule necessary. I am able to keep a meds and feeding schedule as well as an exercise schedule easily with my job flexabilty. Our dogs sleep with us and eat twice a day. We keep a clean, happy home and love to let our dogs out back to run and play often! In the evenings, my fiancee and I can walk your dog or dogs with our own babies as we have multiple leashes with dual or multi-capacity.
“Anne watched my dog over a recent weekend, and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience. My dog can be a bit timid and struggles with some separation anxiety, but Anne was wonderful with her. She kept me updated with pictures and videos showing my dog calm, comfortable, and getting along beautifully. It gave me a lot of peace of mind, and I would absolutely feel comfortable leaving my dog with Anne again anytime.”
About: From growing up with dogs to living and working at a mastiff rescue, and now sharing a life with my goofy, sweet blue heeler, Simone, my love for and experience with dogs runs deep. As a good friend once said, dogs can’t lie, and we can’t lie to them. Building trust is my first priority. I have a flexible work schedule with lots of daytime availability and am often available for overnights with notice. Weekdays and weekends open for scheduling. I have a large, fenced yard and a dog door in and out of the house with the option to close-off if necessary. I have one dog who loves new friends and sharing her toys.
“Brooke took care of my 2 cats for 5 days and treated them the same as if they were her own. She is very knowledgeable about feline behavior and tuned into the adjustment process they were going through being in a new place. I was very impressed with the way she helped my kitties feel safe, calm, and entertained like spaces they could have privacy, a cat tree to play or sleep on, and assorted toys (they loved the robot laser!). We clarified how frequently I wished to be updated on how they were doing and she gave me details about their activity, eating and drinking, and when she tucked them in for the night. Highly recommend and will undoubtedly hire Brooke again.”
