“If you’re looking for a reliable Rover in Springfield, Brooke is your person. My corgi Diego instantly fell in love with her space and she did was so attentive to what he needed to thrive. She was quick with communicating and always sent photos of his time with her! I cannot recommend Brooke enough and will only be using her if I’m back in Springfield!”

About: I have taken care of pets for over 33 years ever since getting my first dog at 7 years old. I’ve had dogs of all sizes and shapes including a Lhasa Apso, King Charles Spaniel, Golden Retrievers, Pitbull, Shihpoo, and Heeler/Daschund mix. They’ve ranged in ages from 8 week old puppy to 5 year old rescue when I brought them home and I nursed many through their senior years. Of course I love all pets so I’ve also had Bunnies, Fish, Cats, hermit crabs, frogs, and more. I love them all! Currently in my home I have a 1 year old Shihpoo name Mocha and a 5 year old Heeler/Dauschund mix named Luna. I promise to take care of your fur babies just as if they were mine! I am a single mother with lots of time on my hands to love on pets. I have a daughter in Junior High and a son in High School so I do run them back and forth to their activities but otherwise I’m ready to spend time with the fur babies. I have a fenced in backyard in a quiet neighborhood. I have a couple big trees for shade while pets are playing outdoors and a covered back porch for relaxing.

“Mikala was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Remy and treated her like part of the family. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear Remy was happy and comfortable. Mikala was also incredibly flexible and understanding when my drop-off plans changed multiple times, and her communication was excellent from start to finish. She even reached out after I picked Remy up because she found one of Remy’s bowls and offered to ship it back to me. That level of thoughtfulness really meant a lot. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I would absolutely trust Mikala with Remy again. Highly recommend!”

About: Booking with me allows for your dog to get a well rounded experience that will keep them comfortable while also providing fun and healthy experiences for them! I live on a 40 acre farm that has many trails, animals, and senes that keep your dog happy, safe, and busy! I also have studied k9 behavior and know how to provide your dog socialization and stimulation! I am currently a student at a local college where I play basketball! This allows me to be home in between classes and practices unlike somebody with a full time job. I can provide potty brakes every 2-4 hours as well as walks and play time! I have loved animals since I can remember! Making sure they are happy and well cared for is a must! I will treat your pet as my own and I understand your pet is not just an animal but rather a member of your family! Ensuring they are treated as such is important to me. Fresh water, attention, play time, cuddles, and more are very important to me. I also understand you need updates! Pictures and frequent communication between me and you is also important to me!

About: I'm excited to be watching dogs again! I also watch entire farms, and many different types of animals.. just ask. Until I get a steady amount of pups per month, I do work outside the home M-F. My home is a TinyHome (12x40 shed conversion) =480 sq ft of play space, and a big yard (now fenced!) and a local park nearby. I've been pet sitting since I was 10. I LOVE dogs! I can administer medication both oral and with a shot under the skin. I ask that the dogs that I sit to be house/potty trained, unless it's a puppy younger than 6 months, and we've chatted about the pups needs. They also need to be able to put a leash on them, without any agression. Snappy or biting dogs aren't a good fit for me or my own dogs. >> I want your pet to be as relaxed and happy as I can make them. I will take any age, and any size dog :) "Exercise is the key to well behaved dogs..a tired puppy is a well behaved puppy" and I can't wait to meet you and your pups! Check out my reviews please! I work away from home currently, but with enough pups visiting, I will transition back to being home full time! When I'm home I incorporate your furbaby into me and my pup's life completely, as if they are one of the family, for the entirety of his/ her stay with me. 🥰🐾

About: I have taken care of animals since I was 10 years old. This includes cats and dogs with special needs such as permanent injuries, animal aggression and seizures. Volunteered at animal shelters all of middle and high school. Very loving and kind with all animals. I work full time as an electrician, however my schedule is very flexible and I have all weekends off. I only work a regular 8 hour day and have plenty of time to spare after work for your beloved furry family member. I live in an apartment but fortunately it has its own dog park area, nearby parks, walking paths and hiking locations. I am very active and enjoy high energy dogs, but I also enjoy relaxing and giving plenty of ear scratches to dogs that like their lazy days.

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 grown up with, and been taking care of dogs majority of my life. I know how important it is to make sure your dog is in good hands and would love to help you out! Could definitely do morning and evening care. I have some flexibility with work, so depending on your needs, we can definitely work something out in between that! I believe in maintaining structure (yes, even for dogs). They do better when they know what to expect too. I will do my best to learn your routine, their quirks, and make them as comfortable as possible and maintain your routine as I do with my own dog!

About: Hello and welcome to our little side of dog paradise! I will need a meet and greet before I can commit to any extent of stay. All dogs must be current on shots and show no symptoms of infection or intestinal issues. Charlie, my last dog was a dachshund, she was not a good social fit for most dogs and we were very limited in taking her or leaving her with anybody. I loved her dearly but she was a total pill! Dottie our new cattle dog mix is just wonderful with other dogs, and because she loves to play...here we are on this site! Dottie is such a great host to all dogs in our house I thought why not? I work from home and also have times where I need to be gone but never for more than 3 hours at a time. I will never book if I am too busy to be a good dog parent. That is a promise. I have a flexible schedule that I am in charge of at all times. I would like to see a complete profile with photos to consider a booking. I am not looking to make this my primary business and only want to cater to the right pets that fit our life. I am not a dog trainer but do love them dearly when they are in my care. A good fit for us is a typical fun loving dog that likes everybody and wants to play and walk. I do believe another good fit would be the super lazy or old pet that just likes to lay around or be petted. I am all about them. They need to be house trained crate trained is a plus. I can’t take any aggressive tendencies toward kids, cats or other dogs. I would also like to avoid dogs that have intense anxiety or tend to be destructive. If our home sounds like a good fit reach out! Our days start early at 6:00am Monday-Friday, the weekends depend on our Schedule. We are also early to bed at 8:00pm so would like to avoid late pick ups but can understand if it’s a late flight or a long drive in a day to get back home. I Have a nice house in an awesome south east Springfield neighborhood, It comes with a wood 6ft privacy fence. I have a 9 year old kid who loves pets as well. We have Felix, a 3 year old male tabby who comes in and out on his own free will at all times of the day. He is indifferent to dogs, doesn't want to hang out with them but not going to bite or attack anybody. He is a good boy. Dottie is our new adopted dog. We got her from care rescue shelter in August 2025 to foster and eventually sealed the deal for keeps. She is a lovely little creature that loves to play and run around the backyard with her other dog buddies. Dottie has a crate and we still use it at times but she is pretty well allowed to roam around. She is crate trained and potty trained. Basically I am pretty easy dog mamma. If they need rest, they get it. If they want to play and run they can. They come in and out when they want. That's how we roll at our house.

About: I have cared for pets all my life. I have always had a dog or 2 in my house that are spoiled and had me well trained. I owned a dog boarding, daycare, and grooming business in Ozark for 8 years.. I retired about four years ago. Since I am retired, I am home most of the day, except for a few errands to run occasionally. I live alone with two senior dogs who get along with most other animals. There are no children in the house. My home is all one level, with a fully fenced backyard. Fur babies cared for in my home have free run of the house, are allowed to be on the furniture, (unless the owner request differently). I am capable of crating your loved one if they are already crate trained… Your fur babies will get lots of love and ear scratches. I’m experienced in various diets and food prep along with medication’s, including injections.

About: I grew up with my best friend Reuben, the family St. Bernard. My love for caring for pets has never ceased. I love and respect dogs and believe that if I love your dogs like I love mine, they will feel secure and confident until you come home. Additionally, having been a homeowner for many years, I am a fantastic house sitter. I have an extensive frame of reference if something presents itself that I need to address or call to your attention. If you like, I can bring in your mail and water your plants. And optional services can include running errands, shopping in preparation for your return, running packages to drop off, weeding landscaped beds, organizing projects, cleaning projects, and anything that you’ve wanted to accomplish but haven’t had the time. I work remote part-time, so I can work from anywhere and am available most of the time for overnight stays, or just visits and walks. Taking care of your pet(s) in your home offers your pet(s) the most familiarity because we will follow your protocol and structure to which they are accustomed. Occasionally I will care for pets in my home.

About: Combining my years of pet experience with my current flexibility as a stay-at-home wife allows me to provide an incredibly attentive, safe, and loving environment for your dog. As a stay-at-home wife, my schedule is incredibly flexible, so pet care fits perfectly into my daily life. Since I manage our household from home, I don't have a rigid 9-to-5 commute. This means your pet becomes a natural part of my day. I structure my routine around their needs—whether that’s morning walks, mid-day playtime in the yard, or just having them keep me company while I’m taking care of things around the house. They are rarely left alone and get consistent attention throughout the day I treat every furry friend exactly like my own They have full access to our main living spaces, plenty of comfortable spots to lounge, and they are never left unattended for long periods. I stick closely to whatever feeding, medication, and bathroom schedule they are used to at home so their routine stays completely normal. You can trust they are good hands.

About: I’ve been dog sitting for four years now watching my sister‘s dogs and my neighbors dogs and my dad‘s friends dogs for a long time now and I’ve grown to love it so I thought it would be nice to be able to help other people as well!! I’ve been babysitting for the last two years for two year-old. I started babysitting her when she was two months old, but I only babysit her 1 to 2 days a week so I’m free quite a lot. I have a big fenced in backyard and a lot of free space in my house. I live on a farm, so I’m pretty educated when it comes to animals and I worked at a vet clinic for two years!!

About: I grew up with dogs, helping my parents raise English and French bulldogs for 10 years in our family kennel, which was USDA certified. I've always had at least two dogs in the house (plus the 32 we owned in the kennel!) and I now have two dogs of my own (ages 13 and 5) at home with my husband. I have been raising/house training dogs almost my entire life and I love them to pieces! I am experienced with dogs of all ages and sizes, and I love going on walks with them and playing with them. I am a stay at home mom, so I am almost always available, with the exception of Sundays between 9am and 3pm. Please drop off for a boarding stay or schedule a drop-in/dog walk time either before or after those times on Sundays. I am available for meet and greets every weekend and every weeknight after 5pm! I can't wait to love on your pup! I am currently a stay at home mom, and I'm available for drop off or drop ins any time during the day if you let me know in advance. Available for meet and greet’s most weekday evening after 5pm (with at least one days advance notice) or on weekends. I have a fenced yard with two friendly dogs who have separate sleeping spaces. All dogs eat in their crates (please bring a crate for boarding) and sleep in them at night. Dogs can all be separated or together as needed and are free to go outside all day every day through the dog door.

About: I’ve cared for and trained my own dogs over the years, so I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family member. I’m home throughout the day, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, frequent potty breaks, playtime, and daily walks. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, crate routines, and any house rules you use at home. My goal is to make their stay feel comfortable, safe, and as much like home as possible! I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I’m able to spend lots of time with the dogs in my care rather than leaving them alone for long periods. We have a fenced yard for supervised play and potty breaks, and I can provide at least one walk each day along with plenty of playtime and attention. I know leaving your dog with someone new can be nerve-racking, especially the first time, so I’m also happy to send pictures and updates throughout their stay. ❤️ Every dog is different, and I’m happy to learn their routine, personality, favorite things, and little quirks so they can feel right at home while they’re here. I have a fenced yard and will play in the yard with them. I will do prioritize comfort and brain stimulation by allowing for a lot of playtime and walks if your dog allows.

About: I’m a stay at home mom who manages our small hobby farm. I have ten years of hands-on animal care and I have been around many dogs in that time. I am very active and love to be outside, rain or shine. I have a 6 year old mix we rescued from a shelter I volunteer at locally. We got her when she was just a year old and struggling to acclimate. She’s our little couch potato and will snuggle anyone. She is the most kind and gentle momma. I have experience with high energy and high anxiety dogs. No dog is too big or too small for me. I also have experience giving dogs medication and feeding on schedules. I like to go above and beyond to ensure your pets get treated like mine would. I work from home managing our small hobby farm. I make my own schedule so I can be flexible most days! I am up at 6 am with the sun and available. I respect your home and your animal just as I would my own. I know it can be stressful having someone in your home and around your pets so I communicate a lot! My home has a large 6 ft. fenced in yard and beyond that is our fields. The farm is separate from the home and yard area and your pet will never go up to the farm.

I’m respectful of your home and your space, and I’ll always treat it with the same care and respect I would my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are in a safe, loving, and trustworthy environment while you’re away! 🐾

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.

“If rating system was higher, it wouldn’t be enough to compliment this fine person! A splendid experience as we were off getting married, he made sure the dogs were ABSOLUTELY LOVED and he shared the same passion that we do for these dogs. I would 100% return to this sitter.”

“Payten was an exceptional dog sitter for our two pups during their week-long stay. Her house and yard were perfect for our dogs to play and relax in. Communication was timely, and she was very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. Payten's friendly demeanor made us feel at ease leaving our pets in her care. Highly recommend!”

About: I have taken care of pets for over 33 years ever since getting my first dog at 7 years old. I’ve had dogs of all sizes and shapes including a Lhasa Apso, King Charles Spaniel, Golden Retrievers, Pitbull, Shihpoo, and Heeler/Daschund mix. They’ve ranged in ages from 8 week old puppy to 5 year old rescue when I brought them home and I nursed many through their senior years. Of course I love all pets so I’ve also had Bunnies, Fish, Cats, hermit crabs, frogs, and more. I love them all! Currently in my home I have a 1 year old Shihpoo name Mocha and a 5 year old Heeler/Dauschund mix named Luna. I promise to take care of your fur babies just as if they were mine! I am a single mother with lots of time on my hands to love on pets. I have a daughter in Junior High and a son in High School so I do run them back and forth to their activities but otherwise I’m ready to spend time with the fur babies. I have a fenced in backyard in a quiet neighborhood. I have a couple big trees for shade while pets are playing outdoors and a covered back porch for relaxing.

“Mikala was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Remy and treated her like part of the family. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear Remy was happy and comfortable. Mikala was also incredibly flexible and understanding when my drop-off plans changed multiple times, and her communication was excellent from start to finish. She even reached out after I picked Remy up because she found one of Remy’s bowls and offered to ship it back to me. That level of thoughtfulness really meant a lot. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I would absolutely trust Mikala with Remy again. Highly recommend!”

About: Booking with me allows for your dog to get a well rounded experience that will keep them comfortable while also providing fun and healthy experiences for them! I live on a 40 acre farm that has many trails, animals, and senes that keep your dog happy, safe, and busy! I also have studied k9 behavior and know how to provide your dog socialization and stimulation! I am currently a student at a local college where I play basketball! This allows me to be home in between classes and practices unlike somebody with a full time job. I can provide potty brakes every 2-4 hours as well as walks and play time! I have loved animals since I can remember! Making sure they are happy and well cared for is a must! I will treat your pet as my own and I understand your pet is not just an animal but rather a member of your family! Ensuring they are treated as such is important to me. Fresh water, attention, play time, cuddles, and more are very important to me. I also understand you need updates! Pictures and frequent communication between me and you is also important to me!

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and enjoy spoiling them. I have two dogs and a chinchilla. We also have a cat that we introduced to the home about 2 months ago. 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.

About: Walking, bathing, and hanging out with dogs is some of my favorite downtime activities. Growing up with a dog I learned all the necessary skills to watch over a dog. I even volunteered at the humane society in both the dog and cat area for four years! I am currently a teacher so I work from 7-4pm Monday through Friday, but if you need someone to walk your dog at night or house sit for the weekend or even a week night, I am your person! My husband also works from home so if you’re boarding during the week day he is also here to help out if needed. Whatever you need me to do is what I will follow. I will come to your place as my animals do not take well to strangers. But rest assured I will take great care of your animal, in whatever capacity you need. At our home we two cats that do well with other dogs but tend to ignore them, and one dog who LOVES other dogs so no worries there.
