“We’re very happy with the care Thor received! Jeremy did a great job looking after him—very attentive, responsible, and caring. He was also an excellent communicator, keeping us updated throughout his time with him. Thor seemed happy and well taken care of the whole time. Highly recommend!”

“Brooke is responsive and nice! She did a great job taking care of our girl, Sadie Mae. my only feedback to her would be to send more updates with pictures too! 5 star service besides that, thanks Brooke.”

“Kaitlyn did a wonderful job house sitting and looking after our 3 animals while we were away for a week!! She provided daily updates and the best photos of all the pets. We will definitely be booking with her again!”

“We were gone for a week and our pets were well taken care of. Mary would visit once a week for a few weeks before we left to let the dogs get used to her. This helped tremendously! She sent daily updates and pics. We will definitely use her again when we go away. It removes a giant burden knowing our pets are well cared for while we’re gone.”

“We had the BEST experience with Loren watching our dogs! She watched our two golden retrievers and even brought her own golden over during the day so they could all play together. Our boys loved it! She kept us updated, took great care of everyone, and treated our house like it was her own. She sent lots of cute pictures too. Highly recommend Loren and will definitely use her again in the future🤩”

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and currently care for a GSP and German Shepherd of my own. I understand that every dog is unique and treat every pet like family, providing plenty of exercise, attention, and love. I’m also very active and love being outdoors, so your pup can expect plenty of exercise, playtime, and engagement. From energetic dogs who love to explore to senior dogs who prefer a slower pace, I’m comfortable adapting to whatever makes your pet happiest and most comfortable.

“My dogs had a great time with Kyle. He was able to take them on multiple walks a day and then be at our house at night, which is important for our spoiled pups. He was clean and tidying up after himself when he left. He sent me updates and some pictures too. We will definitely use him again for future trips.”

“Charley took excellent care of our boys! When we came home, I think they were disappointed to see us instead of her! She treated our home with the utmost respect and we couldn’t ask for anything more! We’ve already booked our next request with her and will absolutely continue using her when our boys need a buddy to hang out with.”

Thank you so much for taking great care of our pets and of our home!! 10/10 recommend for all your pet care needs.”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up on a farm caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, and many other animals, and I quickly learned that every pet has their own unique personality and needs. These days, I often help watch friends’ dogs when they go out of town, and I love spending time with my family’s dog, Stella. As a pet sitter, I’m dependable, responsible, and genuinely enjoy being around animals. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles (I love the cuddles too!), or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were part of my own family. As a college student who works part-time, I have a fairly flexible schedule and can often accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits or stays. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, so I make it a priority to follow their routine and provide plenty of lovin' and attention. Whether that means playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply being a companion while they nap! Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and favorite way of doing things, and I know how important it is to follow the routine that you, as their owner, have established for them. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or taking them on walks, I'll send daily photos and updates so you can stay connected while you're away. I'll follow your pet's routine closely and make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel comfortable, relaxed, and confident throughout the entire experience.
“Nicole was great watching my dogs while out of town! She kept me updated with photos and updates throughout her stay and clarified any questions she had. When I returned, the dogs were both happy and content.”

About: I have experience in pet sitting with my grandmother's dogs and I have been known to be very reliable! I would love to meet you and show that I am a perfect fit for your dog sitting/walking needs! I work a part-time job, but I have plenty of free time in the evenings to take care of your pets while you are out! I do not provide a sitting service at my home, but I know when taking care of your dogs at your home, I will respect the space, listen to directions carefully, and leave your space like I was never there.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Willow Springs
Micah was fantastic!! Murphy and Oliver were well cared for while we were gone. Knowing they were in such good hands allowed us to truly enjoy our time away without worrying. We came home to happy pets and a clean house. We will absolutely book Micah again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter! 5 STAR⭐️

Dogs were happy to see Brianna on initial visit, and extremely happy on her last visit to drop off the key, so it's a sign that things went well in between. Communication was clear and prompt before, during, and after. It's clear that Brianna cares for pets, and she handled her duties without being disruptive to the house. I'd book Brianna again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Willow Springs
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Willow Springs on Rover is $33.17 per night (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of June 2026, there are 2,206 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Willow Springs. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Willow Springs walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Willow Springs maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Willow Springs choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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 pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters 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 sitter.

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.
