Dog Boarding East Springfield

“Sandra took great care of my Raven. She sent pictures and had great communication. Raven had a great time in her home. I love that she takes just one dog at a time and has a great yard. She treated Raven as her own. Would definitely book again!”

About: Raised on a farm and a dog mom for 17 years, I’ve had animals at the center of my life since childhood. Caring for animals of all kinds is truly in my roots. I spent 13 years as a devoted dog mom to my late dachshund, Boston, and I now have a big, friendly rescue who has been by my side for 4 years. She’s a beautiful mix of Blue Tick Coonhound, American Foxhound, Lab, Bully, German Shepherd, and who knows what else, or as I like to call her, my Supermutt 🩷 Over the years, I’ve rescued dogs, cats, and other animals off the streets, and I’m constantly learning about animal health, behavior, and care so I’m prepared for any pet friend who comes into my home. Special skills: •Senior care: I’ve cared for two dogs into their senior years: my dachshund, Boston, and our family’s extra-large bully breed. I’m comfortable with older dogs, including slower walks, extra comfort, and medication schedules. I’m also comfortable administering injections if needed. •Anxious dogs and puppies: Boston was a very anxious pup, so I know how to help nervous dogs feel safe. I also have experience with puppies. •Training: I taught both of my dogs their basic commands, I’m currently taking a dog training course, and I plan to complete a pet CPR certification. •Dog-friendly home: My own dog is playful, loves to chill, and happily goes along with whatever her fur friends want. Availability: I’m available for drop-ins and walks in the evenings, and I can board low-maintenance dogs during the week since I work full time in an office Monday through Friday but I do take my own dog out in the mornings and again midday. My calendar on Rover will show is open Friday through Sunday and on holidays, but if you’re interested in weekday boarding, I’m happy to discuss it further. Friends, family, and neighbors have always turned to me when they need someone they can truly trust with their pets. I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own, with patience, attention, and genuine love. I’m present and engaged during my time at home, so your pet won’t just be waiting around they’ll be played with, walked, and genuinely cared for. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I have a partially fenced yard and a secure ground-anchored long lead for supervised outdoor time, so dogs can enjoy fresh air safely. I also live right next to a large park with trails, making it easy to get in enriching walks and outdoor adventures. My own dog Khaleesi is friendly and social with other dogs, so boarded pets will have a welcoming companion. I treat every animal in my care with the same love and attention I give my own, your pet will feel right at home.

“Daniel was great with the dogs, kept me informed the whole time with pictures, and is a very nice person in general. Will be boarding with him again !!”

“Carmela was super nice with my elder dog. My chihuahua suffered violence from a teenager and now his behavior is not the best. Carmela was so comprehensive and knew how to manage him to keep him feel safe in her home. I am so thankful that she received my baby in her home for the time I had to travel.”

Virginia G.

“From the moment we met Caitlin and her family, we knew this was a perfect match for our Gracie. We could tell from the pictures and updates that she felt right at home and got plenty of attention, snuggles, and love. The kids were great with Gracie and you could tell the feeling was mutual. We will definitely book with Caitlin again!”

“Elizabeth watched my two dogs for the first time for two nights. My two seven year old boys are higher energy requiring more attention than many other dogs. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She is incredibly sweet, attentive, and deeply responsible. Both my dog felt right at home from early on and absolutely enjoyed the walks and playtime. She sent me regular updates with pictures allowing total peace of mind. Perhaps more importantly, my two knuckleheads found a new best friend and I found a sitter that will definitely be used again for future needs.”

“Sarah took great care of our puppy. She sent a few pictures and updates and everything went very smoothly. We will definitely be using her again!”

Jordan K.

“Lissette took amazing care of my two puppies I know an 11 month old and 3 month old German shepherd are a lot to handle but she did an amazing job! Both puppies did not want to leave her house. I will definitely be booking with Lissette again anytime o travel for work!”

Nina R.

“We typically leave our 5 year old cavachon, Tillie, with family members but were unable to do so this time. We used the Rover app and found Allison. Thank goodness because she was absolutely wonderful and put our minds at ease! Allison sent at least one picture a day and kept us well-informed on how Tillie was doing. We felt very comfortable leaving Tillie at Allison’s home and will definitely be calling on her again!”

Carol C.

“Thank you for watching Teddy.”

“Really wonderful sitter, made me comfortable leaving my pup there and sent pictures throughout the day. Was really flexible with drop off / pick up time - really appreciated it!”

Alyssa E.

“Our dog had a wonderful stay with Jenny. Super easy. Everyone had fun. Definitely recommend.”

Katie B.

“Adam was fantastic! Quick and clear communication from the initial message all the way to pick up. Adam was very friendly and has an immaculate house, so I felt very comfortable leaving my dog for the long weekend. His dog Rocky was friendly as well and was a great playmate for my dog Max. I will definitely be booking with Adam again!”

Alexander M.

“Chris is the perfect dog sitting. She was caring and intuitive to Charlotte’s needs. Charlotte’s care was like a doggie vacation. She had walks, playtime and a new friend to play with. Charlotte was made to feel comfortable within Chris’ home. Also, I enjoyed glimpses of her visit via photos/ videos. It was a great experience. Thank you, Chris”

Deborah A.

“Sandra was wonderful! Very flexible and accommodating, provided updates and made our pup feel right at home. Highly recommend her and would absolutely book her again!”

Shellane S.

“Paul took excellent care of my dog Pierre while I was away for 4 days. Pierre became a member of the family, eating, sleeping, hiking, playing and just hanging out. I was very reassured to see how excited & happy Pierre became when Paul arrived to pick him up. Pierre was a shelter dog, and has struggled with anxiety, so this was momentous! I will certainly use Paul again through Rover for any other services I need!”

Susan C.

“Kat was so flexible and accommodating for a last minute new booking. super communicative and lovely to work with. She has a lot of experience with dogs with mobility concerns.I know my dog had a great time hanging out with her — I would truly recommend her dog sitting services to anyone who needs it.”

“Alissa was amazing with our dog! Super reliable, kind, and kept us updated the whole time. Our dog was so well taken care of and happy when we got home. We’d definitely book with her again!”
