“Russ and Janet are great. Sophie was in 7th Heaven with them. Walked and played with and cuddled. I didn’t have to worry about a thing. Having just moved to the area, we’re thrilled to now have a go-to sitter for our pooch.”
“Saktah did a great job taking care of my elderly and rather unfriendly kitty, Koshka, for two weeks while I was vacationing. She was very professional, organized, and caring, kept me updated on how my kitty was adjusting, and showed genuine affection and concern for her. She's driven to get things right and wants your pet to be as comfortable as they can be while you're gone. So if you (like me) have a pet that needs extra love and care, and you'd like to relax during your vacation knowing they're in good hands, go with Saktah. She's got you covered.”
“Sarah was amazing! From the beginning, she was very responsive to all of our questions about the booking. Our dog tends to be shy and can sometimes be aggressive with other dogs, but Sarah made it work, and our dog got along with hers right away. She sent us daily updates with photos and videos, which gave us great peace of mind. Our dog was very happy during her stay! We will definitely book with Sarah again and highly recommend her as a dog sitter.”
“Megan was communicative, friendly and shared photos of my girl while I was away. She enabled my dog to get acclimated before introducing her pets which was great for my timid older girl. My pup was in a great mood when I picked her up. Highly recommend.”
“Brittany was great. She kept us up to date with pictures and videos. Our dog seems very happy with her and was perfectly fine when we picked her up. We would use Brittany again without hesitation.”
“Austin has excellent communication, very flexible with scheduling. Immediately setup a time prior to the appointment to have a meet and greet. Walter had an absolute fabulous time with Austin! Kept us up to date with how things were going, with videos, pictures, and messaging. Highly recommended Austin! 10/10 will book again!”
“Biscuit thoroughly enjoyed his visit with Shanagay. She sent many pictures, videos, and updates to let us see how much fun he was having. Biscuit romped and played with Shanagay's little dog Cash and the pics were adorable! We'll definitely call on Shanagay's dog sitting services for Biscuit again and again! Thanks so much for doing such a great job.”
About: I have been surrounded by dogs my entire life and currently share my home with an adorable, friendly Chihuahua. This lifelong experience allows me to deeply understand canine behavior, accurately read their body language, and anticipate their needs to ensure total safety at all times.What sets me apart is that your dog will not just be watched—they will truly become part of our family. My Chihuahua is very social and provides wonderful, gentle companionship. For safety and harmony in my home, I specialize in hosting puppies, small dogs, and medium-sized dogs only. I strictly follow your pet's routine and send daily photo updates for your peace of mind! I work from home full-time, which means your dog will have constant supervision and companionship throughout the day. My daily routine revolves around pet care. I take my Chihuahua out for regular potty breaks and playtime in my backyard, as well as fun walks around our quiet neighborhood. Because I am always here, I can easily adapt to your puppy or dog's specific feeding schedule, medication needs, and behavioral routines without any disruption. Safety is my absolute priority. Since I work from home full-time, guest dogs are under my constant supervision. My home is entirely dog-proofed, with no accessible hazards, toxic plants, or small objects. Outside, playtime takes place safely in my secure backyard under a watchful eye.To build trust and maintain harmony, I always introduce new dogs to my friendly Chihuahua slowly on neutral ground. I strictly follow your specific instructions regarding feeding, crate training, and routines. I also keep my front door securely locked and always use a leash during neighborhood walks to prevent any escapes. You will receive daily photo updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and loved.
About: Calm, quiet environment with a sitter who craves doggy time. My 12 year old black lab recently lost her fight with cancer. Not ready to bring home a new dog, but would love to care for your precious fur babies while you are away. I offer patience and attention to your canine's needs. I'm a human nurse but also experienced with dogs special needs such as insulin administration. I work Monday-Friday, Home on weekends. No young children. Available for walks, dog Parks (dog park with your approval), or hanging out in the yard secured on a 50 foot lead. Dogs are not left outside unattended. You're welcome to bring your pets favorite toy for us to use during their stay. Will try to keep them on your schedule for easy transition from home to sitter. I speak to animals as of they can respond. Days are better with happy pets! Friday drop-off at 5:30 pm. Sunday pick-up by 8:00pm. I have a large yard and a spacious house. Spend weekend around the house doing small projects, crafting or cleaning. It's a quiet, stress free household with a very flexible schedule. While I miss my own pet I'm looking to offer a love-centered environment similar to children visiting their favorite Aunties house.
“I booked Rachel last minute fully expecting for her to not respond or say she was available and she responded within minutes for my last second request. She and her family took excellent care of Hank and sent me several pictures and updates through out. 10/10. Very happy to have found someone trust worthy i can leave my dog with and have no worries without feeling like i am burdening friends or family.”

“Outstanding sitter! Our young chocolate lab played for hours on end and came home nice and tired. Her setup is ideal with a fenced in yard and her dog Oakley was a great companion while we were gone. 10/10 would recommend and will be stopping by again!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12! I love animals like my own children, im super loving and love to give them love and cuddles! I currently do work part time in retail! So I do have time to also care for animals and give them proper love and care. I follow instructions based on any of the animals needs and with my own animals I care for her and give her all the proper oils and things needed for her fur etc.
“James took amazing care of our Bella. He sent pictures of their daily walks and playtimes with his dog and other pups. She looked happy and “right at home” while we enjoyed our vacation.”
“Reichel was the best, she took care of my Leo while me and my boyfriend went away. She kept us informed and provided great care for our puppy. He even learned how to go down the steps, something that he was scared of prior to his stay at Reichel's. He also made good friends with her dog as well. I am so glad we were able to have her take care of Leo while we were gone. Thank you again Reichel”

Aishea was wonderful with my dogs! They had never been properly socialized around other dogs and she was able to get them to join the pack and have fun! One of my dogs can go on a hunger strike when I leave but he ate by days 2 with her. She sent photos and updates during the week they were with her and took them on walks. Her house is set up perfectly with multiple rooms for the dogs to occupy (inside!) and a large fenced in backyard for running, lounging and playing. I was very grateful that she took such good care of them.
Six out of five stars! We went away with zero worries of our fur babies in the care of Saktah! She genuinely enjoyed and loved on our babies. Saktah was incredibly communicative and prompt in her responses. She sent us frequent updates (which we loved and were very appreciative and thankful for)! Thank you so much, Saktah!
Joseirys M. was absolutely amazing with our dog Django. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Django is a rescue and can be pretty anxious and fearful around new people, so we’re always very careful about who we leave him with. From the moment he was with Joseirys, it was clear she has a natural understanding of dogs and how to make them feel safe. She was incredibly patient, gentle, and attentive, and Django quickly became comfortable in a way that honestly surprised us. What really stood out was how well she adapted—not just to Django’s needs, but to our schedule as well while we were in LA. She was communicative, reliable, and went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Django was in such good hands. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares and treats your pet like their own, I highly recommend Joseirys. We will definitely be booking with her again.
Angie took care of my dog Pancho for three days and I’m very grateful for the care she gave him. She maintained great communication the entire time and regularly sent me photos, which helped me feel at ease while I was out of town. During his stay, Pancho had a health-related accident that had nothing to do with Angie’s care, and she informed me right away and handled the situation very responsibly. She was attentive, honest, and very caring with him. I also asked if I could pick Pancho up early in the morning and she had no problem accommodating that. I truly appreciate how she communicated with me and the care she gave to Pancho.
Anna and her husband took great care of our dog, Oakley, for a weekend! I was very nervous leaving our dog with someone we didn’t know, but from the beginning Anna was warm and friendly and helped us feel at ease. She was accommodating of Oakley’s reactivity and sent us updates throughout the weekend. If we ever need to find someone to watch Oakley again, we will definitely consider Anna in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Boarding in Springfield on Rover is $42.18 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

There are 641 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Springfield. About 90% of Springfield sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
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.
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 MA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
