“Connor was amazing with my newly adopted dog, Wendy! I was very nervous leaving her as Wendy is still learning to trust new humans so she is a little anxious in new environments. But Connor understood, gave her space and kept her comfortable during her first doggy day care experience. She had fun socializing with his dog Kygo along with some other dog friends outside in his fully fenced backyard. Connor put me at ease with updates and pictures as well. I will be using Connor again in the future and definitely recommend his services to others!”
“As usual Levi had a great time with Jessica. He was tired and ready for bed when we came home which was perfect since it was late. Jessica was very accommodating to us running behind schedule due to traffic.”
“Ekaterina and her family did such an amazing job with my very shy, reserved labradoodle. He spent the entire day at their home and upon pickup, he was calm, content and happy. I highly recommend Ekaterina and we look forward to using her again!”
About: I have over 5 years of experience dog sitting and caring for pets of all sizes, including both large and small breeds, as well as puppies and senior dogs. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and strive to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I work from home, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I take my dog outside every 1–2 hours and would follow the same routine for your dog. I also go on 1–3 walks daily to keep dogs active, stimulated, and happy. I have a friendly French Bulldog who enjoys having other dogs around to play with. My home is well set up for visiting pets, with a designated indoor play area and two crates available (one medium and one extra-large) if crating is preferred. I also have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time. Dogs are welcome on couches and beds so they can feel relaxed and at home during their stay. I currently work from home and have plenty of down time to play with your pets! I always take my dog out every 1-2 hours and will do the same for your pet. I also go for 1-3 walks a day to make sure your dog is staying active and happy:) I have one friendly French Bulldog that would love a friend to play with! I also have two crates, one extra large and one medium for any crating purposes if you would like. I have a play area where your dog will spend a lot of time playing. I have a fenced-in backyard where your dog can also play. Your dog is allowed on couches and beds so they feel at home and comfortable.
“Champ had the greatest day with Eunice and her family! He ran around the yard, played with her dog and got so many cuddles! I can always tell what kind of day he’s had when I pick him up and he was happy as can be! Plus lots of amazing pics throughout the day. Highly recommend Eunice!”
“Armani had a great time during his sit as he came back energetic and super playful! They also provided constant updates which I absolutely loved. They definitely took care of my puppy, so I highly recommend!”
“Gio was very accommodating with a last-minute daycare request, which I really appreciated. He was punctual with pickup and drop-off, shared regular updates and photos throughout the day, and ensured walks and meals were given on time. My pup came home happy. While Walnut and my pup didn’t quite connect this time, I’m hopeful they’ll build a friendship in the future. Overall, a reliable and positive experience.”
“Andria is a wonderful pet sitter! We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her and truly appreciated all the updates she shared during his stay. Her fenced backyard is perfect for dogs to safely explore and enjoy their time. We will absolutely be using her services again—highly recommend!”
“A wonderful experience! Communication was excellent (including photos and videos). Doug has created a calm, well thought out space that can accommodate multiple dogs - including ways to give dogs their own space if needed. Thank you!”
“This was Oreo’s second day here and it was just as amazing as the first. He is almost 12, very particular about people, and not the easiest dog to win over — so the fact that he was excited to go back says everything. As chaotic as our day was, it was such a huge relief knowing he was happy, comfortable, and in such good hands. Jackie’s flexibility, kindness, and obvious love for dogs really stood out. It is not easy to find someone you fully trust with your dog, especially one with a picky personality, but this truly feels like a safe, loving, and comfortable home for him. We are so grateful to have found Jackie and will absolutely continue to book again (already have) 😉”
“Sulay was a pleasure to deal with, and Shadow came home happy and relaxed. He was comfortable with her immediately - and got along great with her sweet dog. We appreciate her caring attentiveness. I would definitely recommend her highly, and will be sure to be a repeat customer!”
“Excellent and caring provider. She takes the time to speak to you about your pet’s needs as well as spending the time to learn and experience your pet. She is extremely knowledgeable about all types and ages of dogs and their needs. She is very flexible with scheduling. She provided constant feedback throughout via texts, pictures and videos. My puppy had a wonderful experience with Jessica and her crew!”

I have a spacious fenced in yard where your pups can run around and play in. It’s my goal to make your dog feel as loved and safe as they do at home.
About: My name is Roma :) you might recognize me since I’ve probably waved at your dog while exploring some trees in a nearby park! Or admired your puppy on morris ave while on a walk! I’m a deep lover of animals, a responsible house sitter and former volunteer EMT, as well as a very active walker who can match the pace of the fastest dogs but loves to stop and sniff the flowers as much as any slower paced pet :) I had the privilege of watching many pets with various needs and levels of care while attending Emerson College in Boston:) I am now back home in NJ and eager to meet lots of new furry friends :) I have experience with senior pet care and special need pet care I am extremely patient, loving, and thoughtful with my animal care and can adapt to any needs of yours and your pet. I am happy to go above and beyond for you and your pets needs and I will take pride in treating your animal with the utmost respect! I would love the opportunity to care for your pet and even drop off any new baking experiments I get up to while at home :) My schedule is wide open and available to accommodate to pet care situations as I work part time! I have lots of longer stretches of time available to spend with a pet in need of social care or play time :) I would be truly honored to care for, walk, or house any pet and would treat the job with utmost respect not only towards you as a client but because of a deep respect I carry for animals! I am a respectful, professional, recent college graduate who would be deeply fulfilled by caring for animals while in Boston for the summer!
About: I’ve owned every kind of pet since I was 10 years old. I am very reliable when it comes to animals because I treat them like their my own children. I’m currently working on a hybrid schedule, where I work from home two days out of the week. I can schedule my work from home days based off your pets needs and when I do report to the office, I am available after 5:00pm. I have a very large open courtyard in front of my apartment where your fur baby can play and run around. I can easily crate your dog if needed

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Springfield on Rover is $54.95 per day (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care 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 Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 11,164 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Springfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Springfield commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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 NJ ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 .
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 dog, 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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 11,164 sitters in Springfield, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
