“I can tell that my dog Abby had a great time with Daisy and her family for a long weekend. I appreciated the texts and pictures they sent showing them taking Abby and their dog on walks and how Daisy was available on such short notice.. I would definitely recommend Daisy to anyone looking for someone to watch their dog.”
“Hatsuki took great care of our dog Chloe! She sent frequent updates and pictures about how Chloe was doing. At the end of the visit Hatsuki provided me with an extensive summary about Chloe's stay. I felt completely comfortable leaving Chloe with her and highly recommend her.”
“Nicole took such good care of my boy Sunshine. She went above and beyond to help him spend his first week away from me including helping him with eating and sleeping anxiety. She sent me messages and pics or videos every day to let me know how he was doing. He was clearly having a ton of fun playing with her sweet pups in her lovely and safe back yard and her cozy home. She is a true dog lover and Sunshine came home happy and exhausted! I will definitely contact her again in the future.”
“Amber and her family took awesome care of our pup! She sent us pictures/videos regularly and gave us updates everyday. She’s very easy to communicate with and clearly loves what she does 🐶 🦴”
“It was the first time I was leaving my dog with someone other than family, so I was nervous. Bill and Ashleigh reassured me everything would be ok and they kept in contact with me and sent pictures of our dog. It made me feel at ease knowing that there was someone to take care of him like we would. We would recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter for their dog, and we will definitely be booking with them again.”
“I appreciated that they were focused on getting Piper to eat since I'd relayed that when she gets anxious (like while I'm away) she tends to not want to eat. They sent well-timed pictures that showed the dogs relaxed by themselves or with one of the family. The stay went well but it was a bit confusing with having both ladies message me answers to the same question.”
“Very happy with Summer's stay. Claudia provided updates and lots of pictures. I could tell Summer had plenty of attention, cuddles, and play time. Summer's bag was packed and ready when we arrived to a happy dog.”
“Kyri did an excellent job looking after my dog, Milky. She was very attentive and responsible, and she consistently sent me pictures and videos so I could see how he was doing. It was clear he was comfortable, well cared for, and in good hands. I would definitely recommend her and would trust her again with Milky for future boardings.”
“Alexis was amazing with our girls. She kept us updated on how they were doing, sent photos and even groomed them. She also gave them homemade treats. They loved her too. We look forward to using her services again.”
“First time using rover and I couldn’t imagine picking another dog sitter for my dog Spike who absolutely had a great week stay with Karen. I needed a extra day for him to stay on short notice and it was no problem for her to make the adjustments. She really is good at this and makes your pet feel at home and as pet owner made me feel very comfortable on how she handles her service. Karen has lots of space for pets and also lots of love for them as well. I know my dog can’t wait to go back, I would recommend her to anyone GREAT SERVICE!!!”
“Maggie loved staying with Lisa. She came back home clearly happy and well. Got daily reports and pictures. She was very professional and kind. Definitely will take Maggie back when needed.”
“Angel done a amazing job taking care of our fur baby. Roxy came back looking and feeling wonderful. Additionally, she followed the instructions we asked of her. I would recommend her to all my friends, family and Shipmates. Thank you Angel”
“Tara was wonderful!!! This was my first time using Rover and she was great. Tara communicated well and often and provided updates about my dogs. Thank you so much for taking such great care of my babies!”
“Amber watched our two extra large older pups for us. She went out of her way to make them comfortable, going so far as to rearrange her own living space! She was so kind and sent updates and pics so we didn’t have to worry about how they were adjusting. Highly recommend and we’ll be rebooking ASAP!”
“Our pup, Sokka, absolutely loves Ryan which is helpful since our dog has anxiety around other dogs (so kennel boarding is a very stressful experience). We really appreciate that Ryan also takes Sokka on walks and dog park visits if he's able to do so. We highly recommend Ryan for boarding!”
“Paige was excellent and Sadie seemed to enjoy her stay. I received consistent updates, photos, and responses. I would recommend Paige and will use them as my preferred sitter going forward.”
“Ezgi was AMAZING! She even accommodated an extended stay for my girl because our other dog had an emergency while on vacation... All is well now :) Highly recommended, and will be returning!”
“I highly recommend Jessica! It was obvious she is a ‘dog whisperer’, gentle soul, who will make your dog feel like they are at home! She sent daily photos, videos, updates, gave my dog her monthly & quarterly medication, provided her a comfy crate to sleep in, and a kiddy pool filled with strawberries! And there’s 3 dog friends to bond with! My fur baby had a loving spa experience! Book with Jessica!”
“Smith had such a great time with Kris and Baloo! He was treated like part of their family and so well taken care of. He had so much fun playing and relaxing and generally being spoiled, and I got so many great pictures of their time together. I can’t imagine letting him stay with anybody else!”

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Springfield on Rover is $27.79 per night (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
93% of Springfield sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Springfield landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Springfield home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Springfield.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Springfield sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
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 OH 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.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
