“They were great, sent constant updates when asked and he had a great time we was sad to come home. They have a good group of dogs that helped correct some of his behaviors which was a big bonus. Great people and great sitting!”
“Denise was so patient with our anxious little dog and her updates were so fun and cute. We felt great knowing Charlie was spoiled while we spent a night away.”
“Destiny was flexible and accommodating to my schedule. I liked the perodic update photos of Snowball eating,relaxing,going on walks, and playing with her dog Max. Her home is very dog friendly and I would definitely rebook.”
“Sarah and Anthony were the perfect sitters for our little dog. They also have a big dog and small dog to keep her company. Their house is very dog friendly as are they, thank you so much for taking such good care of her and sending pictures. This experience could not have been better!”
“Ruthie took great care of our little pup! She checked in frequently and sent us lots of pictures so we knew he was having a good time. She also took him on walks each day and gave him lots of snuggles. It's always a bit of a worry leaving your pup at a new place, but it felt like we had dropped him off with a family member and we'll definitely use her services again!”
“Outstanding! We loved how Claire gave us daily updates and sent pictures of our pup's activities and walks. We felt very comfortable and happy with the support and TLC that Claire gave to our pup during his stay with her.”
“Rocko had an absolute blast with Katelyn and her family. I'm so grateful for her endless patience with Rocko's 1-year-old-puppy energy, for her flexibility with my last-minute trip changes, and for her consistent communication throughout Rocko's stay. Look no further for your pet's care; Katelyn is the best!”
“Molly usually goes to doggy daycare when I go out of town and staff says she seems sad and prefers to be alone. For at least a day after getting her home she won't eat and obsessively follows me around. This time she was happy and excited when I got there. She's eating fine, and has been contently sleeping. I think she enjoyed hanging out with people instead of a bunch of other dogs. I greatly appreciate Cecilia making Molly part of their family while I was out of town. In a few weeks she's staying with her again and it will be nice not to have to worry about whether she's having fun or not.”
“This was our second time booking with Tessa & Tyler, and once again they were amazing! They took great care of our super energetic dog for a week while we were away. I really appreciated the daily updates and photos, it gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was happy and having fun!”
“I’m a repeat client. Keith and Megan’s family are my first choice when I need a dog sitter. They are dog lovers. I have two dogs and they do such a great job making them feel at home. I get multiple picture and videos a day. They have a great fenced in yard as well. I know my dogs are being well taken care of. I highly recommend”
“Dylan was a wonderful dog sitter for Skittles!! We will absolutely use Dylan again. Thank you so much for giving Skittles so much love and sending updates regularly.”
“Julie was exceptional. She had a dedicated room for my cats (3 of them!!) and was flexible and accommodating with my last-minute reservation and subsequent changes. She sent me photos of my kitties when they came out from hiding to play. Her home is set far back from the street and is very quiet. Thank you, Julie!”
“Erin was at the door waiting for our dogs to escort the dogs into her home for drop off. She also brought the dogs to the door at pick up. The dogs came home, happy and healthy and glad to see us. ✅.”
“We had Ying watch our kitty cat, Mr. Ribs, for a week while we were away. He was a fantastic cat sitter. He sent tons of pictures and videos and kept us updated with his sleeping and eating habits. Ying played with Mr. Ribs and kept him entertained. This was comforting for us as the little guy loves people, so leaving him alone or isolated was not an option. Ying was a great companion for the kitty, and we will definitely use him in the future.”
“Emma was so sweet, attentive, and caring towards my two GSD’s over the weekend! I was able to be away with such ease of mind thanks to her. She had phenomenal communication & sent me photos + updates of my pups every time I was missing them. Could not thank Emma enough!!”
About: I've raised 2 puppies who spent their whole life with me. I've adopted 1 rescue and 1 senior. They have had health issues (particularly the rescue and senior) so I'm familiar with some of the early and intermediate signs. We are now at a point in our lives where we want to still spend time with dogs, but we aren't looking for the 24/7 commitment. So we would like to host your furry baby for a night or a weekend and give him all the joy of a good friendship without the kennel experience of a dog hotel. We will be taking on pet care Friday thru Sunday. We may be able to support an emergency during the week, but since we both work full time, that would mean I would need to work from home for a day (which is pawsible with notice). However, it would not be our preferred schedule. We want to spend time with your dogs playing and relaxing - not just leaving them in an unfamiliar space while we are at the office. We are looking for day or overnight services on the weekends when we are free and planning to be home. We would expect you to bring enough food and medication to last their expected stay plus 1 day (in case of unforeseen circumstances). Then leave the rest to us. We will give regular bathroom breaks and play times (no yard), much love and pets and be vigilant about your recommended food/medicine. We do not look forward to creating your animal. So we expect at least one of us (husband or wife) to be home at all times and we expect your dog to be housebroken.
“Joshua and Jennifer are a great team. and went above and beyond our expectations to make Finley feel like part of the family. I loved the pictures they sent with daily reports on how Finley was adjusting. He has never stayed with anyone but family, so I was reluctant. He took to both of them,his new surroundings and their pets immediately,on our initial visit. I highly recommend Joshua and Jennifer to anyone looking for a loving family environment with inteaction and excellent care. Melinda Altman”
“Sabrina is a superstar!! She’s kind, thoughtful, flexible, and respectful! We received pictures everyday along with sweet notes of observations of our dog. Not only did she care for my little love, but she also reassured me with comforting messages and helping this new dog mom out. She is amazing!!”
The median cost per night for dog boarding in Springfield is $48

Jessi was unbelievably kind and accommodating for my special needs dog. Even though I told her not to bother sending pictures because we would be out of cell range - when we got service back I was welcomed with a bunch of happy pictures! Nova didn’t want to leave, which is seats a great sign!
Alexia was very flexible and easy to work with throughout the weekend. The meet and greet with Coy and her dog went great and gave me the opportunity to get to know Alexia and share more about Coy and his routines. The pictures of the hike she took Coy on were greatly appreciated, as were the text updates. My wife and I will definitely keep Alexia in mind the next time we are in Eugene.
This was my first time leaving my dog with a non-family member and was a bit nervous, but Cassandra did an amazing job and truly made me feel like my dog was in good hands! She sent me lots of photos and videos of him which I enjoyed very much. She took him on walks, played a lot, and overall took great care of Frankie. I would definitely rebook with Cassandra again if I ever need more dog boarding/sitting!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Springfield on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Boarding 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 267 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Springfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
97% 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 OR 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.
