“I have used Rover for several years and have had some really good providers. However Juliana, Cooper, and Betty Boop are amazing and my Pup felt right at home. I can honestly say I have found Bubblez new home away from home. I can now travel and not get anxiety leaving my Fur baby. Juliana is warm, caring and loved my Pup as if she were her own. Bubblez did not come home disheveled which made me feel much better. I highly recommend Juliana! ❤️”
“Alex and her family were very welcoming. I like that they did a meet and greet just to ensure that my dog would be a good fit for them to take care of. My dog was very excited to be with them and they took great care of him. I received updates and pictures during his stay. I am grateful to them to be able to enjoy my vacation and know that my precious Goose was in great hands. I am appreciative and grateful for such wonderful service.”
“Patty was extremely thoughtful and sweet to my senior dog for a week stay. I didn't have to worry at all, and he came back nice and tired and happy. He even made a doggie friend during his stay! Plus, she sent me some really great photos of him.”
“Donte was very kind and helped me out with a last minute weekend booking. He took on my dog and accommodated her easily. I had to ask for pictures and videos a few times but overall worked out great!”
“Our pup is always calm and happy after staying with David. He really offers an amazing space for us to board our VERY anxious dog when we travel. I am so thankful for him.”
“Carismeldi and Pablo always take great care of our pup! We receive regular updates and pictures- our doggy always has a huge smile when she’s with them! Highly recommend Carismeldi and Pablo!”
“Zenith cared for my dog from February 19–22, and I am so grateful for her. From the start, her communication was thoughtful and consistent. She sent sweet updates, photos, and videos that truly put my heart at ease. It was clear she treated him with genuine love and care, just like I would. I never once worried while I was away. I would happily book with her again and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone special to care for their pup.”
“I couldn't have made a better choice than Khaing to watch my cats. I got updates with photos every day (as requested) and could tell the entire time how much she put into caring for them. Prompt responses whenever needed. 5 Stars is not enough! Thank you Khaing!”
“Mitchell and his husband were very welcoming from the start I met them. They went above and beyond to take care of Baldur’s needs. They were flexible and attentive of Baldur’s needs. I’m happy that I chose them to be my sitter. I was concerned while being away his stimulation needs wouldn’t be met, but I was happy to see from the picture update he was smiling and having a great time. The backyard was something my dog loved as he missed this since we moved to the city. Overall I recommend Mitchell’s service to anyone that needs a trustworthy service.”
“Diana was amazing with our pups. It was such a last minute need when we found out my mom had Covid and couldn’t watch our 2 dogs for Memorial Day weekend. Diana was right there. She took them in, cared for them, took pictures and asked essential questions. The pups were happy and healthy when picked up and clearly had a great weekend. We are so grateful for her and would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“A last minute change to a planned trip made us look for a reasonable alternative to boarding which I won’t ever do again. Brian was proactive and professional in helping us solve our problem. He met our dog right away to make sure it was a good fit. Communication was plentiful (with pics) and we felt good knowing our dog was with someone who cared. We will use him again for sure.”
“Tamikia was great! She sent regular pictures and video updates and let me know how Hazel was doing the whole time. It was a big load off my mind knowing my pup was well taken care of. Book Tamikia today!”
“Sarah was amazing! She was incredibly accommodating with our last minute booking and made the whole experience so easy. Our boy had the best time playing with her dog, Kobe! Sarah kept us updated throughout his stay and sent lots of pictures, which we really appreciated. He came home happy, well cared for, and completely worn out from all the playing and excitement! We would absolutely recommend Sarah and would happily book with her again.”
“Christine was awesome. My dog absolutely enjoyed her stay. I will be using Christine again to watch my fur baby. She responds quickly, she's kind, and very attentive.”
“This was my pup's second time staying with Trey and her second time having a safe and exciting place to stay while I was away. Tilly had so much fun playing with Trey's dogs and I could see from the updates that she was getting out and about and working off all her energy. Already have a time booked for later this summer!”
“Next to staying home, boarding with Chrissy is the next best thing. My 14 year old dachshund (Milo) stayed with her for a week and loved it! I received daily pictures and videos. Milo received daily treats and cuddles.”
“Leah was an amazing sitter! She was extremely patient with my weird dog’s quirks and was excellent at sending photos and updates. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again.”
“My 2 doodles stayed with Rhea for 3 nights and we could not have been happier with how well our dogs were cared for. She sent several updates and photos and was so kind and welcoming. Rhea and her husband and their doodle Arlo are the best!!! Have already rebooked for June vacations.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Springfield
Appa had a great time at Cartier's house. She was very responsive and made sure to give Appa lots of love. Our dog is normally reserved / apprehensive with people he doesn't know, but they became fast friends. Appa uses an inhaler and Cartier was very helpful in making sure he got his medicine during his stay. When he came home, he was relaxed and his normal self, which is a testament to how welcoming Cartier was.
Sarah was amazing! She was incredibly accommodating with our last minute booking and made the whole experience so easy. Our boy had the best time playing with her dog, Kobe! Sarah kept us updated throughout his stay and sent lots of pictures, which we really appreciated. He came home happy, well cared for, and completely worn out from all the playing and excitement! We would absolutely recommend Sarah and would happily book with her again.
Juliana took great care of our Reese while we went to the beach! She sent us updates and pictures throughout the week. Her home was clean and orderly. The great care Reese received was evident when we picked her- she was happy, and seemed so relaxed and content. We would absolutely recommend Juliana, and hope she’s able to take care of our girl on our next vacation!
Robbie and Shelby were very responsive and communicative. They were responsive to the information provided about our pets, especially with Baxter who is an anxious boy who just needs a little extra love to settle in. They sent great updates with videos and pictures and kept me posted on how everyone was doing.
Chrissy is amazing to work with. I love her home away from home approach. She gathered information and details about Plum's daily routine. Her updates and feedback about Plum were fun and professional. Plum had a fantastic day. I never had to request an update or status. Chrissy sent timely updates. Chrissy is genuinely caring. We are so grateful to have found her.
Thank you for taking such great care of our dog while we were on vacation! Rachel and her husband are wonderful sitters! Without fail, we received pictures and/or videos daily, letting us know that Winston was doing well and having a good time. We look forward to continuing the relationship with Rachel and her husband in the future.
I can’t recommend Alexandra enough! She has been taking care of my dog, Milo, for quite some time now, and I always have complete peace of mind knowing he’s in her care. She and family truly treat Milo like he’s their own. He’s always so well cared for, loved, and honestly spoiled in the best way possible. It’s clear that she genuinely cares about the animals she watches, and it shows in everything she does. She’s reliable, kind, attentive, and always keeps me updated, which means so much. Milo is always happy to see her, and that says it all. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, she’s the one. I wholeheartedly recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Springfield on Rover is $48.33 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 3,302 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.
94% 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 PA 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.
