“I had such a great experience with Juliana and couldn’t recommend her more highly. Leaving my dog while traveling is never easy, but she made the entire process feel smooth and stress-free from the start. She was incredibly attentive, communicative, and clearly cared deeply about my dog’s well-being. I received regular updates, photos, and little notes that made me feel connected even while I was away.”
“Alexandra and family are always wonderful to my baby boy! But this time they go above and beyond! We left for a week. And unfortunately, he ran out of food. Alexandra and family cooked him homemade food, like I did with him! Just exceptional!!!”
“What a great guy! We couldn’t be any happier with the wonderful care given to our fur baby. David is kind and understanding with his animals. We are lucky to have found him!”
“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.”
“Bryce was great with Alfie! It took Alfie some time to settle in which made me a bit nervous but Bryce ensured me that he had things under control and Alfie would be okay. He was even patient with me because I was worried! Bryce was also very accommodating when I had the dates incorrect due to the time zone. He quickly responded and modified the date. He was great! Thank you Bryce!”

We would definitely drop off Arthur again. It was nice knowing Arthur was in good hands during our vacation :)”
“Juliana did an awesome job! She was the first sitter for our puppy and we could not be happier with how things went. We will definitely work with her again. She kept us up to date on her activities and kept our little one on schedule and busy. 💕”

“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.”
“Carly is very responsive with all messages. My regular sitter got sick and I needed someone urgently. Carly was clutch. I am planning on dropping Rocky off again at her place in couple of days.”
“Jackie was just wonderful with our four year old Toller. She was responsive, flexible, and very good with dogs. Upon first meeting, our Toller clearly felt comfortable with Jackie. We used her services for boarding, but would highly recommend her for walks or house sitting as well. Our children loved getting pictures and videos throughout her stay. Would use again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Springfield
Juliana is THE BOMB.COM!! From the moment I first met her I just knew it was going to be the start of something special for both myself and more importantly for my pups. Bear and Bailee had a fantastic time at their meet and greet at Juliana’s home (which is amazing) and then their stay was the best. Juliana sent me updates and kept me informed of anything that came up. My pups were comfy and cozy and super well cared for. We’ve already booked subsequent stays throughout the summer Thank you Juliana for being such a kind person with a genuine soul and a love for animals.
I used Shelby and Robbie for a last minute trip and was so thankful they were able to take My dog Miles. From beginning to end they made it so easy to communicate and followed up on how miles was doing without me having to ask. Miles had a great time, I would definitely use them again!
Saya and David were amazing! I had to book a sitter at the last minute, and they made the whole experience stress-free. I have two dogs with very different needs—one is high-energy, and the other is older and has a lot of anxiety—and they did a great job caring for both of them. They were very responsive, sent lots of great photos and updates, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I felt very comfortable leaving my dogs with them and knew they were in good hands. I would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them!
Barbara was such an amazing host to our puppy Astra! She sent over plenty of pictures and a wonderful video of our pup playing with her dogs. Astra had a great time and came home absolutely exhausted which is a rare sight. Looking forward to booking with her again!
Jennifer is the best dog sitter, we love bringing my dog Nico with her. I know he is going to be cared for when we drop him off and she provides excellent communication and picture updates. Nico is happy to see her always - she is a gem among dog sitters we are so greatful to have found her!
We couldn't be happier with Rachel! She took amazing care of our dog, Stella, for a weekend stay. We received several updates and adorable photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. Stella tends to have separation anxiety but immediately settled in with Rachel and came home calm, happy, healthy, and tired from all the playtime. We'll definitely book again!
Jessica was absolutely amazing with Louie! She was kind, sweet, patient, and took great care of him throughout his stay. She also allowed us to do a meet and greet beforehand, which made us feel very comfortable leaving Louie in her care. What stood out most was how compassionate and understanding she was when we received unfortunate news during our trip. She truly went above and beyond during a very difficult time, and we appreciated her kindness so much. We would absolutely recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter, and we would gladly book with her again!

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Springfield on Rover is $48.15 per night (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,396 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.
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 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.
