“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! ❤️”
“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.”
“Michell did a wonderful job of taking care of my dog. He was incredibly communicative from the start, provided updates every day, had other dogs for my dog to interact with, and my dog came back relaxed. I will definitely be reaching out again!”
“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.”
“Christopher is the best!!! I always feel so great whenever Tofu stays with Christopher. He sends so many great pictures of their time together. Tofu always looks so happy and cozy. He takes such great care of her. I’m so happy to have someone I can rely on to take care of her!”
“As per usual I had a wonderful experience with Christine. I keep going back to her for lots of reasons. She always takes excellent care of my dog Kash, making sure he felt comfortable, safe, and loved while I was away. She’s reliable, responsible, and keeps me updated (with lots of pictures and moments from his day) which gave me great peace of mind! I like the fact that she is home with him throughout the day because he has separation anxiety and doesn’t like being alone. I really appreciated the care and attention she provided. I know Kash was in great hands. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter and would happily book her them again!”
“Luna had a great time on her overnight stay. She got playtime inside and out and plenty of attention. Emily and Christine really love dogs, and treated her so well!”
“Bobby always does such an amazing job watching our cockapoo Miley. He communicates well and Miley always seems very happy when she comes home. We’ve booked Bobby 5+ times now and will definitely be back! Thanks for taking such great care of our girl!”
“Rhea is truly an exceptional sitter. This was the first time I had to board my 10-year old labradoodle, and she made both my dog and me very comfortable and happy while I was away. Rhea clearly has a talent when it comes to caring for dogs and communicating with the owner. She is loving, responsible, reliable and a great communicator. I hope that she will be able to take care of my dog again the next time I need her help. I can't imagine a better place for my dog.”
“Was thrilled to have Stephanie watch Clowe! I always got updates on how she was doing, and plenty of pictures! Next time I need somebody to watch my pup, Stephanie will be the first person I’m calling. Thanks!!!”
“Another awesome visit with Cartier! She treats my pup like gold and sends the best pictures and updates while I’m away. Cartier is always so accommodating with my travel schedule and I’m so grateful! We will continue to book with Cartier and look forward to our next visit!”
“Exactly what we were hoping for our two dogs. Rebecca was great at keeping us updated and sending pictures of them. The dogs looked like they had a blast during their stay and we would definitely have Rebecca watch our dogs again and recommend her to others.”
“Tim was great! Friendly demeanor and lives in a wonderful location with quick access to the SRT; our pup was very happy. He came home clean, loved, and well taken care of. We will absolutely reach out to Tim in the future!”
“Chazz is amazing! My 2 dogs are not the easiest to deal but he was able to calm them down 5 mins after meeting them. I appreciate him sending me updates without us asking for it. Shoyu and Maki just got back from their vacation with him and seemed to have the best time. They are now having the best nap too lol This was our first time using this platform and I also based my booking from the previous reviews about him. You can tell that he is in the industry for a while now and is very experienced with different kinds/breeds of dogs. We will be asking him to take care of our babies when we go for future trips. Thanks again, Chazz!”
“Douglas and Henry came back very happy from their stay with Ginger. She took excellent care of them and paid attention to the little nuances each dog needed. I highly recommend her!”
“So happy to have found a wonderful family in the neighborhood to leave our pup with when we can't bring her with! Riley stayed for a long weekend and based on all the photo updates had a great time. Great communication, flexible for meet & greet, drop off/pick up, etc. No hesitation to have Riley stay again in the future. Thank you!”
“Christin was amazing! I was a little worried because my puppy (Kiwi) is still very timid and suspicious of strangers, but Christin was very understanding and confident, that it was clear she's worked with difficult dogs before. She kept us informed of all the progress and we know Kiwi ended up relaxing and having a great time. Totally recommended and would totally rebook. Thank you!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Springfield
This is my first experience with Juliana and she was fantastic! My dog legs takes medication and she was able to follow the instructions very efficiently! She understood he had high anxiety. He was so comfortable staying with her and looks forward to staying with her again in the future! I love my experience with her and look forward to future stays with my fur baby.
Christine was a great caretaker for our deaf 11 year old hound mix over a long weekend. Christine helped Georgia settle in to unfamiliar surroundings. She is warm and comforting and clearly has lots of experience with and loves dogs. We will use her again without hesitation.
Shelby and Robbie were a great place to leave our two dogs for an extended time. One has some serious anxiety towards other dogs and they handled the situation and came up with a plan for her. They let us know how they were doing and we are thankful for them! Would use them again!
We have greatly benefited from having Jennifer S. provide Boarding services for our two Australian Labradoodles. She delivered outstanding care for our furry children, including regular walks and playing fetch with a ball, as she is extremely thorough and meticulous in meeting all of their needs. All of the members of her family create a warm and loving environment in which our pets are always relaxed and thriving. We loved receiving daily photos of our pooches looking happy, resting peacefully, and enjoying time outdoors. Accordingly, we highly and unreservedly recommend Jennifer S. for all your Boarding and Doggy Day Care needs.
Alexandra took great cate of my senior dog Momo for 9 nights. Alexandra and her family are so lovely and had a great home and yard for my dog to enjoy. I appreciated Alexandra’s updates and photos, and I felt at ease during my whole trip. Highly recommend and will definitely be returning! Thanks Alexandra!
Scott was wonderful and my dog had the best time with him and his posse of dogs! The other dogs he was watching at the time were very friendly and Scott did a great job introducing them and making sure they were comfortable together. He sent lots of pics during the stay and I know my dog had unbelievable attention, exercise and love! We can’t wait to go away again so we can send Hoagie to his new favorite place!
I had no doubt upon our first meeting that Dakota would have a very comfortable loving stay with Chrissy. She sent a ton of pictures and videos along the way, which was super nice to get while traveling so far away! I can’t wait for Chrissy and Dakota to hang out again! No
First I used Sharna at the last minute on an holiday weekend and she and her family welcomed Poc and Poki with open arms and took them right into her home. She treated them as if they were her own. Sharna played with them and walked them every day. Poc and Poki were so happy there they didn’t want to leave when I picked them up. I would refer everyone to her if they want their pets cared for properly !
Dana is a great listener, followed our every expectations & then some. The pictures received didn't even look like the pugs were even over @ another home, which made us feel so relieved & relaxed🥰🤗. You could tell they were really cared for & loved as if they were her owned.
Saya and David are absolutely incredible pet sitters! They sent us plenty of updates about Cricket’s stay. They also were so wonderfully kind to her; snuggling her, playing fetch, basically treating her like she was their own family member. I’ve never felt so safe leaving my pup before!
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Boarding in Springfield is $50 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $34 and $82 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 3,343 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 routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
95% of sitters in Springfield can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Springfield home-away-from-home, 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 , 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 .
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.
