“Yuiko was an excellent sitter. She was able to be flexible with my schedule as I was traveling out of the country. She kept me updated with pictures and information. I have an older dog, and felt in total comfort and confidence in her skills and care. I highly HIGHLY recommend her.”
About: I’ve been a pet owner/parent since I was a child. I’ve owned Pugs, Frenchies, Rotties, Great Danes and even mixed breeds from puppies to seniors. This has given me the knowledge to understand that all pups are different and may need different attention depending on their stage of life, but rest assured all pups will receive safe, reliable and loving care. At this time caring for your pet is my only job so I’ll have plenty of time to play with and care for your pups! I’m available for boarding with a drop off window between 9:30am and 7:30pm weekdays, with the exception of 5:30-6pm which is typically when I like to feed the pups unless instructed otherwise. I like to allow about an hour and a half of rest after eating for proper digestion before any playtime. Checkout should be no later than 10:00am, or you will be charged the daycare fee for that day and your pet must be picked up by 6pm.. On weekends drop off times are after 2pm but there may be an opportunity for some flexibility that can be discussed if an earlier time is needed. Daycare hours will run 8:30am to 6pm Monday to Friday. “PLEASE NOTE” that all pets must be up to date with shots and flea and tick meds for daycare and boarding. Proof will be required. Your pets safety is very important to me which is why I require dog friendly pets only and no puppies under 5 months. If you are unsure of how your pet will handle boarding I suggest trying a couple days of daycare to get them adjusted. At no time will your pet ever be left alone in the yard or unattended in my home. If something comes up and I need to run an errand, your pet will be crated/pen for safety. I have central air to keep the pets cool and if your pup feels a bit overwhelmed at first while boarding by my resident dogs, I can offer separation if needed.
“Amy was amazing with my dog, Roxy!! I highly recommend using her. Roxy is an older mini goldendoodle and Amy was so accommodating and sweet with her. I got daily updates with photos. I felt so comfortable and Amy made the process super smooth. I booked her last minute and so glad I did. I highly recommend and would use her again!”
“Kristina does such a great job with Oli, who clearly loves hanging out at her home while we are away. Kristina sends lots of pictures of her long daily walks and playtime at home.”
“Dakota seemed so comfortable which is rare for him because he’s super anxious and old and set in his ways! I’m so grateful for Christin and I received pictures along the way and I will definitely be rebooking!!”
“Eric and Raz are our favorite dog sitters. They clearly love and care about our dog and we always feel 100% confident that she is well cared for with them. They give her lots of cuddles and have a good sense of her needs. It’s always a pleasure.”
“We had a great experience boarding with Leah. We arranged a meet and greet prior which was helpful for me and my husband and probably our dog Maggie. Leah was a good communicator and flexible. I feel like she took good care of Maggie and that her dogs were good companions and helped Maggie pass the time playing. I’m not sure our dog missed us at all. Thank you Leah and family.”
“Alice is awesome! She helped take care of my dog Emily while I was traveling for three days. Alice is very trustworthy and responsible. She is detail-oriented and made sure everything related to Emily—her leash, eating habits, and walking routine—was in order from the very first day. She also gave Emily lots of pets to help her adjust well. Alice sent me pictures every day and responded to my texts promptly! When I picked Emily up, she kept looking back in the direction of Alice’s apartment—I could tell Emily really liked her and missed her! I highly recommend Alice if you need boarding services. She’s truly great!”
“Christine is the best ! She deserves more than 5 stars. This was my first time leaving my boy Milo. I was full of worries and anxiety as most of us feel when leaving our precious little ones. But all those feelings were gone when I met Christine. She is knowledgeable and kind with animals. She sent me many pictures and videos. Communication was great. Her love for Milo made me feel at ease. Milo loves her too ! Will definitely use her services again .”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and have had my own since college. I’ve owned a beagle, a couple of pit mix rescues, a boxer and currently a terrier mix rescue who is about 1.5 years old. I work in education, so I’m off for summers, so offer plenty of time, attention and play time with our super-friendly 1.5 y/o terrier pooch I have a fenced yard with plenty of play space and a sociable, playful dog. I can crate-train if desired. Available for walks 2X daily
“Tony was great with my two doggies Molly and Mochi. He was also very communicative and sent me daily updates. I love that he sent me pictures and videos throughout the day so I could see that my doggies were happy and enjoying backyard time with Tony, Minnie, Diamond, Roxie and Charlie.”
“Jessica is absolutely wonderful and I can’t recommend her enough! I have a quirky senior dog and Jessica takes such great care of her and I can tell she loves on my dog like she’s her own. Jessica asks all the right questions and is a great communicator, she always checks in and sends the best pictures. My schedule can sometimes be fluid while I’m away traveling and Jessica is beyond accommodating when it comes to pick up and drop off times. I have booked with Jessica 3 times now and will continue to book with her as much as I can!”
“Christopher is the best rover sitter out there ! So happy to have his help with my dog Tofu whenever I go out of town. They do so many fun things together and Christopher is always keeping me updated with cute pics of their day together.”
“Liam was fantastic with Maggie, and she loved playing with Jack! Liam was incredibly communicative providing updates and photos of Maggie which is so comforting when being away from your fur baby. We highly recommend booking with him!”
“Chrissy did a fantastic job taking care of Sammie and sent us pictures and movie clips and kept us updated. When we went to pick up Sammie he was looking well looked after, loved and very happy! Chrissy is loving and compassionate person which also makes her the best person and excellent choice to take care of your precious little furry family member!”
“Derek was fantastic. Super communicative and it was clear that he truly loved spending time with our pup. That means the world to us. We will definitely book him again!!”
“Tim was great! Took Billie on many walks and kept us updated the entire time we were away. Would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a dogsittee”
“This was my second time having Stephanie and her partner watch Clowe, and I could not be happier! Stephanie is a great communicator, and always available. My pup can’t wait to hang there again! Thanks Stephanie!”

There is not enough good things I can say about the care that Juliana showed Meek. She is warm and friendly and Meek sensed it immediately and was comfortable in her care. I received updates and pictures of daily walks and time spent in her home. Juliana is so wonderful with communication that make you feel so comfortable that your pup is safe, having fun and in a happy home. We will definitely be using her again many times over. Thank you Juliana!!!
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!
Kaelin is very sweet and attentive to your pets , I left my cat with her and she would constantly update me on her whether if it was photos or messaging me just how she was. My cat is a little shy so she was nervous but Kaelin was very sweet to her, would definitely recommend .
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!

There are 3,476 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Springfield. About 89% of Springfield sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
