“Yuiko is the best! My dog is very anxious little chiwawa She is understanding and takes excellent care of our furry baby when we are long away. She provides updates and pictures, giving us peace of mind knowing our little guy is enjoying his time. I was worry free during the trip because of Yuiko. I highly recommend Yuiko .We are so grateful we found her!!”
“Eric did a wonderful job watching our senior dog! We received updates on our dog's stay and we look forward to booking with Eric again. Highly recommend!”
“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!!!”
“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!”
“Carly was fantastic. She watched my dog, Griffey, over Memorial Day Weekend and I was very satisfied with the experience. Carly was proactive with sending updates every day throughout the stay, so I always knew how Griffey was doing. It was a great environment for Griffey - her two dogs provided the companionship, socialization, and play that he would not typically have otherwise, and the hikes Carly took him on gave him plenty of exercise. Carly was a great sitter and it was clear that she genuinely cared for Griffey's well-being. I would definitely return as a customer if Griffey needs a sitter in the future.”
“We appreciate Ginger (and Phil) so much! Our Rico and Margo are characters for sure, each with their own little quirks and needs, but Ginger is so amazing with them! She’s so caring and communicative, always making sure they’re happy and comfortable!”
“My husband and I were skeptical to leave our dog with a stranger at first. Nevertheless, all the dog lovers out there, knows that “NO ONE” watches our fur babies unless it is very necessary. Fortunately, Sam and Samuel were amazing people from the moment we met them. They were patient, caring, loving, and flexible with our schedules. They even embraced Knox’s hyperactive temperament. We requested to have a meet-up with them prior to making a decision that soon after my husband and I were appreciative for the care our fur baby would receive. Knox was overly excited to stay with Sam and Samuel from Thursday, 12-5 through Friday, 12-6 overnight. They were very proactive with communication and sent us many updates of how happy, and excited he was to be in their presence. My husband and I loved the interaction they gave to our baby. Awesome dog sitter that loves on our dog. They will be our forever sitter. Thanks to our sitter, Sam and Samuel for taking great care of our boy, Knox. See you very soon!”
“Amazing as always - watched Marshall over the Christmas holiday and treated him like his own pup! Lavished him with toys, cuddles, and hugs! Marshall is a demanding dog - does not play well with other dogs and doesn’t like to be left alone and he just absolutely thrives with Chris. Thank you!”
“We are thankful for Christine loving on our pup Rex for a short last minute stay this weekend. We were able to rest assured that he was well taken care of while we enjoyed time with our daughter in college.”
“Alice was an excellent sitter - professional, responsive, and sent plenty of photo updates throughout the stay. I could rest assured that my dog was being well-cared for!”
“Emelie is a great dog sitter! This was our first time having our 2 year old dog stay with Emelie. She provided a meet and greet well ahead of his stay, and was very communicative and responsive ahead of and during the long weekend. We had to make a last minute change in our schedule, and she readily accommodated. Her set-up is ideal, with plenty of outdoor and indoor space, and a few other dogs to play with. Finally, Emelie gets dog social dynamics and is very effective at managing the set up all around.”
“When I first met Laura, I was impressed by how she handled my fearful and sometimes reactive dog. Her calm and confident demeanor and her caring attitude quickly won over Calvin. Within minutes of meeting Laura and her dog, Wally, Calvin was literally eating out of her hands. Laura not only gave me peace of mind during my vacation by sending me photos of Calvin and keeping me updated, but she also made Calvin feel safe and part of her family. I will definitely use Laura's services again!”
“Olivia was great at watching my dog Milo over an extended period of time. It was easy to setup a meet and greet where we did a walk with Milo. She made sure to keep me updated daily with photos and videos, and texts. She took really good care of Milo. I would absolutely recommend Olivia and to use her again in the future.”
“Amy was fantastic - we instantly felt comfortable with her husband and her (and, more importantly, so did the dog!). She was very detail oriented, sent pictures throughout Champ's short stay and made sure Champ got plenty of exercise. I also appreciated her policy not to take multiple dogs at once. We will definitely be repeating with Amy - the whole experience was great!”
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.
“We’ve had Audrey watch our dogs multiple times. Every time we pick them up, it’s evident that they feel right at home and adore Audrey. We would absolutely recommend her to everyone.”
“Jennifer is so great with Lucy! She spends time with her a d takes her out for walks. She keeps us informed on how Lucy is doing and sends fun picks. We highly reccommend Jennifer!”
“Nicole and Alexis were great with Shaggy Bob! They met in advance and also let Shaggy meet their dog Cinnamon too to make sure they were okay with each other. They sent photos and updates each day!”
The median cost per night for pet boarding in Springfield is $50

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!
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 .
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!

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.

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.

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.
