“Michelle and her family were great! From our initial meet and greet, we felt comfortable and knew Koda would be safe, well cared for, and having fun. Michelle kept us updated throughout his stay with photos and videos, which we really appreciated. Koda came home happy and well taken care of. We would definitely rebook with Michelle and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and reliable dog sitter!”
“Jona is AMAZING! This is our second time having her watch our mini goldendoodle! At this point, we just call her place Disney World for pets. She stays in communication the entire time while sending photos of our pet eating his food, going for a walk, playing or resting. She’s very caring and you can tell that she loves nurturing animals. We hope to only use Jona when we need someone to watch our dog. She’s truly TOP NOTCH!!!”
“Carlos provides outstanding service, attention to detail and love for the pets he is boarding. We received multiple daily updates and fotos of our French Bulldog, I highly recommend his boarding service for your pet. He is best! Thanks, Carlos!”
“Ann & Richard were wonderful! Scout had a great time in their beautiful home and loved running in their big backyard! She will definitely be back when we head on our next vacation, thank you again!”
“Miguelina and her family took wonderful care of my Reginald for the week he stayed. I got a brief update and pictures at the end of each day which I appreciated. Flexible on drop off and pick up. Reggie seemed happy and healthy when I picked him up.”
“I was really nervous because this was the first time I had someone else watch Cooper, but they made me feel comfortable right away. They let me walk around the house, answered all my questions beforehand, and even little things like having rugs on the hardwood made me feel better about him being there. She was very communicative the whole time and sent a bunch of pictures and updates, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. You can tell she and her husband truly care and make the pets they watch feel like part of their family. Cooper seemed to settle in well and came home happy. I’d absolutely book with them again.”
“Asia is an excellent sitter. She's very outgoing and responsive, communication was a breeze. Asia did a great job with our dog who is a senior and requires several types of medication, multiple times per day. I would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a great dog sitter.”
“Gail was so wonderful with my pup Mia!! I received several updates and photos to rest assured that my girl was safe and happy!! Thanks, Gail! We will definitely see you again!!”
“Cheryl and Gustavo are so dependable and wonderful to Buddy. Their place has been a home away from home and we are so grateful we’ve been able to rely on them. Thank you so much Cheryl and Gustavo. Especially for letting us extend the stay multiple times.”
“David and his family did a great job with our puppy, Dobby. In fact I would say that we got Dobby back better trained and socialized than when he was dropped off for 2 weeks. Thanks for all the attention.”
“Ollie has the best time with Donna and always comes back so happily tired! And we love all the adorable updates she sends. Ollie is excited to head back to Donna’s next week for more fun!!”
“Khristie was excellent with my dog Goose who is somewhat needy and shy. He was immediately comfortable around her and she took great care of him. He had a ton of quality cuddle and play time. Can’t thank you enough!”
“Christine took good care of our dog for week. We were nervous because this was his first time staying with other dogs longer than a day. He came home happy and exhausted after a week of play. We received photos and videos throughout the week and he was packed up, ready to go at pickup- we appreciated that after a long day of travel.”
“Quincy had a great week with Michelle and her family, including Cinnamon. Quincy was taking medications and recovering from leg surgery. Michelle cared for him the way I would have. This was our first stay with Michelle and we will definitely stay with her again.”
“Helena is so kind and responsive. She watched Charlie for 8 days and sent us pics/videos of Charlie’s daily walks and of Charlie having fun with her little dog.We also truly appreciated that she only took care of one dog at a time, so Charlie’s bed came back clean and didn’t have other pet hair. I would absolutely entrust Helena with Charlie again for a long term stay.”
“Aisha is the perfect match for Maggie. She is dependable, sends me pictures daily, and shares with my updates and concerns. Every time Maggie arrives to Aisha’s home, Maggie is very excited. They adore each other so very much !”
“This was my first time ever using Rover and I must say it was such a great experience! Veronica was super laid back and made me feel that Jax was in great hands. I was so worried to drop him off with someone other than family but I will most definitely be reaching out to Veronica in the future. Thanks Veronica!”

Shannon was amazing with Cola! She treated her with so much love and care. Our babygirl can be emotional and based on all of the pics we received she was so happy. She took amazing care of her and sent so many updates! I'd highly recommend Shannon to anyone looking for a pet sitter! We'll definitely be using her moving forward instead of boarding her!
Viviana was absolutely amazing with Murphy! She was so great about keeping us updated and always captured the funniest moments of our girl. Murphy was so happy every day - it truly felt like she was at camp! 🐾❤️ Viviana was incredibly responsive and flexible with pickup and drop-off, and she really made her home feel like Murphy’s home. We could tell how comfortable and happy Murphy was the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind. Murphy already can’t wait to be back in October! We’re so grateful to Viviana and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will love and care for their pup like family!
Michelle and her family were great! From our initial meet and greet, we felt comfortable and knew Koda would be safe, well cared for, and having fun. Michelle kept us updated throughout his stay with photos and videos, which we really appreciated. Koda came home happy and well taken care of. We would definitely rebook with Michelle and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and reliable dog sitter!
We couldn’t have asked for better care for our Marley! Hyunbang, Austin, and Love were absolutely wonderful with her while we were away. The regular updates helped put our minds at ease, and the photo updates were so cute and fun, and we looked forward to them each day. It was clear Marley was having the best time playing and running around their backyard and then napping comfortably around the house. She came home happy, and we’re already looking forward to her next stay with them!
Paula is absolutely wonderful! This was the third time she has watched Samba, and once again, she was amazing. This time, she cared for Samba for 10 days, and we felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such good hands. She kept us updated and took such great care of Samba. We’re so grateful to have found someone we trust so much and would highly recommend Paula to anyone looking for an excellent dog sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Springfield on Rover is $61.05 per night (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 7,252 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 VA 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.
