This was our first time ever using a sitter, and Carlos put us at ease right off the bat during the initial meeting. He was receptive to our concerns (our dog is 12), and let us know that our dog was in good hands. During our dog’s 4-day stay with Carlos, we got numerous updates during each day with pictures and summaries. Our dog looked so happy to be with Carlos and Sasha! Carlos was also willing to accommodate a late pickup on the final day due to flight issues, which we really appreciated. He even wrote us a very sweet and heartfelt message thanking us for entrusting our dog to his care. I can’t recommend Carlos enough, and we will definitely be back if we need a sitter in the future.

We had such a great experience with Rosario! Rosario took amazing care of our two fur babies while we were away and kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages. It was clear from the start that they truly love animals, as our dogs warmed up to them right away. We’ve already booked with Rosario & Juan again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!

Vincent is a wonderful pet sitter! His home and his dogs are warm and welcoming - and my dog, Bubbles, absolutely LOVED running around in his fenced in backyard. Vincent sent regular updates during Bubbles' stay which put my mind at ease as this was Bubbles first stay away from home since we adopted him. I would highly recommend his services. In fact, I've already booked Vincent again to watch Bubbles during an upcoming trip.

She sent regular pictures and updated us on her day. Tiger returned in perfect condition, well fed, happy and energetic. We can tell how much Sidnei truly loves dogs and look forward to boarding Tiger with her whenever we are on vacation in the future.

I can't say about my experience with Carlos watching Sophie. From the beginning, he was kind, professional, communicative, and incredibly reassuring. Leaving your dog with someone else can be concerning, but Carlos made the entire experience feel easy and completely stress-free. He took exceptional care of Sophie, treating her with genuine kindness, patience, and attention. From the updates he sent throughout her stay, it was clear that she was happy, comfortable, safe, and well cared for. His consistent communication gave me peace of mind—I never had to wonder how she was doing because he kept me informed every step of the way. During her stay, Sophie was also introduced to several new canine friends, and she adjusted beautifully—a true credit to Carlos's caring nature, skill, and ability to make every dog feel comfortable and secure. What impressed me most was the level of care and attentiveness he showed. He followed her routine, made sure she was comfortable, gave her plenty of love and attention, and created an environment where she felt safe and secure. That kind of dedication and trustworthiness is truly priceless. I'm incredibly grateful for the wonderful care Carlos provided and would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely caring pet sitter. Sophie was in the best hands, and I would not hesitate to book with him again. It was an outstanding experience from start to finish.

10/10 experience! I genuinely feel like Cocoa found her second family. They were absolutely amazing with her from start to finish and treated her like she was one of their own. I received regular updates throughout the weekend, which made me feel so comfortable and reassured knowing she was happy, safe, and being completely spoiled with love and attention. You can tell they truly care about the dogs they watch and do so much more than just “pet sit.” They made Cocoa feel at home, and that means everything to me. I never once felt worried or uneasy while she was with them while away on my trip because they were so attentive and communicative. I honestly could not have asked for a better family to care for my girl. They did a phenomenal job, and I am beyond grateful to have found people I can genuinely trust with her. I will absolutely be using them again in the future and would recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking for loving, dependable, and trustworthy pet care. Cocoa was clearly in the best hands, and I know she will be so excited to go back! 🐾❤️

Joanna is fantastic and we can’t wait for our next stay with her! She was flexible with our booking, very communicative, and such a loving sitter for Wynnie. She listened to our needs, especially with Wynn’s reactivity, and I felt confident that I was leaving my pup in the best hands. Wynnie had the best weekend ever and even came back home with a new toy! Can’t wait for our next stay ♥️

We had a great experience with Alyssa, and our pup seemed to really enjoy their time together. Alyssa was always great with communication and care, and was extra nice when our doggo developed an ear infection while staying with her - even texting us to see if there was anything that she could do before we got back to pick her up. We would not hesitate to have our dog stay with her again.

FAQs for Boarding - Springfield

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Springfield on Rover is $61.05 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 7,276 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.
