This was our dog's first stay with Jona, and a long one (three weeks). She was a great communicator, sending regular updates and photos about all activities, as well as quickly responding to our questions. Nike clearly had a great time and was returned in great shape (an odd thing to say, perhaps, but bad things can happen in this business). We will definitely use her in the future.

Vincent was a fantastic sitter! He was super responsive, friendly, and sent us frequent updates of our fur baby, Charlie, while my husband and I were out of town. Charlie loved playing with Vincent's pup, Pearl, and was thankful for all of the homemade dog treats Vincent fed her. We'll definitely take Charlie back to Vincent next time we have another trip!

Coco spent a week with Ann and Richard. I was updated with pictures and notes each day. They have a lovely backyard yard and Coco looked like he had a fabulous time. I enjoyed my own trip even more knowing Coco was so well cared for. I will definitely rebook with Ann and Richard again!! Thanks so so much!!

This was our first experience using DogVacay. We had excellent communication with Nicole, Jim and family from our initial enquiry and throughout Gilda's week long stay. It was clear from the daily photos, movies and updates that Gilda had a wonderful time and felt very comfortable. She had plenty of opportunities for play and exercise. When our pick up plans changed unexpectedly, Nicole was flexible and helpful. Thank you for taking such great care of Gilda. She loves the homemade dog treats.

Miguelina and her daughter did a wonderful job with communicating with me, especially when I mentioned it was my first time using Rover. They also would send pictures of Langley and he looked happy and like he was having a great time, which made it easier for me while I was gone. They do seem take multiple dogs at a time, which is fine, but it would have been nice to see Langley playing with other dogs and when he was getting walked for me to know he was getting walked.

Cheryl and Gustavo took such wonderful care of Noah. They kept me updated throughout the day and always sent sweet photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. They made sure Noah went on nice walks, and she looked so happy and loved in every picture. I’m truly grateful for their kindness and care — I would happily trust them with Noah again anytime.

Sidnei took wonderful care of our dog, Ms Tiger, well our family was away for the weekend. We couldn’t have asked for a better boarding experience. 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.

My pup had a great weekend with Aisha over a long weekend. She was great about asking about what I was okay with her doing with my dog, like if it was okay to take him to the park with other dogs. It was my first time using a pet sitter so I was nervous to leave him, but she knew all the right questions to ask to make it a safe and fun weekend for him. I loved the picture updates of how my pup's weekend was going and hearing about what they did that day, and all the communication about her daily schedule and plan for potty breaks. Would definitely recommend her and will be booking again when we need a sitter again!

Sophie is so pampered with Meghan and Irene. She is older and they carry her up and down stairs to keep her safe. They fight over who is going to get to sleep next to her. They show as much love for Sophie as they do for their own dogs. Sophie is always happy to arrive at their house.

Another great stay with Kim! Waldo spent a week with her and her family and had a blast. It was a warm week weather wise and she made sure to walk him earlier in the day and later to avoid the hottest times. She provided daily updates and photos and even gave him his puzzle toy daily to help with mental stimulation. I appreciate how well she took care of Waldo while we were gone. Highly recommend her and plan to continue to use her services in the future!

We left our 5yo partially blind pug with Fabiola for almost two weeks and she took great care of him. She was very good about providing multiple photo/video updates throughout the boarding so we got to see how much fun he was having. Despite not being familiar with this heat-sensitive breed, she was diligent about following his routine schedule & medicated eye drops we provided. We’re grateful we were able to find such a caring pet sitter. We picked up a healthy and happy pup and will be using her again. Highly recommend!

I can’t say enough great things about Carlos! Caring, communicative, responsible, responsive! He was attentive to our older dog’s special needs and took the time to send so many wonderful photos and videos as well as detailed updates. We will definitely book Carlos again. He is a top notch sitter and recommend without any reservations.

I got loads of pictures and was getting updates 3-4 times a day. They really helped me feel at ease with leaving Maple with them. They also set a meet and greet prior to the booking to make me feel comfortable with leaving her with the family. When I picked her up she was excited to see me, but I could tell her had loads of fun during her stay! Will definitely be using this Rover service with Irene and Megha again!

Michelle (& her family) was AMAZING!! She sent pictures and videos so often I felt like I was there! She treated my dog as though she was her own. My dog got personal walks as well which I wasn’t even expecting but loved so so much. Such a huge comfort and she was so accommodating with my changing schedule. They exceeded my expectations & I would 1000% bring my dog back without hesitation. I recommend any and everyone to go to her!

Alyssa was incredible. This was the first time we were leaving our dog Nelli with someone other than family or a very close family friend so we were very nervous. But Alyssa certainly made our nerves disappear. She was extremely good at sending us pictures and updating us every single day. She went above and beyond for our girl and we are extremely grateful.

Jackie asked a lot of questions during the meet-and-greet to make sure we were the right fit and she had as much information as possible to meet Gretel's needs. Jackie was communicative and flexible, which made things easy. I could tell from the pictures that Gretel really integrated into the family. Gretel was relaxed and happy when I picked her up. That's not always true after a trip, so I take it as a huge compliment to Jackie for making her feel welcome.

Vanessa is hands down the best pet sitter. I had a last minute cancelation and she was so willing to watch my pups during a holiday even. She treats my dogs like her own and makes a dedicated effort to make the dogs feel at home. I moved out of state and I still thought of her first after my first sitter (closer to my area) fell through. Her and her family are so sweet and I always appreciate her love and care for my pups!

We had just moved from overseas, and she was very flexible and understanding throughout the process. Kaya can be nervous when meeting someone for the first time, but she was patient, considerate, and respectful of Kaya’s pace. She was understanding of the adjustment process for both Kaya and our family after an overseas move. We truly appreciated her care and would gladly trust her with Kaya again in the near future.

Ayme is an amazing pet sitter! My rescue dog is very skittish around new people but she took the time to help him become comfortable with her and now he loves her!

FAQs for Dog 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.
