“It was so easy coordinating Milo’s meet-and-greet and first daycare day with Asia. All the great reviews are well deserved—we’d absolutely recommend her. Milo was clearly well cared for and came home happy and healthy.”
“My dog, Aspen, had a great day with Michelle and doggy friends. I rarely leave Aspen with sitters but she was so happy when I picked her up and napped the entire way home. Michelle was great about sending updates throughout the day. We’ll be going back!”
“Kristi-Ann, Andrew and their pup Loki were so welcoming of my crazy mutt! They took him in like one of their own and have a great dog-friendly setup. Thanks for having him on a hot day—he had way more fun than staying at home!”
“I highly reccomend Tamara. We were first time vistors to the area, and she was very accommodating when our plans changed last minute, was helpful answering our questions about the area, and was understanding when traveling back from D.C. took longer then we anticipated. Most importantly, my nervous dog settled in very quickly and was very comfortable staying with her, and I picked him up relaxed and happy.”
“Henry was great with Tucker! We needed a last minute sit and he was happy to accommodate. Life saver! He made sure that Tucker was comfortable and cared for. He kept us updated throughout the day - pictures and all - and was flexible on pickup time. I’m very happy to have found Henry for a day of daycare play.”

“Thank you Nicole for taking great care of our puppy as it was your own. By the second day our puppy was very excited to go over, I was very at peace knowing he was in great hands. 🙌”
“Adriana has been an amazing sitter for Rosie! Rosie is always excited to see her, which gives me peace of mind whenever I leave her in Adriana’s care. She is responsible, reliable, and incredibly accommodating, and I always know Rosie will be well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”
About: I have been taking dogs and cats since I was 13 years old helping neighbors and close friends. Sometimes keeping them for multiple weeks on because of travel to walks. Love fur animals so know with me you fur baby will receive nothing but love an attention! I work from home so morning walks and afternoon are preferable. If staying prefer night before drop off and intro meeting. Weekends need to be scheduled in advanced! I have no pets currently I have a two bed apartment with many dog areas along with great area to walk and not far from park.
“Andrew was amazing we had a last minute issue requiring us to have to get the dogs daycare. Andrew answered our request super fast and was able to take our 2 large dogs. He was super responsive throughout the day and the dogs had a blast. They came back home exhausted! Wonderful job”
“Donna was very warm and caring towards our dog. She was very thoughtful in ensuring our dog felt comfortable and we really appreciated it. She was also fantastic in communicating with us! She clearly loves dogs and we highly recommend her!”
“Thank you so much for taking care of Cappuccino today. He had such a good time and was taken care of so well. The updates throughout the day were so cute especially with Harper!”
“I always get nervous leaving my 1 year old pup with someone new, but Elizabeth was absolutely wonderful and exceeded all my expectations. I could tell immediately that she’s a dog person, and she sent me tons of updates throughout the day. I’m so grateful for her and will be booking again next time I need daycare!”
“Yichen is a great sitter! We had a meet and greet before our first stay so that she could get to know my dog better. I think thanks to that, my dog’s stay went smoothly the next day. I appreciate her flexibility and friendliness, and I can tell my dog enjoys her stays at her place. Yichen has a playful shih tzu named Ube that my dog loves playing with. Overall, Yichen is a 10/10 sitter!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Springfield
mina LOVED her stay with kara and devin. they also assisted with potty training her and it was a big help. it’s very hard finding someone you can trust but they did not disappoint and were serious when they said they would treat ur dog like family. mina had a wonderful experience being with them and they kept up with updates of her. i would recommend them!
I needed a last-minute sitter for my two fur babies, and she was absolutely wonderful! She was great at communicating, kept me updated, and took care of my girls like they were her own. I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in such loving and capable hands. I would definitely recommend her and will happily use her again!
Our dog Indigo had a great stay with Victoria. She was very welcoming and helped our shy dog adjust and feel at home. Her very friendly dog was also a great friend to our pup, which I know helped too. Victoria was accommodating to our schedule, kept us informed, and took great care of our dog. We'll definitely be back and I'm sure our Indigo will be excited to see her again!
Marley had such a great time with Hyunbang and Love! I'm nervous every time I leave her since Marley is an anxious girl, but Hyunbang's calming presence and regular communication put me completely at ease. I loved the constant updates and adorable photos throughout the day. My girl clearly had a blast! We have boarding booked with her in a few weeks, and I am relieved to know Marley will be in such good hands.
Jennifer was absolutely fantastic with our 1 year old pup. I felt so comfortable leaving him in her care and got regular updates throughout the day. She was also very understanding when he had accidents in her home. I can’t thank her enough for taking such great care of him and recommend her highly!
They made Chance and Po feel so at home. Both the home and back yard (fully fenced in) are clean, comfortable, and well maintained. Anya was very welcoming of both of them, and somehow both Sarah and her husband made our incredibly shy dog feel comfortable enough to ask for pets, which absolutely never happens. 10/10
BEST DOGSITTER EVER! Carlos is truly one-of-a-kind. I could not ask for a better human to care for my dog. My dog is a rescue that did not have good experiences with humans for the first 2 years of his life so naturally he is cautious of humans, but every time he sees Carlos, his tail starts wagging and he does the full-body wiggles. It makes my heart so happy and gives me peace of mind. It is obvious that Carlos truly loves dogs and cares for them like his own. He is also highly responsive, provides regular updates and amazing pictures. I cannot say enough good things about Carlos. He is the ONLY dogsitter I reach out to now. Carlos has earned my highest recommendation.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Doggy Day Care in Springfield is $39 per day as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $31 and $50 per day. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 5,031 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across Springfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Springfield commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
As of October 2026, there are 5,031 sitters on Rover offering Doggy Day Care across the region of VA. Enter your address or desired location to see which available sitters are closest to you.
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.
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 .
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 , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
