“Caitlin and her family took incredible care of our dog! She has stayed with them in the past and loved the accommodations AND the TLC! Caitlin provided a few photos while we were away, which only further assured us our pet was being well taken care of! Thanks again!”
“Riley and Hudson had an amazing stay with Heather. I received photo and videos of the dogs playing and doing tricks. The dogs even came home smelling better than they did when I dropped them off. She did such a good job I booked her for more weekends over the summer.”
“Minnie had a great stay with Glorymar, and her dog Buddy was also a great host, helping my dog who can be shy around people feel right at home for the weekend. My dog can be bossy with other dogs and Buddy let Minnie be the leader of the pack. Glorymar’s neighborhood is great for dog walks. I would definitely rebook next time I’m in Springfield.”
“Paul took excellent care of my dog Pierre while I was away for 4 days. Pierre became a member of the family, eating, sleeping, hiking, playing and just hanging out. I was very reassured to see how excited & happy Pierre became when Paul arrived to pick him up. Pierre was a shelter dog, and has struggled with anxiety, so this was momentous! I will certainly use Paul again through Rover for any other services I need!”
“I recommend Novelette highly. It seemed to take a bit for our dog to settle in, and Novelette was very patient & accommodating! She was a great communicator & sent plenty of pictures to keep me up-to-date on our dog. She was kind & flexible. Thank you again, Novelette!❤️”
“Liz did an amazing job handling separation anxiety with our Brady for a first time sleepover. Thank you Liz for also easing our anxiety too! 😊 and sending pictures ❤️”
“Summer was amazing with our dog, Abby. She provided pictures and updates regularly. Abby seemed really comfortable when we took her to meet Summer. We appreciate all of the snuggle time Abby got and will not hesitate to leave her in Summer’s care again! Thank you for everything, Summer.”
“I am so grateful and appreciative of Sandra‘s loving care of Lulu while I was gone for 13 days. Lulu has a seizure disorder and Sandra was amazing with giving her medication and keeping me updated every day with her status and sending pictures of how well loved and cared for she was. Sandra and her husband John invited Lulu into their home and treated her as though she was theirs!”
“Belle had a great experience with Russ and Janet once again. They took great care of her with lots of walks and pets. It's so reassuring that we can leave Belle with caring sitters. Thank you!”
“Karen provided excellent dog care for my Mia. Her Chihuahuas were polite and welcoming. Karen provided clear instructions at the meet and greeet as well as plenty of pictures during Mia's stay. Her house and backyard are perfect for taking care of dogs, especially small ones like Mia. I am grateful to have found Karen, and I am sure I will be calling in for her help again in the future.”
“Lindsey was wonderful and we can tell Roxie had an amazing time. Roxie loved the fenced in yard! Roxie gets nervous with hard wood floors but Lindsey was very accommodating and even put out a runner so Roxie would feel more comfortable. We will definitely be booking with her again and I’m sure Roxie can’t wait to go back! Thank you for taking great care of Roxie!”
“Once again, Dash has a great stay with Alan and Luis. We received pictures every day with updates and when we pull into their driveway Dash gets excited to see their dogs and loves running in their fenced in yard. We never have to worry about Dash when we go away ‘”
“I booked Rachel last minute fully expecting for her to not respond or say she was available and she responded within minutes for my last second request. She and her family took excellent care of Hank and sent me several pictures and updates through out. 10/10. Very happy to have found someone trust worthy i can leave my dog with and have no worries without feeling like i am burdening friends or family.”
“We couldn’t have asked for our doggie to be more loved and cared for. We just moved from California and were nervous about leaving our pup for the first time since the big move, but Katelyn and her family were absolutely wonderful. They sent photos to keep us posted and he looked perfectly comfy and at home in each. We are so grateful to have found Katelyn and would recommend her to others without hesitation. Our dog came back to us as though he had been on a retreat! Calm, happy, and himself.”
“Amy was wonderful! She cared for my anxious Minnie Schnauzer, sending me updates and photos each day, and that set my mind at ease. Instant good vibe from Amy. Clean, comfortable home with a fenced yard, and daily walks. I will definitely call her again.”
“Patti is a wonderful person and took great care of my dog. He is an old and she made him so comfortable and welcome in her home. She is quick to communicate with me and was great at letting me know how he was doing. I will definitely be using Patti again. Thank you Patti”
“Abigale was wonderful with Bailey our senior pup. She administered his special diet food and sent us great daily photo updates which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. They provided a safe, cozy environment and we joked that Bailey seemed to have made himself right at home! I would not hesitate to book with them again !”

Caitlin and her family were fantastic, caring for my dog while my family and I were away. I had complete confidence my dog was being loved and well cared for. Caitlin sent daily pictures and updates with what they did each day. I would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a responsible and wonderful family to care for their pet.
Aishea was wonderful with my dogs! They had never been properly socialized around other dogs and she was able to get them to join the pack and have fun! One of my dogs can go on a hunger strike when I leave but he ate by days 2 with her. She sent photos and updates during the week they were with her and took them on walks. Her house is set up perfectly with multiple rooms for the dogs to occupy (inside!) and a large fenced in backyard for running, lounging and playing. I was very grateful that she took such good care of them.
Joseirys M. was absolutely amazing with our dog Django. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Django is a rescue and can be pretty anxious and fearful around new people, so we’re always very careful about who we leave him with. From the moment he was with Joseirys, it was clear she has a natural understanding of dogs and how to make them feel safe. She was incredibly patient, gentle, and attentive, and Django quickly became comfortable in a way that honestly surprised us. What really stood out was how well she adapted—not just to Django’s needs, but to our schedule as well while we were in LA. She was communicative, reliable, and went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Django was in such good hands. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares and treats your pet like their own, I highly recommend Joseirys. We will definitely be booking with her again.
Heather was great with our fur baby. She had a fenced in yard so he got plenty of outside time in despite the snowy winter, which was great. Her pup, Zeus, is super sweet and chill and was good with our boy. Heather was a great communicator which helped ease my nervous dog-mom brain! Would recommend!

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.
99% of West 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 West 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 West 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 West 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 West 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 MA 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.
