About: I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life and genuinely love being around animals. I currently have two golden retrievers and a cat of my own, so I’m very comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs. I have experience watching both dogs and cats for others and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I treat every pet like family — honestly, I like animals more than humans. I work full time, but I’m only a couple minutes from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to come home during the day when needed and can also work remotely at times, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, potty breaks, walks, and companionship throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and two friendly dogs to help keep your fur baby company if they enjoy socializing. I can easily crate your dog if needed and am comfortable caring for animals of all breeds and sizes. Pets are welcome on the furniture and bed because we believe they deserve to feel at home and loved while you’re away. My husband and I both have so much love to give, and we’re always happy to provide cuddles, attention, and companionship if your pet enjoys affection.

“Alison is legitimately the best pet care provider I have EVER had. My cat fell completely in love with her. Every picture, Frannie was interacting with Alison. Keep in mind that Alison and Frannie were strangers to each other. Frannie was sitting in Alison's lap making biscuits on day one. Alison sent so many great photos and responded so quickly to all of my messages. When I got home the litter box was clean and the floor was clean. She literally vacuumed up all of the tracked litter. She was at our house caring for Frannie exactly when she said she would be, and I know this because we have a ring doorbell. I have already rebooked for our next trip.”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve spent a lifetime caring for, loving, and raising dogs of my own, including a time when I had four dogs in my household! I understand that dogs aren’t just pets; they’re family. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your furry family members when you can’t be there. My experience has taught me that every dog has their own unique personality, needs, and routines. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply having someone nearby to keep them company, I will provide loving, attentive, and dependable care. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring hands. I currently work from home, which gives me the flexibility and time to provide your furry family member with plenty of attention, companionship, and loving care throughout the day. Until recently, I was fortunate enough to share my home with my sweet girl, a beautiful Doberman/Lab mix who was 12 years old. I was blessed to spend her final months by her side, giving her all the love and care she deserved before making the hardest decision of my life and saying goodbye. She was such a kind, gentle, and loving soul, and she reminded me every day just how special the bond between people and their dogs truly is. At my personal home I have a fenced in yard. I am also close to many public walking trails. I love to walk and hike.

About: I’ve always loved dogs and genuinely enjoy caring for them. Building a bond with each dog is one of my favorite parts of pet sitting, and I treat every pup like they’re my own. I have a large, fully fenced-in yard where dogs can safely run, play, and have fun. My goal is to make sure your dog feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away, so you can have peace of mind. I work part-time as a Personal Care Assistant (PCA), where I help care for clients and support their daily needs. My job has a flexible schedule, which allows me to have open availability. This flexibility makes it easy for me to fit in dog walks and pet companionship throughout the week My home is a safe, clean, and welcoming place where dogs can feel comfortable and relaxed. I have a large, fully fenced in yard with plenty of space for dogs to run, play, and explore safely. I also have a friendly Golden Retriever of my own who loves other dogs, but I’m always happy to keep dogs separated if needed for their comfort, safety, or your preference. My goal is to provide a calm, loving environment where every dog gets the care and attention they deserve.

About: As a dedicated dog sitter with over 6 years of experience, I pride myself on offering personalized and attentive care that goes above and beyond the standard. My passion for animals and commitment to their well-being is evident in every aspect of my service. Pet care isn’t just a job for me; it’s an integral part of my daily routine and a true passion. Despite working from 6 AM to 3 PM, I have seamlessly integrated pet care into my schedule, ensuring each furry client receives the attention and love they deserve. My day starts early, and before I begin my workday, I make time for morning walks, ensuring each dog gets the exercise and stimulation they need to start their day off right. During my work hours, I ensure that any pet in my care is comfortable and attended to, with regular breaks to provide quick check-ins, snacks, and affection. Once my workday ends at 3 PM, I dedicate the rest of my afternoon and evening to pet care. This includes longer walks, play sessions, and any specialized attention a pet might need. Whether it’s a game of fetch, a grooming session, or some cuddle time, I ensure each pet feels happy and engaged. Balancing pet care with my work schedule has taught me the importance of organization, reliability, and, most importantly, the joy that comes from spending time with animals. My dedication to this routine ensures that every pet in my care feels loved, secure, and well-taken care of, no matter the time of day. Each walk is personalized, taking into account the dog’s temperament, energy level, and specific requirements. I prioritize safety and enjoyment, ensuring that each walk is a positive and enriching experience for your furry friend.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care, consistency, and attention I give to every pet. I don’t just stop in to complete tasks—I take the time to understand each animal’s personality, routine, and comfort level so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. I have experience with a variety of needs, including puppy care and basic training reinforcement. I can help maintain potty schedules, crate training, and simple commands, keeping things consistent so your puppy continues learning even when you’re not home. I’m also very comfortable with senior pet care, providing a slower, more attentive approach. I pay close attention to mobility, behavior, and any special routines to make sure older pets stay comfortable and stress-free. In addition, I’m detail-oriented and reliable. I carefully follow feeding schedules, instructions, and any special care requirements, and I always make sure your home and your pet’s space stay clean and well-maintained. Above all, I treat every pet like they’re my own—giving them patience, attention, and genuine care rather than just supervision. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around visits to ensure pets are fed, exercised, and given attention at consistent times. I’m reliable, flexible, and able to accommodate morning, afternoon on weekends and can provide full evening care, making sure each pet gets the time and consistency they need. For safety and trust, I always follow owner instructions carefully, keep environments clean and secure, and pay close attention to any changes in behavior or health. I treat every home with respect and make sure pets are always in a safe, comfortable environment. tailor my care based on each pet’s routine and the specific service requested, whether it’s drop-in visits, walks, or extended stays. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping everything as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’m also attentive to litter box or yard cleanup, administering medications if needed, and maintaining a clean, safe environment. I respect your home, keep things tidy, and always make sure doors, gates, and pets are secure before leaving. No matter the setting, my goal is to provide consistent, reliable care so your pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I've taken care of dogs and homes since I was in grade school, and so have 14 years of pet- and house-sitting experience. You can rely on me for numerous daily walks, active play dates, timely medicine provision, prescribed feedings, and even teeth cleaning. I’ve been a proud dog-owner since birth and currently have a sweet and goofy rescue fur baby (Armando). Rover is my only obligation as of now, as I don’t currently work. I’m an early riser as well as a night owl, so I can walk your pup(s) super early or late ~ and any time in between! My partner and I share a rescue dog in our home, so I’m available to house sit or do overnight stays since he can take care of our dog when I’m gone. Our doggo is super sweet, friendly, and loves other pets!! I have a very safe, gated 1,00 sqft house right off of the Deerfield Beach Island strip. we have a backyard with two permanent leashes so your pet(s) can hang out with me outside in close proximity. In my home your dogs will be allowed on all the furniture. In your home, I will respect whatever boundaries you have in place for your pets :)

About: It’s so hard to be away from your pup but having friends come in to visit and play makes the day feel not so long. I have had dogs my whole life. I just love their individual personalities. I typically work Monday through Friday and can pop in for an early morning visit and breakfast or stop by for a longer visit and dinner after work. My schedule is flexible so running over midway is possible if necessary. Weekends are generally wide open. I would like to work with you to meet your needs. I have 2 pups and 3 cats at home that love extra attention, playing and quiet snuggles. Nice long walks or a trip to the dog park could be a fun adventure. For cats, some scratches along the jaw line or kitty fishing can be an engaging way to interact.

FAQs for Dog Sitting - West Springfield

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in West Springfield is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $39 per visit. 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 November 2026, there are 1,823 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across West Springfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.

Before booking, confirm:

  • the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
  • the care instructions the sitter should follow;
  • which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
  • how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.

Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in West Springfield choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

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.

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 Meet & Greet.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in West Springfield with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in West Springfield. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

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.
