“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.”
“Rosario was really good with my dog she sent pictures throughout the day and made me feel at ease while I was away traveling. I would definitely use her as a sitter again she was great!”
“David and his family are amazing! He is very diligent in sending pictures and updates. Otis loves going over there. They give him lots of love, cuddles, treats, walks, and exercise. Otis is excited every time we pull up to the house and I know he is well taken care of when he is there.”
“Cheryl & Gustavo were great! Shared lots of pics and kept me updated on how my baby girl was doing. They were flexible with drop off and pickup. Will definitely use them again!”
“We are so grateful that Krysta was able to watch our baby boy while we traveled out of the country. She was great about sending photos every day so we could see how well Archie was doing and how much fun he was having. Archie settled in quickly and seems to have so much fun with his new friends.”
“Jona takes such good care of our dog. She takes the time with each dog to find out what they need and makes sure they are always comfortable and feel safe. Our dog loves to spend time with her!”
“Youngri was amazing. I felt completely at ease throughout the night, knowing that my senior dog was in good hands. It’s clear that she and her family have a genuine love and care for animals. She kept me updated on how my 16-year-old pup was doing and maintained a high level of professionalism at all times. I will definitely work with her again.”
“Veronica is AMAZING!! Was very worried leaving my 6 month old Basenji, Braxton, as it was our first time leaving him and he’s a very energetic puppy. He LOVED it!! He made lots of new friends and enjoyed every second of it. Will definitely continue to use Veronica in the future.”
“Miguelina was really amazing and took wonderful care of our dog while we were out of the country. She sent pictures every day with an update on how things were going and she was also really flexible with the pickup timing after we experienced a flight delay. I highly recommend her!”
“Vincent was awesome! My husband and I went on vacation for 2 weeks in Italy and was the first time we could not take Chifli with us. Chifli has stayed with pet sitters for a night here and there but we were never to far. I was so nervous, but Vincent helped me leave with confidence that Chifli would be loved and cared for and that he was! Vincent would send us pictures or videos daily so I can continue to enjoy my vacation and know that he was enjoying his stay also with Vincent. Thank you Vincent!”
“Stacy and her family are the best! Our slightly nervous dog is clearly comfortable with them, which means so much. They were great when she got scared during recent thunderstorm, and we appreciate the consistent updates. Thank you!”
“Mariel and her family were lovely. We received daily updates with pictures and videos. They took Remy on all sorts of fun adventures, entertained him with new toys and gave him lots of snuggles. Our pup is our baby and we would happily use Mariel again in the future.”
“Kimberly was a great sitter! I was nervous to leave my dog for the first time but she put any fears at ease. She was communicative and it’s obvious our pup had a blast!”
“Michelle was amazing!! We had a family emergency where we needed a dog sitter ASAP. Michelle was very responsive and promptly accepted our request with open arms with no hesitation. Michelle and family were very welcoming! During our doggo’s stay, Michelle updated me constantly with adorable pictures and videos of the ample play and generous green space that Blaze enjoyed at Michelle’s property!! Blaze made plenty of friends and had a blast. Thank you Michelle and family!”
“Amie is absolutely wonderful (as is her mom)! Moxie had such a good week while we were away. Amie and her mom are true animal lovers, you can tell upon meeting them that they are just happy to have a pet to love on for a while. Amie is very communicative and provides lots of photos which is so comforting when you're missing your furry family member!”
“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!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - West Springfield
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.
I had such a positive experience with Jessica. She kindly accepted Shanti on very short notice, and from the moment I dropped him off, I felt he was in caring hands. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which made being away from him so much easier. Jessica was attentive, communicative, and flexible, including accommodating our drop off/pickup time. Shanti came home calm, happy, and very much himself, which is always the best sign that he was comfortable during his stay. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jessica again. Thank you for taking such good care of my boy! 🐾
This is Ato's first time stay with Amanda and he absolutely loved staying with her. Not only did Amanda updated me with daily pictures and comments, but she also accommodated Ato's every need. Ato is a very shy dog, but the fact that he allowed Amanda to give him belly rubs says it all. I will definitely have Amanda in mind whenever I need a dogsitter in the future.
I am so thankful for the abundance of amazing energy that LuLu received during her stay. Constant communication, updates, photos, warm greeting, questions and care at drop off, were all apart of our first experience. I will surely rebook and be a returning satisfied customer.
Last minute I needed a new booking (16 hrs before my out of town vacation) Daniela and her family stepped in and I couldn’t be happier! My spitfire had an amazing time and was so comfortable. Georgie can be a handful and they stepped up and provided her the best week! I am happy to use them again on my next trip!

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 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 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.
