We are very happy we used Emily to sit for our cat Lola. Lola is a shy cat, and can have some food-motivated aggression at times, but Emily handled this so well! She sent great pictures and updates every visit that made us feel that Lola was in great hands while we were away. She also left our house in tip-top shape. We would love to book with her again

My experience with Stephanie was wonderful! She was so good with my pets and took great care of them while i was so busy this week! She was a great communicator giving updates, asking questions, and verifying things along the way. I would trust her with my babies anytime!

Marcela was wonderful. We have a very nervous dog and usually takes a few visits before Sadie will warm up to someone, but she warmed right up to Marcela on first visit. She was was on time, sent us pictures with each visit, and was very easy to reach all the time. Loved her! We will definitely be using her again.

Ella was absolutely amazing with my dog Chewbacca over the weekend! She treated my little boy with so much love, care, and respect the entire time. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. Chewbacca was so happy and comfortable with her, and you can truly tell she genuinely loves animals. Communication was great, she was very kind, attentive, and went above and beyond. I will 100% be booking with her again in the future. Highly recommend Ella to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pets!

About: Hey, friends! Welcome to Waggin' & Walkin'. I've had many types of animal family members in my life. From dogs and cats to a ferret and a guinea pig! I've also volunteered at the Rota Animal Welfare League while stationed in Spain. My duties included feeding, cleaning the grounds, and spending time with my furry pals. There's no doubt that your dog will be in great hands. Whether it's feeding them, walking them or simply relaxing with them to ensure they're comfortable, I'll be there when you can't to ensure they're good to go 💯👍. I have a really great schedule which will allow me ample time to take care of your pets needs. My typical work schedule is from 6am-2pm so any time after that I can assist. From walking to pet sitting, I'll ensure they are loved and cared for so you can relax and focus on what you need to do. As of now I plan to perform the following services: Dog walks, Pop-ins and pet sitting at the client's home. I might add Boarding in the future. When you're not home I will do all tasks that you require to ensure your loved pet is nourished, interacted with and feels safe & happy.

Thanks again Hieu and Anna for being so attentive to our pup! Prior to the drop-in, our dog had a stressful experience in the morning that put her on edge for the rest of the day--Hieu and Anna were so great about making sure she felt safe and comfortable. We're so glad to keep working with her new fave aunties!

About: I have worked with dogs for over 10 years. I have trained dogs and worked for two daycares. I know about medications and common injuries prone to popular breeds. I enjoy walking with and interacting with dogs of all sizes. I have plenty of free time to watch and walk dogs whenever needed. I am available any time during the week/weekend that would be needed. Available for emergency walks or sittings if needed. I know how hard it is to leave your pets behind, so I prioritize clear communication and plenty of photo updates. My goal is to make sure your pet is happy, exercised, and showered with affection while you’re away. I provide a structured and safe environment for your animals. I understand that every pet has a unique temperament and specific needs, and I pride myself on being a calm, observant caregiver. I am comfortable administering medication, handling leash-reactive dogs, and maintaining strict feeding schedules. When your pet is with me, their safety and well-being are my absolute top priorities.

David and his family went above and beyond to care for our golden while we were away. It was our first time leaving Hank alone at our house for the weekend so we were filled with nerves. That was until we received the first pictures and rover card for their first visit. It was evident that they made Hank feel comfortable and even excited when they arrived! They popped in for 4 hour-long visits each day, doing two long walks and making sure he was fed, put to sleep, and played with each time. It was wonderful seeing multiple members of the family there with him. If I could give more than 5 stars I would!

We were nervous to leave our 14-year old dog while we traveled out of the country for a week, but David went above and beyond in making us feel comfortable and caring for our dog. David connected easily with our dog, and our dog warmed up to him very quickly. David was always on time and gave us regular detailed updates, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. If we ever need help with our dog again, we will absolutely reach out to David.

About: Having taken care of a precious Springer Spaniel for 14 years (Cocoa), I'll do my best to take care of your dog as if he or she were my own. I'm usually quite responsive when it comes to bookings and arrangements, responding within 15-20 minutes. I'll take them out to play and walk and feed them at least three times a day. I'll also bathe them, if need be. Most importantly, I will be as flexible and accommodating as possible to ensure that your dog will have fun while with me. I currently have open availability in my schedule, so I could most definitely sit your dog full-time if necessary. Above all else, I just love working with dogs as they are my favorite animal.

Yan has taken care of Pepa (our cat) for the third time! She’s simply wonderful. We continue to appreciate the thoughtful updates, photos, and the genuine care. Yan provides us complete peace of mind knowing our cat was not only safe but happy, comfortable, and receiving plenty of attention while we were gone. Coming home to a relaxed, content cat and a spotless feeding and litter area speaks volumes to Yan’s professionalism and dedication. We highly recommend Yan to anyone looking for a reliable, detail-oriented, and compassionate cat sitter.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - West Springfield

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in West Springfield on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 15,659 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across West Springfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a West Springfield stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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.

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

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
