“We love booking Emily and her husband to take care of our cat Lola whenever we travel. They are always punctual, and make sure they spend lots of time giving her attention. When we come home, Lola is in great spirits!”

“Adelina is an angel! My husband and I had to travel last minute for a funeral & she came to take care of our reluctant put & two cats. Our dog warmed up to her almost immediately & loved spending time with Adelina! She sent lots of pictures and updates & eased all of my anxieties about leaving our animals behind. I highly recommend booking Adelina to look after your fur babies <3”
“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!”

“Very happy with Sarah's service. She consistently showed up on time, took excellent care of our three cats, and even brought in our packages without any fuss. Communication was great, and she did exactly what we needed. We would definitely use her services again!”


About: In addition to being an approved foster home for Homeward Trails Animal Rescue, I've cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, and one very cute hamster throughout my 48 years. After both of my senior rescue pups passed away from old age during Covid, I've really missed having a furry companion running around. I'm not quite ready to have my own pet full-time again but enjoy caring for others' furry friends between foster pups. Open to full day, evenings, or weekends. Seniors have a special place in my heart and are always welcome. I am very experienced with those that have special needs or medicines. I do ask that all pets are kid friendly as I have a 10 year old "trainer" that comes with me and really enjoys reading to the pups at bedtime. Though my son will keep his distance from dogs that are skittish, we want a safe and calm place for both the pet and child to stay when they're in our home. For stays in our home, especially those last minute needs, we have beds, crates, bowls, toys, and even various types of emergency food just in case. We're who you need in a pinch or if your flight is delayed on the way home. Boarding in our home always comes with multiple walks a day and often a fun adventure and patio time! Working from home makes flexible pick up and drop off scheduling a breeze for pups staying with me! I look forward to making your pet part of our family while you're away. Be sure to let me know if they'd enjoy the park and long walks or prefer a more laid back stay with extra cuddles or space to decompress and we'll adjust. We sit for many families in our neighborhood and several prior dogs have walked with us to and from school (Hi Georgie!)... while others have napped most of the day away. (Hi Duke, Lana, and Mimi, I'm looking at you!) Need me to pick up to make it easier to head out of town? Or deliver once you're home? I gotcha! I have a small fenced in yard and lots of open green space out back to keep your pup busy! Does your pet prefer a walk around the neighborhood? We'll show them around around and where the best town "gossip" is located. Our "fur-iends" who visit love to check their "pee-mails" and we know all the great spots. Have a well behaved pooch? Your pet will always have free range of my home, if they're most comfortable contained near their humans I can close off doors and block off stairs! We even have extra floor coverings for those a little older that appreciate extra traction when walking. Does the pup like crates better at night, just let me know and I'll follow your routine! We have a couple med/lg sized ones here I keep on hand, in case they're needed. I usually keep the doors off so they can use it as a safe place whenever they'd like unless mom or dad prefers otherwise! Safety is incredibly important to us so all animals will stay leashed outside and I have a 2 pet limit set on Rover so things stay calm and we have plenty of scratchies & snuggle time with the dogs who like to hang out with humans. Have a senior pup who wants to hide somewhere quiet? There's plenty of great hiding spots and we'll tote a bed over to their new favorite spot to keep them comfy.
“Dionisia is a great pet care taker . She is very good and patient with handling dogs with anxiety like mine and I can tell my dog loved her as well. She send photos and always communicated very well with me. I 100% trust and recommend her for anyone who may want to book with her !”


“Angela has been an absolutely wonderful cat sitter. She is reliable, always punctual, and clearly genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. During every visit, she kept us updated with thoughtful messages and great pictures, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was so reassuring to see our cat happy, comfortable, and well cared for in her hands. We truly appreciated her professionalism, communication, and attention to detail. We would highly recommend Angela to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.”

“We have used Cassie a couple times now and will continue to book walks with her! She is very punctual and leaves detailed reviews and pictures. I can relax knowing my pups are in good hands with her!”

About: I have always grown up with dogs in my family.In addition to helping train and take care of family & friends dogs. I work a job Tuesday through Friday so i am only available after work for walks on weekdays but i am available anytime of weekends. I have always loved dogs. I currently have a cockapoo puppy that i am training to one day be a service animal. However, when I am in town, I would love nothing more than to care for your pet and take them for walks around the neighborhood. I work full time so i am only available to walk in the evening on weekdays . But i am available anytime on the weekends (Saturday- Sunday). I have one friendly dog to keep your dog company with a little patio. I have place in the house to crate train to separate when necessary.
About: Hello, my name is Youngri. I started pet sitting several years ago to teach my 3 kids responsibility and to save money to buy a Nintendo Switch. Ever since, my kids and I have been watching dogs periodically. Even though I am the one who primarily takes care of the customer's dog, my kids love to help out and play with our new furry friends. My kids and I are also open to watching pets other than dogs or cats, such as birds, rabbits or guinea pigs. Fyi, my kids will not watch your pet without adult supervision. If your pet needs to be with me 100%, please let me know ahead. To prevent any inconvenience, dogs can be kept in a crate when it's only necessary. If your dog doesn't like being in a crate, that's fine. Just let me know ahead. I walk dogs at least once a day. Please message me for details if you are interested. I take lots of pictures throughout the day and send them to owners to show how their pets are doing. If your dog is not fully potty trained sorry but I cannot watch your dog. I will walk dogs at least once a day and let them use the backyard as much as needed. I have a fenced yard to ensure their safety.

About: One of my favorite experiences in college was helping care for my roommate’s puppy during my senior year. While my roommate was away, I had the opportunity to look after her, take her on walks, play with her, and watch her grow. Spending time with her quickly became one of the highlights of my college experience and deepened my love for caring for animals! Since then, I’ve continued to spend plenty of time around the pets of family and friends, whether that means going on walks, keeping them entertained, providing companionship, or making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. My goal is to make every pet feel happy, cared for, and right at home, even when their favorite person is away. I’m attentive, patient, and always happy to give pets the time, affection, and care they deserve. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having someone around, I’d love to help! I look forward to meeting you and your furry best friend! I currently work a 9–5, but I’m available for early morning visits from 6–7:30 AM, as well as evenings and weekends. I’m happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they deserve! I love taking dogs on walks, getting them fresh air and exercise, and making sure they feel safe and cared for. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being will always be my top priorities.
About: I have years of experience caring for both dogs and cats, including care of my family’s dog for over 16 years. I treat every pet like family and understand the importance of routines, safety, and comfort. From fun walks and playtime to knowing what pets can and can’t eat—and plenty of belly rubs—I provide attentive, loving care. When I’m with your pet, they have my full attention so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m patient, trustworthy, and someone you can rely on to care for your dog or cat while you’re away. I work from home, which allows me to easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. I’m able to give pets consistent attention throughout the day, including walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins, rather than leaving them alone for long periods. Because I’m home, I can closely monitor their comfort, routines, and needs and make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for. I provide attentive, loving care whether pets are in my home or in a client’s home. I live in a townhouse with a fenced backyard where pets can safely go outside, play, and relax. I also have access to a nearby large backyard for additional space and supervised playtime when appropriate. In a client’s home, I follow their routines closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and stress-free by maintaining consistency and giving them my full attention.

“Seth was absolutely amazing! The constant communication and the daily pictures and videos he sent make you very comfortable. When I came home everything was clean for my cat and left the place just like how we left it. I would definitely recommend Seth as I will be booking him more for the future”

About: I love animals and understand how hard it can be to find someone you trust with your own. I have 40 years of experience owning and nurturing dogs, and cats. I would love the chance to help care for your 4 legged children when needed. Currently I work weekends at a brewery, so I am available to walk your dog while you work M-F. Please feel free to contact me with any questions 🙂 I have 4 cats, a bunny and a 55 gallon fish tank currently. I love walking and caring for dogs but all animals are available for care with my services.

About: I used to work at Felix and Oscar so if you need any food recommendations, i’m your girl! I also have walked dogs for about 2 years as well as overnight care and drop ins. I just graduated from James Madison University and I am working a part time job so I am available to work mornings and afternoons as well! I have a 1 year old puppy and I take care of him as well as train him. We play, I give treats, and many walks! I also had a puppy throughout all my childhood and he lived to be 16 years old, so i have experience with senior dogs.
About: I’ve been a dog lover and pet owner for years! I have a Labrador who I’ve card for since she was just 8 weeks old, so I have firsthand experience with everything from the puppy stage to caring for an adult dog. I understand the importance of patience, consistency, and plenty of attention, and of course, lots of love. I have also helped care for my neighbor’s dogs while they were away, including taking them on walks and making sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I treat every dog like I would my own and want owners to feel completely comfortable knowing their pet is in caring and attentive hands. I work part-time remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. Since I’m home for much of the day, I’m available for regular walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and lots of companionship. My schedule also gives me flexibility throughout the week, so I can easily work pet care into my routine and make sure each pet gets attention and care they’re used to. My Lab, Holiday, is a very laid back girl, so I’m used to letting dogs settle into a routine that works for their individual personality and energy level. She eats twice a day and gets about four walks throughout the day, with plenty of time to relax and nap in between. When she’s awake and ready to play we spend lots of time together. Her personal version of fetch is seeing how many toys she can collect in her mouth at once, and she loves a good game of tug of war! I like to balance exercise, attention, and downtime, and I’m happy to follow each pet’s normal routine so they feel as comfortable and at home as possible.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - West Springfield
Fabiana was fantastic! She was able to help me out on short notice and made the entire process incredibly easy. She communicated well, followed my instructions, and took great care of Bandit despite it being their first time meeting. She even took him on a walk, got some playtime in, and sent pictures and updates afterward. I really appreciated her flexibility and attention to detail. I’ll definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

Amelia is awesome!!!! Was our first time trying this service and she instantly put us at ease. Kind, caring, and obviously passionate about taking good care of our furry family members. When she stopped by for a meet & greet, they (my 2 enthusiastic big dogs and one nonchalant cat) immediately sensed she was there to engage and play with them and I knew all would be well, and it was!! Already planning her next visit, she’s at the top of our list. (“We love you Amelia!!” - your new best buddies, Kiara, Dakota, and Hunter)
Rachel was the best! She is competent and communicative. It was easy to go out of town because she loved on my dog and sent wonderful photos and fun stories about their adventures! Both my boys are older (13 and almost 15) and one has 3 legs. She was great at keeping my reactive big dog calm and he loved all her cuddles and treats and trips outside! She comforted my small tripod through the thunderstorm and he greatly appreciated her lifting him up onto the couch for snuggles and her carrying him home when he got tired after she let him explore and sniff out all his fave places. Thanks and the boys say woof!

Michelle is absolutely fantastic and took such good care of our boy! She made sure to give him a lot of attention, playtime, and pets. We just moved and our dog is still adjusting, she was very attentive to this fact and definitely helped him have an easy day. Her narratives are so great and really paint the picture of her time with our boy. We would highly recommend Michelle!

Rydia watched our older cat Dave for a week while we were out of town. We don't leave her very often because she's older and so it was very nice to have her come in take pictures of him and keep us updated as to how Dave is doing and it just gave us peace of mind that we knew our cat was being well taken care of while we were gone

Kerry took such great care of our little girl while we were away. She’s very patient with shy kitties, but was able to work her magic and get our girl out. I appreciate her communication and willingness to help bring in packages. Kerry really went above and beyond to help us out when a large delivery arrived ahead of schedule. We will absolutely book Kerry again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in West Springfield is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $37 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 October 2026, there are 15,388 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
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 .
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.

- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 93% can help with daily exercise

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 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
