About: Hi, I’m Aubri! I’m a college student here in Springfield. I am actually studying to become a veterinarian. However if you know anything about vet school you know if can be pricey! That’s why I am looking to make some extra money on Rover! I have been around all types of animals all my life and would love the chance to come help you with yours! My grandparents own a farm so I have grown up watching animals of all sizes. I also have 3 cats and a boxer around me constantly! I am currently a student so I have plenty of time to play with and watch all of your animals! I am available all morning and most of the afternoon as I take night classes so I’ll be able to watch your pups or take them out to walk while you are at work! I will take care of your baby like he/she is my own. All animals have my heart so I take being in charge of them very seriously. Pleas know that your animal(s) will be cared for when i’m around!
“Kayla was fantastic! She took great care of my kitty and his needs. Kayla also sent me updates every day I was gone. Will definitely use her again! Thank you Kayla!!!”
“Taylor was great! She took great care of our little teenager (cat). He normally keeps to himself but he liked Taylor so much he showed his belly, always greeted her, etc. We will definitely be booking Taylor for future pet visits if she is free and would recommend her to anyone :).”
“Molly was awesome!! She came to meet the dogs the day before and she was so kind!! We have three dogs and she did amazing with all three!!”
About: I grew up with a dog and have always loved pets and animals of all kinds! When I used to stay with my sister, I would watch her two dogs and take them on walks regularly. I have also watched pets (including dogs, cats, a chicken, gerbils, etc.) for friends over the years. I currently have a very open and flexible schedule! I finished my doctorate program last year and I’ve been studying for my board exams that I need to pass before I can begin practicing acupuncture. I am available most weekdays and weekends! I’m happy to feed, walk, and play with your pet. I have a cat of my own and I know the importance of taking good care of our furry friends! I love both dogs and cats and would be happy to help with either. Detailed instructions and clear communication for care is appreciated.
“Emily was fantastic! She was comfortable giving my cat medicine and sent lots of updates on how Finland was doing. I will definitely use her again!”
About: I grew up with pets and truly understand their needs. I'm loving, hands-on, and always manage my time well to ensure every pet gets the attention they deserve. I'm currently working as teacher full time starting in August. I will be available on weekdays after 4pm. My availability will be open on weekends! I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I’d give my own. I’ll follow your routine closely, keep things clean, and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or cuddles—your pet will be in good hands. I’ll keep litter boxes or outdoor areas clean, give your pet plenty of attention, and keep you updated with photos and messages so you know they’re happy and safe while you're away.
“Taylor is an excellent furbaby caretaker! We're so lucky to have had the opportunity to book with her on a number of occasions. Her notes are thorough and photos show how much care and attention she puts into her visits. Thanks, Taylor! I look forward to booking with you in the future!”
“Laura took such good care of our 3 kitties while we were gone on vacation and sent us pictures of them every time she visited them. I would definitely recommend booking with her and I would trust her to watch our kitties again any time. :D”
“Honestly if I could give her 6 stars, I would. She was SO sweet, so caring and sent me updates with pictures and videos daily and nightly. My pup Archie stayed with Chloe at her home while I was out of town AND she also stopped by my house to care for my cat Siggy. She had no problem with doing a "meet & greet before hand" so I could meet her, see her house, and see how our dogs interacted together since she has some pups too (who both were adorable and sweet btw) - I recently moved here from out to state & was sooo anxious about leaving my pets with a stranger, but as soon as I met Chloe I was instantly calmed. Very kind, very warm, and Archie was comfortable right away, I knew it was a good fit. Archie loved playing with his new friends and even got a nail trim (truly a battle) - when I picked him up I think he was actually more disappointed that he had to leave! LOL. Will 100% use her again. Highly recommend.”
About: I have 5 dogs in my household that I have trained and taken care of when my family goes out of town for soccer, I am more than happy to cater to your babies as well!

“Beka did a wonderful job with my dog. She sent frequent picture updates and made sure he was exercised and well cared for while I was away.”
“I was absolutely adored the brief yet thorough notes Anthony would post on the Rover cards for my two fur babies after each drop-in; as an anxious pet-owner it really kept me at ease and it was nice reading the little adventures they would get up to. I was quite pleasantly shocked as no one had done this before. He even kept the house tidy if there were any accidents or naughty chewed areas. As well as took the initiative to put on some doggie music so they didn’t feel so alone. He was pleasant and professional, yet empathetic and personal all at the same time which I greatly appreciated. Will definitely be using Anthony again in the future and I recommend you do, too!”

“Aubriana is an amazing pet caregiver! She has taken care of my two large dogs for over a year now, and I can't say enough good things about her.

“Margaret has loved animals all her life; she wanted to be a vet dr since she was very young. She’s such a sweetheart with animals & they sense her good heart toward them. Margaret is conscientious of their expressions & body language to make sure they are happy or possibly needing something. She has pet sat for my daughter’s two dogs, Max who is nervous & Rylee who wants a lot of attention. They loved her & are still excited to see her even after not seeing her for a long time. Margaret is so loving & excellent in her care of her cat Neko (& all animals). She would make a great pet sitter. Your pets will be in great hands & Margaret will care for them as if they were her own. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter.”
