“The second I met Laura I knew I found the right person. Not only is she a great lady, but she genuinely loves animals and my cats were comfortable around her. She was very communicative and kept me in the loop. I will use her for future needs.”


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!

“Thank you! Great pet sitter, came in and hung out with my cat (who usually is very shy but liked Anna) and made sure all of my cat’s needs were taken care of. Very communicative with each visit and responsive when I had requests/questions.”


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.

About: When I was 12 I started walking dogs for my neighbors and the elderly people around my neighborhood, I absolutely love dogs especially big ones! My family always had so many dogs growing up, so I feel very comfortable around pretty much any dog, I feel comfortable bathing and walking and playing any size or type of dog! I currently work in the morning during the week, I usually get off at 2:00pm or earlier. I am free almost every weekend, and any weekday after 2:00pm at the latest I currently do not have any dogs, but I do have three cats and other types of small pets and lizards. When I am watching over your fur baby I will treat them as my own, and give them a fun time with lots of play and attention, while still following the parents requests. This is the first time I’ve lived in a home without a dog so I would love to be able to spend some time with your fur baby!

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.

“Lisa was a fabulous caregiver for my cat, Rizzo! She is a loving and caring person and went above and beyond the perimeters of our engagement and spent extra time with him, bought him toys, and watched over my house and watered flowers too in my absence. I highly recommend her for any pet care or house sitting or both.”


“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!”
