About: Ive been around dogs a lot. I have 3 of my own. One named Hope. She’s more active, and needs alot of playtime. So I’m definitely good at managing that. One name is Oakley, he likes to be babied and cuddled. Ones name is Hank, and he is just the chillest dog haha. I already have dogs so I work 24/7 with my own. I have a lot of time on my hands so I’m free whenever. Anytime you just need a break I can come help, when you’re gone. I’ll do it. I give baths, I walk them, I play ball/fetch with them. I take them potty, feed them, give them treats. I do all the things it takes to take care of a dog, the same way you would treat a baby.

“Rebecca is friendly and was interested in our animals.”

About: As a proud owner of three lively Australian Cattle Dogs, I live and breathe dog energy every day. My passion for dogs (and cats too!) drives me to provide reliable walks, playtime, and check-ins that keep pets happy and healthy. With my own high-drive pack, I'm equipped to handle all breeds, sizes, and temperaments while ensuring lots of fun and exercise. Why Choose Me My home is a dog haven where my three Aussies thrive, so I know how to match routines and personalities. Expect updates with photos after every visit, plus a fenced yard (if applicable) and safe, loving care. Pet parents love my reliability and the wagging tails that follow! My schedule is very flexible. I schedule my own hours, so I am available when you need the right care for your pups to continue their routine! I provide all pet care services directly in your home for a stress-free experience. This includes energetic dog walks around familiar neighborhoods, drop-in check-ins with playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and medication administration right where your pets feel most comfortable. My approach with cats focuses on gentle interaction, litter maintenance, and cozy companionship without overwhelming them.

“Thanks again for taking care of Elle on such short notice! ALWAYS a quick response and VERY reliable. Misty is ALWAYS VERY patient with Elle.”

About: Greetings! First - thank you for considering me and my services. I have been a pet owner all my life, and have been the proud parent of hamsters, fish, cats, dogs, and a rabbit! I'm also a responsible house sitter, having been both a homeowner and a renter, I understand the value of not just your pets, but your possessions, your mail and plants, the cozy space of your home, the relationships with your neighbors. I have provided these services for friends and families for most of my life. I have always loved animals and I have always owned pets, been a member of dog parks and puppy play groups, and I volunteered for the Champaign Humane Society for many years. I have also had pets with medication needs, so I am experienced in that area. For years I also groomed my own dogs, and I know that each pet has its own needs, preferences, and personalities. Finally, I recently lost my dog of 15 years, and although I now live somewhere that does not allow pets, I need animals in my life! From my own experience of being a Rover customer for many years, I also know how important it is to pet sit within your home with no disruption to your pet's routine or surroundings. I'm retired, so I can be flexible with your scheduling needs for both your pets and your home. I'm both an early riser and a night owl, so whatever works for you also works for me! I have been both a renter and homeowner, so I know how valuable your pets are, but also your cozy home, your plants, mail, and relationships with your neighbors. I have owned a bunny, hamsters, cats and dogs. But I also have an affinity for birds and reptiles. I have provided services for friends and family most of my life, now I just want to bring in a bit of extra cash to supplement social security. I'm also mainly a homebody, so if your home or your pets need extra care or a lot of time, I'm fully available.

“Thank you Marci!! Ajani probably hopes I travel again soon!!”

“Amy loves my animals as much as I do. She communicates to clarify as much as she does to confirm. When I leave my dog home alone for a few hours I often get alerts from my Alexa of my dog crying. But I when I left for 3 days with Amy checking on her twice a day - I got NO alerts of Lucy crying. THANK YOU, AMY!!!”

“Madison was excellent. I was a bit nervous as Rascal just began some medications a couple weeks before and we haven't needed pet sitters before, but Madison calmed my nerves and walked me through all the steps she takes as a sitter which was so fantastic. She communicated with us, provided great updates, and Rascal really did well with someone else caring for him. He can be stubborn when eating and she was very patient with him!! Highly recommend.”

“Megan was on time and sent photos to keep me updated! Would book again”

About: I’ve had all breeds and types of dogs throughout my life. Currently own an epileptic Dalmatian. Love my pups as if they are my children. I work full time at U of I but could come by before and/or after work Monday through Friday, and available anytime on Sundays and some Saturdays. I have a fenced in back yard with three pups and one cat. We go on walks and all live inside with us. Our pets are like our children very spoiled.

“My cat Fig loved her time with Anj, and I loved knowing she was getting lots of playtime, pets, and her food and water taken care of. Anj sent pictures each time she visited Fig which gave me peace of mind seeing how happy she was, even while I was away for a week.”

“I needed care for my pets while we went out of town. I found Makinzee on Rover, and she took our older dog in for more attentive care, and visited the house once a day to check on our more self reliant animals. She did a great job, and Id definitely book her again!”

About: I love my dog (10years; Hiro) and I will treat yours as my own. From 24/7 all around care and attention: Diet, exercise, interactive play, traveling included, bathing/grooming, and medical care. All injuries are researched and attended too with remedies at home and if required, vet visit. Vet visit only with consent, if required. Contact me as needed, messaging/pictures will be provided. Food, potty needs, bedding/crate is taken care of. Advised: if special needs food/allergy/attention, please bring what your animal needs with them, extra charges will apply (if I have to go to the store, I will have a receipt) Daily. Hiro follows me everywhere. Hiro is my own dog, he’s a golden retriever mix with Great Pyrenees, he’s picky about when he eats his own food. I expect your dog and or cat will be different and have its own personality. As for how your animal fits into my daily will depend on how it goes. Most animals love me, knock on wood. I will keep you posted the whole time. The first time I had Hiro boarded I requested a video. It’s understandable. Your pets are like children. Crate training and potty training provided, if needed. Will need dog paddings. I love my dog and I will love yours as my own, depending on what your dog needs, we can manage and arrange things.

“Jessica was wonderful with Sunny my reactive Pitbull and Willow my very friendly cat. I’ve booked her for several more visits. She was responsive, polite, friendly and clearly loves animals. I am excited to continue to work with her.”

About: I have experience with a variety of breeds of dogs. I have owned dogs that are super high maintenance, dogs that love to lounge, anxiety ridden dogs, and dogs that are on the spicy side. I understand the different cues of dogs and how to read their body language. I have experience in walking multiple dogs. I also have experience in training dogs. I trained my Shetland Sheepdog for 4H and we made it to the state fair. I also taught him many silly tricks. I can be a professional fetch player or a professional cuddler, whichever your dog prefers. I can also just be a treat giver if your dog prefers space. I am currently working part time as a server, but my schedule is very flexible. I am a recently graduated college student, with the hopes of going to graduate school in the coming semester. Animal trust is very important to me. It is important that I earn you and your animals trust, and we can grow to be best friends or acquaintances if your animal is not into that. I hope to make your time away from your animal as easy as possible.

About: I own several animals which include cats, dogs, and a leopard gecko. I love animals, and I am good with feeding on time, bathroom breaks on time, and I love to spend quality time with animals! I am good with puppy and kitten care as well. I am a house cleaner as well, so it tends to mix in with the pet care. I am consistently taking care of myself, my house, and my animals. I walk my dog every day, I feed all of my animals at the same time every day, I keep regular vet appointments, and all of my animals are up to date on their vaccines and spay/neutering.
