Top rated Champaign doggy day care sitters

“Annadel and Jose were great hosts! My dog had a great time and I received videos of her playing as well as updates. They were also responded quickly to messages. I highly recommend and would certainly use them in the future.”


“Feiran is great! We have taken Milo 2 times when we needed a last minute sitter and she was so flexible with everything! Milo always arrives and leaves happy! She sends us videos and photos to keep us updated. We love it. He's definitely going back. Highly recommend!”


“Caitlin is AMAZING!!!! She went above and beyond to make sure our shy 4 mo old pup felt welcome and loved in her home! She took him on multiple walks while he was there and even had him on a walk right before we arrived so he would have pottied when we got there for our drive home!!! She sent me so many pictures throughout the day of all the fun things he was doing and cuddles he was receiving! She was so thorough on pup’s report card letting us know how many times he went potty, when he ate, and how long the walks were! I could go on and on about how amazing she is! I would leave my pup with her in a heart beat and we will be going back!!!! Thank you Caitlin! ❤️❤️❤️”


“Rae took our pup on Thanksgiving day, and we had a great experience! She was very responsive and flexible, sent numerous adorable picture and video updates throughout the day, and made sure he got plenty of walks! Our dog, who can be anxious around new people, seemed to really enjoy his time at Rae’s house! Highly recommend Rae!”


“I could say many positive things but I think my puppy said it the best, since when I went to pick him up he wanted to stay and play with his new friends. That to me says it all. If a dog loves a place you know they were treated great.”


“Abri and Justin are amazing. They’re flexible, have fast response times and take such great care of Sadie - my 1.5 year-old, very energetic, rescue hound mix. Sadie spends one day a week with Abri, Justin, and their two dogs and always sleeps soundly on the car ride home. Every week, Abri takes the time to write up a summary of Sadie’s day and shares photos. I love knowing that Sadie is safe and having fun while I’m in the office.”


“Serina watched my dog while I was at work for the day and it was so helpful to be receiving consistent photos and updates, but be able to not worry about my pup at all. I know she’s in good hands with Serina and I will definitely be booking her again.”


“Anne and Preethi did an excellent job caring for our dog, Mowgli! We needed a sitter that could take him on short notice, and they came through. Very easy to communicate with, and provided updates with photos. When we picked him up he seemed very happy and comfortable. Highly recommend!”

“Ryan was our first time using Rover and he was awesome! Our silken windhound Maverick loved playing with his border collies. I loved getting updates with pictures of them playing together. It’s so hard to find someone who will do daycare for a non-neutered show dog, even when they have zero behavioral problems. 100% recommend Ryan if you want your pup to have a great day!”


About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 10. My family has always had dogs in our home in Argentina and made sure street dogs were fed, and in good health. I'm currently a middle school teacher in the area and I love enjoying my free time with animals 💕. I will make sure your furry loved one is well taken care of while you are away. I will take care of your furry family member as if he or she was mine. I genuinely hope that you feel comfortable and happy with my service.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters? I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether it’s a slow walk for an older pup or high-energy playtime for a young one, I meet animals where they are. I have two dogs of my own—Theo and Sage—so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. Beyond personal experience, I have a BA in animal science and I’m currently in the process of earning my master’s degree in Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication, with a focus on companion animals. I also work as an assistant educator, so I bring a calm, thoughtful approach to every visit. I’m confident administering medications, caring for nervous or senior pets, and yes—I genuinely don’t mind deep-cleaning litter boxes. I treat every animal like family, with patience, care, and a whole lot of love I’m currently working mostly remote with few days in the classroom as a Teacher assistant. Whether it’s morning walks, meal times, or evening play sessions, I’m used to planning my day around pets’ needs. I live in a three-story townhouse with plenty of space for pets to feel comfortable—whether they want to play or have their own quiet area. My own dogs are super friendly, but I can easily keep pets separate if needed. I also have some dog training experience, so I’m confident handling different temperaments and routines. Your pet will be safe, loved, and well cared for here or in your home!

About: I have experiences taking care of both domestic animals and exotic animals from my time working at the zoo. I also have experience taking care of animals of a wide variety of ages, from raising animals from since they were pups to elderly. I also volunteered in my free time at a cat shelter, frequently feeding, cleaning and even administering medicine for the sick kitties. I am currently a high school graduate looking to fill my summer with loving animals. I am free all summer until August 23rd, I can work overnight, on weekends and holidays! I live in an apartment with my orange kitty and other family members so your pet will very socialized. While I live in an apartment, the apartment is super pet friendly with many residents owning pets. There is also a park right next to the apartment with direct entrance so I can easily take your pet outside.

About: I have been surrounded by dogs my whole life and currently have two dogs of my own that we got as puppies and trained ourselves. Additionally, I'm an animal science major at the University of Illinois, which has further fueled my passion for animals, especially dogs. What sets me apart from other sitters and walkers is my lifelong experience with dogs combined with my academic background. Your furry friends will not only get lots of love, belly rubs, and long walks but they'll also benefit from my commitment to their well-being and happiness away from their owners! I currently have a part-time job, so I have time to play and be with your pets! I would love to spend most of my free time walking or house sitting! it all depends on my schedule for the week:) Caring for pets in my home revolves around creating a safe, loving, and engaging environment. With two friendly dogs of my own to keep your dog company, your furry friend will always have a buddy to play with. While I don't have a fenced-in yard, I make up for it with long, enjoyable walks to ensure they get plenty of exercise and fresh air. My home is already pet-proofed with secure areas, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment. I could also accommodate other needs, whether it’s crating your dog or adhering to particular routines. Ensuring animals are fed on schedule and always have access to fresh water is also a top priority. I am always watching and being mindful of what the pets are doing, ensuring their safety and well-being at all times. My goal is to provide a trustworthy and nurturing environment where your pet feels right at home.

About: Hi there! I’m Masha — a 28-year-old USMC veteran with a huge heart for animals. I’ve been caring for pets through Rover for several years now and have built lasting connections with so many amazing clients (both human and furry!). Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. From daily dog walks and overnight stays to giving medications and spending quality time with shy pets, I’ve done it all. I understand that every pet has their own personality and quirks, and I always take the time to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet parents often tell me how much they appreciate my reliability, communication, and the genuine care I give their pets. I have a solid track record on Rover with tons of glowing reviews, repeat bookings, and a five-star rating that I’m really proud of. I’m punctual, respectful, and have my own transportation, so you can count on me to show up and give your pet the attention they deserve. Whether you’re heading out of town or just need some extra help during the day, I’m here to make things easier for both you and your fur baby. Can’t wait to meet you both! Im available during most days since I currently work evenings. My schedule is flexible and I will communicate if something doesn’t fit my schedule. 😊 I always ask for specific care instructions because all animals are different and always ask questions if I don’t understand something. I also send hourly updates and pictures.

About: I have lived and worked with dogs most of my life. I pay close attention to the instructions of pet parents and place great emphasis on fluid communication with the dogs and cats with whom I have the privilege to work. I meet every animal where they are, treating each with respect and dignity. I’m reliable, clear, calm, knowledgeable and adaptable. I currently work remotely as director and training supervisor of a small nonprofit service dog training agency. This allows for quite a bit of flexibility in scheduling. I always prioritize the safety of the animals I care for, along with consistency, respect and compassion. Whether in a client’s home or outdoors, I create routines tailored to the wishes of each client and their pets, always maintaining environmental awareness and ensuring pets are comfortable and secure. My goal is always to provide professional, dependable care that supports both the pet’s well-being and the client’s peace of mind.

About: Hi! My name is Marissa. I’ve been caring for dogs for 11 years—starting with puppies at age 14. I have experience with all ages, including senior dogs needing extra patience, comfort, and medications. I’m reliable, gentle, and treat every dog like family. Whether it’s playful walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, your pup will be safe, loved, and well-cared for with me! I also have experience in feeding, handling and caring for bearded dragons. I’m a part-time hairstylist with a flexible schedule! I’m available for overnight care after 4 PM Tuesday–Saturday, and fully open on Sundays and Mondays (my weekend). I can also occasionally fit in midday walks, drop-ins, or medication visits between appointments during the week—just reach out to check! Your pet’s care always comes first. 🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment with no other animals in the home—perfect for pets who need one-on-one attention. I understand how much your furry family member means to you, especially after recently losing my own beloved dog. I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and care I gave my own, ensuring they feel safe, secure, and right at home. I also have a pet car seat and stroller holding up to 30lbs to ensure the most comfortably and safety for your fur baby.

About: I adopted Hanson, a retired guide dog, and he’s now an angel in heaven. He showed me how deep the bond with a dog can be and is the reason I started caring for pets. Over the years, I’ve looked after many dogs for friends and family. I give them lots of love and attention, and every pet I’ve cared for has grown really close to me. I treat each one like they’re my own. Pet care is part of my everyday life. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just spending quality time with them, caring for animals is something I naturally make time for. It’s not just a task—it’s something I truly enjoy and look forward to each day. I live alone, so pets get my full attention and a quiet, calm space to relax in. I make sure they feel safe and comfortable—whether that’s sticking to their routine, giving lots of playtime and cuddles, or just being nearby so they don’t feel alone. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow any instructions closely to keep things familiar for their pet.

I treat every dog like family, because they are! I’m usually busy on weekends, either spending time with family or friends. If weekends are needed, don’t hesitate to ask! I can open up those days. I prefer mornings or afternoon, but I’m flexible overall. I’m very aware of my surroundings at all times and will keep a close eye on your fur baby! I can be very energetic and playful if that’s what your pet likes. I can also be calm and comforting. Every pet is different and I’m very happy to cater to them in any way they need.
