Aj S.

“I had a great experience with this dog walker! They were incredibly kind and patient with my senior dog Max, who’s 11 years old and moves at his own pace. It was clear they really cared—after the walk, they made sure Max had water and was comfortable before leaving. I really appreciate the extra attention to detail and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and gentle with older dogs.”

Serina D.

“Masha is a great dog walker. Great with humans (reliable, punctual, and polite) and great with dogs (affectionate, and conscious of their needs, but firm when necessary). She walked my daughter’s dog for a month, while my daughter was recovering from a car crash. We would definitely call her again.”

Megan M.

“Melissa really came through for Mary and I, very available and accommodating to our care needs and schedule. She has communicated promptly and thoroughly, and most importantly Mary was really well cared for and happy to have made a new friend :)”

About: My husband and I have lived in and near around Champaign for 6 years. We have 3 cats together, Max, Little Miss and Bella. We also have a red Golden Retriever, Archie. I love taking dogs outside on walks/runs and playing fetch. I also like the challenge of teaching new tricks to dogs as I've been able to teach and maintain the basic tricks that dog owners prefer with the appropriate amount of time. Cats can be some of the most interesting creatures out there. So, I love to hangout inside with the cats and cuddle or play with them. I worked at Pet Supplies Plus for almost 2 years. Most recently, I'm a Veterinary Assistant for 4 years. So, I have experience with all types of animals and veterinary care. I'm currently not working. So, I've got plenty of time to hangout and play with your furry ones.! Currently, I cannot offer overnight, unfortunately. As, I'm a pet owner myself. However, I'm glad to pop in for a while throughout the day. I will always keep your dog on leash (I prefer harness. As it does not pull on their necks) if there is no fenced in yard available. Even if there is a fenced in yard, I like to watch them to make sure they don't get out of the yard or get into something they shouldn't.

“Abigail is very sweet and made the process easy with fast and consistent communication. My dogs took to her immediately during the meet and great and she has since taken my dogs on walks. Will definitely use her again.”

Megan D.

“We needed help with our pup last minute and Misty was quick to respond and willing to work with our schedule. During the meet and greet I could tell she was very comfortable with animals as well as knowledgable. Overall Misty was amazing to work with and I felt at ease knowing our fur baby was in good hands.”

“Esther is an excellent dog walker! She is thoughtful, respectful and loves our dog. We are very pleased with her and will continue to use her services.”

About: I have been around animals my whole life but professionally just over 3 years! As a college student on break I have an extremely flexible schedule to dedicate to your pups needs!! I have a yellow lab name named bailey which is my absolute world! With professional experience working in a kennel that includes, I cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m trained in grooming, recognizing early signs of health issues, and handling medications confidently and safely. I know how to stay calm under pressure and respond quickly in case of an emergency. I’m also familiar with maintaining training routines. especially with working dogs, as my own dog Bailey is a trained hunting dog. I’ll make sure your pup is well cared for, both physically and mentally, just like I would for my own. As I have mentioned previously, I am currently still on summer break before college and have recently left my kennel job this past week so I will have ample time to take care of your fur baby! My schedule is currently available all day! I care for pets with the same attention and love I give my own dog, making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable at all times. I follow any routine you provide, including feeding, walks, playtime, training, and medications. I understand that routines are important as it comes to making them feel safe and a constant when you are away! (My dog bailey has a strict routine so I get this!) When it comes to your home, I treat it with complete respect and care! Keeping things the same as it was left, secure, and following any house rules you share. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel totally at ease while you're away and stress free!

I provide compassionate care to your pets in and out of the house.

About: I've been raised with all kinds of dogs since I was young, from Pomeranian to Rhodesian Ridgebacks. I'm familiar with puppy behaviors, as well as care for elderly dogs. My days off are Monday & Tuesdays to give me plenty of time to care and play with your pets in the early mornings to overnights. Otherwise I currently work in the community Thurs-Sun 8am-5pm with Wednesdays being 12-5, though I'm able to step away for any walks, drop-ins, or play times needed! Please reach out with any scheduling requests and I'll do my best to accommodate for you! I prefer crate trained pets, much like my own, but I'm comfortable being around free roam and cuddly buddies! If given enough time in advance, I would love to meet your pet beforehand to ensure a comfortable and informative visit for the both of us.

About: I grew up with dogs in my home, they became apart of the family. I’ve had 7 dogs of many breeds throughout my life, so taking care of them has become second nature. I start my day pretty early at 5am. My job is flexible so I can accommodate puppies or older dogs that may need more frequent potty breaks. I have a 2 year old dog myself that loves to play with other dogs. All dogs are leashes before the door opens for walks for everyone’s safety.

About: Instagram— stays_with_rose . Growing up I had many outdoor dogs and cats, one indoor dog being a senior pug. Once I separated from the military I got my first indoor cat, a medium hair American Tabby. Then a couple years ago I adopted a puppy and signed him up for training classes however due to COVID, those classes got canceled and I did all the training myself. It was a blessing though because after doing so much research, not only did I learn how to train a dog, but I also learned behavioral signs and can apply that knowledge to other dogs in the community. I am not a licensed trainer but can share what I learned if asked. I have been watching other dogs (family and friends) since I was in high school and into adulthood dealing with many different breeds and medical issues. I do love all animals though and am willing to watch more than just dogs and cats if requested. PLEASE READ ABOUT MY SCHEDULE **PLEASE READ** I work full time, if you're needing your pup or cat watched during the week then you must know I won't be home full time. Because I work full time, your pet will most likely be kenneled during that time unless they are nondestructive and can be left free in the house. I walk my dog and other clients dogs at least once every day and we have a few hours of playtime as well. On weekends, my time is devoted the animals, we go on at least 2 walks daily and play on and off throughout the day. Walks: Weekdays I can provide a walk when I'm off work at 430pm and on the Weekends I can provide walks usually at any time depending on other clients. Drop In Visits: Weekends: any time, M-F: 630-730am or 5-530pm or later While I do not have a fenced in yard, I do have a lead that my dogs get hooked up to and they get taken for many walks. I do not use chemicals in my yard or have toxic plants in the area. I have a second living room that has all the dogs toys and kennels. Pets are allowed on the furniture in my home and would most likely sleep in the bedroom. My dog sleeps on my bed but I know not all dogs like that so I do have a dog bed in my bedroom as an option as well. Cats have their own bedroom. Cats tend to be very picky about their environment, so my spare bedroom has been transformed into a cat room. I have scratching posts or cat trees throughout my home to offer the cats options. I understand how stressful it can be leaving your loved pet with others, and I understand how expensive it can be as well. I'm open to negotiations if you're in a tight spot.

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs all my life. I understand the needs and wants of a pet parent well. I’ll care for your fur babies like they’re my own 💛🐶 I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of free time to meet and play with new pups! Monday and Tuesday I have open availability and Wednesday-Sunday most weeks I will have morning/afternoon availability. Due to my own pack of fur babies at home, I only offer services in your home, so I’m open to whatever you need in your environment!

About: I’ve taken care of PAWZ every since I was 10 years old. My family had four kittens around that time of age and I took the lead role into making sure they’re daily activity was met. I’ve also dog sat in the past few years while being a student on UIUC campus. I like to go for walks, car rides, or sitting on the balcony on a nice sunny day, so if your furry friend needs a pet sitter of interest please reach out to me. Im currently a student at University of Illinois UC and I work part time. Most of this time is during the day, but this is also negotiable . I love playing in and out doors with our friends in the yard or in the living room etc, while following your pet/home care instructions.

About: I love animals and have many years of experience with pet sitting including drops ins and overnight pet/house sitting. I have a soft spot for golden retrievers and tabby cats, but am happy to care for animals of all kinds. I work remote and have a flexible schedule that allows for week-day pet care at your convenience. No worries about your pet’s internal “feed me” clock, as I can typically work around their schedules. I am very laid back, patient, and trustworthy. Getting to know your pets and earning their trust to ensure that they feel safe and comforted is a priority.
