“Mage is a very kind and considerate sitter. I missed my girl’s birthday, and Mage sang happy birthday to her for me!! Mage also always sends update photos, and follows all of my babies’ preferences to the T. Could not recommend more highly.”
“Misty was great, very happy to have her checking in on my boys. She was great at communicating, updating me and took awesome pictures. She dropped by, played with then and gave them treats.”
“Rose was absolutely amazing with Hazel! She was super understanding and flexible about timing and was able to pick up and drop Hazel off. She sent lots of adorable pictures and updates, and was really intentional about how she organized the animals in her care, so that they all felt comfortable. I could tell that Hazel had a really great week, thank you so much Rose!”
About: I have had both dogs and cats my entire life and don't want to be without them ! My Husky Sharpei mix, Lily passed away in 2021 after 16 years of a long healthy life. It was a hard loss, so I started spending time with other people's pets and decided to turn it into a career. Through the years of petsitting i have learned alot about different animal personalities and i have gained experience with different levels of care. Some of the pets i have watched suffered from high separation anxiety, and have special needs. I have experience giving diabetic shots, administering oral medication, and topical oitments on cats and dogs. I have experience with extended stays, my longest so far being a month. I also have experience watching multiple dogs and cats. I have watched reactive dogs in the past and I am comfortable doing so if i know their triggers. I’m currently working full time. I am available every 4 hours if you live close to Downtown Champaign. I am also willing to travel within a 40 mile radius to pet sit, but will not be able to drop in if you are far from downtown Champaign Once your gone I pretty much resume your role, while pet care is a priority I still clean up after myself so you won't have to worry about coming into a messy home. Cats and dogs love to cuddle with me on the couch, so they will get plenty of attention hanging out with me.
“I was so happy to find Rebekah to care for our cats, especially since we had to have a special plan for the care. That is because Cuddles does not like anyone to enter our house. He was a ferrel cat who loves my husband and I so much, but I believe he tries to protect us from others who enter our house. He goes into a frenzy and bites and scratches. Rebekah was brave enough to tackle the job. We developed a plan for her to enter our basement laundry room through an outside door. The plan worked. We arrived home with our cats well fed and cared for and Rebekah safe and sound. Thank you Rebekah!”
“Hannah did a great job checking in on our kitty while we were out of town. She spent some time each day playing with her and made sure she had food and water. I highly recommend Hannah's services.”
“Myk'La is really nice and did a great job caring for my cat, including feeding, petting, giving meds, and litterbox cleaning. I definitely recommend her and will use her again if she is available to watch my pets.”
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: 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.
“Sarah was outstanding! She communicated so well when I was gone on a weekend trip. She sent the cutest photos, updates, and even taught my dog a new trick! The real deal and very sweet!”
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.
About: Im fortunate enough to have so much help when I go to work with my dog and work three nights a week so I have a lot of free time during the week. I’m looking to help others make sure their dogs can get let out or go for a walk while they’re busy (: I have a 1.5 year old mini golden doodle who is basically my child. we do everything together from walks to road trips to popcorn time during a movie! I work nights at a hospital and am lucky enough to have my grandparents watch my dog at night! I’d love to be able to help others out and ease some of the stress of having a dog at home by themselves for so many hours! My dog is my bestfriend, we go on walks every day, he loves play time with other animals & loves to snuggle up! We work on commands daily from sit, stay, shake, up, lay down, & much more!
About: I’ve worked as a veterinary nurse for 10 years and have worked with every size, age and energy level of dog and cat. I’m well versed in walking, bathing, potty training, and mind enrichment exercises, as well as multiple behavioral and medical conditions. I love caring for animals and have 2 cats and a dog, Siberian Husky, who needs a lot of activity and are spoiled daily. I know how to give medication, if needed, and how to deal with emergency situations. I can send pictures and videos daily to keep you updated. Your beloved furry family members will be well taken care of! I am available most days for the summer and can do morning, afternoon, and evening care. You can message me for further questions about scheduling. Let me know your pets daily routine they are used to, so I can stick as closely as possible to it to help them keep as much normalcy to their days as possible.
About: I trained my rescue dog during quarantine. I also have rescued 4 cats. I love animals and go out of my way to meet a dog. I have time after work and on weekends to help care for your furry or not so furry family members. I love animals and this is a joy to do! I have a clean background, I am great with animals. I am reliable and honest and will love your animals the way you love them.

Asia A.
“My cat Harley was in a great mood and was extremely soft when we got home (which means he was getting his pets). He loves Asia she always does a good job.”
Hala J.
“Let me start off by saying, I have never met a bigger animal lover than Hala! I have yet to see turn down the opportunity to give a dog a good scratch behind the ears, or a cat loving strokes under the chin. Since I’ve known her, she has adopted 3 pets and they are all thriving, happy and extremely well behaved. Her pets are always clean, well groomed and the most loving beings I have ever seen. I know without a shadow of a doubt that you couldn’t trust anyone more than Hala with your pets’ safety and well being.”
