“Regan is a wonderful pet sitter. He did drop in visits for us and was great at communicating with us and giving us updates. He took great care of our rabbit and everything was so clean when we got home. He took in our mail which was totally above and beyond. Absolutely booking with Regan again.”

“Mairin is beyond reliable, so great with communication and she takes great care of my Stella girl, and she’s just a sweetheart! It’s nice to have people who you know will treat your pup like their own, and I know Mairin does just that!”


About: I have 3 small rescued dogs and they love other dogs and enjoy playmates. We have a doggie door that they can access the yard from 6 AM to 9 PM. The yard is secure and the fence is 4 feet high. Your dog will get played with, loved and spoiled in my care. I do not anticipate any problem with my daily or weekly routine. I would not accept an assignment if I knew I was too busy that week. Your pet comes first with me. Your fur baby will be in great hands. We love dogs, and our dogs are very friendly and enjoy other dogs. I never get tired of giving attention to any animal.

About: I've always been the family member my family could call on to take care of their dogs when they were out. I've walked/been walked by an energetic husky, I've looked after a blind/deaf elderly shih tzu, I've spent hours playing with a cuddly golden retriever, and now I want to help take care of your pets. My schedule is fairly free for weekday/weekend care, earlier in the morning would work better for me but if you need me to come over at the evening/night time, I'd be more than happy to do so. My drop-ins involve a quick to-do list to take care of the basics (any food bowl, water, or potty attention), followed by playtime until I can ensure your pet is happy and satisfied. If you'd like me to have some photos of your pet whether I'm doing in home care or taking them for a walk, let me know and if there's an opening, I'll gladly snap a few photos for you on my phone!

About: I was raised around dogs and other animals. I have a dog of my own and have also fostered a special needs dog through a local shelter. I work as a nurse practitioner full time, but would have time before and after work, as well as on the weekends for dog walking, boarding, or for check in visits. My backyard is fenced in. We do have a crate should the dog be crate trained. Our lab is very friendly towards other dogs and loves to play with them. We do have 2 cats in the home who are used to other pets being in the home as we have fostered cats and a dog previously.

“This was our 1st experience with Rover and with Glen and we are very pleased. It’s nice to know we can plan an extended outing for the day and our dog can get excellent care from Glen. He sent us a couple pictures and our dog seemed happy and content when we arrived home. Will def book with Glen again!”


About: I love dogs and want to adopt all of them! I had a Boston Terrier who was my little shadow. Since I don't have the time to adopt a new dog, I figured pet sitting would be a great way to fill the spaces left that only dogs know how to fill. I work as a nurse at the hospital M-F 730-4. I can do drop in appointments before and after work, or could pet sit overnight. I have 2 indoor cats. I'm unsure of how they are with dogs but they get along with other cats well. If needed, I could keep the animals separated. At your home, I would follow whatever directions are given, offer some play time or snuggle time, and send updates about your pet.

About: My family has had dogs my whole life! I have 2 pups of my own at home. I currently volunteer for a service dog program and have puppy raised and fostered many of the program’s dogs for an extended period of time. I customize my schedule on a weekly basis according to school and my part time job. I am a college student and I work at night 2 nights a week, so my availability should be open the majority of the day. For the days you may book with me, your pup(s) will be my priority. I can crate your dog, if needed. The time spent with your dog will vary based on your daily routine, I’ll try to match it to the best of my ability!

About: Hello fellow animal lovers! My name is Jaci and i am a dog mom of 2. I know how important it is to find someone who will love your fur babies as much you do. I have taken care of dogs since I was 12. I volunteer off and on for the animal shelter which I absolutely love! I am a very active person and enjoy walking and running around with my fur babies as well as yours. I am experienced with all types of dogs from big to small, young and old and diffrent temperaments. My 9 year girl I rescued at about a week and half years old from being stranded and had to bottle feed her. So I am experienced with extensive care like bottle feeding and giving medicine/shots to dogs. So your pups will be in very good hands with me. I can't wait to meet your 4-legged friend soon! I am currently only working part time so I will have a lot of time to dedicate the love, care and fun for your pups! I have a spacious fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can even crate your dog as well if needed.

About: I have had animals my entire life from the time I was born to now. My first word was our dog at the time’s name, Heidi. I worked in the East Peoria PetSmart Grooming Salon for 3.5 years as a dog bather. I would love to meet your furry family member and get to look after them when needed. Thank you!! I have a full time job from 8 to 5. I am typically home most other times, rarely going out. I have a partner that lives with me and he is an animal lover as well and he often gets home before me by a couple of hours. I have 1 small friendly dog and 2 dog friendly cats. The animals are allowed in all areas and furniture of the house, however, I can crate if needed. I have a small crate in my house for dogs up to 20 pounds. I have a fenced in yard and can do daily walks as well.

About: I have had a dog in my house hold my entire life. I have had experience with puppy and old dog as well as sitting for cats. I will make sure your fur baby is safe and happy while in my care and take lots of photos and videos! I am an RN but I also love working with the fur babies, therefore, I will be available on my off days to feed, walk, and play with your dog or cat! I will make sure that your house stays the way it is and clean up anything that the animal might have done their business on or torn up.

“Natalie did a great job taking care of our two small companion dogs while we were away visiting family. They are both a bit shy and she spent extra time with them until the became comfortable with her. I would have her back again.”


About: Hello! I am very passionate about dogs and will provide loving, patient care while you are away from home. I have fostered many puppies and adult dogs in my home through a dog rescue in California for 5 years, and continue to do the online work for that rescue from my home in Illinois. I have two fur babies of my own Espresso and Lucy, and our two cats mostly hang out in whatever room the dogs are not in :) We have a secure, fenced backyard with room to run. Dog cuddling and treats are a staple here, as well as walks, frequent potty breaks and playing with toys! My six year old daughter loves dogs but also respects boundaries and will leave them alone if they don’t want attention. I am prompt, professional and respond to texts/calls in a timely manner. Please contact me if you have any questions! I am a stay at home mom attending school online, so frequent potty breaks, cuddles and playtime are constantly available to them, or whatever else they might need. I have a fenced in yard and ample room to get the zoomies out. Dogs are welcome on the couch and I have a few dog beds available too.

About: Animals have always been drawn to me even the ones who "don't like anyone" I love all animals and have experience in helping if ur pet experiences aniexty. I'm currently in school for cosmetology from 9-5 mon-fri and free all weekends so you can go out and have fun and I'll make sure your pet has fun too. I currently have 1 male cat in my home he's friendly but I would not be available for boarding at this time. For clients homes I'm very detail oriented and I'm very adaptable to routine if your pet needs/have one.

About: I have been a dog mom to Zoe for 10 years! I have also dog sat and walked for my neighbors ever since I was little. I am a therapist in the school system so my days are usually from about 8-3. I have open availability to house sit and help out when you are going out of town! I live in a studio with an open floor plan. There is plenty of grass and an area for dogs to play! If I am caring for your pet in your home, I am respectful of your space and try to make it look like I was never there.

About: I was a trained volunteer dog walker for 3 years while I pursued my undergraduate degree. In graduate school, for 4 years, I was the designated pet sitter for the graduate students, several faculty, and various people in Carbondale, IL. Now, I am the first person my friends, family, and acquaintances call when they need a pet sitter or someone to walk their dogs during the day. I've met many people in Peoria through recommendations to watch their homes and care for their pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds, all types of cats with different temperaments and needs, and some experience with rodents as well. I have also made house calls to help bathe dogs, clip their nails (cats too if needed!), brush their teeth, and other grooming needs. I am committed to doing my absolute best to care for your pets in any and all ways needed whether that's a long walk several times each day, a hike, an afternoon cuddle, a dance session in the kitchen, belly rubs, chin scratchies, or just someone to constantly shower your pet with love and joy while you're away doing what you need! I am the owner of Radish Kitchen in Peoria, and my schedule is very flexible. I am able to step away as often as needed throughout the day as long as I have at least 2 days notice on what your pets needs will be. If I am staying the night at a house it is very simple to make my way there after work. If I am leaving in the afternoon or several times throughout the day I can do so. My schedule is flexible and can be as accommodating as needed with enough notice. I have a dog and three cats at my own home. We have a fenced in yard, but I also walk my dog at least 4 times every day. My cats have plenty of places to nap, run, play, and watch birds throughout our home.

Jam R.
“Jam is hands down the best pet sitter we've ever had. She is so kind and so patient with the animals. She sends plenty of updates with pictures, which I seriously appreciate! When I had to start giving my cat a pill every day Jam actually came over to help me do it the first time because I couldn't get him to take it. She showed me a couple of tricks and now it's no problem at all! She stays the night with our pets but still comes over in the middle of the day to check on them, which helps me worry so much less. She always tidys up the place, too, which I super appreciate. Jam is my favorite!”
