You are gifted and talented with arts and caring pets. Wish you all the best.”
“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.”
“My partner and I chose Madison years ago to watch our kitties while we were away...and then we picked her again for the next 3-4 years every time she was available while we lived in Chambana 😂 She's really a sweetheart and cares for the animals like her own, and you can tell she takes pride in her work. I recommend her to everyone in her area to book with her!”

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've taken care of dogs/cats ever since I could remember. From simple baths to administering medicine/medication, I've done it all. I have also helped train puppies and have experience in taking care of senior dogs/cats. I'm in college, but I'm completely free 5 days out of the week (Though I will mention that I'm unavailable on Tuesday from 9-11:50, and on Thursday from 11-11:50). So your pups/cats will get my undivided attention with all the love and care they need! I have an apartment with no pets, so it'll just be me and your furbabies. My apartment does offer pet friendly areas for dogs to be taken out to or cats that are outdoorsy. I do take pets out for routine walks and potty breaks, but I'll follow whatever routine you have in place already if need be.
About: I’ve always had some species of animal since I was a child. I’ve cared for them, bathed, walked, fed, taken vet trips, went on road trips with them. You name it, I’ve probably done it! My favorite people are animals! My fur babies are just that: my babies. They look to me for love and care and guidance. I try my best to ensure they live their best lives with as much love and happiness as possible. I have a fenced in yard but I would rather do drop ins as I have physical disabilities that would hinder playing with my fur babies as well as yours. I only want what’s best for your furry children!
About: I'm a honest trustworthy person who makes it my mission to be dependable and I love dogs! So I thought I'd give this a try! im also trying to hit some fitness goals so super interested in making some dogs run! Just got back to Champaign from Arizona / Las Vegas! I would love to get good clients and do this full time . If you have any questions please reach out! Every dog / cat is different and requires different needs so basically I Treet my fur babies as family and do my best to raise them right!
“I recently had the pleasure of hiring Alexandria to take care of our cat, Midnight, for a week while we were out of town. Alexandria stayed at our house to keep Midnight company and to take care of feeding, litter box cleaning and quality play time. She kept me updated with frequent photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease. Midnight seemed comfortable and happy around Alexandria from day one. She also took care of various household chores such as garbage collection and bringing in mail and packages. After getting home, not only was Midnight in top shape, but also the house! I highly recommend Alexandria to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy petsitter, and I will definitely be booking her again in the future.”
