8. Fallon M.
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.

“Milo is the best! There is no one our dogs love more!”
10. Kathryn H.
“Kat did a wonderful job taking care of our two energetic, needy kitties while we were away for a week. She was great at communicating, and she provided written and picture updates during each visit. I could tell she enjoyed playing with the girls (she was always trying out new toys when playing with them). In fact, they didn’t seem to miss us that much when we came back. I would be more than happy to have Kat take care of our kitties in the future!”
11. Lisa L.

15. Ariel T.
“Ariel was so wonderful and sweet. She was absolutely amazing with my cat and she made me feel so safe and reassured the whole time I was gone. She even got these cinematic photos and videos of Emrys to send me and it brightened my day every day.”
16. Kylie Z.
About: Like most people I grew up in a house with animals. Dogs, cats, rats, and I volunteered at a horse ranch down the road. Eventually I became the god mother to a cranky 20yr old eclectus parrot, which says a lot about my patience :’) I do work full time near UIUC, but thankfully my position is very flexible and I’m able to leave several times a day to check in on your fur babies! I currently have three cats that live with me, and my parents have their dog as well as mine. My beloved dog is bigger than I am and I did all of his training myself. I have experience with large and small breeds with all types of personalities, even if they’re not enthusiastic of people I’m confident I’ll make them feel safe and comfortable.
17. Jenny C.
“I booked a cat sitting service last minute with Jenny and she was nothing less than the”
18. Veronica S.
“Veronica did a great job taking care of my cats. Even my shy cat warmed up to her and would come play. Veronica also managed the removal of an injured mouse that my cats had caught - above and beyond the call of duty!”
19. Ben O.
“Ben was great taking care of our cat with his medications and visits while we were gone for the week! Our cat was in a great mood when we returned and we relaxed while out of town know he was taken care of! Would definitely like to use his services again!”
20. Tori Y.
About: With a background working at an animal hospital, I’ve gained experience in caring for and understanding a variety of animals. My two dogs at home are not only my beloved companions but my favorite things in the world! I cannot offer overnight stays at the moment but would love to be your dog’s workout buddy! Morning walks are my favorite, I would love to make them your dog’s favorite as well! :) I currently have a full time job Monday - Friday and have the weekends completely free. My schedule starts a little later than most so I love going on morning walks. As of now I am not offering at home stays but I am willing to stop by your home to play and snuggle your babies!
