About: Having grown up with dogs, I infuse every walk with personal care and understanding. With me, each stroll becomes a cherished moment for your furry friend. Being retired, I’ve woven dog walks seamlessly into my daily routine. Dog walking isn’t just a service I offer, but a personal joy and focus. With vast availability throughout the week, I ensure every walk is unhurried and devoted, turning each outing into a delightful escape for both me and the furry companion. While I specialize in dog walking, ensuring each pet gets their needed exercise and outdoor time, I prioritize their safety and well being above all. Even though I don’t care for them in homes, during our walks, I’m always alert to their surroundings, avoiding potential hazards, and ensuring they’re comfortable. I also make it a point to understand each dog’s unique preferences and habits, so every walk is tailored to their individual needs. It’s about more than just a walk; it’s about understanding and respecting each dog’s personality on our shared journey.

“Tammie is very reliable, good to check in verify that we are still on schedule and nothing has changed. My dogs love her, I do too. She presents herself very well.”

About: I am first and foremost an animal lover. I have had large dogs all my life. Two golden retrievers and an Alaskan Malamute, not simultaneously. I currently have a 5-year old Alaskan Malamute. I am the go to pet sitter in my friend groups with many years of experience with all types of dogs. I have also fostered cats with Hospice Hearts Animal Rescue in Urbana, IL. I work 2-3 days a week as an RN. In my spare time I take my 5-year old Alaskan Malamute on walks, runs, hikes, and bike ride. My malamute is exercised daily. I believe our furry friends need frequent exercise just like us. I would give your pet undivided attention and care.

About: We are animal lovers and take care of my own dog. We are very detailed-oriented caring and loving person. We are also mature, responsible, and most importantly, reliable. My wife is a full time housewife. I'm currently staying at home. Let me know if they have any special needs as far as eating habits, daily routines, allergies, or medication. I would love to know how they are normally with other animals. There is plenty of space to walk around if we are staying inside. And I have a backyard with fence around the house so they are welcome to run around in the backyard.

About: Ever since I was young, I dreamed of having a pet of my own. Although my parents weren’t ready to give me that responsibility, I was lucky enough to have family members who trusted me to care for their dogs and cats. Every weekend became something special I’d wake up excited to take their pets on walks, play with them in the yard, or just curl up beside them. These weren’t just tasks to me; they were moments I truly cherished. Over time, those experiences shaped the way I see animals not just as pets, but as part of the family. Through the years, I’ve learned how important it is to be patient, attentive, and full of love when caring for a furry friend. It’s not just about feeding or walking them it’s about making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved every single day. That’s the kind of care I believe every pet deserves, and it’s the kind I’ve always been proud to give I am currently out of school for the summer l so I have a lot of free time to enjoy and care for an animal and follow any routine or schedule they might have. At home, I have a fully fenced backyard where pets can safely run, play, and enjoy the fresh air. Inside, my house has an open floor plan that gives them plenty of space to move around comfortably. I’ve also set up a small indoor fence area so they can relax and be cared for in a cozy, secure spot when needed. Whether we’re inside or outside, I make sure pets feel right at home and always safe,

About: I’ve had dogs and cats in my life for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. From growing up with family pets to regularly watching the dogs and cats of friends and relatives, I’ve gained years of hands-on experience with a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and routines. What truly sets me apart from other sitters is the genuine bond I build with each pet—I treat every cat and dog as if they were my own. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable when their owners are away, and I pride myself on providing consistent, attentive care that brings peace of mind to both pets and their humans. Pet care is a natural and essential part of my daily and weekly routine. I plan my days around my pets’ needs because their well-being is always my top priority. From morning walks and mealtimes to playtime, grooming, and evening wind-downs, I make sure every aspect of their care is handled with attention and love. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze into my schedule—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and intentionally make time for. That same level of dedication and reliability carries over when I care for other people’s pets, as I treat them with the same love, respect, and responsibility I give my own. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or new clients, I prioritize comfort, safety, and consistency in their routine. In my home, I create a calm pet friendly environment where cats and dogs have space to relax, play, and feel at ease. I maintain a regular schedule for feeding, walks, play time, and bathroom breaks. When caring for pets in the client’s home I respect their space and stick closely to the routine, their dog is familiar with. I also provide regular updates photos, messages, and check in so owners feel connected and reassured.

“We needed a dog walker on very short notice and Julie came to the rescue! We were able to connect over the phone on the way out of town and then connected her with my Mom, who was staying with the dogs at our house. Loved that she was comfortable to make a plan over the phone at the last minute- as there was not time for anything else. My Mom said the dogs loved her the moment she entered the house and that she was very friendly and on time. I will definitely be using Julie again- nice to have someone you can trust when life gets in the way!”

Hi! I’m Xaiviea, I’m 29, and animals have been the biggest part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for just about everything—puppies, kittens, parrots, reptiles, ferrets, chinchillas, barn animals—you name it! I spent a couple years as a professional dog trainer at Petco, regularly volunteer at local shelters, and have been an emergency placement foster many times. I’ve even dabbled in reptile husbandry and helped get my own mom into reptiles—she now has five, and I help her care for them! Right now I live with family to help out my elderly parents, and I share my life with four lovable Frenchies and my sphynx cat, Chicken. (Yes, his name is Chicken. Yes, he lives up to it. 😂) My long-term dream is to open two animal rescues—one just for French Bulldogs and one for all animals—with tons of space for everything from horses to hedgehogs. I also hope to go back to school for biology and zoology, and I’m using Rover to help save for that goal. I treat every pet like my own—furry kids with unique needs, personalities, and big emotions. You can trust me to keep them safe, loved, and totally spoiled. 💖 Thanks for reading—I can’t wait to meet your babies! My schedule is completely open and i promise I will make caring for your pets my first priority. I can stay as long as you'd like or I can pop in as many times as you'd like. Whatever you want I'll make happen! I'm an animal freak and provide the best care possible. My dogs are all on individual diets and have there supplements and all! I don't play when it comes to pet care! I take pride in how I care for my pets and your pets will get the exact same treatment.

About: I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, owning both cats and dogs. I have experience working with dogs of all ages and sizes, including puppies, and really enjoy spending time with them! I’ve also pet-sit for several family friends, as well as my own family members. I’m relatively free during the week, as well as on the weekends. I will always make sure to prioritize your pets when they’re in my care! When I’m in your home, I will follow your rules, and ask questions if there’s anything I’m unsure about. My goal is to keep your pets as happy, comfortable and as safe as possible!

“Kristen is great! She is on time, communicative, and sweet to my 4 legged. Thank you Kristen!!!”

“Raeanne has watched all 3 of my cats several times now and she will always be my first call when I go out of town! She treats each one of them as if they are her own pet, spending time playing with them and snuggling not just coming over to feed them and leave. They all trust her and love seeing her come over. She is very communicative and reaches out if she ever has any questions or just to send me photos/videos while I’m away which I appreciate:) I highly recommend using Raeanne as your next pet sitter, you won’t regret it and neither will your pet☺️”




Cindy H.
“Cindy is wonderful with animals. I used to see her taking such gentle care of her family dog Morgan and her pet rabbit Munny. I can't think of anyone who is more caring and kind towards animals. Another thing I love about Cindy is that she is a very clean person. I remember every time she got back from a dog walk she would wipe Morgan's paws and butt, so no dirty germs would stay on his skin.”

Xaiviea L.
“Xaiviea is obsessed with animals in the healthiest way. We've been best friends ever since I was 8 (I'm 31) and she's had SO many pets. She's never rehomed any for unnecessary reasons and I'm pretty sure she's a pet foster still i could be wrong but she used to I know that. I remember a while back she was looking for work cause she moved back to California from out of state and she was hurting for money pretty bad (I hope I don't get in trouble with her saying that haha) but she ALWAYS managed to get the fancy food all her dogs ate, always got there vitamins, always managed to have the money for vet apts, like she would go hungry before her pets would lol her pets wouldn't even notice whenever she'd be broke or something like that lol she can't pass a dog without yelling "GOOD BOY SPOTTING" can't watch any animal stretch without saying "biiiiiig stretch!" If you walk down the street with your dog by xaiviea she will ask you if she can pet it lol I have a corgi named Jack and she's the only one I trust to watch him. She's his regular sitter and I know she'll do anything to keep him safe and happy. Xaiviea is the best candidate for this job by far”


Emily B.
“Emily is a responsible and caring person. She loves her own animals and all of mine as well. She has walked our dogs, played fetch, and snuggled them. She enjoys our cats by giving pets and cuddles.
