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!”


About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs all my life. I understand the needs and wants of a pet parent well. I’ll care for your fur babies like they’re my own 💛🐶 I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of free time to meet and play with new pups! Monday and Tuesday I have open availability and Wednesday-Sunday most weeks I will have morning/afternoon availability. Due to my own pack of fur babies at home, I only offer services in your home, so I’m open to whatever you need in your environment!

“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 have been around animals my whole life but professionally just over 3 years! As a college student on break I have an extremely flexible schedule to dedicate to your pups needs!!

I’m trained in grooming, recognizing early signs of health issues, and handling medications confidently and safely. I know how to stay calm under pressure and respond quickly in case of an emergency. I’m also familiar with maintaining training routines. especially with working dogs, as my own dog Bailey is a trained hunting dog. I’ll make sure your pup is well cared for, both physically and mentally, just like I would for my own. As I have mentioned previously, I am currently still on summer break before college and have recently left my kennel job this past week so I will have ample time to take care of your fur baby! My schedule is currently available all day! I care for pets with the same attention and love I give my own dog, making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable at all times. I follow any routine you provide, including feeding, walks, playtime, training, and medications.

When it comes to your home, I treat it with complete respect and care! Keeping things the same as it was left, secure, and following any house rules you share. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel totally at ease while you're away and stress free!

I provide compassionate care to your pets in and out of the house.

“Ayda stopped by to let my two boys out and sit with them for a bit while I had to work OT. She sent pictures and made sure they went potty before she left. She even brought in my packages from the porch that had been delivered earlier in the day.”


“I've had Madison look over my pets a couple times, and every time she has been such a joy. She's very attentive, making sure she has all of the care instructions down and locations of treats and food and such. I couldn't recommend her enough to anyone looking for the services she provides!”

“I highly recommend Kenzie as a pet caregiver. Kenzie has cared for my two Frenchies numerous times, and her dedication and love for animals are truly exceptional. She goes above and beyond to ensure their well-being, showing responsibility and reliability in every aspect of pet care. Kenzie's warm and friendly nature puts both pets and owners at ease, and she quickly forms strong bonds with all animals.

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.”
