“Milo was so great with our babies! He was really responsive and all of them were so happy when we got home. Our cat had surgery a week ago, and we felt very comfortable leaving him at home under the care of Milo.”
“Whew...this was our first time having someone dog sit for us, let alone stay at our house to do it. Rachel was AMAZING. She was personable, professional, very responsive, and sent lots of pictures and updates (we were gone for 8 days). Our dog was clearly well loved and cared for. We would recommend Rachel to our friends and family, and will certainly hire again!”
“Amy was awesome with our dogs and cats while we were out of town! She kept us updated and sent photos every day, so I could tell they were being well taken care of. One of my dogs has a lot of medications and is a picky eater, and Amy was so on top of it, which put me at ease knowing he was in good hands. I will definitely book with Amy again!”
“Kolton is terrific to work with! This is the 2nd time I have used him to watch my boys for an extended period of time and he has been nothing but great! He always will do what’s best for your pet and not leave you second guessing your pets care. He sends daily updates and pictures and will do whatever is needed for your pet! Don’t hesitate to utilize him for all your pet-sitting needs. I will definitely utilize him again in the future.”
About: I started volunteering at the animal shelter when I was 10. I have 5 dogs and 8 cats that I have rescued from abusive/neglectful homes, the streets, and from the shelter. I took a vet tech class in high school and a big/small animal class. I’m very good with all kinds and types of animals. I work part time currently, 4 to 5 hours a day Monday-Thursday and I’m off Friday-Sunday. I will definitely be able to care for and engage with your pet when needed. When I go to a new house to dog sit I always lock the doors and make sure to follow all rules I have been given. I stay very aware of my surroundings and the animal.
About: I do have a cat of my own and a bunny and always dog sit my family dog Capone he’s about two and an half years old! And a pitbull mix, I do have references! I can start in August mostly around 3pm until whenever! I’m very flexible with time and dog sitting or cat sitting I can do Mondays-Fridays! I always take care of my cat and bunny in the mornings and always give them my time attention after work and make sure they have fresh water and entertainment and treats!
“Oso enjoyed having Fallon over and she was consistently checking in with me to see how Oso was doing and was super accommodating on such short notice! I highly recommend her for house sitting and walks! Oso loved her and I’ll be using her services in the future!”
About: Fur babies are my life … No literally! 🤗 I’m a Veterinarian Assistant so caring for your pet is literally what I do, what I love.🥰 I do pick ups and drop offs !! I work in VETMED at a local Veterinary clinic part time . So that gives me tons of extra time during the week. I also do drop in during my work day as well. !! I have a fenced in yard and a very nice fur baby to keep your fur baby company. I do also have created if needed.
“Blair left my place in perfect condition and made sure my 2 kitties were loved and fed! She seemed to be such an animal lover with a ton of experience with animal care. Would recommend to anyone!”
About: Hi! My name is Marissa. I’ve been caring for dogs for 11 years—starting with puppies at age 14. I have experience with all ages, including senior dogs needing extra patience, comfort, and medications. I’m reliable, gentle, and treat every dog like family. Whether it’s playful walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, your pup will be safe, loved, and well-cared for with me! I also have experience in feeding, handling and caring for bearded dragons. I’m a part-time hairstylist with a flexible schedule! I’m available for overnight care after 4 PM Tuesday–Saturday, and fully open on Sundays and Mondays (my weekend). I can also occasionally fit in midday walks, drop-ins, or medication visits between appointments during the week—just reach out to check! Your pet’s care always comes first. 🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment with no other animals in the home—perfect for pets who need one-on-one attention. I understand how much your furry family member means to you, especially after recently losing my own beloved dog. I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and care I gave my own, ensuring they feel safe, secure, and right at home. I also have a pet car seat and stroller holding up to 30lbs to ensure the most comfortably and safety for your fur baby.
“Georgia did wonderful watching and caring for my cat and dog. I was so worried leaving for a week but she has done great and sent videos of my dog enjoying a pup cup. She walked him to our local ice cream shop to give him some out time while I was gone. She’s great!!”
“Came home to happy dogs who barely seemed to register that we were gone. Kylie was great with keeping us updated and being flexible when plans changed . We look forward to having her stay with them again in the future!”
“Communication lines were open, many pictures were sent, and I cannot thank her enough for her flexibility when our flight plans got thrown for a little loop!! Would 100% book again!”
“Jasmine was absolutely brilliant! She is knowledgeable and reliable, and our furbabies adore her! She was equally adept at tending to our 3-month-old puppy as she was our old, grumpy chihuahua. She knows her way around both cats and dogs and was able to offer us training support with our wee one. We will definitely be booking her for future pet sitting needs - even if we're convinced that our pups already love her more than they love us :)”
About: I’ve taken care of PAWZ every since I was 10 years old. My family had four kittens around that time of age and I took the lead role into making sure they’re daily activity was met. I’ve also dog sat in the past few years while being a student on UIUC campus. I like to go for walks, car rides, or sitting on the balcony on a nice sunny day, so if your furry friend needs a pet sitter of interest please reach out to me. Im currently a student at University of Illinois UC and I work part time. Most of this time is during the day, but this is also negotiable . I love playing in and out doors with our friends in the yard or in the living room etc, while following your pet/home care instructions.
