“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.”
“Abigail was great, we appreciated the updates and pictures while we were away. She communicated well and took good care of our sweet girl (13 year old dog). We will book again :)”
“Alyssa was great!! She took care of our two days and administered medication to one of them with no issues. She's kept us updated and we didnt have to worry about anything.”
“I can not say enough wonderful things about Briana! She sent me daily photos of my pets which I appreciated so much! We even had a meet-and-greet prior for her to meet my pets and she asked so many important questions so that she could provide the best possible care. If I could recommend her to everyone, I would! Thank you Briana!”
“Megan was wonderful with our two dogs and we would definitely use her services again! She sent pictures throughout her stay and kept us updated. We are confident that our dogs were much more comfortable and less anxious staying at home with Megan, than being boarded.”
“Kate did a great job taking care of my girls while we went on a weekend trip. I tend to worry when I leave my animals but the entire weekend I felt like they were in good hands. She gave me thorough updates and even checked to make sure we got home alright.”
About: I have been taking care of family and friends pets for many years. I have experience with taking care of particularly anxious and large dogs, as well as taking care of cats and lizards. I have just graduated college, so I have lots of time to take care of your pets. I am available all days of the week, including weekends. I will treat your pet and home with the utmost respect. I understand that routine and normalcy are important for your pets feelings safety and happiness.
About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience, I offer reliable and compassionate animal sitting backed by a lifetime of caring for a wide range of animals—including dogs, cats, and whole lot more! Growing up on a farm taught me responsibility, attentiveness, and a deep respect for animals of all kinds. Whether it’s feeding, exercising, administering basic care, or just providing companionship, I’ve done it all and treat every animal like my own. While I work part time, I am also studying for the national boards for occupational therapy and need some extra money. I love animals so this is just a great opportunity. I tailor my care based on each pet’s individual needs, whether they’re staying in my home or I’m caring for them in theirs. In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of space, structure, and supervision. I stick to the pet’s usual feeding schedule, offer daily exercise, playtime, and enrichment activities, and make sure they feel comfortable and loved.
About: I have worked with just about every type of animal. I worked as a veterinary assistant for five years and fostered for 10+ years. I have always loved animals and always go above and beyond for my furbabies. I often foster animals in need, as well as adopt animals in need. I honestly just have so much love and compassion to give out to all animals. I cant wait to meet your fur babies and get to know them better! Let me know if you have any questions! I am free most days with the ability to tend to your furbaby's needs whenever works best for you, as I am currently self employed and create my own schedule. I have a fenced in yard with lots of toys and room to run. I spend 2-3 hours outside (depending on the weather) with the pups playing fetch or other games.
“Chace was phenomenal! He kept me updated on my pets, and both of them immediately knew he was a safe presence! I’ll definitely book with him again!”
“Claire did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs and our house. She was friendly, easygoing, communicative and sent us pictures and updates.”
“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!”
About: I have loved and care for animals all my life. From loving on my own cats and dogs to creating a warming shelter for the outdoor cats and kittens or rescuing baby possums and bunnies...saving and caring for all animals is my favorite therapy. I'm currently working towards my Master's Degree and caring for your pet or pets will allow me to earn extra money while doing something I love. I know how stressful it can be to leave your fur baby behind whether you're leaving for business or pleasure. It's important to know that the person you are entrusting them to will love them and care for them the same way you would if you were home.
About: My name is Alli, I live in Champaign, and I’ve done pet and house sitting for a little over 4 years now. I’ve house sat for family and family friends with cats and dogs, a fish, and even a hampered! I really enjoy it and am excited to expand my interest and help out more people. I think I would be the perfect fit for your family! I’m tidy, responsible, caring, and punctual! For your animals I can take them on walks, and give them all the lovin’ they'll need while their humans are gone! I think house sitting is great because the animals can feel comfortable in their own house and now have to be in an unfamiliar place while their owners are gone! I’m currently looking for summer work while applying to jobs! I have full availability to be in the home and with the pets while you’re gone! I like to keep the animals in their home so that they are comfortable. I prefer to stay in the home over night unless it’s just a 1-2 day stint.
“Ayda did a great job of keeping me informed of how my pups were doing and sending pictures of them daily while I was out of town.”
“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.”

Jennifer S.
“Jenn has plenty of experience watching animals and doing a fantastic job! I’m so lucky to have been a client of hers for a while, as when my husband and I traveled out of state I was always worried I might not be able to have someone watch my dogs. She always was willing to come last second if needed and made sure my puppies were cared for. She also helped out with caring for our 2 horses on our farm when our daughter wasn’t available! Such a well-rounded girl, I can’t speak highly enough about her!”
