“Laura was fantastic as usual with our cat Axel. It was the holidays so it was a bit frenetic as I traveled abroad, but the videos and check ins for my elder cat aided my anxiety. For an overnight sitter, Laura is the best :)”
“Gina did a wonderful job with our 3 kitties. She was easy to communicate with and sent pics and updates that put my mind at ease. I’m looking forward to having her cat sit again for us.”
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.
“My Smokey first time was alone when I was gone for a week. I knew he was going to be emotionally stressed. Amber handled Smo very well. Cared for him and fed him food and meds as needed. I’m very happy with Amber how she took care of Smo. I’ll recommend her 100% to take care of your furry babies.”
About: I have 5 dogs in my household that I have trained and taken care of when my family goes out of town for soccer, I am more than happy to cater to your babies as well! I am currently working part time at a trampoline park, so recently business has been slow. Many people are asking for more hours, but there is so much the business can do. I am no opening my options up to pet sitting, because I love animals and I am glad to see families that love there pets as well! I let dogs/puppies out every 2 hours. My personal dogs eat twice a day, but depending on how the clients feeding schedule I can feed as wanted. Water is always available to them. They will get play time with there potty breaks as well.
“I was absolutely adored the brief yet thorough notes Anthony would post on the Rover cards for my two fur babies after each drop-in; as an anxious pet-owner it really kept me at ease and it was nice reading the little adventures they would get up to. I was quite pleasantly shocked as no one had done this before. He even kept the house tidy if there were any accidents or naughty chewed areas. As well as took the initiative to put on some doggie music so they didn’t feel so alone. He was pleasant and professional, yet empathetic and personal all at the same time which I greatly appreciated. Will definitely be using Anthony again in the future and I recommend you do, too!”

About: I’ve been babysitting animals since I was fourteen years old—love all animals, both big and small, hairy and bald! Would describe myself as a golden retriever with the amount of energy I have! I am currently available to babysit anytime. I attend UIS and would love to take care of your fur baby. They will get all the love and snuggles you can imagine. I plan on keeping the animals inside when they are off a leash- when on a leash, to the park we go! I can ensure you that your animal will be safe in my smoke free home I work part time, so spending time with animals is not an issue to me. I of course will let each owner I babysit for know what I end up doing for each animal! I will follow any instructions the owner gives me about their pet so that I can help them be as comfortable as possible since they will be away from home for a while.
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, growing up with dogs, cats, birds, and even lizards. My mom was an animal lover, and I’ve followed in her footsteps. I helped my dad with his three cats that my mom used to care for before she passed, driving an hour every week for grooming and bathing (one of them is a bit oversized!). I’d love to care for your beloved pet. Although I can’t have pets of my own due to my wife’s allergies, this makes pet sitting my dream job! I regularly care for my father’s cat, Jack, traveling over an hour each way, so distance is not an issue for me. I work seasonally for a cemetery in Bloomington which leaves me laid off from December 1st to March 1st each year. So I am highly available in that 3 month span, and then on weekends during the rest of the year. I’m here to support you and your beloved pet. I’ve always had a deep love for animals and the people who care for them. When my wife mentioned pet sitting, I was excited to get involved right away. Dogs seem to love me, and cats generally tolerate me—which I think says a lot about my character! I’m reliable, trustworthy, and available when you need me. I’ve been caring for pets since I was young, helping neighbors with feeding, walking, and cleanup. I promise to provide the care and attention your pet deserves and be a great fit for you both!
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. I have dogs ranging from 8 lbs- 78 lbs. I love dogs and always give every dog the attention and love they deserve. I have dealt with blind dogs and skittish dogs. I can easily adapt to the enviroment the dog needs/wants but do not let bad behaviors get by. I also do not believe in "smacking" or punishing a dog in a rough way for any bad behavior. I believe dogs are able to tell when something is not okay by voice, tone, and body language. I want every dog to get the love and attention they deserve. I am willing to spoil a dog to any means and make them forget that you are even gone. I’m a teacher so my summers are very free! I want to be able to keep animals very busy during the summer since it is so nice out! I have experience with “escape artist” dogs so I know how to be safe with animals who may want to escape. I keep an eye on pets all the time especially the ones who may be busy bodies.
