“Tanya provided exceptional care for our cat and two dogs while staying over a long holiday weekend in our home. She asked excellent questions during our "meet and greet," so when it came time for us to leave our animals we knew they were in good hands. She arrived to house sit early afternoon on Friday and left late on Monday to accommodate our travel schedule. Our animals each have particular needs and personality quirks. For instance, we have one high energy dog that requires oral medication, frequent potty breaks, and long walks. Our other dog is content sleeping all day and needs to be convinced to take short walks! Plus, the energetic dog will eat the lazy dog's food if given the opportunity, so we feed them separately. Then, our cat is low maintenance, but still needs food, water, affection, and to have her box cleaned daily. Finally, the dogs wake up at 5am for breakfast (whether we're awake or not). Caring for the three of them is a lot of work and Tanya did a great job attending to their needs! We came home from vacation to happy, heathy pets and a clean house. We could not have asked for a better pet sitter. I highly recommend Tanya and would absolutely employ her services again.”


“I have used Rover several times throughout my dog’s 10 years and have NEVER seen her warm up (and calm down) to someone the way she did with Milo, which speaks volumes about how Milo handles animals with care and compassion. We came home to two very content animals after being away for a couple of nights and booking at the last minute, and Milo was also super respectful of our home. I would definitely recommend, and I know Milo is going to make an amazing vet tech!”


“Corey was a helpful and communicative pet sitter who spent time with my dog, and was flexible. Checked in multiple times to make sure we had his services as long as they were needed. I would book with Corey again.”


“Melissa took such great care of our puppy while we were gone for a long day. Our Olive was happy and tired when we got home. We’ve already booked Melissa for several stays throughout the summer.”


“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!”


“Patrick housesat and watched our dog and kitten over the Christmas holidays. He sent us daily photos and prompt messages. On very short notice he was able to stay an extra night due to our travel delays. We would definitely schedule again for any future pet sitting 😊”


“Sarah was the best!! Our dog was so comfortable with her and it was great to have the peace of mind of having a responsible sitter while we were out of town. She sent us pictures and videos every day and we came home to a happy and healthy puppy. We will definitely rebook with her for our future trips!”


“Becky stayed at our house while we were out of town. I am one of those pet owners that gets very anxious and worries a lot about my dogs. However, when Becky was there I felt totally at ease and didn’t worry once. She was great with communication and sent pictures. I will definitely be using her again in the future!”

About: Hi there, I’m Sierra! I currently reside in Champaign and work at a few daycare/boarding facilities here. I’m currently going to school to become a vet tech, so on top of having animal care experience I also have some vet med experience! I have two dogs of my own and spend everyday around all sorts of dogs, miniature to giant! I look forward to meeting you and taking great care of your pup! *Please see the last photo in my gallery that shows pricing and policies!* Pet care fits into my daily routine best in the morning since I go to work in the pm, but I work with animals every day and have a different schedule every day! If my schedule looks confusing or even if I have a day marked unavailable that you need pet care on, please reach out to me, I’m always willing to see if I can move anything around to accommodate! Pets will feel right at home here! I offer an unfenced area for them to run and potty as well as living not far from a dog park. I always make sure the dog is comfortable with me at all times and take the steps needed to gain and maintain their trust, I never want to stress the animals out in a new environment or in their own environment.

“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!”


“Jo was wonderful! We received frequent updates and photos. We have a dog nervous of thunderstorms and Jo handled it perfectly. All in all everything was great and we will definitely be using Jo again ?”


“Brianna was terrific with our chiuhauha while we were out of town. During our trip we received many pictures of Tiki and Briana playing together. When we returned, our dog was as happy go lucky as ever. We heighly recommend Brianna!”


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.

“Lorri was fantastic with my little guy while I went out of town. She had excellent communication with frequent photos and I felt that she genuinely cared for my dog as if it were her own. Very trustworthy and would recommend and request her again in the future!”


About: I’ve taken care of my family dog and dogs of family friends since I was in middle school. I grew up with a beagle and I was always responsible for walking, feeding, and giving her baths. I’m currently a student in college who doesn’t have a job during the school year which leaves me with some free time during the day/ evenings to walk and care for dogs. I can easily travel to your house to walk or care for you dog. My house is also very dog friendly and my neighborhood is filled with sidewalks making it very convenient for dog walking. I’m working part time right now during my gap year! I have lots of time during weekends as well to give your pup the love and fun it deserves! I would love to get a puppy of my own but it is a little too much financially for me right now so I love getting the chance to spend time with dogs I dog sit for :) I live in a gated community that is super dog friendly and even has a very large park right next door that your dog would love to run around and play in. I am also super active so I love to go on long walks with the doggies that I care for.

“She did such a good job watching our babies! She sent multiple pictures and videos to keep us updated and made sure Anchovy got played with during her visits! We will definitely use her again and would 1000% recommend!”
