“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.”


“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!”


“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.”


“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 :)”


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! 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.

About: Raised on a cattle farm in Texas, I’ve taken care of a multitude of animals. Cows, horses, rabbits, dogs, and cats. I believe respect is the number one aspect when caring for our friends. Through my experiences I’ve learned to read and understand animals to make sure they are always as comfortable and happy as can be. I love listening to them and giving them the best care, no animal who crosses my path will ever be misunderstood. Pet care is already engrained into my daily life, it would be a blessing to help. Meeting your best friends will bring a light to my day. With three cats, they all get equal but enormous servings of love. Supervised time on the patio, lots of play time, exercise and snuggles. I like to create an enrichment activity for them every other day to keep things interesting. My orange tabby gets his inhaler twice a day, morning and night. All cats get a dry breakfast, and then a wet dinner. Brushes and litter changes daily!

“Emily did an amazing job, we will definitely be using Emily in the future!”


“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 😊”


“Melissa did such a great job house sitting for our dog. This was our first time away from our dog for an extended period and Melissa sent lots of updates and pictures that kept us in the loop about what was happening at the house. I would highly recommend Melissa!”


“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.”


“Fantastic babysitter! Really loved Olive like we would and took amazing care of her! We got daily photos and our doggo looked very happy every day! 10/10 recommend”


About: What sets me apart from other sitters? I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether it’s a slow walk for an older pup or high-energy playtime for a young one, I meet animals where they are. I have two dogs of my own—Theo and Sage—so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. Beyond personal experience, I have a BA in animal science and I’m currently in the process of earning my master’s degree in Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communication, with a focus on companion animals. I also work as an assistant educator, so I bring a calm, thoughtful approach to every visit. I’m confident administering medications, caring for nervous or senior pets, and yes—I genuinely don’t mind deep-cleaning litter boxes. I treat every animal like family, with patience, care, and a whole lot of love I’m currently working mostly remote with few days in the classroom as a Teacher assistant. Whether it’s morning walks, meal times, or evening play sessions, I’m used to planning my day around pets’ needs. I live in a three-story townhouse with plenty of space for pets to feel comfortable—whether they want to play or have their own quiet area. My own dogs are super friendly, but I can easily keep pets separate if needed. I also have some dog training experience, so I’m confident handling different temperaments and routines. Your pet will be safe, loved, and well cared for here or in your home!

“Kim was incredible. She took great care of my Gracie. Loved the updates she supplied. I would recommend Kim to sit for anyone. Thank you Kim!”


“Lorri is always so patient with our very anxious and timid pup when we go away. She takes great care of our home and provides frequent updates for peace of mind. We will always check Lorri’s availability first!”


“Vonda exceeded our expectations!”


“Claire did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs and our house. She was friendly, easygoing, communicative and sent us pictures and updates.”


About: Neighbors, friends, and family had been relied on me to feed and take care of their cats. Then I started to take care of my friends who go on a trip and some people who offered me to take care of their cats while they are away. I am currently working from home most of the times. I like to play with cats and spend time with them. I am usually in the town on weekends. I can take care of your cat in your place, also if you have a long trip of absence I can take care of them both in my and your own place.

About: I have taken care of dogs from as little as a 9 week old puppy to a 16 year old dog! I have 2 dogs myself so I have lots of experience with dogs! I work part time and my weekly schedule is different depending on what time they need me but I have plenty of time to take care of your animals! I do it all from walking, playing, feeding, snuggling, and making sure your pet has the best experience possible. I will care for them like my own.

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.
