“Has followed directions perfectly, very trustworthy, great communication, just everything you’d want for your pup. Highly recommend!”

Aj S.

“I had a great experience with this dog walker! They were incredibly kind and patient with my senior dog Max, who’s 11 years old and moves at his own pace. It was clear they really cared—after the walk, they made sure Max had water and was comfortable before leaving. I really appreciate the extra attention to detail and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and gentle with older dogs.”

About: My love for dogs and cats, started many year ago, when I helped with dog rescue and made many runs, on transports. In those years, we have transported over 150 dogs, and overnighted almost 70! With the 70 that stayed overnight, there were countless times, we kept between 3-8, puppies and some adult dog mixed in. During, the time they spent even though, it was just for a night. I started working with the puppies, on basic commands and potty training. With this, I have had experience with many breeds and dogs of all sizes. Beside the rescue dogs that would come in and out, we had 4 dogs of our own. With slow introduction on common ground, our dogs always loved our guest. I am a stay at home mom, so I have a wide open schedule. With having this schedule, I’m able to help a client, at a moments notice. I have a big fenced in yard, and my son reinforced at the bottom of the fence, with rocks so the dogs can’t dig out. We do have a pool, but we had built a deck with a gate, where they cannot get anywhere near the pool, unless we are up there. I prefer to use harnesses or martingale collars, for the safety of my dog, or a clients dog. Dogs safety, is my number 1. If I don’t know how the dog walks on a leash, I sometimes double leash, as I did on rescue transport, just in case one leash breaks. At night or anytime we are not home, our dogs are crated, for their safety.

About: My husband and I have lived in and near around Champaign for 6 years. We have 3 cats together, Max, Little Miss and Bella. We also have a red Golden Retriever, Archie. I love taking dogs outside on walks/runs and playing fetch. I also like the challenge of teaching new tricks to dogs as I've been able to teach and maintain the basic tricks that dog owners prefer with the appropriate amount of time. Cats can be some of the most interesting creatures out there. So, I love to hangout inside with the cats and cuddle or play with them. I worked at Pet Supplies Plus for almost 2 years. Most recently, I'm a Veterinary Assistant for 4 years. So, I have experience with all types of animals and veterinary care. I'm currently not working. So, I've got plenty of time to hangout and play with your furry ones.! Currently, I cannot offer overnight, unfortunately. As, I'm a pet owner myself. However, I'm glad to pop in for a while throughout the day. I will always keep your dog on leash (I prefer harness. As it does not pull on their necks) if there is no fenced in yard available. Even if there is a fenced in yard, I like to watch them to make sure they don't get out of the yard or get into something they shouldn't.

“Abigail is very sweet and made the process easy with fast and consistent communication. My dogs took to her immediately during the meet and great and she has since taken my dogs on walks. Will definitely use her again.”

“We needed help with our pup last minute and Misty was quick to respond and willing to work with our schedule. During the meet and greet I could tell she was very comfortable with animals as well as knowledgable. Overall Misty was amazing to work with and I felt at ease knowing our fur baby was in good hands.”

About: Hi there, my name is Becky! I understand how hard it can be to find a reliable and trustworthy sitter or walker. I will be happy to help anyway I can. I have had cats all my life and have been pet sitting from a young age. Currently, my boyfriend and I share a dog named Marley and a cat named Simon. I enjoy taking Marley for walks and playing with her in our yard. I would love the chance to treat your pets like they are my own. Although I do have a full-time job, I can still offer plenty of hours for walks, drop ins, or overnight stays. I would love the chance to get to know your fur babies. I am available to check in, walk, play, or whatever you need. I am currently taking a break from working. I am a travel radiologic technologist and home for a break before starting a new contract. I can crate your dog if that is your preference or sleep with them on the couch or bed if they are used to cuddling with you at night.

About: I have been around animals my whole life but professionally just over 3 years! As a college student on break I have an extremely flexible schedule to dedicate to your pups needs!! I have a yellow lab name named bailey which is my absolute world! With professional experience working in a kennel that includes, I cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I’m trained in grooming, recognizing early signs of health issues, and handling medications confidently and safely. I know how to stay calm under pressure and respond quickly in case of an emergency. I’m also familiar with maintaining training routines. especially with working dogs, as my own dog Bailey is a trained hunting dog. I’ll make sure your pup is well cared for, both physically and mentally, just like I would for my own. As I have mentioned previously, I am currently still on summer break before college and have recently left my kennel job this past week so I will have ample time to take care of your fur baby! My schedule is currently available all day! I care for pets with the same attention and love I give my own dog, making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable at all times. I follow any routine you provide, including feeding, walks, playtime, training, and medications. I understand that routines are important as it comes to making them feel safe and a constant when you are away! (My dog bailey has a strict routine so I get this!) When it comes to your home, I treat it with complete respect and care! Keeping things the same as it was left, secure, and following any house rules you share. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel totally at ease while you're away and stress free!

“May and Fred love Hannah !! They greeted her like they had known her before. Even my mammas boy left with her without looking back ! She’s sweet and gentle and clearly has the dog whisperer In her. Will be using her often going forward.”

About: I grew up with dogs in my home, they became apart of the family. I’ve had 7 dogs of many breeds throughout my life, so taking care of them has become second nature. I start my day pretty early at 5am. My job is flexible so I can accommodate puppies or older dogs that may need more frequent potty breaks. I have a 2 year old dog myself that loves to play with other dogs. All dogs are leashes before the door opens for walks for everyone’s safety.

About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs all my life. I understand the needs and wants of a pet parent well. I’ll care for your fur babies like they’re my own 💛🐶 I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of free time to meet and play with new pups! Monday and Tuesday I have open availability and Wednesday-Sunday most weeks I will have morning/afternoon availability. Due to my own pack of fur babies at home, I only offer services in your home, so I’m open to whatever you need in your environment!

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.

“Great communication, easy to set up a meet and greet. Easy transition of keys to my apartment. Great walking distance and time for the price! Thanks again, and I’ll be booking in the future!”

About: Im fortunate enough to have so much help when I go to work with my dog and work three nights a week so I have a lot of free time during the week. I’m looking to help others make sure their dogs can get let out or go for a walk while they’re busy (: I have a 1.5 year old mini golden doodle who is basically my child. we do everything together from walks to road trips to popcorn time during a movie! I work nights at a hospital and am lucky enough to have my grandparents watch my dog at night! I’d love to be able to help others out and ease some of the stress of having a dog at home by themselves for so many hours! My dog is my bestfriend, we go on walks every day, he loves play time with other animals & loves to snuggle up! We work on commands daily from sit, stay, shake, up, lay down, & much more!
