This was our first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous. Holly was amazing! We have 4 dogs and they can be a little overwhelming, but they all loved her. She kept in contact with us throughout the week and made sure not only our dogs were taken care of, but also our house. I would highly recommend Holly. We will definitely be using her services again.

Very positive experience with Ashley. She was available short notice and took very good care of my two pups. Our younger is a bit anxious and warmed up to Ashley quickly!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was young, family and friends have allowed me to take care of them. I enjoy taking them on walks, petting them and giving the attention they deserve, and taking care of them. I will treat them just as you would and offer extended stays. For stays longer than 5 days, most I have done is a month and a half as of present, you will return to a clean home 😊 I am strong and able to keep my stability while walking dogs, am able to let them out, feed them, give baths, and offer other services for the home like my interior design skills which is another side business, that can be spoken about, if interested.

About: I have worked with pets for over 15 years. Growing up, I had five dogs between two households, and now I have a 2 year old pup of my own! I have lived with dogs of all sizes, ranging from dachshund to golden retriever! Through the years, friends and family have trusted me to exercise, bathe, and feed their pets. I attended puppy training sessions with my corgi and golden retriever, so I have some experience with common skills such as sitting, lying down, and staying in one place. My dogs are my entire world, and I promise to treat your pet as if it were my own. I am currently employed & work 5am to 1:30pm Monday through Friday. I should have some flexibility from 11am to noon during the week should your pet need a 30 minute drop in, but this will depend on the day. I am willing to work around your schedule the best I can. When I come to pick your dog up for their walk, I will leash them and walk them around an area you desire. Regular collars are fine, but harnesses are even better since they are more secure. I will carry water for your pet, and make sure their water/food bowl is filled upon return. I will spend some time playing with your pet and making sure they are relaxed before I take off. If your dog is crated when you are not home, I will lure them into their crate in whichever way you desire.

Mattoon, IL, 61938

About: I am a proud mother of a 9yr old son and an 15 yr old daughter.. My daughter is usually at school for most of the day. However, caring for both full time I have come to notice animals stimulate both kids and teach them respect, responsibility and routine. We are excited to em"bark" on this new chapter in life and cant wait to start. Together, I believe all 3 of my family unit would not only love, but sincerely enjoy even the smallest and largest pets while their 'parents' are away or just need some attention. With summer upon us - my schedule (and helping hands) have become more flexible. Currently, I am available every day from 6am to 7pm. Holidays, weekends, and every day that ends in "Y"! With respect to the pet , clients home, and specific care needs, I try to always keep an open mind and heart but keeping respect in the foreground.

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.

About: I have been raised around all sorts of pets ranging from hamsters to dogs of all ages. My parents always expected me to help take care of our dogs and it has always been my responsibility to take care of my own animals. I have also learned a lot about pet care and animal behavior through my own research! I am currently an undergraduate student at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and living at home. I commute to and from school everyday and my weekends are usually free! I am happy to share my class schedule in order to make sure we are the right fit! I always make sure to meet your animals in a way that they feel comfortable prior to services in order to ensure everyone’s safety. I usually bring treats or a toy so they know I am someone they can trust! I also am able to accommodate to any needs for your pet whether it’s medicine, a specific diet, or if you are working on any specific training with them.

About: I provide calm, consistent care for dogs and cats so they can stay relaxed and comfortable while you’re away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your animal is safe, relaxed, and genuinely cared for. I also have current experience caring for larger animals (including horses), and have the ability to read body language and handle animals calmly and confidently. You can expect regular updates, and thoughtful care while your pet is with me. I also have experience as a pet and horse photographer, so I naturally capture calm, genuine moments to share while you’re away. I prioritize routine with your pet, so I take a limited number of bookings at a time. Morning: 7:30–10:30 AM Midday: 12–4 PM Evening: 5–9 PM (Friday and Saturday only) Overnight stays are considered on a case-by-case basis, depending on scheduling and your pet’s specific needs. I prefer to care for pets in their home so routine and stress levels are kept consistent and low. I follow instructions closely, adjust to each pet’s needs, and prioritize safety. You can expect dependable communication and updates while you’re away.

Hailey stayed in our home with our 2 yo mini Cockapoo and our 7yo cat for a week and did an excellent job. We left a lot of instructions which she seemed to follow to the letter. The house, flowers and animals all looked great when we got home! Will definitely reach out to her again.

Madie was amazing. We had a last minute conflict with our dog sitter and she came to the rescue. It was our first time using someone who was not family watching her. She came to our house on Thanksgiving to do a meet and greet which greatly decreased our hesitation about using someone else to watch our fur baby. Madie went above and beyond what we could have asked for. She was professional and extremely kind. She cared for Stella as if she were her own. We will definitely be using her again! Cannot recommend her enough.
