Pet Sitting in Rantoul

“I had Erin help with drop ins while my 8 week old puppy got the hang of potty training while I was at work. She cared for the dogs, played with, gave snuggles and great report cards and pictures. She was punctual and very communicative and flexible if needed. I appreciated her professional manner and would hire her again. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi there! I’m a high school physical educator with a passion for staying active and healthy. While I don’t have a furry friend of my own right now, I’ve grown up surrounded by pets and absolutely love spending time with them! I understand the importance of care, attention, and exercise for your fur babies, and I’d love the opportunity to provide that for them when you need a helping hand. Whether it’s a fun walk, playtime, or just cuddling up, I’m here to ensure your pet is well taken care of and enjoys their time with me. Let’s give your pets the love and attention they deserve! I just recently lost my sweet boy, who was very elderly. I took care of him daily to clean his ears, help him up and down stairs, as well as helping him eat. I have a very wide experience of taking care of pups! I currently working full-time as a physical educator, as well as a volleyball coach. I am available evenings and weekends all day! If I board your pups, I live right by my work place which allows me to stop in and let them out through out the day and give them attention! With a genuine love for animals and a deep understanding of their unique needs, I offer personalized pet care services both in your home and in mine. Whether it's a walk, playtime, feeding, or just some extra TLC, I strive to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved in every environment. In your home, I maintain your pet's daily routine, ensuring they feel secure and at ease. I provide familiar surroundings and consistent care, reducing the stress of your absence. From feeding schedules to special needs, I tailor my services to meet their individual requirements. When your pet stays with me, they are treated like family. My home is a pet-friendly space where your furry friends can relax, play, and enjoy a comfortable environment while you're away. I offer plenty of attention, exercise, and love, making sure they feel right at home in a safe, cozy space.

About: I have puppy sat for family/friends for 2 and 1/2 years, I also have experience with all types of dogs since I have worked at Dogtopia. My schedule is very flexible as I’m an online college student. I’m available day and night Monday through Friday. I will do my best to make accommodations for everyone’s schedule. I have 2 dogs at home with a fenced in back yard. I’m also available to go to someone’s house to watch there dog also.

About: I've been an animal lover and pet owner my entire life and have been in home pet sitting for over 20 years. I will give your pet the attention they deserve on a daily basis. I am happy to accommodate whatever requests you have in order to take care of your pet. I work from home and create my own schedule. So I am available to make in-home visits whenever you need them. I'm also able to accept last minute reservations for care. While I do own six cats, they are able to be separated from other animals that I am boarding in my home. I have a very large backyard, it is unfenced, so I would keep your pet on a leash or lead while outside. I prefer to watch animals in their own home, for their own peace and security. I am happy to do overnight stays if required. I'm very trustworthy and I am completely comfortable with you having cameras in your home while I am there.

“Tara did a great job with the cats! Also she was flexible with us before we left to get things like our alarm system explained to make the whole process easy. Would book again!”

“Our dogs love her and the boys. Easy to work with, great updates!”

About: Hello! I am an avid animal lover. I got my first pet when I was 3 years old. It was a kitten named Nicky. He taught me a lot of responsibility and showed me a lot of love. A few years later my my mom added several dogs to the family - miniature Schnauzers, Standard Schnauzer, and a Beagle mix Having these animals in my life has given me great experience and also taught me unconditional love. My previous dog helped me get through the rough days when I lost my mom to cancer. I have learned to care for seniors, animals requiring medication (orally) and how to work with young animals especially puppies. In your employ my top priority will be your pets happiness. Working for you is my only employment and my focus will be on your dog or cat only. They will get my undivided attention and I hope to spoil them like crazy. Since I have dealt with several puppies I can even try to bring some training tips to your dog if needed. Personally, I do still have my pup Julius but he lives with family out in the country loving his best life in open fields He is 12 now, He is my furry angel in he was my little protector. It is so true that not all angels have wings. I would have kept him but I could not afford all of the vet bills when you take care of a pet properly, luckily I have a family member I love so much that was able to provide that. I love spoiling dogs of course with the doggy parental guidelines, this includes specific food regiments and pills. I hope that I will get to meet you and your fur babies soon! I have a very go with the flow attitude except when it comes to animals and people I care about. So they will be number one! In my home I create a safe environment. I'm very aware of other animals around to keep your dogs safety number one priority. Unfortunately in this world people at their dogs off leash and that can be a problem. I have no problem following any regimented food or medication delivered to the animals. Also if I'm in a client's home I would treat it with respect and basically make it look like nothing has changed except your dog has gotten top-notch care. If there's anything specific in the requiring overnight boarding I am more than happy to oblige with that.

“Gail was wonderful with Doris! We had a few hiccups as this was our first time apart but we're ready for the next trip and will ask for Gail! She was patient while Doris & I missed one another. My rescue dog is very special to me and Gail & I worked together to get Doris through the experience and by the last day she was settling in to the new routine. Thank you Gail! Your my 1st choice FOREVER!”

About: I have had dogs all my life and recently left my job at a local dog shelter. My sister and I have been fostering and volunteering for the shelter for almost two years now. We have fostered everything from full grown pitbulls down to 6 week old boxer puppies. My passion is dogs. Whenever friends and family go out of town, I’m the designated dog sitter. No dog is too much to handle. I have two wonderful dogs of my own and they love to play and have guests. I try to go on walks everyday and I try my best to provide the care and attention each dog needs. I have a full time job that I work until 5 Monday through Friday, but I am home every day at lunch time for an hour and am able to take the dogs out to play and go potty. I have a very quiet and stress free home. I work full time so I am gone from 7am until between 430 and 5 Monday through Friday. I am home on the weekends other than running errands. My dogs and I like to spend a lot of time outside playing when we are home. I treat my pets and other’s like family. My pets sleep with me and when others are here they do as well as long as their owners are okay with it. I do have ways to separate dogs if that is necessary. If I am at someone else’s home, I will follow whatever parameters they have for their animals.

“Amanda was amazing! She really helped our pups feel cared for. Definitely will recommend her and keep her in mind for the future!”

“We highly recommend Allison!! She goes above and beyond to make sure our fur babies are safe, happy and loved while we’re away. We couldn’t enjoy a vacation without knowing they’re in her capable care. 🥰”

About: I’ve always had a dog in my home since I was born and have always been a big animal lover! I’ve always had a dog bestfriend in my life and I love making new fur baby friends. I’m a mostly stay at home mom looking to bring in some more income, so hoping to make pet care a part of my routine pretty often! I wish I had the space to bring your fur baby into my own home but sadly I don’t. But, I will treat your fur baby and your home with the love and care as if they were my own!

About: I have taken care of all sorts of animals from bunnies to horses. I grew up raising and showing pigs, goats, rabbits and longhorns. I have ample experience with house hold pets. The past two years I have worked with local animal rescues to find forever homes for dogs. I have taken care of all kinds from bottle babies to seniors needing a place to relax u til they cross the rainbow bridge. I am more than capable of accommodating to medications and special need patients. I personally have four dogs of my own and have fosters in and out of my house all of the time. Taking care of pets is all I do and is something that I excel at. I am a firm believer of consistency in animals and will take care of your pet however you see fit.

About: All throughout my life I've lived with animals, I was always excited to walk the dogs, hang out with the cats. I've had my dog since she was born and she just turned 11 in March, she is my whole world. I want to be able to care for all the animals I can! All week-days, weekends depend. I can do daily/weekly care Mon-Fri 9am-9pm. Just shoot me a message on when you need me and I will be there! I have a nice big back yard, one dog and one cat to play with your pets or I could dog sit at your house, that is no problem to me either. I will do anything I can to make sure your babies needs are tended to.

About: I've been fond of dogs since I was a child and they have returned the same fondness. Dogs and I have always had a special energy and connection. I guess they can tell I love them, appreciate them and truly believe they are "Mans Best Friend." I enjoy dogs of all sizes and my family has always called me their version of the "Dog Whisperer". When not looking after others fur balls I enjoy three of my own. Cayenne is a black Schnauzer and Kashmir and Jag are Mi-Ki's and were brother and sister from the same litter. All three are 10 years old. I look forward to being of service to you and providing whatever care or attention you need. I live in an apartment so I don't have room to board. I do however enjoy looking and caring for pets in their own environment whether that be walking them, companion visits, helping get them to the vet, etc. Whatever you need I will do my best to deliver. I look forward to meeting you!
