“Olivia did an awesome job with Lili! Lili was definitely apprehensive and nervous with a new person but Olivia was super accommodating for Lili and gave her the space she needed. She also gets in a long walk for Lili which helps since I’m at work all day! Thanks Olivia!! Grateful to have you to help with Lili every week :)”
About: Veterinary student, veterinary assistant in Champaign, veterinary ER experience, personal animals my whole life including dogs of all age, size, and disposition. Passionate about making lifelong client and pet relationships in this community! I am enjoying my final summer before my third and fourth years of veterinary school, and have availability 7 days a week. I prefer staying with the pets I am sitting, but drop ins work for me as well. I have experience with all kinds of dogs in all stages of their life. Each dog has their own individual needs that you know best, and the better I know your pup the more I can tailor my visits. I love playing with puppies to tire them out, and have equal love for older pets, even those with special care needs.
About: Hi everyone! I’m in my second year of Vet school! I have a lot of experience given that I needed a lot to be able to pursue this career, but I truly enjoy spending my time with animals as well!! I am busy with school and clinic jobs here and there but always reach out first and we can see if our schedules align! I’m always happy to work around things to give your animals the care they need. :) I live in an apartment with a small yard but I love going out for walks so taking your dog out will not be an issue! But my apartment has plenty of windows for your dog or cat to enjoy looking at the outdoors!
About: I feel comfortable with dogs of any size, breed, or age. I am glad to follow any special instructions you give and do my best to keep your pets safe and as comfy as possible. I like to communicate or send pics while you're away so you can feel assured your pets are being well cared for. I have fostered many dogs (and adopted a few), so have experience with an array of personalities. I'm looking forward to meeting your pet family too. I work from 8 to 4:30 or 5, weekdays.

I will give your fur babies lots of love and send you pics or videos if you'd like. I am trustworthy and dependable.

“I appreciated Lorri's quick response and thoughtful approach to understanding the needs of my dogs. My dogs took to her immediately upon meeting. I felt at ease putting my trust in Lorri. My dogs and I are so glad to have her!”
About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life and have always loved walking them. I am very reliable when taking care of your pups and will love to play, walk, feed, or bathe your pets! I just moved to Champaign in August of 2026 to go to school at Parkland college for dental hygiene. I only have classes 3 days a week. Tues and Wednesday: 8am-4pm Thurs: 9am-10am and 1:30p- 3:20p I have an hour break between each class on Tues and Wed, so I have plenty of time to hang out with your pups! I do want to mention since I just moved here, so I’d prefer to stay overnight at my own place and come back first thing in the morning. However, I’m also happy to stay overnight if you prefer! When I lived with my family I had two sweet golden doodles. Now, my cat is staying with me. I am always giving him love and playing with him
About: Aside from growing up with dogs, I have had several positions at the Champaign County Humane Society, including the Foster Care Coordinator, the Animal Care Supervisor & Surgery Assistant (I have also worked in Adoptions and Medical Lab). Just some of my responsibilities included provided the feeding, cleaning, and general care for shelter pets, modifying challenging behavior in dogs, administering medication to animals, and prepping/monitoring patients under anesthesia (occasionally scrubbing in to emergency surgeries). Working in the shelter, I've handled reptiles, small mammals, cats, dogs, and birds. I've personally owned dogs, cats, birds, fish, and hamsters, but dogs will always have my heart! I grew up with a German Shepherd, but love working with any and all dogs. I am very patient with animals and understand that every dog is an individual who needs specific attention and unique care. My patience has proven to be a strong characteristic for dogs who are high energy, elderly, sick, or timid. Many of them need special time set aside so they are still enriched and kept healthy and happy, which is one of the most satisfying feelings in the world. Dogs truly are the best. I am an early riser and love staying active and engaged, whether that means sitting quietly with a pet or going on a long walk. I also have flexibility throughout the afternoon and evenings to drop-in during my work hours to let an animal out, give the animal medication, and/or tend to any other needs. Pet care is wholly part of my life and work. My main focus with any pet is to make the animal as comfortable as possible and adapt to the animal’s needs. I enjoy playing with animals, training them, and spending time getting to know their personalities.

We have booked our two doodles for neighborhood walks, play and feeding with Alicia a few times. She is responsible, responsive, communicates very well and seems to get along well with our crazies. I would say that my dogs love and appreciate her. Without a doubt, I would recommend Alicia.
Trey has been great! I’ve really appreciated having someone come during my the day to let my puppy Charlie out while I’m at work. Charlie has been a bit skittish outside, and Trey was very adaptable to what Charlie needed during this period of time. He made sure Charlie had some time to stretch his legs and play even if he wasn’t up for a walk!

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Savoy. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
