“Annadel was so sweet and patient. I’ve never used Rover before and she helped me every step of the way. We’ve never used a over night sitter before so my nerves were through the roof. But her constant updates quickly calmed me. Bonnie will definitely be back. Thankyou to you and your family for being so inviting to my baby”
“Always trust Lainey with my girl! She has taken care of her as she has grown up and has gotten to know my puppy so well! My dog gets to go on vacation when she boards with her!”
“WOW. Feiran truly exceeded our expectations and was perfect for Foxxy's dog vacay. She was always quick with her responses and eager to listen to our specific instructions, easing our fears. Foxxy is tough to please, and she got along fine with Feiran's dog, as well as some other friends that stopped along. Knowing that our hosts would be home all day really made the difference for me. Foxxy didnt' have a dull moment with her twice daily visits to the park, along with a few bonus hikes that really worked her out! It was a treat to receive daily photo updates to see that she was having a great time, and in good hands. Foxxy even starred in two music videos during her vacay! We now have some lasting memories of her good times.Thanks again Feiran for being a wonderful host and a true pal to our red dog... she'll definitely be back!”
“Caitlin was a great boarding host! We left our 1 year old mix Ursa with her for a week; it was our first time leaving our pup for a vacation and she helped ease our fears! You could tell she knew what she was doing; she had her own meet & greet, notes, and sent multiple updates and pictures while we were gone. Will definitely rebook whenever we're out of town :)”
“Kellie was wonderful! She was thoughtful and asked all the right questions to make sure she could give my dog Jersey the best care possible. I'll definitely be looking to Kellie for my future pet-sitting needs!”
“Serina watched my dog, Rita, over Christmas and I was so thankful to leave her in good hands. Serina provided daily updates, tons of photos, and was flexible and communicative. I was able to enjoy time with my family knowing I could trust my dog was well taken care of and well loved.”
“Rae took such good care of our girls. They went on lots of walks! One of our dogs is diabetic and she gave her insulin twice a day. She sent lots of pictures and reported how they were doing. I would definitely recommend her!”
“Our two dogs boarded with Milo for a week. We can tell from the pictures, and their attitude when we picked them up, that they were happy and well-cared for. They especially got lots of snuggles, their favorite thing in the world! We would be happy for our dogs to stay with Milo again in the future.”
About: I am currently a veterinary student at uiuc looking to watch dogs in the morning before class and in the afternoons/ evenings after class. Excited to meet you and your pet! Full time veterinary student. I would be able to take care of your pet before 7 am and after 5pm throughout the week days! Weekends are generally free. I can easily crate your dog if needed, go on walks, place a harness and observe the dogs while within the home. I am excited to give a lot of loving and attention to your pets.
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: I’ve taken care of pets all my adult life. Throughout the years I’ve had 3 large mixed breed dogs all adopted from shelters. I have also had 2 cats. I will welcome your potty trained dog into my home. We have a nice sized , fenced yard and a great neighborhood for walks. I’m currently working part time . I am off in the summer. When I work it is no longer then 4-5 hours (usually much shorter) so I can be home for your dog’s bathroom breaks. I welcome all house trained, non destructive dogs into my home. I have a fenced yard and can crate your dog if that is what your dog is used to . I don’t have a crate but you would be welcome to bring one over.
“Christina is awesome. The minute I met her I recognized such a positive energy with her, and my pup loved her! Not having to board my dog at a kennel made my vacation even better and it’s about the same price! Christina sent pics and updates, TOTES recommend!”
“Anne and Preethi were phenomenal with our pups Lola and Rosie. They accommodated our needs for scheduling flexibility on short notice and took care of our pups during one of the busiest weeks for our family (welcoming a new baby!). This allowed us to prioritize our family needs while ensuring that our pups were taken care of in a happy and safe environment. We definitely look forward to using their services again in the future!”
“Megan was welcoming to our dog. She sent photos and updates. Much appreciated. This was our dog's first stay and she did well. Megan will be looking after our dog for a longer stay later this month.”
“I can’t recommend Rachel enough! She took incredible care of my dog while I was away for a couple of weeks. He got plenty of exercise with walks, trips to the river, and adventures in the forest preserves. She even treated him to an ice cream after a long, fun day in the sun! Her communication was top notch, she sent frequent updates with details about his day and tons of great pictures that gave me total peace of mind. It was clear she treated him like one of her own. If you’re looking for someone who goes above and beyond, she’s the one!”
“Abri and Justin were wonderful hosts. Athena has some separation anxiety issues, but they were extremely patient and understanding. They sent frequent updates and pictures, and very extremely responsive to any communication. Would highly recommend if you're looking for a sitter.”

Sarah F.
“Sarah would be an amazing pet caregiver because she is one of the most responsible and caring people I know. She works harder than anyone else I've ever met and she gives everything she does 110%. Sarah has an amazing ability to multitask and knows how to manage her time and priorities. She is currently in vet school and has a lot of experience working hands on with animals of all kinds. She cares so much for animals and I know she would take extra care for the animals she is responsible for.”
