House Sitting Staley

“Brittnee is an amazing dog sitter! She took such great care of our puppy fisher! Followed all instructions and even sent us go pro photo and video. Fisher was in great hands and got lots of love from her!”

“Tanya provided exceptional care for our cat and two dogs while staying over a long holiday weekend in our home. She asked excellent questions during our "meet and greet," so when it came time for us to leave our animals we knew they were in good hands. She arrived to house sit early afternoon on Friday and left late on Monday to accommodate our travel schedule. Our animals each have particular needs and personality quirks. For instance, we have one high energy dog that requires oral medication, frequent potty breaks, and long walks. Our other dog is content sleeping all day and needs to be convinced to take short walks! Plus, the energetic dog will eat the lazy dog's food if given the opportunity, so we feed them separately. Then, our cat is low maintenance, but still needs food, water, affection, and to have her box cleaned daily. Finally, the dogs wake up at 5am for breakfast (whether we're awake or not). Caring for the three of them is a lot of work and Tanya did a great job attending to their needs! We came home from vacation to happy, heathy pets and a clean house. We could not have asked for a better pet sitter. I highly recommend Tanya and would absolutely employ her services again.”

“Johanna was wonderful with my animals. Tonks liked her as soon as she saw her. My cat, Cloe, who doesn’t normally get seen snuggled up with Johanna. Will definitely use her again.”

“She did great with my corgi and catered to all his needs. She sent plenty of pictures and updated me throughout the entire weekend. Would definitely recommend to anyone.”

About: I have been trusted with the responsibility of pet sitting since I was able to drive. Whether it is friends, family, neighbors, or friends of friends, I have always been someone my circle feels like they can depend on to take care of their homes & precious fur babies! I have experience with dog walking, house sitting, as well as drop by pet sitting. I have also been fortunate enough to have a dog of my own, Ginger, who is a 7 year old Bernadoodle! I am currently post grad working a part-time hybrid social media marketing position in town that only requires me to be on-site 2-3 days a week. Getting to spend time with animals during my down time would be a dream come true for me as I would feel great not only filling a need but getting to hangout with new fur friends while I do it! I will ensure your pet is consistently cared for and is provided with everything they may need. It is my goal to help them stay on their normal routine as much as possible while you are gone. They will be fed regularly, always have fresh water, and always be given the loving they deserve!

“Katie worked so patiently and well with our excitable puppy, and stayed in regular communication with us while we were away. She went above and beyond to take excellent care of him—which we appreciate very much. Thank you so much!”

“Mindy took care of my higher energy dog out of my home for 5 days while we were away. It was my first time having a sitter in my home like this and Mindy was absolutely amazing. She was wonderful in making sure all of my concerns were addressed and that she had all of the information she needed to provide high quality care to my pup. She sent me lots of pictures and videos and I could tell Mindy was going above and beyond to meet my dog's needs.”

“Melissa did an amazing job taking care of our furry baby! She was easy to reach and responded immediately when we reached out. Loved the doggy pics we got while away! We would definitely invite Melissa back to help out!”

“Cory was an excellent dog walker and sitter for Hugo. He communicated really well throughout, was attentive to Hugo’s needs, and took great care of him while we were travelling. We felt completely at ease knowing Hugo was in such good hands. We’d definitely recommend Cory and look forward to having him care for Hugo again in the future.”

“Michelle was great with our dog, Duke. This is the second time she watched him, and he was SO excited to see her! Unfortunately, our address wasn't updated in Rover and so she had to go across town out of her way first before coming to the correct address. Despite our inconveniencing her, she was still willing to stay a little late if we needed her to. We really appreciated her patience with both US and with Duke :)”

“Lauren was great! Would highly recommend, she was communicative, showed up when scheduled, and really cared for Chloe.”

“Heather was absolutely amazing watching my dog. She communicated how he was doing with lots of pictures. Its really made being away from my fur baby a lot easier. Thank you Heather so much!!!”

“We had the pleasure of having Jocelyn care for our three cats while we were away at a music festival, and couldn't be happier with her service. From the moment we met her, she was incredibly kind and attentive to our pets' needs. Throughout our time away, Jocelyn kept us updated with numerous pictures of our cats eating and hanging out with her. These updates were so comforting and made us feel at ease knowing our babies were in great hands. One of our cats has asthma and requires an inhaler, which was a concern for us. Jocelyn was fantastic about giving us detailed updates on how he was taking his medication, which reassured us immensely. Even when we didn't have cell service, we felt completely at ease knowing Jocelyn was taking such excellent care of our pets. Her dedication and love for animals shine through in every interaction. We highly recommend Jocelyn to anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet-sitter. She went above and beyond to ensyre our cats were happy and well-cared for, and we are incredibly grateful for her help.”

“Mark was fantastic! We were out of town for nearly a week the first time Mark house/dog-sat (he had previously walked our pup), and Mark handled everything. Most importantly, our dog loves him! But Mark also brought in the mail, kept an eye on things around the house during some large storms, and communicated with us regularly. The day we were coming home, Mark was willing to stay later during a tornado watch when our flights were delayed. He also left the house very clean in terms of dishes and laundry, which was not required but a nice way to come back from a trip. We will definitely be using Mark again in the future!”

About: I grew up with dogs and have house sat my brother's dog on numerous occasions throughout the time I've been in the Champaign area. I have also house sat cats for a friend back in Indiana. I have also house sat my parents' dog on numerous occasions. Walking dogs of various sizes is no trouble for me, and I honestly just love animals in general. I love to play with them, talk to them, and love on them as if they're my own if people let me! As of right now, I have plenty of time to play with your pets! Unless I have prior commitments, I am unlikely to refuse a request. I grew up with dogs, and I've house sat cats before, as I've mentioned. They always had food, water, playtime, and plenty of love and attention as they saw fit. I treat others' pets as if they're my own

“Ashley was absolutely fabulous taking care of my Old English Sheepdog Whimzy while I was away in France for almost 2 weeks. I hope to have her take care of Whimzy again soon. Highly recommend!”

About: I bring years of hands-on animal care experience from veterinary clinics, kennels, and long-term pet sitting, including special-needs care for a senior dog who requires diapers, hourly potty breaks, medication management, and a strict diet. My background in veterinary support and my 5-year commitment to caring for three dogs from one family means I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and fully comfortable supporting pets with complex routines. I treat every animal with patience, confidence, and genuine love, giving owners peace of mind while they’re away. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because, with school wrapping up, I have plenty of time to focus on consistent, reliable visits. I plan my days around each pet’s needs, keeping feeding, walks, and medications on schedule while balancing a few prior commitments on set days. For the most part, I’m available daily, which allows me to offer flexible booking, dependable check-ins, and attentive pet-focused care that never feels rushed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine exactly, keeping feeding, meds, and potty schedules consistent while maintaining a calm, clean environment. I provide gentle companionship, monitor behavior and health closely, and send regular updates so owners feel connected and reassured. My goal is to respect the home, reduce stress, and ensure every pet feels safe and understood.

“Kimberly was great with my Lab Mix. She sent updates from their walks, and remembered specific details about Leroy and his habits. She also got him to walk with a harness, which I had not been able to do.”

“MEGAN AND ERIC ARE THE BEST!! They took expert, loving care of our pets! They played with them and sent pictures of a game of fetch with our dog. They even stayed to comfort her during a scary thunderstorm. They're truly wonderful people. Highly recommend.”

“Sarah was amazing! She took such good care of our high energy dog and 2 socially-picky cats. We will definitely rebook in the future. She's the best!”
