Cat Sitting in State Road

“Rebecca is friendly and was interested in our animals.”

“Excellent first Rover experience! We were a little apprehensive to leave our girls, especially our older cat Blackberry with medical conditions, with someone through a website, but we were extremely pleased with the quality-of-care (and cute photos!) Michelle provided. Our directions were followed exactly and all three of our girls very happy and healthy when we returned. We would absolutely book with them again!”

“Jen is the absolute best!! Put this mama heart at ease coming to let the pups out and sending updates and pics throughout the visit! Top notch and so communicative! Thanks, Jen!”

“David was able to help us at the last minute. Roxy enjoys her visits with David as he follows her cues on what she needs from each visit ( cuddles, play, etc). Having David to care for her allows us to travel without the guilt.”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with 20+ years of dog care experience and a special place in my heart for both dogs and cats. I currently share my home with two English bulldogs, so I know all about the extra care and love our furry friends need. I’ve attended professional dog training and behavioral training, so I’m confident handling pups with different personalities and needs. I’m also experienced in administering medications and even shots, so you can feel at ease knowing your pet’s health is in safe hands. Whether it’s puzzles, playtime, cuddles, or specialized care, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own. 🐶🐱 I’d love the chance to meet your fur baby and give them the best care while you’re away! Because I work from home and create my own hours, I can easily make pets a priority. Whether it’s morning walks, afternoon playtime, or evening check-ins, I have the freedom to give them the attention they deserve. Caring for pets in someone’s home is a responsibility I take seriously. I’ve completed behavioral and training classes, know how to safely administer medicine and injections, and have experience working with pets that struggle with anxiety or aggression. This background allows me to provide safe, reliable care while building trust.

About: Hello! My name is Sam, and I’ve loved animals for as long as I’ve been able to walk and talk. I grew up surrounded by dogs and cats so caring for a wide range of animals has always been a natural part of my life. I’m currently earning my degree in Animal Science at the U of I, with plans to pursue either veterinary school or a career in animal conservation or animal control. I’ve wanted to join Rover ever since I was little and watched my aunt run a mini daycare out of her home. Since then, I’ve pet‑sat for neighbors, family friends, and anyone who needed an extra hand with their pets. This summer, I’m interning at the Vermillion County Animal Shelter to continue building hands‑on experience. I’ve also worked as a Cat Care Volunteer at the Champaign PetSmart, where I helped with daily care, cleaning, and socialization. I’m excited to bring my experience, reliability, and genuine love for animals to every pet I care for! I'm currently working a part-time internship so I have plenty of free time for your fur-babies on weekends (all day) and weekdays (before 11 and after 3)! I care for pets by following their normal routines, keeping their space clean, ensuring safety, and providing consistent attention, exercise, and monitoring so they stay comfortable and relaxed while their owners are away.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was around 5 years old. I have experience giving dogs pills, being consistent with training processes, and with senior dog care. I have also taken care of cats. I’m able to take care of dogs and cats in the mornings and evenings during the week and all day on weekends and holidays. I am a homebody so once I get done with work during the day, I am not leaving and play with my animals. I have a fenced in yard with a very friendly dog and cat. If needed, I have a room where I can separate my cat from other dogs to allow non-cat friendly dogs to stay. This room has his food, water, bed, toys, and litter box, while also being one I spend a large amount of time in so he is not lonely. My dog is fed once in the morning and is allowed to eat when he wants to and he runs outside in the backyard when he feels like it. I do adjust how often he gets fed and if he is free feeding when other animals are present. In clients' homes, I follow feeding and care instructions.

“I truly appreciated Katie to take care of my kitties when I was away. She loves my cats and my cats love her. They get along well at greet- meet section to understand my cats' habbits. I highly recommend Katie for taking care of your lovely pets when you are away. Thank you so much, Katie. Thank for the kitties' portraits in my kitchen. You are gifted and talented with arts and caring pets. Wish you all the best.”

“Carli did another great job with our dogs and cat while we were on a weekend trip! She made sure to give them plenty of time to run and play with every visit, and they love her company. She continues to be our go-to!”

“She’s is fantastic! Excellent communication and support. She was incredibly helpful and a true blessing. You can certainly trust her with your beloved pets!”

About: I’ve had all breeds and types of dogs throughout my life. Currently own an epileptic Dalmatian. Love my pups as if they are my children. I work full time at U of I but could come by before and/or after work Monday through Friday, and available anytime on Sundays and some Saturdays. I have a fenced in back yard with three pups and one cat. We go on walks and all live inside with us. Our pets are like our children very spoiled.

“Andrea is great from our first conversation we immediately felt comfortable leaving our babies in her care. Our pets take a while to warm up to people but so we were happy to be surprised that they were playing with Andrea, they could just tell she loved them very much ❤️ We would 100% recommend Andrea and our pets can’t wait to see her again.”

Nicole P.

“Madie is the best! She’s taken care of our cats for over a year now. She’s excellent with the cats, gives us lots of updates, and leaves the house looking clean and well-kept. We’re very glad to have someone we can trust with our cats!”

Rachel C.

“Zohreh really went above and beyond with caring for my cat, and was very attentive to her needs. She was great with communication and shared plenty of pictures each visit which I always appreciate.”

Erin N.

“Zoey took great care of our cat (who loved her) and was very attentive to the instructions we left her. She sent lots of photos during drop-ins, and even went above and beyond by watering our plants and bringing in mail (which included a hefty Chewy package). Would definitely recommend!”

Gavin H.

“Kate has taken care of Gracie a few times and even brought her out so Gracie could be a part of our wedding day. She is reliable and great with our pup. Definitely recommend.”
