Cat Sitting in Urbana

“Chrissy was incredible! I was anxious about leaving my cat, especially because she’s skittish around people, but Chrissy went above and beyond to stay on contact with me and was so good with my cat. She’s wonderful!”

“Connie is wonderful with my cat. I always know he's in gold hands and don't have to worry about him when I'm away. She followed all care instructions and gave him lots of love!”

“Reliable and caring”

“Francesca is great at following directions, including for our cat who gets medicine twice a day, and she always goes above and beyond! Our cats love her, even our scaredy-cat that never comes out of hiding for anyone other than mom and dad. She sends detailed updates and great pictures so we know how our pets are doing and never have to worry.”

“Dominique was amazing with my 2 cats during all her visits! She responded quickly to messages and went above and beyond to care for my pets. I definitely recommend Dominique to anyone!”

“Judy did an excellent job caring for our Twin cats Salt and Pepper while we were on vacation. We came home to a clean place and happy cats. Judy provided pictures and great communication throughout the duration of the task. Salt and Pepper would be very exited to see Judy again”

“I will definitely be rebooking with Aubrey! She was great at sending updates and pictures of my fur child. She went above my expectations.”

“Absolutely the best Pet Sitter ever. I did not worry one second about my fur babies. She communicated everyday even though they didn’t always cooperate 🤦‍♀️. Definitely glad we found her and will be calling her anytime we travel. So awesome to be able to leave my babies with someone I know will take such exceptional care of them. Thank you again!”

Dorcas J.

“I can’t say enough great things about Valerie and the care she takes with our little one. This last time she was very flexible and was able to add an additional visit because our need changed. I highly recommend Valerie.”

Allen W.

“Alexis was a great caregiver for my sweet, old cat. On the first day, when Kippy did not appear to get her food and meds, Alexis searched and found her hiding place, thus ensuring Kippy got what she needed that morning. Alexis’s kind and gentle demeanor soon made Kippy lose her fear and she began greeting Alexis at the door. I would definitely hope Alexis was available the next time I need Killy care.”

About: I've done pet sitting for family, friends, and neighbors for most of my life. This includes care of dogs to include feeding, play, walking, and administering meds if applicable. I currently have a six year old English Bulldog who is a stubborn sweetheart and I regularly pet sit for a family member's pitbull mix. I will be available on marked days, most regularly weekends as well as selected weekday options as I have a flexible/remote work set-up. I take care of pets of my own (as well as children) so I can confidently fill in to care for your pet. I have reliable transportation and defined radius on my profile so I can arrange for several walks and in home check-ins and care throughout the day and evening. When/if I do board or care for a client's pet in my home, there is a fenced in backyard and one other dog in the home.

About: As a dog lover with experience in training and raising my own during quarantine, I would make sure your pet gets the specialized attention they need. I'm also available on short term notice and can work with your schedule to ensure your dog gets the care they need. Im currently completing my graduate degree at Vanderbilt University this summer online. I have class at 2-3:30 on Tuesdays, but for projects I can make my own schedule for those so I am generally flexible! I would treat your pet with the same love and care as if they were my own. Whether it be long walks, playing time, early mornings or late nights, I would make sure they feel safe and comfortable wherever they may be. I am also happy to provide any additional care or attention they need.

“Angela was great and I have used her twice! She is very attentive and sweet to my kitties. My cat requires medication and she was able to administer easily and stays communicative with lots of photos. She is great with all personalities of kitties (mine can be difficult).”

About: Hi there! I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. From the time I was little, pets have always been part of my life—and I know just how special they are to a family. That’s why I treat every pet like my own. I’m calm, careful, loving, and reliable. Whether I’m dropping in for a quick visit or taking your pup for a walk, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I’ll also leave your home just the way I found it—clean and respected. I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s specific needs, routines, or quirks, and I’ll always communicate openly so you feel at ease while you're away. I’d be honored to give your pet the love and attention they deserve and give you peace of mind in the process. Let’s chat about how I can best support you and your furry family member—I can’t wait to meet you both! Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I make space in my schedule—especially on weekends and holidays—to be available for walks and drop-ins. During the summer, my schedule is more flexible, so I’m available throughout the day. During the school year, my availability shifts more toward evenings and weekends. I plan ahead to ensure each visit gets my full attention, and I’m always happy to adapt my routine to meet a pet’s specific needs. Being around animals is something I genuinely look forward to—it doesn’t feel like a job, it feels like a joy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m always respectful of their space and routines. I follow all instructions carefully—whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, leash preferences, or favorite toys. I make sure doors and gates are securely closed and always keep pets leashed on walks unless directed otherwise. I stay calm and attentive, especially around other animals or unfamiliar environments, to keep your pet safe. My goal is to make sure your pet feels secure and happy while giving you peace of mind.

“Audrey took such wonderful, loving care of my cat. It took a few days for my cat to warm up to her, but once she did she couldn’t get enough of Audrey. I would definitely book Audrey again.”

“Cindy was so wonderful and patient with my 3 kitties who are stressed and scared when I leave, especially with one of mine being diabetic and requiring insulin shots twice a day! Thank you so much! Will definitely trust her to care for my kitties again.”

About: I've been a dog-mom to three very different dogs—a German Shepherd, a Rottweiler, and an Indian street dog rescue—over nearly 30 years. They were always part of the family, traveling with us across the world through military assignments and other moves. I've loved and cared for them through every stage of life, from their energetic puppy days to the challenges of old age, gaining plenty of experience with a range of personalities and needs. I recently said goodbye to Daisy, my loyal companion of 13 years, leaving a big hole in my heart. I’m currently not working and have very few time-bound commitments, making my schedule very flexible. I am available throughout the day and over the weekends. I live in a single family home with a small unfenced yard. I am in a residential community with plenty of space to walk and green areas. There are no other pets or kids in the house.

About: Ive loved animals my whole life. I've volunteered in two animal shelters working with all animals and have worked in dog daycare. I currently still volunteer in one of those shelters. I also have two cats at home. Working with animals has always been my dream and I hope to take care if your pets to make sure they are happy. While I do not own a dog myself, I enjoy being around them and spending whatever time that I can work them. Your dogs, cats, or any other pet will be very well taken care if and loved while on my care. Happy to help you out when you need it. While i'm a very shy person, I would be happy to speak to you. I have previously worked for two dog daycares. I have volunteered in a shelter with many animals and I am now a pet sitter :) I do not have a fenced yard so they would be brought back inside if in my home or owners home. Whatever is needed for them
