Pet Boarding in Urbana

About: I an 3 year veterinary nurse with 2 years experienced in pet sitting . I will treat every pet as if they were my own. I understand that animals need more than just food and walks—they need love, attention, and a calm, reassuring presence while you’re away. With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals, I tailor my care to fit each pet’s personality and routine. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or medication needs, I’m reliable, attentive, and always on schedule. I also provide regular updates, so you stay connected with your furry friend. Safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities. You can count on me to ensure your pet feels at home—even when you’re not. Trust, compassion, and care define my service. Let me give you peace of mind, and give your pet the love they deserve. I am currently a part time veterinary nurse so. I tend to be able to schedule myself very well to make sure I prioritize every pet I’m sitting and make sure they always come first. I’m deeply committed to the well-being of my clients animals. I pay close attention to their physical and emotional needs, ensuring they’re fed a proper diet, have clean water, and live in a safe, comfortable environment. I have 3 dogs and 1 cat who are literally my children. I currently don’t have a fenced in yard due to no need for one because my pets are really well and staying on my property. So when it comes to pet sitting in my home , depending on how trained the animals are I am some times able to have them roam free with my pets along with supervision or I tend to leash walk if that’s way doesn’t work out . I prioritize myself on keeping my pets safe and other people’s pets safe as well.

“Katherine did an amazing job taking care of our two French bulldog boys for a week. Im a worrier and one of those crazy frenchie moms and she made it possible for me to rest and relax for a week knowing that they were well taken care of. She sent lots of pictures and videos and they had the best week. If you are nervous about using Rover, choose Katherine. She will love your fur babies!”

“Heavyn was wonderful!! We had to board our pup for a long stretch for our wedding and honeymoon; during that time, she was super responsive and sent lots of pics of our little guy. It was such a relief to know he was well taken care of during such a hectic time!”

Christiana H.

“Ezgi was wonderful with our sweet Cookie. We got daily updates and pictures and that made being away from her easier. We’ll definitely use Ezgi again! Recommend!!”

Angie P.

“Kristol was very sweet and accommodating! Had a great backyard for Kobe to run around in and an equally energetic pint sized friend for him to play with! I received photos and updates regularly. Thank you so much for caring for my little guy over the weekend!”

Danielle M.

“Piper had so much fun! Jordan always responded super fast and sent us pictures. We will definitely book again the next time we need boarding. Thanks again for watching her!”

Adia W.

“It was only one night but I am beyond pleased!! Karen updated me constantly and sent pictures. She treated my babies just as her own. I have to say my boys refuse to eat anywhere but home (even when they come with us) and there was absolutely no issue there. They had so much play time and came home completely exhausted. I’m a little jealous how much they loved it with here. I’m surprised they wanted to come home. Absolutely can not recommend Karen enough! I will be using her again. Thank you for taking such great care of them!”

Katie C.

“Ashlee is AMAZING! She took such great care of my fur babies. One of my dogs is quite timid, but she warmed up to Ashlee immediately! She also was so understanding that one of my dogs still has accidents from time to time. She wasn’t fazed at all by that. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my fur babies were safe and taken care of! Will definitely be using Ashlee again! Absolutely the perfect dog sitter!”

Katrina M.

“Ashlie did a great job taking care of Scout. She played with Scout and sent me pictures with updates. She was even very flexible when I had a family emergency and needed Scout to stay longer. I highly recommend Ashlie!”

Sherri H.

“Our girls loved every minute! We were very pleased and we will definitely use her again! Highly recommended!”

Mariah B.

“Audrey is absolutely the best person I could have found for our girl. She is thoughtful and loving and kept us informed of everything our girl was doing. I could not imagine a more safe, healthy and happy place for her to be.”

Kimberly S.

“Niella was absolutely fantastic to work with. It was my first time using Rover and very first time leaving my pup so I was very nervous. We left our pup for 10 days with Niella and her wonderful family. From the first day, she made me feel very reassured in that my dog was in good hands. Very reliable with communication, really went above and beyond sending me pictures and videos. I had a last minute complication with my return flight and had to come pick up my pup a day later than we had scheduled, Niella was very accommodating to the last minute change. My dog had the time of his life and they really took care of him like as if he was one of their pets. Would 100 percent recommend.”

Jannise S.

“Angela always takes such good care of our pug! We get lots of pictures while we are away which always makes me feel good😊 our boy loves their house. We’d recommend her to anyone!”

Deanna C.

“They took great care of our pup. The communications were fantastic. We got daily updates. Due to a major flight delay we would have been very late picking our dog up. Mahamat was very helpful both offering to figure a way to extend the booking or getting our dog ready early so our son could pick him up and take him to our house. I would 100% use them again and recommend them.”

Steve & Jen W.

“Gracie was awesome with excellent communication. Our young German Shepherd Luci had a great time at their place and we will absolutely use them again.”

James T.

“I hate to leave a review and share our secret spot but... Anna was amazing with our skittish/grumpy mini dachshund. She walked, played with, and even did training with her. We received many pictures and videos while we were away. Our dog received so much attention and toy play that she came home and slept for about 3 days! We will definitely use Anna again!”

About: I have always had dogs and a couple of cats. Looking to help others ensure that their pets are taken care of while they are away from home I work full time and travel some but am looking to help cover for those who work a lot and want their pets to be loved on. Currently only providing drip in care but will change when our current pets pass on. We love dogs and cats but want to be a bit more free to travel

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have always been comfortable caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. From energetic puppies to older dogs who need a slower pace, I understand how to adjust care to fit each pet’s needs. I regularly pet sit for friends and family, including overnight stays, drop-in visits, and walks. I’m experienced with feeding routines, administering medications, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. In addition to my pet care experience, I work as a nurse, which has made me extremely attentive, responsible, and detail-oriented. I’m comfortable handling emergencies, following specific care instructions, and noticing subtle changes in behavior that others might miss. Your pet’s safety, health, and happiness are always my top priority. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and love while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands. 💓 As a nurse, I work 3 days a week. However, my husband would be available to take care of your pet until I am off. I am completely open on my off days to spend around the clock care with your fur babies. A day with me will include walks, lots of play in my fenced in yard, and plenty of cuddles and love! I provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for pets in my home. I have a fully fenced-in yard where dogs can play and get plenty of exercise, always under supervision. I have two friendly golden retrievers who are well-socialized and used to being around other dogs. I always introduce new dogs slowly and carefully to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and energy level to ensure a good fit. Inside, pets have a clean, calm space to relax and are treated like part of the family. I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine for feeding, potty breaks, and rest to help minimize stress while you’re away. As a nurse, I’m very attentive and detail-oriented. I’m comfortable administering medications if needed, monitoring for any changes in behavior or health, and responding quickly in case of an emergency. Dogs are never left unattended in the yard, and I prioritize safety at all times—secure gates, supervised play, and a controlled environment. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for.

“Jessie had a great time and was well cared for! Would do it again!”

About: I have a wide range of experience with animals (dogs, cats, horses, rats, rabbits, goats, etc.) I grew up around animals and am currently going through school on the pre-vet track. I have helped some friends and neighbors care for their pets (baths, walks, nail clipping, etc.) I also currently work at petsmart I currently work and go to school. My classes aren’t long and are spaced out throughout the day so I have free time in between classes. I work 4 days a week, usually for 3 hour shifts during the week I have one pet in my home and it’s my border collie Bailey. If your dog needs some training, I can help provide that as I used to train dogs from time to time and teach basic commands. I’m also very active and am happy to take your dog for a walk or on a trip to the dog park
