About Jeff I am an experienced and reliable pet sitter, dog walker, and all around pet friend. Before moving to C-U and starting Your Pet’s Best Friend, I walked dogs in Washington, DC. Politicians, minor celebrities, and many other DC residents trusted me with their favorite pets. I gained experience working with a variety of animals and tailoring my services to the clients requests. I was a full-time dog walker/pet visitor Monday thru Friday, with additional pet sitting assignments as needed. Pet owners were devastated to learn that I was leaving the area.
Since starting Your Pet’s Best Friend in August of 2006, I have helped out over 70 Champaign, Urbana, Savoy, Mahomet, and Rantoul pet owners. Each month has been busier than the last and this has quickly become a full-time business.
There are many great things about being a professional dog walker and pet sitter. The most rewarding thing is being to help people when they feel like they are out of options. I can’t tell you how many times I have heard “I don’t know what we would have done if someone like you wasn’t around.” or “ It’s so helpful that your service exists.” It’s a great feeling to know that I am providing a service that people really need and appreciate.
Another great thing about my job is getting to know so many pets. Going to a client’s home where there is an excited pet wanting to be walked or played with always brings a smile to my face. Pets are always happy to see me because they come to realize that I am there only for them. Dogs know that when I show up we go for a nice long walk. Cats know that it is time for food, playing, or petting. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!
