Pet care experience

Crazy cat lady at your service!

I am primarily a cat-sitter on Rover (I'm a current cat owner and grew up with many cats, both indoor and outdoor), though I also have a love for dogs and puppies! I have been a sitter on Rover for 3 years now, and I’ve found that I really love taking care of people’s animals. I am new to the Chicago area (just moved from Boston) and am looking to continue my Rover career here in Rogers Park! I am a full time church secretary and a freelance accompanist/singer, but I work hard to incorporate pet-setting into my life. My husband and I have a 4 year old, high energy tabby cat named Babs, whom we love with all our being. I will love your dog or cat as if they were my own and will go to all lengths to make sure they are comfortable and taken care of just as if you weren’t gone!

Safety, trust & environment

I am a very detail oriented person and will make sure to follow your care instructions exactly! I love cleaning and organizing, so you can be sure that I'll take care of your home and pet in a meticulous manner. I will make sure to spend equal time giving your pet physical attention and playing with them, (if they want it, of course!) or just sit with them as emotional support, if they prefer to be left alone. I write very detailed drop-in cards so you will know exactly what I did during my stay!

Erin was great! She was able to coax my shy little kitty out of hiding and gave her lots of snuggles and play time. It means so much to know I didn’t have to worry that my cat was being taken care of while we were away on vacation. Thank you Erin!

Erin is amazing. She took care of everything- went above and beyond to take care of our girls. She gave us the most detailed info about her visits and sent us tons of pictures. She was so pleasant and clearly gave them top notch care and love. This was our first time leaving our kitten alone and she made all of our anxiety about that at ease. We will definitely be returning clients of hers! Highly recommend,

41 to 100 lbs

Erin can host up to 1 drop-in per day
I prefer not to pet-sit for aggressive cats or dogs. I like to know beforehand if a pet is friendly around other dogs/cats before sitting them, and how they behave around people in general. I do not have an breed preferences, but I tend to do better with small/medium breeds of dogs!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
