Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving care when you’re not there!
Hi! I’m Ritika and I live with my partner Nico in Evanston, IL. We have over 10 years of dog care experience- from taking care of our own to helping out with friends and neighbors. We have a background with dogs of all sizes and senior dog care. I am a Northwestern graduate student with a flexible schedule and Nico is a design engineer who works from home. We have a great apartment with plenty of natural light and space to cuddle and play, located very close to several parks and walking trails in the area! Although we currently do not have pets of our own in the city, we’d love the share the joy by helping take care of yours :)

Ritika & Nicholas also care for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Ritika and Nicholas are caring, responsible professionals and animal lovers who have cared for our two rescue dogs many times over the last few years. They followed our "rules" regarding what we do and don't let our pets do in our home and they are great at getting our dogs out for walks/exercise and play time. Highly recommend!

Schedule
I am a full-time student, but my schedule is fairly open and flexible. My partner, Nico, is fully remote all days. Between the 2 of us, there will always be someone watching over your pet! We also frequently go out for walks/jogs and visit local parks and can take your pet out every couple of hours. We are available pretty much any weekdays and most weekends!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Although we don’t have a yard, our apartment is a spacious, 2-bed. We also have plenty of parks nearby that we love to frequent. We have space for a doggy bed and/or crate if needed!
A typical day
I love providing interactive play for your pets physically and mentally! We will go for long walks with lots of different smells, play fetch (if they enjoy it!), and hang out on the couch indoors with toys.
