About: I have Pet Sitting Insurance, WFH, & accept only one furry friend at a time! For safety reasons, please do not book me if your dog is not leash trained. My name is Ericka and I got my first dog, Sadie, at 16. When I was 21, I got my own dog Frannie while in college. I have been pet sitting for friends and family the past five years and have experience caring for dogs with separation anxiety and senior dogs. I have experience with giving dogs eyedrops and pills via pill pockets. I can administer medication like these. I would need to know if your dog has any aggression towards receiving medication or if they like to sneakily spit pills out. I currently work from home full time, so your furry friend will be constantly supervised! I will be able to play with them when they want and provide many potty breaks throughout the day. I live in a second floor apartment where there are stairs. If your dog is not crate trained that is okay - I work from home and your dog will be constantly supervised.

About: I have a fenced in yard and a 5 year old female husky who loves making new friends. I am a PE teacher so I'm home all day during the summer. I love dogs and I would treat your furry friend as if they were my own. I have the availability to take them on walks and let them out as much as necessary. I am happy to communicate with you and learn the needs of your pet. Would love to establish consistent work with the same dogs. Please consider me as your next dog sitter. I would be happy to talk with you and answer any questions you may have I stop home for lunch daily to let the dogs out, and then I'm home by 3 during the week. I have a fenced in yard so it's easy for me to let the dogs out, as well as take them for walks or hikes. I will cater to each dog's individual needs. My goal is to make your dog feels comfortable, because that's how I want to feel when I entrust my dog with someone.

About: I am an extreme animal lover with a great passion for loving and training dogs. My friends and family call me dr Doolittles daughter because no matter where I am animals gravitate towards me. I am flexible and open to any animals personality and quirks. I have had many dogs and other pets in my life and I treated each as part of the family. I take in any pet as my own and am usually the first to offer to pet sit for any of my friends. I also have potty and obedience trained most of the dogs in my family so I am very comfortable with all ages and stages of animals. I also have a flexible schedule and availability that should fit most families needs. I hope to meet many more furry friends through rover, the more the merrier ! I run a seasonal family business which frees me up in the winter time. And leaves me a more flexible schedule in the summer time. I care for every animal as if they were my own. I intend to do what ever it takes to make sure that animal is happy in my care.

About: Hello fur parents! I have been a fur mama for more than a decade and have watched many dogs and cats since I could remember. I'm a current proud owner of an American Bully, the most sweetest and gentle giant of a dog she is. She loves all dogs and cats and is very good around them. I give constant attention to any dogs or cats under my care. To the point where they will get spoiled with love. When they are in my care I treat them as if they are my own babies. I work overnight shifts during the week, which means my days are free to spend quality time with your fur babies. I’m very hands-on and love staying active with pets. Plus, my significant other works from home, so there’s always someone present to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. I have a good size fenced backyard for the dogs to roam around and play. I do have a dog play pen to separate dogs if needed. I'm great with first aid, medication and care for your loved one. My dog is not crated and she likes to roam around and usually just lays in her bed or on the couch. Your fur babies are more than welcome to sleep on the dog beds that we have and on our comfy couch too! I like to wipe my dogs paws after every walk or play outside and I would do the same to your dog. Please let me know if your dog doesn't like their paws to be touched. If I do have to leave the house for like an errand I always have a camera to keep watch on. I love to send pictures and video updates of your fur babies and make sure they are well taken care of.

About: I was always had furry siblings but have graduated to a cat mama. I enjoy creating personal heavens for our companions. Reliable, punctual and kind. I have a full-time job that pays the bills but I am looking for ways to feed my soul. Overnights are great as well as drop ins. I would prefer to host at client's homes as my current home does not allow dogs. Willing to board or take cats overnight. Let's make it a sleepover!

About: I have lots of animals and lots of love. I am great with all animals and even insects, reptiles and more. I am local to Crete, Illinois. I work a remote job, full-time job, so I am extremely flexible with your needs. I take care of my cats bright and early and throughout the day. **NOTE** I work a seasonal, part-time, job for the International Hotrod Association (IHRA) Spring-Summer, therefore, my booking will be closed and reopen over the winter-time. I practice proper training, obedience, proper health care, lots of love and more. I use this application to provide services and also book services for my pets as well, so I expect my care provider to give the same top notch care for my fur babies.

About: I love animals. I have owned a horse, birds and fish. Although I never owned a dog or cat, Friends and family have always asked me to pet sit and I have always been more than happy to ablige. As a former letter Carrier, my favorite customers were four-legged. I am retired and want to stay active. Who can keep you more fit and active than a dog that is waiting for a walk-date? When I have dog sat, I usually go for multiple walks. I can walk all day. The dogs love it and it makes them tired. Animals need mental stimulation outside of their house or yard just like people. I try to find things to keep us both busy and happy.

About: I come from a family of animal lovers so I have had and have taken care of many pets. I also am an avid dog walker and love to play with my dog in the backyard. I am currently home now and so going to someone’s home to take care of the family pet is something that can easily fit my schedule. I have my dog on a schedule for her feedings and taking her outside (of course there’s flexibility). And so I will respect the pet owner’s requests for his/her pet.

About: I grew up with big and small dogs and have always loved different species of animals. If not immediately, with time a loyal dog and cat are bound to warm up and head to me for love. It never fails. I respect their space and boundaries and reinforce what you have taught them once they’re comfortable(great if you’re teaching them new tricks and/or potty training pups). I believe space is more than likely the answer as our little ones need time to observe and follow their intuition in a calm environment. I have done in-house sits (for people home often but work unpredictable hours), drop ins, and full house sits for big to small cats and dogs. More reviews on TrustedHouseSitter (I can WhatsApp you a link!) I am a semi truck driver who loves community. As of right now, I am on the road everyday unless I have plans. This includes, accommodating you, your fur family, and/or your home while you’re away. Contact me if you have any questions, I am open to working with your times and making something work through travels. :) I keep the pets protected by keeping everything as my client left it, scanning for any possible hazards, and checking in with client if I see something out of the ordinary or needing adjustment on security. The main thing I ask of clients is please let me know your dogs personality as best as you can and how they’re expected to be cared for(medication, frantic behavior, playfully aggressive, etc). Also, if I am house sitting and you need additional cleaning services, please message me and I’ll be sure to assist you on how we can create a cleaner environment and pricing. Anxiety will veer in clearer space, for you and your little friend. I’m here to make things easier and more fun! :) I have additional reviews on TrustedHouseSitters. Once you send me a request I can provide a link (or screenshot if Rover doesn't allow it.)
