House sitter Job in Peoria, Illinois

I live in Peoria, and I will need a housesitter / petsitter while I am on vacation (approximately Jul 29 - Aug 11).

I have one dog (a very sweet, well-behaved pitbull who thinks she's a lapdog and who looks forward to her twice-daily walks to the nearby park), and an African gray parrot.

I also have a garden in my fenced-in backyard that will need minimum tending, and some potted plants (indoors and outside) that will need watering.

The right person must be friendly, trustworthy, and an animal lover!
