Love and snuggles for the fur kids
Pet care experience
I've loved animals since I was very small, and always had a dog growing up. My beautiful girl Cookie (shown in profile picture) was the love of my life, who also had some special needs due to her previous traumas. I've discovered over time that for some reason even the most anxious of dogs feel safe and content with me, which I find heartwarming and motivating to continue showering these beautiful souls with love. I have been fostering and pet sitting both dogs and cats for many years, and find it really rewarding getting to know all the funny little personalities these adorable creatures have. Personally I've also had rabbits, guinea pigs, fish and turtles, and am great with plants too, so am very happy and capable to take care of any additional needs you may have in the home.
Reviews
Freya was great! She was very caring and attentive to my cat while I was away and took great care of him. I highly recommend her :)
Freya was lovely and took great care of our 3 kitties and apartment! I loved that she went out of her way to give our shyest cat attention and make sure he was feeling loved and cared for 😊
Freya is the best!!! She sent such great updates and did everything to make sure my cat was happy and healthy! I had no worries or reservations about how her visits were going and she was an excellent and flat communicator!!! Very very positive experience:)))
Freya was an amazing sitter! She sent so many detailed updates and sweet photos so that I didn’t have to worry about a thing. My cat Merlin definitely loved her, and she was on top of anything that he needed in her visits. I will absolutely give her a call next time Merlin needs a sitter! Thanks for everything, Freya! 😃
About Freya B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am a relaxed and tidy person, who prefers to clean as I go and keep things calm and comfortable. Having previously had a dog with special needs, I am meticulous with following instructions, as you know them best, and I understand what an impact even subtle changes to routines can have for some animals. Similarly, I spoil them within your preferred thresholds too. If they're not allowed on the couch or bed, they will never be on the couch or bed with me. I do enjoy spoiling them rotten, as all good baby sitters should, I want my stay to be a happy, safe and loving experience for your pet, to help ease the sting of missing you. I also like to provide regular photo updates, so you know how happy your smallie is, and can relax knowing they're well taken care of - again as per your preference.
Information Freya B. would like to know about your pet
Its really important for me to know any social fears or issues your dog may have, so I can manage them accordingly and minimise any triggers as much as possible. This enables me to provide the most safe and enjoyable experience for your pet.
A typical day
I love to take dogs for walks to interesting places full of sniffs (and ideally with minimal litter), whether that's a local park, or walking a different way, or going to their favourite location. When appropriate for the dog's personality, I also love taking them to dog parks to play with furry friends, play fetch and chasey.

Availability
I've just moved to New York from Australia on a Green Card, and work in the music/events industry, so I'm currently dog sitting as my primary focus, while I wait to find ongoing work in my field. This means I can maintain whatever schedule they need, and fit my life around them.
