Pet care experience
Hello! I'm a trustworthy, caring, pet & plant lover with years of pet- & home-sitting experience under my leash… er, belt. My very first foray into pet-sitting was as a young teenager, when a family friend asked me to care for their pet rabbit while away. That lovely little rabbit was a great teacher—one lesson that really stuck was how all creatures are sacred, and deserving of love & respect. These days I most commonly look after dogs & cats, but also have experience with smaller animals (fish, birds, iguanas..), and have sat house for friends, family & strangers alike, the world over. I returned to the US after living & working abroad for several years, and am currently based in lovely and iconic Highland Park. I work from home, so no problem keeping your four-legged(s) company through the days, and providing ample outdoor breaks. I also have a daily meditation practice, which many of the pets I look after find either odd, amazing, or nothing special at all. Some have even been known to join in with me! I’d love to meet you and your furries, so please don’t hesitate to reach out any time. And if you’d like to speak with any of my previous clients, they’d be more than happy to give a reference. Thanks for checking out my profile!
Reviews
Greg is the ideal pet and house sitter. He is incredibly conscientious and responsible, but also warm and genuinely interested in the welfare of your furry loved ones. He stayed at my house to take care of my two cats and my dog, and was super attentive to every detail of their care. One of my cats is blind and needs lots of scheduled medications, and she's sometimes not great when I return after a few days of being gone, but she was healthy and happy when I got back. It was obvious that all the animals had been loved and cared for as well as if I had been there. If you are looking for someone to care for your beloved pets, and you need someone you can trust in your home, I can't recommend Greg highly enough.
So happy to have found Greg through friends who booked him on Rover. It was a last minute holiday sit, he stayed at my home with my 2 year old dog who can be a bit rambunctious at times. Greg asked all the right questions - about both my home and my dog - which made me feel like everything was in great hands. He even fixed my janky doorknob when it fell off, and offered to descale my espresso machine which was overdue for a cleaning. And he sent the best updates throughout the day so I knew Enzo was having a great time. It’s the first time I’ve ever booked through Rover to have someone stay in my home, and so glad I did! Would definitely recommend. Dog and house were well taken care of!
GREG IS AWESOME. He took fabulous care of our 3 cats and our (3-legged) dog over the holidays, and I swear left the house cleaner than he found it. HIGHLY recommend him.
Responsible and reliable! Felt confidence leaving Ella and Charlie with Gregg. He did a great job.

Information Greg F. would like to know about your pet

A typical day
I love to walk & hike! Not only is it one of the oldest and best forms of exercise, it's just a great way to see and get to know a new place/neighborhood. I'm happy to do short walks around, and also up for a nice hike through fields and mountains, location and pet preference permitting. Love to throw a ball around with a dog who likes to retrieve, and I'm up for just about any preferred playtime activity!

Availability
As mentioned, I work from home. I'm online with clients for several hours of the day. All I really need is a good wifi connection and a (relatively) quiet place to work. My schedule is also quite flexible, so I can set longer breaks and rearrange my start and end times to better suit your pet's needs.
