Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Tracy. I grew up with dogs and consider them to be more than just pets –– they’re part of the family! Throughout the years, I’ve had many family pets and several of my own. Andy, my first pup, had a lot of energy. He was a Poodle mix and could get a little feisty, but since he was my first boy, I miss him terribly. Next came Princey, my cat. I rescued him off the street, and he moved with me from Seattle to NYC. He was a great cat with a fun personality, and he passed away at the old age of 20. Currently, I have Oskar, a precious mini Dachshund who I adore. All of my pets have had unique personalities, and working with animals is my greatest pleasure. I live in a two-story home that I’ve set up with ramps and low furniture to protect the backs of my pooch and our four-legged guests. I also have a backyard that’s perfect for digging and taking naps in the sun. My home is very large, so there’s plenty of room to run around. I usually keep dogs on the main level of my home so that they can easily access the yard. Oskar is always eager for a new playmate, and he makes a good co-host! My neighborhood is walkable with lots of friendly people and pets. I work from home and make my own schedule. My availability for pet sitting is open and flexible.
Reviews
Tracy was great! So glad to have her in our neighborhood. Excellent communicator and sent tons of pictures to keep us in the loop on all the fun Phoebe and Oscar were having. Will definitely use again!
Tracy is amazing! She set updates and photos throughout the day, and i can tell my dog really enjoys being with her! He gets to run around in a yard and hang out with Oskar! Will definitely book again.
Tracy and Oskar took great of our Larry. Would definitely book with them again!

Information Tracy F. would like to know about your pet
I specialize in Weiner dogs and love hosting Dachshunds. I know about their special needs and can provide knowledgeable and experienced care. However, I’m open to caring for all breeds. Is your pooch aggressive? Do they have separation anxiety? Do they have any medical issues? What are their favorite toys, treats, and activities?
A typical day
When I meet a new pet, I try to give them some time to get to know me until we build up trust. I’ll talk to them in a gentle voice, avoiding sudden movements. Offering treats can help them get acquainted with me, too. Next, we’ll play a game or with their favorite toy. When we go on walks, we’ll probably head to a nearby park. For longer stays, we might make a trip to the local dog park. Your pup can explore my backyard during the day as well. The downstairs area of my home is huge and open for my furry guests to explore and hang out in on rainy days. As a dog mom, I know how important it is to know how your fur baby is doing while you’re away. I’ll send you updates with photos during our time together. I want you to feel secure and in touch with what your dog is up to while you’re away.
