Flexible Schedule, Fenced Dog Run!
Pet care experience
I’m Tracy and I love dogs! There’s nothing better than having the company of another dog, especially because my dog Charlie loves to meet new friends. I am also dedicated to providing reliable and quality service at an affordable rate for pet owners who need to travel. I work from home two days a week and have a flexible schedule, so pet sitting allows me to get all the puppy loving I want in, while also giving back to my community. Since I was eight, I’ve been a dog owner! As I’ve grow up, I’ve adopted three dogs, and been a pet sitter for five years. I also worked part-time at a Doggie Daycare center for a few months. Right now, I’m the doggie mom to my pup, Charlie, a five year old Maltese. He’s so friendly and playful and enjoys sharing his toys, space, and treats with our furry visitors. When your pooch is under my care, their happiness and comfort is my number one priority. For my canine clients, I always make sure to be attuned to what they want to do in the moment and provide for them! I’m happy to meet your pup at their level, no matter what it is. Whether that be high-energy playtime or lots of cuddles, I’m there for them. For my human clients, I’ll always keep open lines of communication at all times in case we need to exchange any information or ask questions. Likewise, I’ll always send daily updates with accompanying pictures so you can see how much fun your pup and I are having together! You might call me the “Pup-a-Razzi”. I live in a wonderful apartment in Ravenswood, a very dog and family friendly neighborhood. Our apartment is large, warm, and cozy. Our building also includes a fenced dog-run, dog-wash facility, and lots of grass and trees around our apartment. Though I’ll be the primary caregiver for your pup, I do live with my husband who is always there for extra snuggles and love! I'm interested in a holistic approach to dog care so I enjoy reading research about pet nutrition, the latest pet care products, and trying to leave my job in financial marketing to pursue something in the pet industry! I also love to cook vegan meals in my free time, travel, see movies, and read. Your pup would be welcome to join me in any of these activities.

Everything was great! I got lots of pictures and Katie was very very happy to get a good run around in the dog run. Recommended highly.
Tracy is caring and amazing dog sitter!!..She took instructions carefully and treated rocky(my dog) like her very own pooch...She regularly send updates/pictures of any activities and make sure rocky is safe fed and well taken care off..To this day she's still rocky's dog sitter!! Keep up the excellent job!!..
Tracy took great care of Shady, communicated promptly, and was very helpful in accommodating our last minute sitting needs. She clearly is experienced with dogs and Shady loves her dog Charlie. She sent lots of pictures which we really appreciate.
Tracy always takes such great care of my little guy, she makes it so easy to drop/pick up, sends lots of updates, and I can tell he absolutely loves his time at her place and with her pup Charlie.

Information Tracy F. would like to know about your pet
Before a stay, I’d be happy to set up a meet and greet so you can get to know me a little better. I also like to know about your dog’s normal walking, feeding, and sleeping schedule so I can do my best to stick to the normal routine they’re used to. Additionally, does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? Lastly, I love learning about their favorite toys and treats so I can spoil them a bit!
A typical day
Because I work from home two days a week and have a flexible schedule, I can provide care to pets who need a little more attention! We’ll be sure to hit the park or trails for exercise and snuggle up on the couch for cuddles! Whatever your dog needs for a safe and happy stay, I’ll provide.
