Cozy Home in McGinley Square

Pet care experience

Animal lover + artist looking for pups to entertain and care for in her home! I am experienced a dog owner, with a small mutt of my own. She loves having friends over! I have experience with many different breeds and ages, and love them all! I've fostered rescue dogs with medical and behavioral issues, so I am confident in caring for them. I believe in providing personalized care for each dog and encourage owners to let me know any likes, dislikes, and quirks about their pup so we can make them feel at home. We love all animals and respect their need for exercise, diet, mental stimulation and affection. I currently work part-time and go to grad school (on-line) so your dog is never left alone for more than a few hours. *Please note, I believe in positive reinforcement and will not implement negative reinforcement techniques on your dog including prong collars. All pets must be housebroken and vaccinated. **Our overnight boarding rates are for a 24 hour period. If you'd like to pick-up your pup beyond that time frame into extra hours, I charge daycare fee for the extra hours. Please mention the pick-up and drop-off timings in the reservation request and I will gladly work out a Custom Quote for you depending on your needs ***I accept last minute bookings if we have boarded your dog before. We must be able to set up a meet n greet before booking dates. For safety reasons, I appreciate your profile photos being uploaded and profile being complete and thorough before contacting us, as I've had a few fraudulent accounts contact me. :( *****And yes, that is me and Ryan Gosling walking dogs in Brooklyn some years ago. :) Feel free to message me or set up a meet and greet if you have any questions! Make sure to tell us a bit about your pup and his/her needs and what dates you are interested in. Thanks! Rebecca

Rebecca watched our pup for a night and had the best time with her! She was caring and gentle and will definitely rebook with her in the future!

Excellent care and very loving and reliable. It's like our dog has two homes. I highly recommend Rebecca F. She took excellent care of our dog and we would absolutely use her again.

Rebecca was a fantastic host! Our dog is rather anxious, and the 4th of July holiday can be particularly difficult for her. Not only did Rebecca make our dog feel at home. In addition, Rebecca sent regular updates on how our dog was doing. We felt 100% at ease and will be looking to Rebecca first for any future dog sitting needs.

Information Rebecca F. would like to know about your pet

It is always helpful to get to know your dogs personality. What do they do for fun? Whats their favorite game, toy or treat? Do they like strangers? Other dogs? Children? What is their energy level? Do they have any special needs or health concerns I should be aware of? I have NO breed preferences and find that to be rather silly. I do love a good mystery mutt! :)

A typical day

If your pup is staying with me, they will enjoy long walks around McGinley square and Lincoln park. They can lounge on our sofa and look out onto our deck. If you allow us, we also often go for trail walks at nearby hiking locations like South Mountain.
