About Gretchen

Experience: 2 yrs

I discovered my true calling for caregiving while caring for my younger sister through her battle with breast cancer. That experience taught me the profound value of patience, empathy, and providing support to individuals and families navigating difficult times. I hold a Bachelor's degree in English and work as a web designer, which makes me uniquely equipped to assist people with modern technology, whether that's setting up devices, troubleshooting wifi, organizing digital photos, or video chatting with family. I'm happy to assist with: * Companionship & Connection: Engaging conversation, walks, and quality time * Daily Support: Meal preparation, light housekeeping, and grocery shopping * Transportation & Errands: Safe driving to medical appointments, social outings, and errands * Tech Help: Patient, step-by-step assistance with phones, tablets, and computers I bring a calm, respectful, and joyful energy to every home. I look forward to supporting you and your loved one.
