About Gretchen

Hi, I'm Gretchen! I'm an experienced and compassionate pet caregiver who genuinely loves animals and understands how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you're away. I've cared for multiple dogs at once -- including having three of my own -- and I'm comfortable managing feeding schedules, walks, medication routines, transportation, and different personalities and energy levels. I've even traveled internationally with pets, so I'm calm under pressure, highly attentive, and experienced handling animals in unfamiliar or stressful situations. I'm reliable, communicative, patient, and naturally attentive to animals' behavior and needs. Whether your pet is energetic, anxious, older, or just needs extra affection and consistency, I aim to create a calm, loving environment where they feel secure and cared for. I understand that pets are family, and I treat them that way.
