Hi! Im Grace Rolecek

Pet care experience

I love animals and am passionate about giving them good, healthy lives. I have experience and am trained to work with animals, temper aggressive breeds, and administer medication if needed. I am active and have no problem with long or frequent walks. I work from home, so no animal will ever be left unattended in my care. I don't mind pets on the furniture and I have a wide open living room space for play time. Everything is per your instruction, just let me know any accommodations I can make and Ill have them arranged for your pup!

Lizzie was well cared for by Grace. She seemed happy and content. Grace was great about sending pictures. I will definitely use her again and recommend her highly.

Grace seemed to have genuine affection for Bonnie and took very good care of her for the week we were out of town. She was responsive on the app, gave regular updates about how Bonnie was doing, and followed all of our care instructions perfectly. Most importantly, Bonnie was happy when she came home!
