Responsible and Caring Dog Lover

Pet care experience

You could call me a dog- aficionado! I love dogs of all breeds, and have owned basset hounds my whole life. I have also cared for my friends fur-babies, giving them plenty of walks or hikes, food and treats, and of course… snuggles!

Gretchen did a fantastic job caring for our senior dog. Gretchen was great at sending communication and pictures while we were away. We are grateful!

Safety, trust & environment

I am happy to follow any rules, requests, and accommodations you have regarding best practices to keep your pet safe. Owners know their dog best! I want to ensure your pet feels as safe and comfortable as possible while you are away, and that tails are wagging when you get back! Rest-assured, I am happy to send plenty of photos of your pet to update you while you are away.

Information Gretchen A. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog needs any special accommodations. It is also important that I am aware of your dogs behavior/reaction to other animals, that way I can keep your pet and other animals/wildlife safe as we explore outside.

A typical day

I am well versed in walking and hiking trails around Marin, and would be happy to bring your dog with me for some daily exercise. If your dog is comfortable with dog parks, I know of many beautiful spots that take both large and small dogs. I am also happy to spend time with your pet at your home if that is the attention they need!

I am currently taking a break from my job as an Early Childhood Educator, and have ample time to care for your pet any day of the week. I enjoy going out for walks and hikes throughout the day and would love to bring your pup with me, but also happy to hang out with your dog and offer lots of love and attention while at home.
