active- used to big dogs

Pet care experience

I am super active! I am graduate of Rice University, and I have grown up with dogs my entire life (big dogs at that!). I am loving, I would never hit/hurt an animal. I love to play, just as much as the doggies do! I am free every weekend, and most weekday evenings. I also love cats, lizards, horses, and any animal you could think of. I am THE animal person. Also, the money I make thru Rover will directly go towards paying for my education, so it would be a huge help! I am friendly, outgoing, and confident. I believe honesty and respect are always necessary, with both humans and animals alike. Let me take care of your wonderful pets! Feel free to reach out anytime.

Gretchen was very friendly, professional, and communicative sending us lots of pictures while we were away! She gave our pups loads of attention and pets! Sebastian and Luna had nothing but high praise for Gretchen upon our return! 4 paws up from each of the pups!

Gretchen did a great job staying w Winston (large and needy Great Dane). He was happy and healthy on return & our apartment was just as we left it. Thanks!!! :)

Safety, trust & environment

I am respectful and observant. My experience working in a dog kennel has allowed me to learn about dogs behaviors and how they communicate. I am confident in my ability to tailor my interactions with each unique dog. I will always respect your space and home!

Information Gretchen C. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or medications. I am comfortable with most. Training is encouraged - I am good at teaching and training, however that will only work if you and your family continue the work.

A typical day

I am very active, so I love taking dogs on walks and runs. I can handle big dogs as well! With indoor animals I’ll be sure to play stimulating brain games, and provide cuddle time. Physical touch is important.
