Woof, Woof, Woof!

Pet care experience

Hey there! I come to Eugene with many years of professional pet-care experience (although, I've been taking care of dogs and cats for as long as I can remember!). For the past 4 years I have been a full-time dog walker New York City and most recently in Boston. There I walked dogs during the weekday (while fending off tourists and Red Sox fans!), provided weekend and evening walks as needed and long and short-term stays at the client's home. Services I offer: -No pack walks! Your pup(s) will always have my undivided attention. However, If your pup has a neighborhood BFF, I will certainty accommodate small group walks. Walks are usually offered in 30 or 60 minute lengths, but I am open to other increments, too! Evening and early morning walks are available. -Puppy packages! I will gladly come by multiple times a day to help break up the day (and avoid any accidents!). We can work out a schedule that best suits you and your new little loaf. -Drop in visits for cats, dogs and other pets available. Can provide feeding, litter changes, some medicine administering, and company! -Long and short-term house sits. Sadly, my apartment doesn't allow dogs, but I can stay with your pet in your home. During house sits, I offer four walks a day, lots of play time, and lots of love. I also don't mind watering plants and general house upkeep as requested. Whether it is for one night or a month (I have done longer!), we can work out a plan that is good for both you and your pet(s). Please let me know if you have any questions about anything! Always happy to try to accommodate different schedules for different pups.

We are so lucky to have found Gretchen to dog-sit for our pup, Wally. Gretchen is super professional and attentive to the needs of our quirky senior dog. We were so happy to receive many reports about him, including pictures, that updated us on his daily activities. Gretchen demonstrates a clear love of animals and that showed in how well Wally was cared for while we were away. We were also so pleased to return to our home being nice and tidy, which shows her respect for our space. Overall, we cannot recommend Gretchen more highly and we will be using her in the future! Thanks for taking such good care of Wally!

Gretchen watched our 4 month old puppy for 10 days and I am so glad we chose her. From the minute we met her you could tell she has a special bond with dogs. Our pup just loved her. She sent multiple updates and photos every single day and kept us in the loop on her schedule. She made us feel so comfortable leaving the pup in her care. We have continued to have Gretchen come visit our pup weekly, she's just that good! I highly highly recommend Gretchen to anyone looking for pet care of any kind.

Gretchen did a fabulous job with my kitty while we were out of town: she was well fed, change of litter, and importantly lots of play time! Thanks Gretchen!

Gretchen is awesome to work with and has been very understanding with our new rescue. Her gentle demeanor and communication are excellent. So glad we found her. Also our dog loves her!
