Highlights
Pet care experience
Retired Active Animal Lover
I'm a retired massage therapist. My home feels empty without a pet. Would love to fill my house and days helping you out with pet care. I have pet massage training. Your dog or cat will be in good hands with me. Literally. Being home all day I can help reduce you animal's anxiety. I love trail walks and being active. I live with my husband and son who also love animals.

Ratings and reviews
Gretchen and family took care of our dog Opie while we were visiting Williamsburg for 3 nights. We received updates of Opie's stay through pictures and text messages. Gretchen made sure to understand any of our concerns with Opie while she stayed away and was able to reassure us Opie was thriving and alleviate our worries. This allowed us to enjoy our vacation knowing Opie was in good hands. I highly recommend Gretchen.
Gretchen and her family took great care of Buddy! Communication was clear and timely. Everything exceeded expectations!
Gretchen was wonderful! She treated our dog like family and provided daily updates with adorable photos, which gave us immense peace of mind. Highly recommend! I was grateful her son Maxx and husband Larry were there too! My dog is pretty spoiled with lots of love and attention and they knew just how to make him feel comfortable. Gretchen is very professional and followed all of our instructions. She adhered to the rules to prevent Romeo from re-injuring himself and kept his daily routine so there was no adjustment upon return.
Spark stayed with Gretchen for a week. Gretchen sent me updates, often with pictures every day. She checked-in with me whenever she had questions. She took him to his favorite dog park routinely. Spark liked Gretchen and her family very much and felt comfortable in her house right away -- we saw that on our initial visit. We were very happy with the experience and think Gretchen is great. Highly recommend.
This was our puppy’s first visit to Gretchen, and I can’t adequately express how wonderful she was with him. She made him feel comfortable, and she sent us regular images of him as he relaxed on the couch. Thank you so much, Gretchen, for loving our little guy for the weekend!!
Gretchen was awesome! She took care of our puppy and shared photos daily. She asked all the right questions prior to the drop-off and was super friendly. I would definitely recommend her to others and wouldn't hesitate to book with her again.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I will walk your dog several times a day as per your instructions. If your pet is registered with JCC we can visit with other dogs at near by dog park. My home is dog friendly. Pets are allowed on furniture and beds but will abide by your dogs training and family preferences for house rules. We can pick up or you can drop off.
A typical day
I am an early bird. Your pets day starts with cuddles and a potty walk before breakfast. I am an early bird and love morning walks. My home is relaxed and spacious for pets that like to move around and get the zoomies. I love hiking on trails. If your dog needs to run, we are about 1.5 miles from Kidsburg Dog Park. Pet massages included.
