They call me the pet whisperer!

Pet care experience

I've taken care of pets of all kinds since I was a little girl--from dogs, to cats, to rabbits, to lizards, I have done it all! I have even lived the farm life and taken care of pigs, cows, goats, and ducks! Not only have I taken care of and loved my own precious pets, but I have also helped family and friends with their furry babies by feeding, walking, and playing with them. I pride myself on being able to make an instant connection with animals, and I am always that person at the party who is petting someone's pup or kitty cat.

Gretchen was wonderful! Will recommend. Feel like she went above and beyond. Shy cat took a liking to her. she made the time to let the cat get comfortable enough to come out and say hi.

Safety, trust & environment

I believe our fur babies know and understand what we are saying to them, so your lovies will get lots of loving conversations along with active play and pets when I visit. My lap is never empty when I have pups and kitties around because I end up loving on them so much! I have a long furred baby of my own, so I understand how to comb and brush pets to keep their fur looking great. I also understand that our fur babies have occasional accidents, so I always make sure to clean up after my pet clients.

Information Gretchen G. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there are any special needs or behaviors that I need to be aware of in advance. If you have any routines or walking routes that would make your sweet baby more comfortable with me, please share with me! I want to be able to best serve your darling!

A typical day

I know every pup is different, so activities will be tailored to your fur baby's needs. Does your dog need lots of tug of war? I've got you! Snuggles and belly rubs? I'm an expert! Playing fetch or chase? I'm here for it! I am in great physical shape, so I have the energy and ability to keep up with whatever activities your pupper needs!
