Safety, trust & environment

Every cat that I have had, I strictly keep indoors for safety purposes. Water and food is always available along with clean cat litter and cozy spaces for my cat to snuggle. My dogs, are inside and crated when I am not home. They have comfy beds, water and food. They are active with swimming, running and tagging along when I am outdoors.

Pet care experience

I have always had a cat or dog in my life that I have always cared for. I have also cared for friends and families pets and I sincerely treat them as my own. Anyone’s pet or my pet is the most important thing to me aside from church, my friends and family.

Gretchen does an amazing job with my cat Salem! Salem gets very anxious when we are out of town but when Gretchen comes and plays with her she isn’t anxious at all! I highly recommend her if you need some love and cuddles for your kitty!!
