Couple available for animal care!

Pet care experience

Hi! We are Gretchen and Kent an animal loving professional couple based in Arlington. We both grew up with dogs (border collie and German shepherd) and currently have a very outgoing car,Biju. She is the rare kitty who gets along with both dogs and cats and would love to spend time with both. Gretchen’s dog growing up had some behavioral issues so she is used to navigating dogs who are a little shy or hesitant around other animals. Kent has a flexible schedule and can be available as needed. We both work from home. We included a couple of photos of dogs we’ve cared for in the past :). Gretchen currently works from home 9-5 and is available for lunchtime walks, house sitting, and evening and early morning walks. Kent also works from home but has more flexibility and can be available as needed during the day. We live in a very dog friendly apartment complex and are very open to dog/cat sitting during the day and home visits. There are several parks and trails nearby and a dog park nearby. We think it would be best to just do overnights for cats, but depending on the dog we can be flexible! It’s a great apartment if you looking for puppy/dog socialization.

I have known Gretchen since 2016 and Kent since 2018. I have found them to be caring, responsible pet owners and pet sitters. Gretchen watched my cat while I was out of the country for three weeks and took great care of her, and even sent updates so I knew she was doing well. They are both long-time dog owners and all-around animal lovers. I would trust them to take care of any pet.

Gretchen has been my friend for over ten years, was a roommate for two years, and worked for me for one year. She is one of the most reliable people you will ever meet. Gretchen is kind, responsible, and pays attention to details. She loves animals and has had cats and dogs throughout her life. I would trust her with my own dogs, my money, my house, and my life. If you have the opportunity to hire her, do it—you’ll be getting the best end of the deal!
