This was our first time leaving our Frenchies with a sitter. Gretchen and her family gave them so much love and attention. She sent us updates and pictures which put our mind at ease. Will definitely be bringing them back!

Thank you Gretchen, for taking such good care of Luna! We had no worries about Luna’s well being during our vacation. Gretchen’s home is very accommodating for her furry visitors! She was flexible and helpful and her communication was excellent while we were out! It was so sweet to see photos of my girl running and playing with her teenage son! I would definitely book again and highly recommend her!

My 3 pups (all over 13 years old) were taken care of as if they were Gretchen’s own babies. Gretchen is one in a million! My pups just loved her and she loves them. Thank you for taking the stress, anxiety and guilt away from us. They are just too old and precious to take to a boarding facility. I will forever hire Gretchen to take care of my babies.

Gretchen was great! She took excellent care of our dogs and made the whole process easy and stress-free. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter on Rover, and we will definitely be using her again in the future.

Our pups received loving care during their stay-cation with Gretchen. The updates we received put as at ease, this was greatly appreciated as it was the first time my daughter has spent time away from her pup. Gretchen was kind and flexible, accommodating a change, understanding that plans can change! Highly recommend.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large home with no carpet. I live in a gated community with beautiful landscaping where I can walk dogs. My home has an open floor plan so lots of space for fur babies to run, jump, and play.

A typical day

I will stimulate your pet by playing with them indoors and outdoors. Taking walks and giving them one on one floor time and cuddle time. I will ensure your fur babies are happy and stress free. I can take them to a nearby doggie park if they like to run and interact with other dogs.
