Highlights
Pet care experience
From Iowa, With Treats
I’ve had dogs since I was 2 and grew up with three big pups (and a cat!). Now in Florida without my family dog, I channel all that love into keeping your pups happy—whether it’s puppy zoomies or senior snuggles.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Moving to Florida without my family pup, I miss her like crazy—so I happily “borrow” other people’s dogs for cuddles, walks, and playtime. I always keep things clean and bring my own food, so your home stays just the way you left it.
Ratings and reviews
Gretchen watched our dog and cat over a long weekend and did a fantastic job. Our pets loved her company, she was a great communicator, and she kept our house super tidy! 10/10! I can’t recommend Gretchen enough and we hope she is available next time we need a pet sitter. Thank you Gretchen for taking such good care of our pets!


Gretchen M. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
Gretchen is very attentive to my dog anytime she’s watched her! she always sends me updates on how she’s doing and is very caring. I would always recommend her!
Gretchen was an excellent babysitter for my mini dachshund puppy. I had to go out of the country for a week, and she made sure my girl was properly taken care of, not only with walks and check-ins, but spent more than enough time with her. I gave her access to my apartment, and she is also an extremely trustworthy babysitter! Sent several updates, photos, and asked plenty of questions (a super good thing)!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Gretchen was absolutely wonderful with Ruby. From the very first meet and greet I knew Ruby would be in great hands. While I was away Gretchen sent regular updates and adorable photos that gave me so much peace of mind and showed Ruby was happy, relaxed, and having fun. She truly loves and understands dogs and it showed in every interaction. When I came home, I could tell Ruby was well cared for, and maybe even a little spoiled from all the attention. I am so grateful for the care and kindness Gretchen gave and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to watch their pup.

Schedule
Running a gym gives me a flexible schedule with plenty of breaks between classes, which means I have the perfect windows for walks, playtime, and check-ins. Whether it’s a quick midday stroll or some extra snuggles, I can easily fit caring for your pup into my daily routine.
