We felt very comfortable leaving Willie with Gretchen. This was clearly a family of dog lovers. The fenced in back yard was a great plus. We could tell Willie felt comfortable there as he wasn’t anxious or stressed as he sometimes gets when we leave him in unknown surroundings. I would definitely use her again.

Gretchen is wonderful. It was very comforting to us to know that Allie was in good hands especially when we were delayed getting home by a whole day.

Bogey and Birdie made themselves right at home at Gretchen’s. We can tell they got lots of TLC from her entire family. Communication was great and we received fun pictures and updates.

Gretchen was great! She communicated with me daily and sent pics of my baby. It was my first time using Rover and I have a small dog (10 lbs) who is used to being at home with me. It was nice to know my fur baby was with other small dogs and the daily updates from Gretchen were comforting. I would recommend Gretchen, especially if you have a small dog. I will use her again.
