Lifelong devoted animal lover! ❤️🥰

Pet care experience

I'm a lifelong animal lover who's taken care of cats and dogs since I was 7. My fur babies are my children that I love more than anything! I'm very devoted and look forward to meeting you and your pet(s) to care for and love them like my own!

Gretchen was great with my cat. She provided multiple pictures and took great care of my cat!

Zoey had a great time with Gretchen, and Gretchen sent lots of pictures to show me all the fun Zoey was having!

Gretchen is timely, kind and very helpful! Sends multiple messages and photos of my cat Bella. She is also very accommodating with my CH kitty (cerebella hypoplasia) and helps her with her unique litter box situation. She definitely makes me feel calm, knowing my cat is in great hands when I’m on vacation! Highly recommend.

Would recommend Gretchen. Received updates and pictures during our dog Nellie's day stay and was flexible with the timing of dropoff/pickup. She has a sweet dog that got along with our's well and Nellie got to walk and explore.
