Loves hanging out with fur-ends!

Pet care experience

I’m an animal lover with years of experience working in the pet industry which has been equally rewarding and adorable. From this experience, I have learned all about animal behavior, the latest toys, products and accessories, and pet health. I have also had direct experience with pets since the age of 10. Through the years, taking care of dogs of all ages and sizes from potty training puppies to caring for senior dogs. I know I’ve talked a lot about dogs so far but feline friends are always welcome :)

The minute Zoë met Gretchen, I knew she was going to be in good hands. She liked her immediately and they spent a great day together. Gretchen is a real find and Zoe looks forward to hanging out with her again! Thanks Gretchen!

I met Gretchen beforehand and she is sweet. She took great care of Baby Cat! She sent me photos, followed the care sheet I provided, and kept my little one company. I highly recommend her services!

Gretchen watched Ozzie for 5 days of doggie day care for us. She took great care of Ozzie and he loved staying with her! We will use her again.

Information Gretchen S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know ahead of time if your dog needs any special care or accommodation. Helpful things to know are if they are friendly with other cats/dogs, have mobility issues, separation anxiety, or anything else that will help me make them as comfortable as possible while they’re away from their people!

A typical day

Whether your pup loves to chill or loves to go for long walks on the beach, I’ve got them covered! I live steps away from the Hermosa Beach Greenbelt trail that has alll of the smells and nature. It’s also a short walk to the strand for a walk along the coast!
