Availability

I understand special diets for our fur babies and I feel confident I can accommodate your pets needs. I am available most of the day to snuggle, feed, and walk you four legged baby. On weekends potty breaks can be every 2 hours. During the week days I work out of the home for about 6 hours. On federal holidays I am home and available to your four legged fur babies for all the snuggling and outings they can handle 💗

Information Gretchen S. would like to know about your pet

Any and all information about your fur baby is important to me. Knowing how they act, how you interact with them, is all important so I can help ease them in their transition. If they need extra cuddles or if they’ll need space is helpful so I don’t put any unnecessary stress on them.

A typical day

Keeping pets safe and comfortable are my top priorities. Long walks so they get to know the smells of the new area. Cuddles to help them feel assured. Maintain same feeding times to help ease any anxieties.

Pet care experience

Hello, we offer all the snuggles for your furry family member! If your pet loves hikes and walks we will walk around my neighborhood, head down to the beach or even over to Tiger Mt. If your pet loves snuggling on the couch watching the birds through the windows I have the perfect chair right in front of the window for them! Your fur baby will be well cared for while you are away! I know keeping a routine helps keep stress levels down so I can accommodate their meal plans and times. Pet parents wont be the only ones with awesome vacation selfies, I can update you regularly to share their outings, snuggles and overall temperament during their stay with us.

Gretchen is an amazing sitter, and did an excellent job with Rowen and his endless puppy energy and antics! We'll definitely be booking with her whenever we need a sitter or a drop-in!!

Gretchen is great and has become my go-to sitter. She's flexible about drop-off and pickup times and gives my little guy lots of TLC.

Roscoe was well taken care of. Gretchen and her daughter took well care of him while we were away. And on short notice too. The absolute life saver. Roscoe was definitely pampered. Would definitely be using Gretchen’s care again in the future. Thank you!! -Mendoza Family

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
