Information Gretchen & Tim H. would like to know about your pet

We’d like to understand any special considerations about your pup that would impact how we keep your dog and our home safe when we leave your dog alone (which we’ll do when we run errands or dine out, etc.).

A typical day

Long walks around the neighborhood, ball tossing, and rounds of hide and seek. I’m also happy to take your pup to a dog park if you have a regular haunt.

Your Dog’s Second Home!

Pet care experience

My husband and I love dogs and adore sharing our days and our home with furry pals. I work from home and Tim is retired, so you can be sure your dog will have lots of company and attention throughout the day. We lost our fourteen-year-old Portuguese Water Dog in 2020 and while we’re not ready to bring home a new family member, we would be honored and delighted to shower your fur baby with lots of love and cuddles! Prior to our Portie, we had a Labrador Retriever who was a constant companion until she was thirteen. We are a dog family through and through and will treat your dog like a member of our household.

Gretchen and Tim took care of our pups like their own. We have already rebooked! Awesome service.

Best dog sitters ever!! Beau had the best time ever. I would recommend Gretchen and Tim to anyone! They are the nicest and most understanding people ever. Beau can be pretty anxious and can take a bit for him to warm up, but they were nothing but understanding and patient with him. I had no worries at all. Will definitely be using them again my next trip up to Eagle River!! 10000/10

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.
