Highlights
Pet care experience
Ready to Love Your Pup Like Family.
Hi! I’m Gretchen, and first and foremost I can’t wait to meet your pet. I totally get the guilt of leaving your pet and wanting someone there to give them the same attention you do. My background is all over the board, all high pressure positions, usually leading large teams. However, my last position was remote, mundane, and a bore. I decided to take a whack at some of the hustle apps over the holidays, and I fell in love with petsitting. Once I started to build genuine relationships with other people’s pets, feel helpful, and have fun, I decided to do this full time. If you are looking for a home for your pup to be spoiled by a solo mom and her two kids… you found us. We love a full house with cuddly puppies. ❤️

Ratings and reviews
Our lab Kodi loved his time with Gretchen. He was happy and well-cared for. We received great pictures and letters from the dog to our daughter, which was an extra touch we all loved! We will definitely be booking with her again.
Super easy and quick drop-off and pick-up! Miley loves Gretchen’s house!
We loved Gretchen! So responsive & treated my pup like her own. 10/10!
I just love knowing I have a dependable dogsitter I can reach out when I find myself with unexpected plans. I think Java loves it when I leave so she gets some special Gretchen quality time!
Gretchen is so sweet and gets a full 5 stars from Java & her "grandma"!
We just love Gretchen so!

Schedule
I am a full time newly solo mom, just trying to bring some excitement into our days, while working around my schedule. I spend most of my days with a house filled with my kids and their friends, and my dogs and their friends. 🤣. We enjoy morning and night walks, and a good pack walk! I have a few families I constantly check in on their pups, but other than that we are home full time.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have two playful pups Simba, 12 and Fred, 3. We have a fenced in back yard and go on a morning walk and an evening walk, usually about a 20 minute mile. We also have two happy pre-teens who look forward to keeping your pup entertained, but I will be the primary care giver and walker.
Pets
A typical day
From going on daily walks to playing fetch, your pup will be endlessly entertained. I also have two pups who love to play between naps, so you know your pup will be entertained the whole time. I have had a blast learning different ways to spoil your pup, like frozen dinners or cucumbers in water! If you are boarding or doggy daycare, we have drop off and pick up down to a tee! Super easy. If I am dropping in, we usually do a walk, feeding, cuddles, and photoshoot.
