Availability
work from home as a social media manager, so my schedule is fairly flexible. I rarely am ever out of town (away from my kids)- so more than likely I can look after your kids! 🐾🐶🐱

About Gretchen Y.
Communication

Cat skills
Safety, trust & environment
I like to treat animals as if they were my own. How would I want a sitter to be with my baby? Kind, patient, fun, and always safe. I don't mind texting check-in photos or a short summary of my visit. I am easy to communicate with and will be happy to keep a routine and do my best to follow instructions for your kids.
Information Gretchen Y. would like to know about your pet
It is important for me to know about any behavior issues or triggers in their environment for unfavorable interactions. I want to keep your baby safe. I also want to be safe. Is there an animal in your neighborhood you don't trust? Should I avoid walking in a certain area? Does your dog have any naughty/sneaky behavior (such as eating things they shouldn't) that I should in mind? Let me know! No judgements here, my weenies are notoriously up to no good. I just want to know what to expect. 😄
A typical day
I like to take my time on walks so dogs can get their sniffs and enjoy the experience. Time spent laying in the sun 🌞 and getting fresh air are important. Inside, playtime with toys and most definitely snuggles & pets. ❤️

Pet care experience
I have 3 dachshunds at home. Two are seniors and one is a puppy. I also cared for my senior cat up until she was 17. 🤍 My animals are my babies. At home, I am described as a helicopter parent...(always hovering) making sure they are happy & safe. I have pet experience with medical conditions such as IVDD, diabetes, cushings, asthma, etc. I am familiar with all of the poisonous plants, foods, toxins in your home and dangerous wildlife in our area. I take the safety of your baby seriously, just as if they were my own. I am new to creating a Rover profile, but not new to pet sitting. I've been watching friends, family & neighbor's fur kids since I was in high school.

Reviews


Excellent pet sitter. On time and provided constant feedback about the dogs. Highly recommend.

Gretchen did a fantastic job! :) Lulu appreciated her play toys and feedings and we appreciated her attention to detail! We highly recommend this sitter!

This is the first time we have used a pet service for our girl so we were very nervous! But Gretchen was amazing and by the look on her face in pictures, Lexi really likes her! And….she ate and went #2, which she never does with even family watching her!! We will definitely request Gretchen again for our girl!!


Gretchen always takes such good care of my kitties. They love her ❤️
