Gretchen looked after D Brokaw’s pets & home

My husband and I were able to enjoy a long term, worry-free vacation thanks to Gretchen's amazing pet sitting services. Gretchen is responsible and reliable and of all the pet sitters we’ve had over the last 14 years, she made us the most comfortable. You could tell our dogs received the best care and love while we were gone. In fact, when we came home, they seemed quite underwhelmed about our reappearance back into their lives after several weeks… SMH. We appreciated so many aspects of Gretchen’s care for our boys while we were away. She really went above and beyond including giving extra attention and walks to our energetic puppy who requires a lot of exercise. She made him a toy, got them special treats, and updated us regularly with photos and funny notes. She also was kind enough to help us out when we missed our connecting flight home and check in on the boys until we were able to return a day late. Gretchen also left our house spotless and made soup and bread for our return which was the absolute sweetest thing. It was great knowing our dogs and home were all well taken care of while under Gretchen’s care. We would absolutely love to work with Gretchen in the future – I’m not sure a better pet or house sitter exists. Thanks so much, Gretchen. We really appreciate you!
