Dogs and Cats Rule

Pet care experience

I love all dogs and cats, and they love me. I have 40 years of personal pet care experience that includes dog walking, dog sitting, full cat care, and house sitting. I have been walking dogs for my family and friends for 36 years and have been dog sitting for 14 years. I can handle the tiniest pup to the mightiest mutt. Cats own humans, humans do not own cats. I have had cats cavorting in and out of my life for 40 years. I can handle every cat personality from purring kitten to complete hellcat. A walk is a dog’s opportunity to take care of business, explore the world, and get a great workout. I will always provide a “P” report/photo, varied walk environments/scenery, different walk speeds, and a quality candid photo while reinforcing any training cues and protecting your dog against stalkers, chicken bones, and other urban delicacies. Need a dog or cat sitter? I am ready, willing, and able to hang out and take care of your fur baby. I will follow all of your feeding and cleaning schedules and will provide plenty of playtime and companionship. I can also administer any pills/medication as needed and will provide daily “P” reports/photos, updates on mood/behavior, and quality candid photos. I won’t be able to replace you but I can help your fur baby deal until you return.

Geneva is the best! I have booked her to cat sit several times while traveling internationally and her updates, care, and communication are always great. Highly recommend.

Geneva is seriously an angel. I trust her wholeheartedly with my cats. My kitties are typically very shy and don't even come out of hiding for my closest friends – but they love Geneva and always come out to play and hang out when she is caring for them. In addition to being amazing with my cats, Geneva is always prompt and professional, and super flexible. She was able to accommodate several last-minute changes to my most recent booking which totally saved my butt. Seriously, stop looking at other profiles and just hire Geneva!!!

Information Geneva K. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if the dog has gone through any training and what type of training, so that I am able to reinforce any cues or training as needed. I am good with untrained dogs, as well, and can work with their individual needs. No breed preferences.

A typical day

Dogs are individuals and walks are custom to their particular needs. I believe a dog should get to know the current scents around their home turf and then be allowed to explore from there. A walk with me will always include grass and green space. Tiny dogs get picked up and carried as needed. Playtime is customized to the dog’s energy level and needs. I am always willing to play amateur detective and go on stick hunts while avoiding those troublesome squirrels.
