Love, treat and care for your pet!

Pet care experience

Welcome! I really love meeting new pets, getting to know their personalities and making sure your pet is 100% happy and comfortable. We can arrange a meeting with you and your pet(s) to make sure we get to know schedules, dispositions, allergies and other things I should be aware of for the full, loving care of the pet. I have been dog sitting with many friend’s dogs for at least 25 years. I can provide care, attention, and of course plenty of happy walks. I am even able to stay over at night so they don’t get lonely, if need be! Make your reservation soon! My schedule is flexible but if you want to lock a schedule down - especially during the holidays please do!

Geri was great. I felt at ease leaving our dogs Milo and Charlie with her. Our house was immaculate when we returned. She sent pictures and a video. Would recommend her and already booked her for our next vacation.

A typical day

The most fun for dogs is the walk! They get to cruise my neighborhood and check out new smells and other dogs on leashes. Maybe jump in the car for a short ride to a local park for a walk. Back at home they can have a treat and a new chew toy to play with! And also have quiet time if they prefer to nap while in my care.
