About: I have taken care of dogs since 2015. I am comfortable and love to board, walk, and drop in. I can do small - medium dogs. I am working fully remote and would love to walk, board, or spend time in the day with your dog(s). I love all dogs and treat them as if they were my own. I have a dog friendly apartment building. I provide a loving and caring stay for them. Will take them out for potty breaks, walks, and let them stay in my apartment as if it were their own.

“Georgilin was fantastic. I love that she offered to meet my dog with me before walking her for the first time, it helped put me at ease. She was super responsive to any of my messages, on time for all the walks, and great about updates! She also offered to help me out when my dog was sick and I was at work which was so nice of her. I definitely recommend her!”

About: HELLO 🌸 I have taken care of neighborhood pets for 7 years and never had a problem, always had fun and treated them like they were part of my family. My friends and family are full of veterinarians and pet groomers so I’ve always taken a liking to all sorts of animals. I work Remote as a Human Resource Rep and I’m a professional photographer; so id love to take pictures of your pets during my visit! I go by owners schedule and routine if they prefer but I’m an open book. I give frequent walks and potty breaks. I’m open to schedule adjustments and routine that don’t want breaking. In clients home, I’ll follow whatever instructions they give me. spend more quality time with the pets is always something to look forward to. Meals are usual 2-3x a day according to what breed and or the owners preference.
