About Geraldo


Hey there! 🐾 As your go-to dog sitter, I'm all about the tail-waggin' good times! I've got a lovable Chocolate Labrador named Misty, the ultimate playmate, and together, we're ready to welcome furry pals into our home. I'm a certified dog enthusiast, loving every moment of exercising and playing with these awesome companions. With prior experience hosting dogs, I can guarantee a safe and enjoyable stay for your fur baby. Our Misty is not just a pet; she's a social butterfly, super friendly and always excited to make new friends. Your dog will be in for a treat with plenty of playtime, cozy cuddles, and a home away from home. 🐾 My partner is just as passionate about pups as I am, ensuring that every furry guest receives top-notch care and attention. Together, we create a dynamic duo dedicated to making your pet's stay a home-away-from-home paradise. Let's make it a pawsome experience for your pup! 🐶❤️✨ 

What's Included?

  • Dog walking: Safe and enjoyable walks between 2-4 km, tailored to your dog's fitness level and needs. Some running is possible upon request.
  • Pet sitting: Dog boarding for up to 2 dogs, ensuring your furry friends receive constant attention and care. If 24/7 supervision is required extra fees apply. 
  • Training: Basic obedience training and positive reinforcement techniques can be integrated into walks or playtime.
  • Medication administration: I can responsibly administer prescribed medications as instructed by your veterinarian.
  • Services: Dog Boarding is up to 24 hours. 24+ hours a daycare rate will apply. Day Care is up to 10 hours. 10 + hours extra fee will apply.
  • Urgent boarding: Sometimes we can board dogs the next few hours or the next day. For this, an extra fee of 50% of the normal rate applies
  • Accommodating Your Needs:

    • Boarding: A comfortable home away from home for up to 2 dogs at a time + 1 daycare. Each dog must be under 30 kilos.
    • Walking: Between 1-2 walks per day, depending on your dog's preferences and energy levels.
    • Availability: I'm flexible and work from home several days per week, providing ample time for pet care. During non-workdays, we can structure the schedule around your pet's needs.
    • Supervision: Yes, while there is constant supervision, I'm happy to supervise guest pets 24/7 if required, offering complete peace of mind. An extra fee applies.
    • My Home: A Dog's Paradise

      • Backyard: Large and fully fenced for safe playtime and exercise. Secure gates prevent any escape attempts.
      • Sleeping arrangements: Your dog can choose between a cozy dog house outdoors or sleeping on a provided bed.
      • Family & Other Pets: I live with my partner and the most friendly Labrador on earth, and we can provide individual attention to your furry friend without distractions.
      • My Promise:

        Your dog's happiness and well-being are my top priority. I will provide a loving, safe, and stimulating environment, ensuring your four-legged friend enjoys a fantastic stay while you're away.

        Please feel free to contact me for any further details or personalised service enquiries. I'm happy to discuss your dog's individual needs and tailor my services accordingly.

        I hope this answers most of your questions and gives you a clear picture of my pet care offerings! :)

        PS. For dog boarding staying for 3+ nights, you will be required to fill out a form with relevant information to safely board your pet and ensure they will have a smooth and enjoyable time with us.

        Both my pups were really well looked after. They were safe and happy. I got sent photos as well, which was great as it put my mind at ease. Great service. Thank you. 😊

        Geraldo and his wife looked after Jenga for one night as a test before a longer stay. She was very happy and well looked after and I was very happy to hear it all went well. Thank you!
