Susan Foerster -
While working at various veterinary hospitals in Brevard County, both as a Veterinarian Assistant and Office Manager, Susan noticed a strong need for professional pet sitters among the clinic clients. After researching the appropriate liability insurance and professional memberships, in 2001 she started G & S Pet Services.
The business has been an extraordinary success, primarily due to the personal references by local veterinary clinics throughout the Central Brevard area and the excellent staff and their ongoing dependability and love of the pets in their care.
Geri Shea -
Geri left her position as an Elementary school teacher in New England and came to Cocoa Beach in 2002 to be primary care-giver for her elderly parents. Looking for a change of venue, she saw an opportunity to care for other people’s furry kids and began pet-sitting. She has been working as a pet-sitter in the Cocoa Beach/Merritt Island area for the past eight years. She provides overnight pet-sitting for those pets that prefer a constant companion.
