Testimonials 

"[My mother] calls her little dog Peanut, and she talks with Peanut quite a bit. She's really opened up and she's more conversant and outgoing now. Peanut has rolled back her Alzheimer's by probably at least a year. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone. Outstanding, incredible customer service!"

"Buddy [the GeriJoy companion] kept my father busy and entertained, and gave him both a source of conversation and a sense of social responsibility. The whole family and all the people at the facility loved Buddy!"

"It's priceless!"

James Chaprales
GeriJoy Companion Owner

"GeriJoy provides a heightened sense of emotional involvement to residents who are generally unresponsive and have no interest in any type of formal recreational activity. After spending time with GeriJoy, the residents appear less agitated, more engaged in conversation, and in a happier emotional state. GeriJoy allowed residents to experience the joy of interaction with a pet and a positive experience to share with family and friends. It was impressive and gratifying to see the sense of joy in the residents who had the opportunity to engage with GeriJoy."

"GeriJoy is just simply wonderful! It reminded [my grandmother] of the dog she used to have as a child and it just brought great smiles to her face. We couldn't be any happier to have our grandma smiling."

"GeriJoy offers an exciting new way for seniors living alone or in a care facility to experience the proven therapeutic and health benefits of owning a pet. Its always-available, intelligent and compassionate conversational features combined with its capabilities for connecting family members and caregivers makes GeriJoy an excellent choice for improving quality of life and mental health outcomes."

"Social isolation is a major risk factor for depression and dementia in those over the age of 60. GeriJoy provides a highly effective way to combat this risk. GeriJoy can generate large cost savings for insurers like Medicare by reducing depressive and dementia episodes and decreasing the use of psychiatric medications. Providers and family members who are interested in better outcomes and improved quality of life for those they care for, should consider GeriJoy to be the gold standard for any family member going through substantial life adjustments."
