Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced garden and live with just my toddler, and with no other pets. Your pet will have my undivided love and attention! I'm happy to have your pet on any of my furniture, or to keep the same rules the you have at home. If they sleep in a crete or outside the bedroom, I have a safe, warm and peaceful space for them to stay, including a cosy sofa or spare guest bed.
Home
Information Helen Alexandra P. would like to know about your pet
I need to know your dog's temperament and preferences - what kind of food and medication they need, their usual routine, what play they like, how much they like to sleep or cuddle, what their favourite toys and treats are and what kind of commands they will respond to. Also whether they should be allowed on furniture. Unfortunately I can't take any pet with risk of aggression due to my baby.
A typical day
When your pet arrives I will spend time getting to know them and playing to ensure they is happy. I will then settle down close to your pet, maybe on the sofa or in bed, with lots of strokes and spontaneous pets if they fancy. We will take a short walk morning and evenings and a longer walk at lunchtime. I'll follow your guidance on treats, feeding and any medication, and give them lots of encouragement on any training. I can offer pick up and drop off depending from a one mile radius of my home, which is near the Level Park. I will be on foot, so cannot collect bulky objects e.g. crates. Do message me if interested.

Affectionate gentle animal lover
Pet care experience
I love animals and am an experienced cat and dog sitter that will treat your pet like part of my family when you are away, hosting them in my cosy and safe house and garden as the only guest. Please note: I have a gentle but curious *2 year old toddler*, so your pet must be ok with young children! I have lived with cats and dogs for the last 20 years, and also looked after a range of other pets including fish, hamsters, rabbits and turtles, taking responsibility for walkies, feeding, washing, administering medications and lots and lots of petting. I am a soft and cuddly person with animals, but will also respect their personal space if they want to be left alone. I work from home 4 days a week while my toddler is at nursery, so would be able to look after your pet in a quiet environment and do morning, lunchtime and evening walks. I can also do drop in visits/walkies either during the day or with my toddler in the carrier. For hosting, your pet needs to be ok with young children. I am very relaxed with pets in my home, happy for them to sit on the sofa or lie in bed with me, but also happy to settle them in a crate or in their bed if that is what they are used to. I will take them out for walks on the lead, to a local enclosed doggy park where they can be off lead, and can also visit your home for walkies and petting breaks.

Reviews
Helen went out of her way to make my spaniel sooty comfortable. She gave him a walk and he also played with her young son in their garden. She sent me photos which were reassuring. I definately will use her again when I need a sitter in Brighton as I felt he was totally safe and happy with her. Thankyou Helen !
Another fantastic day for our Cavalier with Helen, he loves spending time with her. Highly recommend!
I am SO happy that I found Helen (and her lovely son) to look after my cheeky Dachshund, Benjamin. Helen agreed to look after Benjamin at such short notice. We had a nice message exchange beforehand and I felt comfortable dropping Benjamin off. Helen sent loads of pictures and videos while we were away. What I really loved was that Helen sent explanations of Benjamin's behavior and their whereabouts, etc., for example Benjamin can be rather erratic the first day or two of boarding somewhere new, so Helen sent me messages and explanations of what she was doing to help i.e. allowing him to explore the environment, play with their things, and have lots of cuddles throughout the day and evenings before bed. It was obvious that Benjamin started to feel at home super quick. Helen took Benjamin to the local doggy park and gave him lots of cuddles. Benjamin seemed to really love Helen and her son. I'd love it if Helen could look after Benjamin again next time we go away!
A massive thank you to Helen and Rain for taking such great care of Eli. And thank you for the updates it’s so reassuring! I would highly recommend Helen and Eli is looking forward to staying with you again soon x
