Availability
At the moment I am mostly doing gig-work around the area, so I have fairly open availability for walks and drop-ins! Mornings are my favorite time to be out and about, but I can be available throughout the day and evening if it fits in with my schedule. I am always willing to be flexible with availability though, so please still feel free to reach out!

About Helen C.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am very attentive and take a lot of pride in my desire to do the best job I possibly can in whatever I do. Additionally, I do not have any personal or school-related distractions, so outside of work, I will stay planted & my attention will be fully devoted to your pet. After a housesit, I will always make sure to leave your space as clean as it was when you left, and unless otherwise requested, I guarantee an in-depth update/overview with photos at least once to two times a day during all bookings :)
Information Helen C. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know of allergies and/or any health concerns that you feel is important for me to be aware of. I do have experience administering oral medication, so if your pet needs to be given some while under my care I am definitely willing to learn your routine. As of now, I would like to specifically work with small to medium sized dogs (as well as cats of course!). I would appreciate knowing how they react to strangers and other dogs when being walked. If your dog has a tendency to react aggressively, we will most likely not be the best fit. If there are any other concerns regarding your pet, such as behaviors you would like me to help encourage/discourage, triggers, or a specific schedule you’d like me to follow, please let me know!
A typical day
Walks will be in the surrounding neighborhood, including a park visit if nearby! If your dog loves to play and has any specific favorite activities or toys, please feel free to mention them. Any other requests that you’d like me to do while I’m with your pet are welcome!

Pet care experience
Hello, my name on here is Helen but I go by Celeste! While I’ve been quite introverted ever since I was young, I have always felt like I could emotionally connect to animals and am my absolute happiest when I’m around them. I grew up with and took care of three variously-sized dogs throughout my life, one of which being both blind and partially deaf, as well as two cats. In addition, I have previously volunteered regularly at a local cat shelter for nearly two years. I would be more than honored to give your pet the same love and care I would give my own while you’re away!
Reviews
Very attentive and reliable! Looking forward to booking a house sit soon - Thanks!!
Working with Helen again was a breeze. She’s great with communication and kept my little guy good company while I was away. My house was well cared-for and all went smoothly.
Helen was a joy to have as a drop in cat sitter for our two rowdy kitties! We received amazing updates every visit, alongside pictures of our girls lounging around and munching away. When we came back, both kitties look super happy and healthy, purring their hearts out! Their litter box was spotless and their bowls and feeder were full! I would recommend Helen to anyone who is looking for someone to watch over their fur babies ❤️ We will be sure to book again!
Kind, communicative, responsible, and best of all my cats approved. Will definitely book again, 10/10
