Pet care experience
I've taken care of cats since I was a child and dogs since I was a teen. I have experience with cats that have severe allergies, giving oral and injection medications, and introducing them to other animals successfully. With dogs I have experience giving oral medication, lifting elderly dogs as well as dogs with degenerative disorders, and training for many things including excessive leash pulling, food aggression, pressure therapy, and more. Many of the animals I have worked with have been neurotic but they are just as lovely.
Reviews
I came home to a calm and happy dog.
Helen was with our pups for over a week. She kept us updated with pictures and check-ins. Our house was exactly as we left it when we returned. Would recommend!
Helen was amazing and very communicative! I had a family trip to Greece for 10 days and was very anxious to leave my dog who can be very weary of people at first. In fact, I would say he’s aggressive until he gets to know a person, but all went well and he seemed pretty happy from what I saw in the pics and videos Helen sent me. I would definitely book Helen again, and you should too!
Excellent work! Helen responded very promptly whenever we contacted her, and took great care of our pets!
About Helen C.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Animals tend to be more comfortable in their own home so I would let them set their boundaries within reason and develop trust in order to complete whatever service is needed.
Information Helen C. would like to know about your pet
I prefer to know how your animal(s) have reacted to new people in the past as well as if there is any treats I can bring to give to them.
A typical day
I love to play with dogs and cats that I watch as well as give them pre-approved treats. Depending on the mannerisms of the dog determines where I take them on walks, whether it's around the neighborhood, exploring a nearby park, or just their backyard.
