Pet care experience

I love my canine companions!

I’m an LA native & have walked, pottied, nursed, raised & loved dogs as soon as I was able and for as long as I can remember. The joy they bring to my days is something I strive to give them in return. And I love pet photography, so you'll be regularly updated with pics of your hound or kitty. 🙂

Helen is a delight. My fur baby is in very good hands every time I go out of town. The peace of mind I get, I’m grateful for. My fur baby gets attention and fed and cared for and it shows. Thanks again!

House Sitting • März 29, 2026

Helen is incredible! She took extra care of our blind dog Joe and was an amazing house sitter. Already looking forward to the next time we can schedule her to come hang out with Joe!

Love, love, love the pet/ house sitting that Helen just finished for us. 10 days. Luna loved her from day one and has never been so spoiled. We had some tricky medication needs, and Helen handled it all beautifully. Helen was super attentive and was in contact with me every day, sending pics and videos. Highly Recommend!

Dog Walking • Jan. 06, 2026

Helen was amazing with our dog. I know that he has the absolute best walks as she is very attentive to him. She went above and beyond to make sure our pup was comfortable with her. She was an excellent communicator. I will happily have her care for our puppy any day!

Helen took wonderful care of our older pup Baci on very short notice, going above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and happy during a long day at home when it was too rainy for a proper walk. We look forward to working with her again!

Safety, trust & environment

The comfort & wellbeing of animals will always be my top priority. It is rewarding to provide an animal with exercise and attention, and I take that role seriously. I'm aware that our walk together might be the only one of the day for whichever animal I'm with, so I make sure to give that animal a fulfilling experience. And I truly care to earn their trust; pets (mine and others’) have given me more than words are able to relate. Safety: I am responsive to physical signs that your animal might be uncomfortable, i.e "skipping" when walking (potential injury or issue with paw), excessive panting, etc. Living in a dirty city, I'm always watching for the sneaky grab @ a cigarette butt or discarded chicken bone.

A typical day

I'll go @ whichever pace your pet prefers! If your animal is super high energy, let me know and I'll bring along my running shoes. :)

Please let me know if your animal is dog, food, or stranger-aggressive. I have experience with dogs w/ behavioral issues, but I'd appreciate knowledge of this beforehand, as I'll need to plan how best to approach the situation to ensure that your animal and I have the best interaction possible.
