Pet care experience
Hi! My name is Helen and I am a graduate from Hope College with a BA in Secondary Education Math and Dance. I grew up with two golden retrievers and am currently the owner of a rescue Bagle Hound (part beagle, part basset hound) named Gerdie. I have always had a love for dogs both big and small. One of my favorite activities is long walks to experience not just exercise, but also all the good smells that the world has to offer and that dogs love to enjoy. Rain or shine I'll always do my best to get out all the "zoomies" your pup may have. Since joining Rover I've been able to expand my love of four legged friends and enjoy giving love to all the cat families as well, very much on the cats' own terms of course. I'm comfortable traveling to and from the city, as well as surrounding suburbs, for any pet sitting needs!
Reviews
Helen is reliable. trustworthy, thoughtful, and a great communicator. She takes such good care of my dog and cat while I’m away. Highly recommend.
Helen was fabulous! My pups were immediately comfortable with her. She provided updates as requested along with several pics for the 3 days we were gone. Her communication was terrific. She made sure she asked my preferences along with making sure she understood my pups routines. Do not hesitate to book with Helen! She is top notch and will definitely be my go to for any pet house sitting needs!
Helen did a great job caring for our cats while we went on vacation. She provided updates every day and clearly communicated. Would definitely recommend her to anyone!
Helen has mad photography skills- we got the best pictures of our fluffy cat, Zoe, while we were out of town. She also sent a bonus video of our baby purring and enjoying some chin scratches. We were so comforted to see Zoe enjoying herself while we were away. We didn't have to worry about a thing, thank you so much Helen!!

A typical day
I've taken care of the smallest and calmest dogs as well as large and hyper dogs so I'm pretty flexible with all breeds. I'd prefer to dog sit in your home to allow for your dog to feel as comfortable as possible in the environment that they know best. Unless they have health issues I'd be happy to walk your dog twice a day. I ask that owners be as honest as possible about all needs that your dog has. Do they have medicine they need to take? Do they have any set routines that you would like me to stick with? Let me know what makes your dog unique so that I can give them the specialized care that they deserve.
