Happy to dogsit your paw-fect pup!

Pet care experience

I have grown up primarily with taking care of cats but have always loved getting to know the dogs in the neighborhood. I walked a dog named Tinkerbell regularly in high school for 2 years and fed her daily. This past few years, I have pet-sat for many families both on the east coast and here in California. I love both cats and dogs and am happy to sit for both.

Helen was amazing with our 3 cats and tiny dog for the past week. She is dependable, attentive, and responsive. She took photos of our pets daily, including an extra set of photos, after my 13 year old asked for more on the first day. She is sooo good with animals, very intuitive and gentle. ALL of my pets love her and I can tell by how calm and happy they were when we returned. Our tiny dog was feeling so happy, he squealed with joy, something I've never heard before. Helen was very trustworthy, following through and meeting the different needs of each pet. Leaving our dog is pretty hard on our family, but with Helen at our home, we felt confident they were in good hands. Thank you Helen!

Helen was friendly, prompt, and communicated well. It’s obvious she loves dogs! She was able to quickly manage a situation that happened while we were gone and all of our dogs were calm and settled when we got home.

Availability

I currently work most weekdays at an office job, so depending on where you live, I'm likely free around 5pm or a little after. If you need a pet-sitter, please know that unfortunately I can't let your pet outside during my lunchtime, so they'd have to be able to be left alone from about 8-5 most days.
