Helen took great care of my very shy cats and was very good at communicating both before and during.

Helen is a wonderful sitter with a great personally and a genuine love for dogs. My Tilly was very happy with her and she took her for a long walk which Tilly really needed. Tilly was having her first season and Helen managed her perfectly. I will definitely ask for Helen's services again and I hope she will be happy to look after my very lovable but extremely active puppy.

Helen is our life saver, without Helen we would not be able to go away or leave our beloved dog Luigi. We trust Helen wholeheartedly with our precious pup. She makes sure all his needs are met whilst giving us peace of mind. Luigi absolutely adores her and we can’t thank her enough for what she provides.

I’m a regular client of Helen’s and she stays in my property in London whilst looking after my dog (who absolutely adores her). Helen is trustworthy, kind, responsible and reliable, and she takes excellent care of my home and truly cares for my dog. I receive plenty of updates and feel included in their little adventures by way of some really funny videos and pictures. Most importantly, when I'm on holiday, knowing my dog is safe and well and having a great time allows me to truly relax. I trust her implicitly.

Going away for a night or fortnight , we don't worry anymore knowing Helen is looking after our two dogs , I absolutely recommend Helen caring for your pets , friendly , daily updates ( Helen takes brilliants pics of our dogs - I use them for my insta ) professional and we totally trust Helen , we pretty much work around Helens availability cos she is busy with other bookings , as we wont use anyone else looking after them !! You'll see why when you use Helen Pet services !!

Helen has been an absolute god send when looking after my two dogs. It’s been lovely having someone we wholly trust with our home and our boys. She is curtious, is responsive in messages when booking and keeps us updated on what she is doing with the boys through photos and messages whilst we are away. The dogs absolutely adore her. The house is always spotless when we return and the boys are always walked so it’s not a stress on landing day. I cannot recommend Helen and Happy Hound highly enough!!!

Safety, trust & environment

I am incredibly clean & tidy & have spent the last 5 years staying in clients homes across the UK. I have been entrusted with homes valued over 2 million & have even been trusted with vehicles & placed on clients car & van insurance during certain stays that are more remote.

A typical day

I like to ensure that dogs are given physically & mentally stimulating walks suitable for their breed & age. All activities are discussed & planned with clients before a stay but can include doggy lido swims or sea swims if available.

0 to 7 kg
7 to 18 kg

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or requirements & I will tailor the pet care I provide accordingly. Unfortunately, I am unable to take on dogs who are reactive on walks or with other dogs.
