If your animal has any special needs or requirements. Their each schedules and habits. If they need to take medication. Commands that they know and follow. As well as any restroom habits.

Depending on the animals activity level, I will engage them in fun physical activities such as playing fetch, tug of war, as well as walks around your neighborhood. For those who are not physically active, I will give them lots of pets and cuddles.

Caring, passionate, reliable sitter

Pet care experience

I have been passionate about animals my entire life. This passion led me to my first job working at a dog groomers. My awesome job was getting to play and care for the dogs all day long. This experience gave me the opportunity to expand my services into pet sitting. I have had the incredible opportunity to take care of young dogs, senior dogs, cats, bearded dragons, snakes, and even birds for the past 6 years. I am adept at giving dogs medications including insulin injections. Also, during my time pet sitting I enjoying taking pictures of my pet friends and then sending the pictures to their owners.

Helen was awesome with our rabbit! She was punctual, communicated well, followed all of our instructions, took great pictures, and helped me feel so at ease while we were out of town. 10/10 would recommend!

I truly cannot say enough about Helen. She literally treated our animals like her own. We have four anxious cats and by day 2-3 all of them were coming out to greet her and warming up to her. We also unexpectedly started having to give one kitty meds the week before our trip and she enthusiastically accepted the added task. We feel so lucky to have found a pet sitter for as long as she’ll have us! I think the kitties will be sad to not see her every day!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
