ITS MY PASSION!

Pet care experience

I have had pets all my life, and now I am retired, so home all day to keep your pet safe and spoiled ❤️ in a fenced in yard, with supervision. I have 2 little Yorkies, that love to romp and play with new fur babies. I will make sure your pet will be safe and spoiled ,with lots of love and hugs while you are gone. I can also do special needs, if your pet need certain medications at a certain time, or needs alittle more attention getting older , I can assist in that. I do have many references , that you can call, to make you feel your pet in is the right place, while you are gone. Retired, home 24/7. so can keep your fur babies, safe and loved while you are gone , I will spoil and love them, just like my own 2 little fur babies. I allow fur babies on my furniture, and recliners, for cuddles, and love. They all have lots and lots of toys to play while here.

Maxie and I had a great experience with Helen Marie. Maxie was so happy and well cared for. It was clear that she was in good hands and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Helen to my friends and family.

Marie was so easy to communicate and work with! She and her husband clearly love dogs and where knowledgeable, compassionate and had a "Safety First" philosophy. When we met them a few days before our trip, we went into there home where there was a dog fence surrounding the entrance to ensure no escapes! Their yard has a large gated area that they walk the pups to, to do their business- also gated. They only board 3 dogs a time. She sent photos and updates on a daily. It was so relaxing for us on our vacation knowing our two Cavapoos where in good hands. I will definitely be booking with Marie again! Thank you Marie!

We were very pleased at our meet and greet with Marie and her husband and felt that Piper would be in good hands. She is quite an active 10 month old Goldendoodle and this was our first time leaving her. Marie texted us every day and sent pictures and that assured us that Piper was doing well without us. Marie's texts let us know that Piper had a rough few nights in the beginning, but told us that was not an unusual adjustment period for a puppy, especially since Marie has 2 older dogs. I would certainly use Marie again and feel confident that Piper was being well taken care of.
