Love your pets like they are my own

Pet care experience

I have always lived with dogs, cats, and other animals. Since around 12 years old, I started feeding the animals and caring for them. I have rescued dogs off the street as well as volunteered at shelters. I care for other peoples animals as if they were my own. I am respectful of your home and always put your animals needs before my own. I have cared for dogs, cats, turtles, mice, hamsters, gerbils, fish(outdoor and indoor), horses(feeding and putting out to field), and chickens. I will be honest if I feel incapable of caring for your animals, I would rather have everyone feel comfortable then have something go wrong. I hope to help you in the future. I am positive that you and your animals will love having me around!

Helen was wonderful with Bento. She was prompt and very friendly. She also provided updates and pictures. I would definitely use her again.

Helen was great. We felt very comfortable with her in our home as well as caring for our dogs overnight. We highly recommend her & we would definitely use her again.

Safety, trust & environment

As i do not board dogs in my home, i will tell you how i care for pets in their own home. I always make sure to ask about gates, doors, off limit spaces within the home when we do a meet and greet. I triple check i have the keys before locking and leaving the house, always make sure the pets have water and access to the things they need.

Information Helen R. would like to know about your pet

I love all the little details you can give me about your pets. Tell me their morning routine, that quirky way they sleep, what two barks means vs three. Anything and everything i want to know, go ahead be that crazy pet parent you are safe with me. I want your pet to feel as at home with me as they usually do with you.

A typical day

I love to hike and adventure around, safely of course. I know of multiple dog parks, great places to hike and adventure. If your dog is older but enjoys to play in the backyard, i will gladly throw their favorite ball or roll around in the grass with them. I also love lounging on the couch and giving belly rubs. I adjust to your pets needs.
