Pet care experience

Dog Mom of 3 | Puppy & Adult Care

Hi! My name is Helen Stefany. I’m a big animal lover and a proud dog mom of three dogs: two schnauzers (6 and 14 years old) and one fluffy French bulldog (18 months). I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra attention and gentle care. I prepare homemade meals for my dogs and know how important proper nutrition and daily routines are. I am patient, responsible, and loving, and I treat every dog like part of my family. I offer overnight stays in my home, so your dog will have a safe, comfortable, and loving environment while you’re away. Puppies receive extra attention, playtime, potty training, and lots of love, while older dogs get the care and pace they need. My dream is to study veterinary medicine because I truly love animals, and caring for your dog allows me to combine my passion with hands-on experience. I can also provide updates and photos so you can see your dog happy and comfortable while you’re away.

Helen is an amazing, caring, and trustworthy person who truly loves animals. She is incredibly patient, attentive, and responsible, and I would feel completely comfortable leaving my pets in her care. She treats every pet with so much love and kindness, as if they were her own. I highly recommend Helen to anyone looking for someone dependable and genuinely passionate about caring for animals! 🐾❤️

Helen has a genuine love for dogs and understands the importance of the proper pet care, including feeding, exercises, grooming, and ensuring the dog overall well been. Helen provides a safe and loving environment for any dog under her care. For my experience with my dog Lucas I strongly recommend her for any dog care.

Schedule

I care for my three dogs every day, which means I’m used to feeding, walking, and playing with dogs on a daily schedule. I am available for dog sitting, puppy care, and overnight stays throughout the week. My routine is flexible, so I can accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening visits, as well as full-day or overnight stays.

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, dogs are safe, comfortable, and part of my family. I supervise them at all times, provide a secure space for sleeping and playing, and ensure they have fresh water, healthy meals, and lots of attention. For puppies, I offer extra care including playtime, potty training, and gentle guidance. For senior dogs, I provide a calm environment and help with mobility or special needs. I can also follow instructions for care in the client’s home, ensuring consistency with routines, feeding, and any special requests. I treat every pet with patience, love, and respect, so owners can trust their furry friends are in good hands.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day with the dogs I care for includes plenty of attention, exercise, and fun. I start the day with feeding, fresh water, and a morning walk to help them get their energy out. During the day, I make sure they stay active and happy with walks, playtime, and games like fetch or tug-of-war. I also give them lots of attention and make sure they feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. I always follow the dog’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, and any special instructions from the owner. My goal is to make sure every dog feels loved, relaxed, and well cared for until their family returns.

Before caring for a dog, I like to learn as much as possible about their routine and personality. It’s important for me to know their feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions from the owner. I also like to know if the dog has any medical needs, allergies, or medications, as well as their behavior around other dogs, people, or new environments. Understanding their energy level, favorite activities, and anything that might make them nervous helps me provide the best care possible. Knowing these details ahead of time helps me make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and happy while their owner is away.
