Full-Time at Home & Care Giver

Pet care experience

Hello fellow dog lovers! I'm a Bay Area native. I'm currently in my final year at Santa Clara Law and nearly everyday I am at home studying with my sweet Golden-doodle, Mia. I would love to decompress with your puppy by jogging, powerwalking and playing fetch! I share all my walks/runs with the Nike RunClub app, which tracks our miles and pace. I am available all hours of the day and am home full-time, so scheduling with me will be convenient. Rest assured your pride and joy will receive 110% of my attention and affection. I would love to host your dog day/nite while you’re at work or on vacation in my 3500sqft home with a large backyard for tons of sunbathing and squirrel chasing. I will provide tons of pictures and videos so you’ll ALWAYS be in the loop. Reach out and schedule a meet-and-greet. I look forward to meeting you and pupper!!

My dog loves Helen! Maybe more than me. A little jealous. ;) he always comes back from walks really happy and really tired.

Helen is the BEST, she’s so great with our doodle Leo! We have used Helen as our sitter for almost 3 years, and Leo always has the best time with Helen and her pup Mia! So grateful to have found Helen! She treats Leo as her own, feel so lucky.

Information Helen T. would like to know about your pet

What does your dog enjoy doing more; playing fetch, tug-of-war, staring out the window for squirrels or just lots of scratches? Does your dog enjoy playing with other dogs? Is your dog socialized? What is your pup’s energy level? Is your pup trained? What commands does your dog know? I offer pick-up or drop-off to lessen the stress of your busy schedule. Please have your dog groomed before a overnight stay. Or I can bathe your pup for you. Also, please make sure your dog is up to date with vaccines, flea and tick treatment before drop off. Cost adjustments may be applied. Before the official stay, for non-returning doggies, I request a meet and greet minimum of 2 hours to observe or preferably one overnight stay at a discounted rate. In my experience, I can provide the best care when I am fully aware of your pup’s behavior while in my home environment and what I can do to prepare beforehand so that both my family, my dog and I can provide the mini doggie vacation that your dog deserves! My goal is to provide a safe, loving and fun experience, and in my opinion is the best way for me to provide quality care. *ALL care services must be booked through Rover. Please do not ask for my personal number unless it’s to receive longer videos of your pup playing. Thank you!

A typical day

I am available to walk in your neighborhood and/or take your dog to a nearby dog park or park. If your dog enjoys fetch I will definitely make that happen!
