Information Helen T. would like to know about your pet

It’s important for me to know your pet’s personality, behaviors, and any unique mannerisms ahead of time. Are there specific fears or triggers I should be aware of—like loud noises, other dogs, or being alone? How do they react to new environments or routines? Understanding their needs, quirks, and comfort zones helps me provide the most loving, stress-free care possible. The more I know, the better I can make their stay feel just like home.

A typical day

Each day is filled with fun and enrichment! We’ll enjoy lots of outdoor play in the fenced yard, whether it’s a game of fetch, tug-of-war, or just exploring and sniffing around. Inside, there’s plenty of time for snuggles, treat puzzles, and calm companionship. I tailor activities to each pet’s personality and energy level—whether they’re a bouncy puppy or a chill senior. My goal is to keep tails wagging and hearts happy!

Helen is absolutely amazing. When our dog sees us packing, he gets very clingy, but when I grab his cage, he knows he's going to Helen's and gets super excited. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our fur baby.

Helen is an absolute joy! I don’t board my dogs very often and she makes them so feel welcome and at home. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter. She is very responsive and provides regular updates. It is such a peace of mind for me knowing my dogs are in good hands with such a caring person.
