About Helen T.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am home most of the day and will give plenty of company to your animals. I am a quiet person who animals seem to like being around. I prefer to care for dogs who are well trained on a leash as I always keep them on a leash when off the property. Happy to go on longer walks (and short jogs) for dogs that need more exercise and play off leash in an enclosed garden.
Information Helen T. would like to know about your pet
Any medicinal needs. Behavior of dog with other people/animals. Things which the dog is distracted by (other dogs balls, birds etc). How the dog communicates needs (barking, whining, sitting by the door etc.) Dietary needs/schedule
A typical day
I like to explore new walks and play in a safe area in or outside the home. Dogs are kept on a lead at all times when outside of the property but long lines welcome for walking in appropriate areas. Happy to play in garden for extra exercise. Please notify me of any flea issues in advance and if bathing is needed. I do not have dogs sleep in bed with me but they are able to be in the same room as me during the night.

Pet care experience
Hello! My name’s Helen and I run my own online business from home. I’ve house and pet sat for many friends and family over the years. I have completed two pet-sits in the last year on another platform. I’ve had two cats of my own in the past. I currently don’t have any of my own pets but love looking after other peoples! Your pets happiness and health is my priority when looking after them, and I am happy to provide updates/pictures and videos as required by the owner. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions, I am usually very responsive during the day and I look forward to hopefully looking after your pet family.

Reviews
Helen was brilliant. Great communication, really attentive, and left our house spotless too. It seems our puppy instantly took to Helen… when we came home, our puppy ran round the house trying to find her! Thank you Helen ☺️
Helen is a gem! What a wonderful caring and responsible sitter. Our dog Darcy, adored her and was so well taken care of, as she’s an old lady with some specific and timely needs. Helen will be my first choice when I need to travel from now on. Darcy says she was pawfect. Thank you.
We have only left the dogs with family members before so we was nervous leaving them with someone we/they didn’t know as one of them can be nervous with new people but the dogs took to helen so well and she went out of her way to come and stay at our house with the dogs and she sent us regular updates on them to let us know how they was getting on and sent lots of pictures and we are so happy with how it went she really looked after the dogs as if they was her own and we can’t thank her enough! i would highly recommend her and will definitely use helen again in the future if we need someone to look after the dogs
Had to book a dogsitter last minute because previous arrangements fell through. I was really worried about leaving my little boy because he has a lot of special needs, behaviours and peculiarities and I had never left him with a sitter before (only relatives he knows well), however Helen was fantastic. Good communication throughout, kind, professional and I felt very comfortable leaving him in her capable hands. She also sent photo updates which made me very happy. Came back to a happy dog and the house exactly how I left it. Would definitely book again! Thank you, Helen!
