Vet Assistant to assist you!

Pet care experience

I am a retired veterinary assistant with 5 years of experience, so I have a pretty good idea at what goes into taking care of your furry little ones! I’ve always had pets my whole life, anything from cats, dogs, hamsters, and even fish for a time! I have been pet sitting for at least 5-10 years, give or take. I am also comfortable to give medications, should your little ones need them!

Helen was great watching our 2 dogs overnight while we were out of town. Youcan tell she lives animals.We received regular updates and photos and everything was neat and in order when we returned home. Dogs were happy and we were able to relax while away knowing they were well cared for.

Helen is amazing. She took great care of our crew while we were away. Our dog can be pretty shy with new people and she immediately liked Helen :) Helen was incredibly dependable and understood what our dog needed in terms of her visits and walks. She even took the time to fill a food puzzle we left for our pup, which was greatly appreciated! I can't recommend her enough!!

Helen has taken care of our three cats very well for the past threeish years. She’s the most caring person that I know. I am always amazed by how well she works with animals.

As an owner of 3 cats, I make sure they have plenty of food, water, and clean litter boxes daily! I have also had a dog in the past, so I know that more frequent potty breaks are a must for our canine friends! I also have administered medications as a vet assistant. Anything from liquids, pills, to giving fluids under the skin and injections!
