Safety, trust & environment

If you would like me to visit your pet before caring for them please message me and we can arrange a visit beforehand. When booking I will be in contact to check your dog's temperament and what they like/dislike!

Information Helen W. would like to know about your pet

Let me know beforehand if your pet has any particular needs e.g. whether you'd like them fed, areas you'd be happy for your dog to be walked, whether your dog has very good recall. For one off bookings where I haven't met the dog I will keep the dog on lead. For those with regular bookings I will get to know the dog before letting them off lead and happy to keep on lead if any concerns at all over recall (and can make sure the walk encompasses lots of new smells to give them lots of mental stimulation).

A typical day

I am happy to be guided by you with what your pet needs from a visit or walk... if they love to play with a specific toy (one of my dogs is ball obsessed!) then let me know. Very happy to give your pet cuddles (if they want!). Just let me know their likes/dislikes.

Pet care experience

I have had dogs and cats in my life ever since I was a young child. Monty was the most loving dog as a child, but my cat Jessy was a bit more independent (but loved a cuddle when it was on his terms!). I own two cockapoo's called Guinness and Murphy, very typical cockapoo's! Full of energy and extremely loving. I have a young child who Guinness adores! Very experienced with high energy dogs. I've had both my current dogs since they were puppies so very happy to do drop in visits to puppies :)

We were very lucky that Helen was available at short notice to stay with our mini dachsie for our overnight away. She communicated throughout and gave regular updates. Could not be happier with her service. Thank you so much, Helen!

Helen loves dogs and will treat anyone's pet as if they were her own. She has trained her own two cockapoos to a very high standard and they are lovely, friendly dogs. We have left our dachshund in her care on multiple occasions and he always enjoys his time with her - especially all the extra cuddles!

Helen has looked after both my Cat Tilly and my Dog Pippin. She is brilliant with them both. Really kind, gentle and trustworthy. 100% recommend booking with her!

Helen is a responsible and caring pet lover who is amazing with dogs. The love she has for her own furry friends extends to every dog she meets, helping them feel relaxed and comfortable around her calm energy. She’s attentive, patient, and always goes the extra mile to make sure pets feel happy and well cared for. I’ve seen firsthand how dedicated she is and fully trust her with my own furbaby. I thoroughly recommend Helen for pet care services.
