I am an Animal person love them all

Pet care experience

I must have been a dog LOL in an other life!! I love animals, had myself a little baby from the shelter, his name is Dior, well, Senor Dior. He passed away last year. Had a tumor, and had to amputate his leg. We had him with us for an other year, unfortunately there was nothing they could do anymore and had to let him go. He passed away in my arms when the VET came to the house, in his favorite place. He ll always be with us, we have his ashes. RIP sweet Dior. Worked for the Animal shelter in Curacao, situation with animals is horrible, even here in the US a so called "civilized country" where "puppy mills" are legal!!! Pfff, get carried away. I just adore dogs, cats, and he/she would be in a very loving home. 2 would be perfect. I would pamper them in a way, they don t want to go home anymore ha, ha, ha.. They will have access to the full house and of course I will take them on walks. Also, we have a nice big yard to play in . About this sitter: I am a true Animal Lover!:) Worked for the Animal Shelter on Curacao, saved many dogs. Unfortunately can t take the whole world on your shoulders, but if everybody does a little it will make a difference. Why I love dog sitting I grew up as a child in a household with cats and dogs. I have always had a dog and cats, and just love animals! Saved many of them, and they warm up to me immediately, they can feel it. Meet my pets I have right now only a 5 year old rescue cat since I have been traveling a lot. We just moved to Hendersonville to stay. When I traveled the world, my animals always came with me! He has been in Holland, Curacao, Aruba, Colombia, Paris, Rome, you name it, he comes with me. About my yard We have a nice big back yard, plenty of space inside, and they can go where ever they want. There are a lot of dogs in the communic but back patio, but live in a park like sitting, and most people have a dog. Very dog friendly area. My experience administering medication Yes, but don t want to be responsible if something would happen.

Helena took great care of out dog while we were gone for a weekend. She acted as if he was apart of her family and sent continuous updates and photos! If we need another sitter, Helena will be our first choice!

Our two spoiled little ones had a great stay. Lots of photos to see how they were doing and the fun they were having. They were spoiled, maybe more than they get at home! Thanks so much for caring for them!

The girls had tons of fun playing with their friends. They were well taken care of and came home just a bit more spoiled than when they left. Helena did a great job.

If I know an animal lover, it's Helena. She has cared for my chihuahua mix in the past while I was away and took such great care of him. I know she volunteered at the animal shelter and treats animals like people. She would be a great person to babysit anyone's pet, because after all, pets are basically furry babies. :)
