Safety, trust & environment

🐕Leaving your pet with somebody is one of the most difficult things, I know this because I scroll ENDLESSLY looking for a trustable pet sitter for my two chihuahuas, 6 guinea pigs and cat- so I know how important it is for them to be left with someone with experience. ➡️It is hard to find someone who is DBS checked, Insured & also knows a lot about different symptoms and signs of illness in animals for when you are away (thats affordable!) and that is the gap in the market I feel I fill. If you want to go on holiday, your pets should feel like they are on holiday too! 📷I also send you regular updates of your pooch or meow-meow with pictures and videos!

Information Helena G. would like to know about your pet

●Does your dog show any aggressive traits? ●Does your dog need to be muzzled in any situations? ●Is your dog/cat nervous? ●Is your dog friendly with other dogs? ●Any medical conditions? (Very important) ●Please let me know your veterinary surgeon address in advance and let them know when you are going away that I have permission to bring them in if something were to happen.

A typical day

My hobbies are long walks and writing- so you can only imagine the fun your dog will have. We will have a long walk in the forest or on the beach, maybe stop for a coffee, then come home and snuggle on the sofa! For cats, I will play lots of different games with them, making sure to keep them stimulated and happy, this includes treat games (I do this for dogs too). I have a variety of these which get cleaned and disinfected after each animal use. But most importantly, give them lots of fuss!

Helena was lovely. She arrived early and ensured Finn had his full hour walk. I was sent photos and a video of his time with Helena which were great to see - Finn had a great time at the beach and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Helena. We will certainly be booking again! Thank you for taking care of him! :)

Helena walked our younger dog and was fantastic helping us to train him. She’s a professional who puts the well being of your pets first and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anybody.

Helena was a fantastic walker for our dog. She was punctual and extremely knowledgeable about his breed and we have struggled to replace her. Would certainly recommend Helena. The video and photo updates made our day! Thanks Helena.
