Highly Experienced Pet Lover

Pet care experience

Growing up with a dad who loved dogs and a mom who loves dogs and cats, we always had (and still have!) furry companions. My love for dogs and cats began as soon as I was born, my family had a corgi at the time. Her and I grew up together as we were one year apart. She was my first love and first heartbreak. After she passed, we decided no more dogs, it was too painful to say goodbye.. and then we got two more dogs 🤭 the love is worth it! My love for animals runs deep, and as I grew up that love expanded from my own dogs and cats to others. I began volunteering at the local animal shelter with my mom. We walked, played, gave treats, and taught tricks to puppies and dogs as well as snuggled, gave treats, and played with the kittens and cats. Once I was able to drive, I began house sitting and dog sitting for friends and family. And when I moved overseas, the toughest goodbye was to our chihuahua, Rex, and cat, Todd. Now I’m back and since I haven’t quite settled down yet, I don’t have any pets of my own and would absolutely love to take care of some fur babies. I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes, from my family’s chihuahua (whom I potty trained as a puppy and took care of until he was a senior) to my sister’s Alaskan Malamute (needing lots of walks, belly rubs, and play time!) and everything in between. I’d love to give you peace of mind while I take care of your furry family members by updating you with photos. Let’s set up a meet and greet to make sure we’re the right fit! If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out. Looking forward to meet you and your furry family members!

Helena is the best! My dogs and cats LOVE her, and she is so communicative and responsive. Also, she leaves my home cleaner than how I left it, which is amazing to come home too. She's definitely my go-to sitter!

Helena was AMAZING with my two big dogs and 3 cats! They loved her as soon as she walked in the door. She was very communicative and professional. They were well fed, exercised, and got all their meds as needed. I will definitely use her again in the future! My babies had a blast. 🥰

House Sitting (in your home): I'll treat your home as if it were my own. I'll bring my own food and toiletries, and I'll never bring uninvited guests. I'll follow all instructions of food, water, any medication, walk time, play time, etc. and treat your fur babies as if they were my own ♥

Information Helena L. would like to know about your pet

I'd love to know if your furry family members have any special needs or medication. Also how they behave with other animals and people to ensure we have the best time possible together :)

A typical day

I love to go for walks (with or without dogs) and play. We'll go around the neighborhood, dog parks, and/or regular parks giving your fur baby plenty of time to explore and sniff all the things! Once we're back home, playing, belly-rubs, and cuddles are on the menu - unless your doggo prefers to be alone, then I'll happily hang out in the home working online.
