Highlights
Pet care experience
Your pet WILL be spoiled :)
Whether it was running with my grandmother's Husky, or cleaning her English Bulldog's ears, wrinkles, and eyes, I've been caring for dogs of all sizes since I was a young kid. Before moving to MA, I cared for my late family dog for 10 years, a beautiful yellow Labrador Retriever (in need of special care as a senior pup), and occasionally cat-sat for some friends. Since September of 2021, I’ve been regularly walking dogs and pet-sitting with Wag and Rover. I started in the Medford/Somerville area, and now service Allston/Brighton.

Safety, trust & environment
I can crate your dog if needed, or brush your long-haired cat's coat frequently, and will follow any specific instructions given to me. I can guarantee that all my attention will be on your furry friends, ensuring they are safe, hydrated, fed, and happy. I also love being active, so I can spend lots of time playing with them.
Ratings and reviews
Helena is amazing!! My cat is currently decompressing in a new environment and she was so adaptive and helpful even when he was hiding away. So grateful for her!
This is our second time booking Helena and she is a fantastic sitter! Vim really likes spending time with her and she sends us great updates
Helena did a great job watching my cat, Vimla! She did everything that Vimla needed, got Vimla to play with her, and was frequently in touch with updates and photos. Helena is my top choice for watching Vim.
Helena really is the best! She notices when my cat’s a bit more anxious than usual and really takes the time to hang out and bond with him. There’s a reason she’s his favorite!!
Helena always goes above and beyond!!! There’s no one I trust more with my cat while I’m away, plus she sends the best updates :)
Helena was amazing as always!! So grateful that she was available so last minute to take care of Gideon, he loves getting to hang out with her.

Schedule
When I’m not pet-sitting, I’m managing a smoothie shop! I have a (mostly) flexible schedule aside from working four 7-8 hour shifts every Wednesday through Saturday, though the exact times vary weekly. While this means I can’t give 24/7 care to your fur baby, I will show them all the love and attention they deserve in the time we do share together. Thank you for allowing me to spend my free time doing something I wholeheartedly enjoy: spending time with sweet animals!
