Former Vet Technician loves pets!

Pet care experience

I can come by, walk dogs, feed cats, take care of litter boxes, or anything else your pet(s) may need including administering medicine! I am happy to stay at your home or just visit and send pictures via text. I have taken care of a few kitties in the DMV over the past years and would love to take care of more clients. I can probably get you referrals if you would like them. Thanks :). Please note I work full-time, if your dog is used to this then I’m a good fit. I do give your pet the full attention when I am there and I always send pictures and will communicate what is going on with your pet. I love spending time with them. Note I just moved back to Silver Spring but will travel back to Virgina for my repeat clients for house sitting. Note if you are a new client, I prefer a meet and greet at least a week before your trip.

As usual we came home to a very happy pup. Helene did a wonderful job of caring for Tiger and keeping us aware of how he was doing each and every day. She’s the best!!

This is the second time we w had Helene here to care for our animals. She is amazing! She takes such good care of them and sends daily updates which we so appreciate. Great communication and leaves the house clean and organized. We highly recommend her!
