Information Helene S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs, I adapt to them! I myself took care of an old dog who had injured back legs and could no longer move.

A typical day

Your dog starts with a cheerful morning walk around the neighborhood, where we get some fresh air, stretch our legs, and maybe meet a few friendly pups along the way. Back home, we take a little break time for cuddles, playtime, or just relaxing in a quiet and calm environment. I always make sure your dog feels safe, seen, and cared for. Later, we might head to the dog park inside my building, which is peaceful and secure, perfect for a bit of fun and freedom off-leash. Or, if your dog is feeling adventurous, we can go explore nearby parks or even the beach (just a short walk away!) for some sand and sea breeze. Throughout the day, I follow your dog’s rhythm — some love to play, others just enjoy being near a kind presence.

Helene did a great job walking my dog. My dog is a little shy and she was able to get her to warm up quickly. Would highly recommend her services.

Helene was wonderfull whit my baby. It was mu first time ever in 10 years leaving him and i was reakly nervous but she was great. Chopster can be difficult but he fell in love with her. He takes medication and they didnt miss a dose. Her apartment is beautiful and has space. I didnt need to ask her for photos or anything she upadated me every 6-8 hours with photos and funny things about him. 100% i will ask her to take care of him again.

Helen did a wonderful job taking care of my dog for 2 weeks while I was away on the trip. She took care of him at my place. She sent me updates with pictures and videos that made me so happy to see that Truffle is having a great time while under her care. Thank you so much!
