Pet care experience
Exclusive pet care SAVANNAH Airport
I’m based in Pooler at Forest Lakes (Arbors & Godley Station area), just minutes from Savannah Airport, in a quiet gated community. My goal is simple: to give your dog the calmest, safest, and most loving experience possible. I live in a clean, clutter-free home with a large fenced backyard, perfect for dogs who enjoy space, freedom, and lots of personal attention. I’m very careful about keeping floors and common areas clear, so curious pups won’t find anything unsafe to chew or swallow. What makes my care different? I keep my daycare and boarding very small, with a maximum of 3 guest dogs at a time. Occasionally, if two dogs are from the same family, I may accept one additional compatible guest, but I never create a crowded environment. This number can go in some exceptions till 4 in case an emergency occurs and one of my fur guests needs stay longer, per their parents request. Why? Because your dog deserves my full attention, a peaceful atmosphere, and plenty of one on one care without stress, competition, or overstimulation. I especially love caring for seniors, puppies, and dogs with special needs. Whether your dog needs oral medication, extra patience, mobility assistance, or simply a slower pace, I’m happy to help. Safety is always my top priority. When dogs are in the backyard, I am actively supervising them, I never leave them unattended outside. If your dog doesn’t have a collar attachment for an AirTag, I can provide one for extra peace of mind in case you want. My front door also has an additional retractable safety gate. It may seem a little excessive, but I’ve learned that some furry angels occasionally try to escape from paradise! 🤣 I treat every dog as if they were my own. They are welcome to stay close to me, follow me around the house, relax wherever they’re comfortable, safely explore the yard, and enjoy plenty of affection and supervision throughout the day. I’ve rescued animals for many years, and caring for them is truly my passion. Cats were actually the ones who taught me compassion and inspired my lifestyle, but dogs are my daily joy and specialty. I love both equally. If you’re looking for someone loving, patient, reliable, and close by, your baby will be treated like family in my home. My calendar fills up quickly because I intentionally keep only a small number of guests at a time. Send me a message to schedule a free Meet & Greet ( by video through Rover), and let’s see if we’re the perfect fit for each other.

Dogs are happy and tired, excellent experience!! Thank you!!
My doggies had a fantastic time! Helia was so amazing. Kind, attentive, and sent photos of my boys. She really cares about your babies. They weren't even that excited to leave 🤣 HIGHLY recommended.
Thank you so much for taking our 15 week old baby boy and loving him so much. We were on our way from Tampa up to Charleston and it was great to be able to stop and do a little sightseeing in Savannah and have you take care of her boy. Highly recommended.
Helia took exceptional care of my babies. They were so comfortable with her! She sent me videos and pictures to let me know they were doing well during their stay. She’s truly a blessing! Highly recommend!
Helia is the best! She took such incredible care of my dog. She took her safety needs seriously and adjusted as asked every time. We had travel delays and she was so accommodating and kind. Would absolutely recommend to anyone in the area!!
Outstanding. Helia is a gem! So glad we found her.

Schedule
I’m home full time, so I’m always here, except if I need get groceries or something around. That means your dog is most of time never alone. I structure my day around them: morning backyard time, midday play or rest (whatever they need), afternoon walks around backyard, and evenings close to me. My routine is almost 99% focused on your pet not on managing a crowd. I also love taking pictures and recording for you to feel safe and laughing when you are far away.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My home is minimalist and clutter-free. I keep nothing on the floor that a dog could chew or swallow. The backyard is fully fenced with a lake view, and I never leave a dog outside unsupervised. I’m always watching. They can sleep on my sofa, my bed, or their own bed, no rules. I also do a free meet & greet before any stay, so you can see everything for yourself and ask anything.
A typical day
We start the morning with a quick backyard break. Then breakfast. During the day, I throw a ball against the wall, many dogs love chasing it indoors or out. I aim for at least 5 - 6 outdoor breaks, but honestly, if your dog wants more, they get more. Seniors or low energy dogs set the pace. Every day is flexible. The only fixed rule: they get my full attention, play and having fun. Also please ask me any questions anytime.
