Helen's House & Hound Sitting

It's not what you can't do, it's what you can do that counts! New clients MUST be visited before bookings are confirmed and agreed. I don't only care for dogs.

I stay in the clients home with their pets/animals while they are away giving them peace of mind their home is being looked after as much as their pets. Please note, I only offer Day Care in the clients home at my own discretion. I am NOT licensed to offer Boarding, I only look after pets/animals in THEIR own home.

Socialisation Friday for us. Walter having some very important Socialisation training while on a morning outing to Tavistock. We went in the Pannier Market = lots of people and lots of dogs of different breeds, went in the bus station and saw a few buses moving around, went into lots of lovely shops saw lots of different items (both edible and non edible). Just sat and watched the world go by....
We saw wheelchairs, pushchairs, mobility scooters, screaming children, lots of people who wanted to make a fuss of him - at least MOST people asked 🙈 before touching him! Nothing seemed to bother him.
He was a very good boy. Super proud of him😊🙈.

Hello everyone 👋
Just a quick note from me to new clients for next year.
When making an enquiry for specific dates, if you contact me to discuss then decide you don't want the dates please can you let me know ASAP either way so I can offer the dates to other people.
As I am getting increasing amounts of people contact me, want information on dates/prices/how I work etc, then I never hear from them again.....
Which is frustrating for me as I can't plan my diary and give my regular clients the dates they want which they don't like as it means they have to find another Sitter, sometimes at short notice, who won't know their home or their pets routine like I would as their regular Sitter. 🤔. I do hope you understand.

Hello folks👋. Just a quick post to let everyone know that I am currently FULL for this year - unless I get any cancellations (I can usually find some 'wiggle' room somewhere) - and closed to new clients. My diary for 2026 is now fully OPEN from 16 February. I do get booked up quickly 😊. The sooner you book,the more likely you are to get the dates you need 😉
So if you are planning ahead for next year's holidays or extended time away then now is a good time to check your diaries and make those bookings.
Whether you are a regular or booking for the first time I would love to care for your pets/animals and treat them like my own.
