Hello, I’m Helena! I’m 18 years old and have been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember. For me, pets are not just animals – they are family members, and I treat them with the same love, care, and respect. I grew up surrounded by animals and currently care for 8 cats and 2 dogs, which has given me strong hands-on experience with daily pet care. This includes feeding, grooming, cleaning, playtime, and understanding different personalities and behaviors. I also have experience caring for birds and am comfortable adapting to different types of pets and their specific needs. I am a calm, patient, and attentive person. I always adjust my approach to each pet—whether they are energetic and playful or shy and reserved—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood. Maintaining routine is very important to me, so I follow your pet’s usual schedule closely, including feeding times, walks, and rest periods. During each visit or stay, I structure my care to ensure consistency and comfort. This typically includes checking food and water, cleaning bowls or litter areas if needed, spending quality time playing or giving attention, and observing your pet’s behavior to make sure everything is normal. Walks are adapted to your dog’s energy level and routine, usually lasting between 1 to 2 hours. Safety is always my priority. I make sure pets are supervised, secure, and in a calm environment at all times. In case of an emergency, I remain calm and act quickly. I will follow your instructions, contact you immediately, and if necessary, take your pet to a veterinarian without delay. I am also comfortable administering basic medication (such as oral medication), as long as clear instructions are provided. To give you peace of mind, I’m happy to send regular updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is simple: to treat every pet like family and ensure they feel happy, loved, and stress-free while you are away. I can care for a maximum of 4 animals at a time to guarantee each one receives enough attention and quality care. I look forward to meeting you and your pet!
