Paula Helm is a wonderful caregiver and pet sitter. My dogs love her! She makes every experience very personable and her vet tech experience comes in handy! I would recommend her to everyone with pets for a kind and loving experience.

Paula H.'s Experience
With a lifelong passion for animals and an Associate's degree in Equine Sciences, I bring over two decades of experience in Veterinary Medicine, including 12 years as a Lead Veterinary Technician. I specialize in caring for multiple species, feline behavior, and pets with special medical or behavioral needs, ensuring every pet in my care receives a loving, knowledgeable touch. While your pet is in my care I will keep you updated each day with photos and messages letting you know they are doing just fine. My goal is to ensure you are worry free whenever you have to be away from your special friend knowing that they are in the very best of hands.
Paula's Availability
Information Paula H. would like to know
Does your dog/cat have any medical problems currently? In the past? Are there particular things your pet does or does not like ie, areas touched, food/toy protective, easily startled, grooming-yes/no etc. What are some favorite activities your pet likes? Favorite treats? What words do you use for common commands such as sitting, laying down, getting off of something etc. What are some, if any "quirks" your pet exhibits ie, chases tail, randomly spins circles, howls, anything ocd, food gorging etc. Where are some common hiding places to look for pet if you call and they don't come out( mostly for cats).
A typical day
My typical day blends my work-from-home routine with caring for my elderly mother and nurturing my own cats. I enjoy dog walks and drop-in visits, taking time to unwind with a good book or documentary, ensuring each moment is special for the pets I care for.
