About Helen
Hi there! I’m Helen, a devoted dog lover from Germany now living in Galway with my husband and our two wonderful female dogs—Lexi, a playful 5-year-old Border Collie, and Bumble, a gentle 1-year-old Bordernese. As a fellow dog owner, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring to look after your furry family members.
I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, so I’ll be home all day to look after your dog. I’m happy to take your pup for walks in the nearby woods during my breaks, tailoring our outings to their energy level and routine. Your dog is welcome to spend time in my office, enjoy free roaming, or play with my own dogs—whatever helps them feel most at ease. I always make sure the dogs are supervised and never left on their own, ensuring their safety at all times.
If you have any requests about your dog’s daily routine, dietary needs, or anything else, just let me know! I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos if you’d like, so you can feel confident and at ease while your dog is with me.
We have a large, securely contained walled back garden where your dog can play and relax during the day with lots of cuddles in a loving home environment.
Please remember to bring your dog’s lead, food, bowls, bed, and any other essentials they might need for their stay.
I recommend a pre-meetup and require proof of vaccinations to ensure every dog’s safety and comfort.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask. I look forward to meeting you and your dog, and providing a home-away-from-home while you’re away! :)
