Single country lady with a love of travel and pets

About Sitter:

Hi, my name is Helan and I’m a fit retiree who lives in Yamba, northern NSW. I grew up in the country, caring for every conceivable animal from rabbits, horses ,lambs, poddy calves and even kangaroos! You name it! I’ve had only two dogs throughout my life, both were Lab Kelpie crosses and lived till 18 and 17 - so definitely blessed to have 2 additional children in the family!

My son and his wife are currently relocating to Hobart from America so I’m heading down, initially for Christmas then further visits the following year. However house sitting is perfect as I don’t want to be always in their space!!

I joined Mad Paws when I lived in Wagga Wagga and loved welcoming dogs and cats into my home while their parents were away- so I got my pet “fix” on regular basis! Now moved up north and I miss the animals in my life!

I’ve done numerous farm sits for family members , allowing them to have a well deserved holiday without worrying about home!

I firmly believe it’s important to treat your pets and home as my own, so that on your return everything is clean and tidy - may even sort dinner for you on your return!!

So please consider me when you need someone to look after your for babies!
