Pet Sitter


American Red Cross Certified in Pet CPR and Pet First Aid I've been a pet owner my entire life and understand that pets are truly a part of your family. I've personally trained my dogs, since a well behaved dog is a pleasure to have, especially around friends, family and those that want to pet your dog.


During my previous position as Director of Campaign Services, I helped raise money through workplace giving campaigns for the following organizations: Best Friends Animal Society Canines Partners for Life The Humane Society of the United States The Jane Goodall Institute for Wildlife Research, Education and Conservation PETsMart Charities I've pet sat as a hobby for several years off and on and really enjoyed helping others care for their pets. Whenever I traveled on business or went on vacation it was extremely important for me to know that my pet was being feed, exercised and loved. I will treat your pets as if they were my own. As a fellow pet owner I understand that having peace of mind while you're away is invaluable. Because of my love for animals and pet sitting I'm affiliated with the several animal organizations. I'm a member Pet Sitters International and The Humane Society of the United States. I've also volunteered or supported Paws for a Cause, Pets on Wheels and the Northern Virginia Wildlife Rescue League. Locally I support the SPCA of Virginia Beach and Friends of Virginia Beach Animal Control. Helen DeHarde, Owner Call (757) 425-PETS (7387)
