Magic!
Since my dog passed away, my only helper is my boyfriend - does he count? My dog would always sit, continually wag his tail and bark at, well, the bark actually (!) while I potted on the kitchen counter. My b/f just has strict instructions not to try and pass me things like phones, cups of tea, laundry etc. while I'm up to my eyes in bark dirt!

Pretty much the same here for me.
Other Helpers!?... er... nope.
Hubby is not exactly green of thumb.
The cat prefers to just meow at me, almost as if ordering me about... and it likes to paff me round the head when I'm trying to do things. No claws, just a swipe with his pad... Bizarre creature!

I have one little helper that I sometimes with wouldn't. My daughter is a wonderful little person, but sometimes "help" is relative to what she does.

That's really cool, what great helpers.
I don't have any pets, so hubby gets to help sometimes, but other than that it's just me.

We don't know, - we call her mostly whippet because she looks almost pure whippet except that she's well built and retrieves, which apparently is unusual for whippets in general. She was a rescue, and we have had her for four years.
Your dog is lovely!
