Which helper method do I use to open the database in this challenge? I've tried a few different guesses based on MemeSQLiteHelper but I'm not having any luck.
PetSQLiteHelper petSQLiteHelper = new PetSQLiteHelper(context);
SQLiteDatabase database = petSQLiteHelper.getWriteableDatabase();

You're so close to finishing this Task. The spelling you want is getWritableDatabase. For further reference, the documentation for the parent class is located here. If you need any more help, please let me know and i will try to assist further.

13,316 PointsThank you James! I've been going crazy trying to figure this out; I knew that I had the right method, I was even looking right at it but I still got the spelling wrong :^/
Next time I'll cut/paste...
