Booked by 1 family in Altadena, CA

I began doing dog sitting for family and friends pups since I was in high school. Now I have two lovely fur babies of my own. I have many years of experience with dogs. I have met many wonderful fur friends by dog sitting. I always treat and take care of all dogs as if they were my own. I truly love to get to know pups!

“Noemi is the absolute best and I’m so glad that she joined Urban Sitter. She is dependable, skilled and so very kind. My dogs love her very much and I am comfortable knowing they are safe and well cared for. ”

Hello, my name is Tugs-Erkh, and my nickname is Kuala, like the bear. I have 4 years of in-home nannying experience working with infants, toddlers, and school-aged children. I also have 3 years of early childhood developmental experience in preschool and pediatric therapy settings. I'm energetic and sweet, and I love child-led play and exploration of the world. As a caretaker, I like incorporating various activities related to art, reading, imaginative play, fine and large motor skills, and outdoor activities. I highly value safety, common sense, and maintaining the child's well-being. I am Adult and Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED certified. I have extensive experience with meal prep, bottle feeding, naptime, cleaning/ organizing the home, and caring for pets. With my previous childcare experience combined with my background in Waldorf education, Social Work, and early childhood development, I am confident that I would be an excellent fit for your family. Thank you!

"Johanna is AMAZING! My two boys love her - she does everything from amazing arts & crafts, to helping with homework, to getting them playing outside! She also drives them and does everything involved with after school activities: packing snacks, getting the right gear, etc."

"When we hired Amani, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We were very lucky to find her on UrbanSitter at the beginning of school year. She was picking up kids from school, taking them to afternoon activities, helping them with assignments. She prepped food for them, helped organize their closets and keep their spaces neat and orderly. We would hire her again in a heartbeat."

"Caitlin has been such a lifesaver for our family. We hired Caitlin to help with the after school routine. The kids took to her instantly. She does it all - school pick ups, dinners, baths, lunch making, clean up, etc. She has really helped make a busy time so much easier for us."
