Booked by 1 family in Half Moon Bay, CA

Hi! My name is Sam, and I am a recent college grad looking for some supplemental income while entering the job market. I am great with pets, and have been taking care of my own cat Lou for many years. I have pet-sat for friends and clients for over 4 years, and have experience taking care of pets with medications and other medical needs. With my own cat, I know how important it is to find a flexible and trustworthy petsitter! I am happy to walk dogs, spend time with pets during the day, and feed and care for pets while you are away. My schedule is very flexible, so I have plenty of time to visit your pet during the day or schedule over-night stays during the week or weekend. I happy to adapt to whatever quirks and emotional or physical needs your pet has! If there are any medical needs or personality issues to be aware of, I would love to organize a visit ahead of time to get to know the pet and their home. I am also happy to do other small things around the house as needed, like watering plants or bringing in packages.

“Samantha has taken phenomenal care of my puppy the past few months. She is responsible and respectful and has been a great communicator.”

Hi families! My name is Lillian, and I'm a dedicated, reliable caregiver with 6 years of hands-on childcare experience with infants and toddlers. I truly love working with children and take pride in building strong, trusting relationships with both kids and parents. I am recognized as someone who is very fun, caring, and supportive. I enjoy keeping children engaged and active whether that's park outings, museum trips, storytime, or creative play at home. I always focus on creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where kids can grow and feel supported. I have my own car and insurance and am currently looking full-time work, preferably long term. I take my role seriously and treat every family I work with like my own. I am happy to provide references as well. I'd love to connect and answer any questions you may have and hopefully meet!

"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."
