Hello, I have experience caregiving for an elderly person daily for 1 year and am capable of handling tasks for those around me who are unable to do so. I have watched Children of relatives for weekends or when their parents go out of town/vactions, managed their needs of getting them to school and preparing meals for the week. I am a pet owner myself and have a pet-sitting background for Dogs & Cats. I am easy going and always willing to attend to the needs of those under my care. Thank you for reading this. May this message find you well and I hope I can be a caregiver for your requests/needs. Have a great day.

Reliable, caring, and detail-oriented, I take pride in creating a safe and comfortable environment for both pets and homes. I have experience with cats, dogs and lizards of all temperaments and treat every animal like family. Whether it’s pet sitting, house sitting, or helping with light chores, I’m dependable and respectful of your space. I aim to bring peace of mind while you’re away. Friendly, communicative, and always attentive to the little details.
