Hi! I’m a sophomore at Ball State University home for the summer and looking for babysitting and dog sitting opportunities. I’m very responsible, dependable, and great with kids of all ages. I enjoy keeping children engaged with activities, helping with routines, and creating a fun, safe environment for them. I’m patient, energetic, and easy to communicate with, and I always want parents to feel comfortable and confident leaving their kids in my care. I also have experience caring for dogs and am happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, and overnight care if needed!
