Hi! I am a graduate of UMass Boston with over 10 years of experience working with children. I’ve gained my expertise through roles in Boston Public Schools, Case Manager, two years of nannying for a family with twins, and babysitting for various sitter apps. Throughout my career, I have worked with children of all ages and diverse cultural backgrounds. I am responsible, trustworthy, loving, caring, fun, and active. I enjoy doing arts and crafts and playing sports with kids. I am confident that I will be a great fit for your needs. I look forward to hearing from you!

I'm a Registered Behavior Technician who loves caring for both children and animals. My career has taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and providing compassionate, individualized care—qualities I bring to every pet I look after. I'm a proud pet parent to my sweet tabby cat, Milo, and my Great Pyrenees mix, Sadie. They are truly part of my family, so I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping a familiar routine, I'll treat them with the same care and attention I give my own.

40/M/Apex - I grew up with a Golden Retriever named Fenway, a Vizsla named Punkin, and now I have a 4 year old, 6lb Yorkie named Mosby. I have successfully watched a French Bulldog on a few occasions and have been referred to as the BryMCA...so there's that.

Hello! I am friendly, reliable, and punctual. I love working with kids and also pets such as dogs and cats. I have years of experience engaging with little ones while being patient, attentive, and organized. I always ensure your child's safety comes first while also having lots of fun and learning new things. Please reach out if you think I could be a great fit for your family :)
“Abby was more than wonderful! We booked her last minute to help support with my nephew. Even with uncertain weather, Abby not only showed up but showed out. She was punctual, dependable and my nephew Kam couldn't wait for her to come back the next day. They did crafts together and we were impressed with the way she maintained routine even though she was new to all instructions. Absolutely recommend Abby!”

Lots of experience taking care of cats and dogs. I have pets of my own and have looked after neighborhood animals for many years. I am responsible and caring and would love to take care of your fur babies so you can relax and enjoy some time away.
“Did everything that was needed- took great care of my pets and sent pictures of their happy faces, which I loved seeing.”

"UrbanSitter is my go-to for quality sitters! I can book weeks ahead of time or easily find a same-day sitter when in a bind. I even hired a part-time nanny during a daycare transition. Customer service is helpful and babysitters respond in a timely manner."
