Love cats! I can take care of multiple cats including ones with special needs. Happy to do overnight pet sitting if your cats need someone around more than a few minutes a day.
Hi! My name is Erin. I’m 30 and work full time in HR at a finance company. I grew up in Westchester and go back often to visit my family. I love kids and have a lot of experience babysitting in high school and college. I live in the West Village with my new kitty! Please message me with any questions or if you’d like a reference!
Hi! I’m Ashitaka, a CPR-certified preschool teacher and children’s gymnastics instructor with over 2 years of experience supporting little ones as they grow, learn, and play. I specialize in working with toddlers and early childhood age groups, and I bring a warm, high-energy, and creative approach to caregiving. As a Broadway actor and performer, I love incorporating music, movement, and storytelling into everyday moments — from dance breaks to dramatic storytime. I’m comfortable with meal times, routines, transitions, and sensory play, and I thrive in environments where kids feel both safe and celebrated. Helping children feel confident, curious, and cared for is at the heart of what I do. I’d love to be part of a home where joy and structure go hand in hand!
Hi! My name is Willow and I am a recent grad from NYU. I have some babysitting experience for other families in high school, but most of my experience is with my younger brother from the ages of 0-4. Responsibilities include running errands, outdoor time, crafting, cooking, cleaning the house, and bedtime. I am flexible, warm and patient. Right now I am working part time at Brooklinen, where much of my focus is on making sure people feel welcome. I love meeting new people, and work great one-on-one. Outside of customer service, my job is to maintain a clean and comfortable space. I am calm, flexible, and comfortable balancing interaction with organizational tasks. I also have dog and cat sitting experience. I have had pets my whole life- I love animals and am very comfortable with their care. I have experience with nannying for senior cats over an extended period, and am comfortable with feeding, changing litter, giving medication and playing. With my own dogs, I am comfortable walking them daily, and taking care of hygiene such as teeth brushing and hair brushing.

"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."
