Wendy $20 per hour for 1 child
Hello, I’m Wendy and I love working with kids of all ages and all types of pets! I have done a lot of babysitting over the years and have a 17 year old son. I have a lot of experience with cats, dogs and horses as well. I work part time for a chiropractor as the office manager, but we’re a newer business so we don’t have enough patients to be there full time. I have a positive attitude and I’m compassionate and understanding. Reading and doing activities with kids are some of my favorite things to do while babysitting. My hobbies include reading, horseback riding and spending time with our 3 cats and 1 dog. I hope to hear from you and have an opportunity to meet your kids and or pets!

Alex $17 per hour for 1 child
Hello, my name is Alex! I am a recent graduate of OSU with a psychology degree, and I am now looking to save up for graduate school. I love spending time outdoors in nature or inside watching movies and reading with my cat. I have 5+ years of experience with elementary to middle school aged kids. A lot of my experience comes from my position as latchkey counselor within my school district’s elementary schools, as well as my time babysitting for multiple families in my area. Alongside my experience watching kids, I also have years of experience pet sitting for dogs and cats and multiple years of professionally cleaning houses that were being prepared to go on the market. I always bring an upbeat, energetic, and kind attitude towards any work I do. This allows for a warm, welcoming, and positive environment that the kids will absolutely love. I am very big on allowing children to be who they are by encouraging them to be creative and by participating in their activities and games. I’m available for nights any day of the week, with possible availability for some mornings or afternoons. I hope we make a great match and I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you for your time! :)

"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."
