Booked by 1 family in Belmont, CA

Hi, my name is Maddy. I am a recent SDSU graduate with a bachelors in kinesiology. My goal with my degree is to become an occupational therapist in the future. I offer pet care and household services. I am experienced with cats and dogs. I have grown up with cats my whole life and am capable of feeding, playing, and tending to cat litter. I have had a dog for the past seven years and am able to walk, feed, and play with them. I am comfortable with large animals and those that shed. I offer services in cleaning, cooking, laundry, errands, and organizing. I also enjoy baking and would be happy to make some sweet treats upon request of the family. A fun fact about me is I saw John Cena at the mall in San Diego one time.

“We hired Maddie for recurring visits for evening Household services, specifically helping us tidy up and reset for the next day (important with two young kids!). She was on time, committed, and receptive to changing priorities. We had her focus on the kitchen, laundry, play room, kids rooms, and kids bath tidying. It was a huge help and she did a great job!”

Booked by 1 family in Belmont, CA

My name is Victoria, and I am offering child care, senior care, and household services. Growing up in a big family with 7 siblings and 21 nephews and nieces, caring for others has always come naturally to me. I have years of hands-on experience with children of all ages. With so many little ones in my own family, I am comfortable with the joys and challenges that come with every stage of childhood. Whether it's helping with homework, organizing activities, or simply being a warm and reliable presence, I love being a helping hand. I am also happy to assist with household tasks such as cooking, cleaning, and running errands, making daily life a little easier for the families I work with. When it comes to senior care, my big family has taught me the value of looking after those who need extra support. I am patient, attentive, and always ready to help with meals, appointments, or simply good company. If your family could use an extra pair of loving, capable hands, I'd love to connect!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
