Leslie $35 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Leslie, and I'm a warm, reliable sitter with 2-3 years of experience caring for children and pets. My goal is to ensure a safe, fun, and happy environment for everyone in your family. I specialize in caring for school-aged children and pre-teens, focusing on activities that match their energy and interests. I love encouraging creativity with arts and crafts, getting active by playing sports, and fostering imagination through reading books. I'm happy to assist with homework, manage after-school routines, and prepare simple, healthy meals. I am committed to making sure your children feel secure, engaged, and well-cared for while you're away. I have a great fondness for animals and experience caring for a variety of pets, including both big and small dogs, as well as cats. Whether your dog is a tiny terrier or a large lab, or your cat needs quiet cuddle time, I provide attentive care that meets their specific needs. This includes walks, playtime, feeding, and making sure they get plenty of affection. I'm comfortable with animals that shed and will always treat your pets with the love and respect they deserve! I look forward to meeting your family and discussing how I can provide the best support for your home!
