I am a 26-year-old professional with a degree in Elementary Education and extensive experience working with children. I began babysitting throughout high school and college, developing strong skills in childcare, communication, and creating a safe and nurturing environment.

Booked by 1 family in Aurora, CO

With a background as a previous certified facility dog handler, growing up with a family dog, and providing occasional care for friends' dogs and cats, I am confident in managing pets of various temperaments, sizes, and personalities! As an active individual working from home three days a week, I can offer flexible scheduling to accommodate midday potty breaks and walks. I am committed to providing personalized attention to meet your pet's individualized needs, whatever they may be! Side note: also am marathon training this summer if your dog needs a jog :)

Henry $21 per hour for 1 child

Hi there! My name is Henry and I have been taking care of my sister and my pets since I was 10 years old! My parents often traveled for work which led to me being the one they relied on! I have taken care of my neighbors family many times and I find the time I spend with them very rewarding! I do modeling part time and have worked customer service since I was 15! I find that as long as you take the time to understand who you are working with, there is always a logical solution to whatever problem arises! I always like to discuss with family what they are use to and what they respond best to! This helps me determine the best course of action when It comes to caring for their loved ones!

"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!"
