$20 per hour for 1 child

I am recently retired from a lengthy career in advertising sales. I currently have two part-time jobs and am looking to pet sit on the side for extra cash. I am frienly and outgoing and most people and animals like me. Regarding pets they must be friendly with me and other pets. I will need to visit a few days prior to see if your pet responds to me. I had to turn down a petsitting job because the dog did not take a liking to me and nipped at my calf muscle twice. I do have references. I do need to schedule petsitting gigs around my part-time jobs and I am available for overnight stays depending on my schedule. I am mature and you do not have to worrry about me inviting guests into your home. That will never happen with me.

I am a very extraverted, fun, loving, caring, welcoming, outgoing, and faith filled mother of 5 children. I have 29 years of experience in taking care of kids. I currently am taking care of a 5 year old boy and have been taking care of him since he was 2. I spend time playing with him, singing with him, making crafts with him, and make sure the time he spends with me is a fun one! I personally potty trained him, and my current responsibilities are to feed, clothe, and bathe him. I have taken him with me to do outdoor activities and can keep a very watchful eye on kids. Before taking care of him I watched two other young boys from a married couple. I kept them very preoccupied with various activities. I was responsible for feeding them breakfast and lunch, as well as making sure to clothe them and making sure they went to the bathroom. Before I left the house I kept it very clean. I have a wide variety of cooking skills which makes it easier on parents to have their kids eat what they would like them to eat. If you're looking for someone to clean your home I am a very thorough cleaner. I am open to watching any small pets since I use to own a Cocker Spaniel Poodle and a cat. I am open to watching anyone that is elderly and perform basic tasks. I am willing to open up my home for watching anyone as well as travel to your home. Whatever is most convenient. If your looking for a mother's touch, that is definitely me.

"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!"
