Esther $14 per hour for 1 child

I’m a dependable and attentive pet and house sitter with experience caring for dogs, cats, and other small animals. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and administering basic medications. I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while keeping their normal routines. I also take great care of homes by bringing in mail, watering plants, light cleaning, and ensuring everything stays secure and well maintained while you’re away.

Sara $15 per hour for 1 child

Hello! My name is Sara and I am currently a student at Kent State University for my bachelors in nursing. I am offering housesitting, cleaning, running errands, and caring/watching pets and children. I personally enjoy babysitting because I love kids or knowing that I can care for them and it is something rewarding for me. I have been watching over my families and friends kids since I was 13. I have most experience between the ages 3-10. This includes babysitting, overnights, or driving them to school and practices when needed. I also offer pet sitting services. I grew up always having at least 3 pets or watching others pets including dogs, fish, cats, bunnies, and ferrets. Thank you!

Alice $15 per hour for 1 child

I have experience helping at my mom’s daycare caring for children from infants to 10 years old. I’m especially comfortable with toddlers and older children. I also regularly care for my 3-year-old baby brother, which has helped me become patient, responsible, and attentive. I enjoy working with kids and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

Layla $13 per hour for 1 child

Hi!! My name is Layla and I am currently a freshman at Kent State majoring in fashion design. I grew up babysitting my younger cousins quite frequently, and as I got older I started babysitting for family friends and families from my church. Over the years I have really come to love babysitting because getting to know each kid is such a fun and new experience. I’ve always loved kids because they are so naturally loving and full of surprises. Because of this, babysitting can sometimes be a challenge, but I pride myself in staying calm even under pressure. I also have experience in sewing, baking, arts and crafts, and would be able to help with early stages of childhood literacy, reading comprehension, or homework. I am also willing to help with light meal prep and tidying up at the end of the day. Punctuality, safety, and household rules and routines are my top priorities. I can’t wait to hear from you and get to know you and your family!

Christian $15 per hour for 1 child

Hi! My name is Christian but I also go by Azariah. I am currently studying at KSU, and am looking for a side gig to allow me to still work as I go to school. I am currently offering services for kids, pets, and household. As the oldest of a huge family, I have been helping to take care of kids since I could talk. I have also had professional experience as a baby sitter since the age of 13. I have handled kids with disabilities as well as adults. I have a cat of my own so I am well versed with taking care of animals. I am a very hands on person so I try to help kids with learning as well as school work. I am also a big foodie and love to cook, the more people the better. I do have a driver's license as well so I can run errands and the like. I can bring trusted to clean up any messes whether it be mine or someone else's.
