Hi! My name is Shelby and I have always had a passion for animals. Ever since I was a little girl, I knew I wanted to work directly with animals. That passion led me to a career as a Zoo Keeper, for two of the nations top zoos. In addition to my years of experience as a zoo keeper, I also spent 3 years as a veterinarian assistant. I am a trained and caring individual that will treat your pets with the same love and attention.

Rebecca $20 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I’m Rebecca, a dependable, compassionate, and responsible caregiver with more than 20 years of experience working with children of all ages, as well as hands-on experience caring for seniors and a wide variety of pets. My childcare experience includes babysitting, after-school care, teaching swim lessons, VBS, and working in a church nursery. I’m comfortable caring for infants through school-age children and understand the importance of creating a safe, fun, patient, and nurturing environment. I also have personal experience providing senior care, having been my Granny’s primary caregiver. I understand that senior care is about much more than completing tasks—it’s about providing companionship, patience, dignity, and dependable support. Animals are another area I genuinely love. I have extensive experience pet sitting and boarding dogs, along with caring for cats, bunnies, reptiles, hermit crabs, and fish. I have excellent references and take the responsibility of caring for someone’s pets and home very seriously. I’m also happy to help with light housekeeping, laundry, cooking, meal preparation, errands, organization, transportation, companionship, and other everyday tasks that make life easier for a family. I take pride in being someone people can trust. I’m attentive to details, safety-conscious, dependable, and willing to go the extra mile. Whether I’m caring for a child, senior, pet, or helping around the home, my goal is always to provide thoughtful, reliable care and leave things better than I found them. I would love the opportunity to learn about your needs and see how I can help. Thank you for considering me—I look forward to meeting you!

"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!"
