Love cats! I can take care of multiple cats including ones with special needs. Happy to do overnight pet sitting if your cats need someone around more than a few minutes a day.
Donna $24 per hour for 1 child
Hi! I’m Donna. I’m a warm, patient, and creative person who genuinely loves spending time with kids. I’m an aunt to a 7- and 9-year-old, and we spend our time doing arts and crafts, learning piano, and having real conversations — I always talk to kids like they’re people with their own thoughts, and they respond so well to that. I’ve also worked with children from preschool through high school at a tutoring company in San Diego, supporting them with everything from math to social studies. In my career as a producer, I’m extremely responsible and detail-oriented, so routines, safety, and clear communication come naturally to me. I’m great at planning engaging, screen-free activities and creating a calm, fun environment. I’ve cared for animals for years too — five years of hamsters and even fostering a puppy — so I’m comfortable with pets. Most importantly, I truly value these experiences because I hope to adopt children of my own someday. Spending time with kids brings me joy, and I take the responsibility seriously. Overall, I’m reliable, kind, and easy to work with. I’d love to support your family however I can.
Naliah $21 per hour for 1 child
Hi, I'm Naliah. My goal is to be an Art teacher. I love to sing, dance and draw. I am very creative and enjoy arts and craft activities. I am a great storyteller and conversationalist. Overall, I'm just a fun person to be around. I can help with cleaning and organizing. I am responsible and careful. I look forward to working with you.
