Naszier $13 per hour for 1 child
What makes me a good caregiver is having fun and building connections with the one’s I will supervise. I have two dogs and also a baby cousin that I would babysit A-LOT so i would say that i am experienced in caregiving for infants/toddlers, pets, and possibly seniors. I am also a very clean person so the family will not have to worry about coming back home to a mess. I chose this because I feel like I have a connection with babies I just love them, and also pets.
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.
