My name is Ava, and I am an 18-year-old caregiver with experience in babysitting, pet sitting, and house sitting. I have approximately four years of hands-on experience caring for children and over eight years of experience working with animals. I am reliable, responsible, and dedicated to creating a safe, clean, and positive environment for families and pets. I have three to four years of experience caring for toddlers and grade-school children. While my experience with infants is limited, I am eager and willing to learn. I am comfortable assisting with daily routines such as getting children ready for school or bed, preparing basic meals, helping with homework, and maintaining schedules. I enjoy engaging children through activities like coloring, watching shows, playing games, and taking them to parks or fun outings. I also have my own car, allowing me to safely transport children to and from school or activities when needed. Additionally, I am certified in CPR, First Aid, and AED. In terms of pet care, I have experience with a wide range of animals, including dogs of all sizes and breeds—from Cane Corsos to Yorkies—as well as reptiles and small animals. My services include feeding, walking, playing, basic training, cage cleaning, and general care. I have no allergies and am comfortable caring for long-haired animals and pets of any size. For household support, I offer cleaning, tidying, laundry, organizing, plant care, cooking basic meals, and running errands. I can also provide my own cleaning supplies if required. I take pride in being dependable, adaptable, and attentive to the unique needs of each household.
My name is Emylee. I am available to babysit. I also have some experience with babies and I am very patient and do not mind crying or anything like that. I am willing to work with parents to figure out hours that will work for both of us. I can do pet care. I am willing to help with homework, clean, and do fun activities with those I am watching.
I am a proud mom of two beautiful daughters who are now 22 and 20 years old. Raising them gave me so much hands-on experience with children of all ages, and I absolutely loved every stage. I also have professional experience working in daycare settings, especially with infants and toddlers. I've cared for babies from a very young age, handling feeding, naps, diapering, and all the daily routines with patience and care. In addition, I've had the opportunity to support children with special needs through activities tailored to their abilities, and I really enjoy creating fun, engaging play-based activities that help kids learn and grow—whether it's sensory play, arts and crafts, music, outdoor time, or simple developmental games. I'm reliable, nurturing, and energetic, and I treat every child as if they were my own. I'd love to chat more about how I can support your family! Looking forward to hearing from you,
Hi! I’m Odessa, a recent BFA Fine Arts graduate from Montclair State University, and I offer experienced, creative, and dependable childcare and pet care. I’m a Teaching Artist, who’s worked with children since 2021 across a wide range of ages. I’m currently a full-time K–3 tutor, supporting students with daily learning with age-appropriate activities. I’ve also worked as a full-time Co-Lead Preschool Teacher with toddlers and preschoolers, as well as a Lead Art Instructor and Art Assistant with children ages 3–17 through summer programs. These experiences have taught me how to adapt my approach to different ages, personalities, learning styles, and energy levels. I especially enjoy keeping children engaged through creative activities like painting, drawing, crafts, storytelling, educational games, and imaginative play. I’m also happy to help with homework, prepare simple meals, support bedtime routines, and create a structured but fun environment. I value patience, clear communication, and making sure children feel comfortable, heard, and encouraged. My pet-care experience dates back to 2024, including mostly dog walking and recently house sitting. I’m comfortable handling feeding, walks 1–2 times daily, playtime, basic routines, and medication dispensing when instructions are provided. I’m comfortable with small to medium-sized dogs and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I am unfortunately allergic to cats, so I’m unable to provide cat care. I’m currently available for part-time babysitting and dog sitting and would be happy to build a trusting relationship with your family. I may be new to UrbanSitter reviews, but I bring several years of hands-on childcare experience, teaching experience, and a genuine love for working with children and animals. Whether your family needs an afternoon babysitter, homework help, a creative playmate, or reliable dog care, I’d love the opportunity to help
“Gabby was honestly so good with my kids. My toddler, she can take a little while to warm up to new people, but Gabby was really patient with her and made her feel comfortable pretty quickly. My 5 year old had so much fun with her and he was still talking about her after she left lol. She kept me updated, handled both of them really well, and I never felt like I had to worry while I was away. Would definitely have her back!”
Hi! I'm Sarah, it's nice to meet you! My education: I recently graduated from college with a Bachelor's in Psychology and Philosophy. Currently I am a graduate student pursuing a Master's in Professional Counseling. I have taken classes on development and childhood as part of my course work. My experience with children: I have babysat mostly school-age children in the past (5-13), but I have some experience with toddlers as well. I also used to lead a crafting and learning time at a nature center in high school, where I taught kids about an aspect of nature/the environment and lead them through a related art project. I am able to help with homework and love making learning fun. My experience with pets: I have owned many different kinds of pets including dogs, snakes, birds, bunnies, and even an alligator! I love animals and am a fast learner for any animal I don't have experience with. A bit about me: I am the oldest of 7 kids, so growing up I often took on caretaking roles around the house. I loved tutoring my younger siblings, cooking dinner for my family, and generally "babysitting" them when my parents weren't home. My oldest brother is on the autism spectrum and has a variety of special needs, which has given me some first hand experience with what taking care of a special needs individual can look like. My siblings also gave me experience navigating dietary restrictions and severe allergies.
“Sarah works great with my daughter & we look forward to seeing her again! ”
