Hi! My name is Paul and I’m currently a sophomore at Miami University. I offer babysitting, pet care, and house care services. I've always enjoyed spending time with children, whether it's with cousins or other family members—and I'm great at making sure they’re entertained and safe! I'm happy to help with all kinds of activities, including games, reading, and bedtime routines. I also love animals and can provide care for any of your furry friends, including feeding, walks, and playtime. If you need help around the house—cleaning, organizing, or running errands—I’d be happy to assist. I’ll be heading back to school at the end of the summer, but I’m available to help whenever I can before then. Feel free to reach out if you think I’d be a good fit for your family!

I am recently retired from a lengthy career in advertising sales. I currently have two part-time jobs and am looking to pet sit on the side for extra cash. I am frienly and outgoing and most people and animals like me. Regarding pets they must be friendly with me and other pets. I will need to visit a few days prior to see if your pet responds to me. I had to turn down a petsitting job because the dog did not take a liking to me and nipped at my calf muscle twice. I do have references. I do need to schedule petsitting gigs around my part-time jobs and I am available for overnight stays depending on my schedule. I am mature and you do not have to worrry about me inviting guests into your home. That will never happen with me.

I am a patient, loving person who enjoys creating connections with the children I care for. I love being a part of their growth and fostering their autonomy and independence. I have over three years of experience caring for children of all ages, particularly with infants and toddlers, as well as certifications in First Aid and CPR. My skills range from meal preparation to sleep strategies. Being bilingual, I enjoy speaking with them in both Spanish and English while doing arts and crafts, playing, and learning together.
