Zaharah $22 per hour for 1 child

I am an experienced and caring dog and cat sitter who loves creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet I care for. I offer both boarding and daytime care, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I have experience with many breeds, personalities, and ages, including puppies, seniors, and pets with special routines. I’m patient, responsible, and very attentive to each pet’s needs, whether that means playtime, walks, cuddles, or keeping up with feeding and medication schedules. I understand how important it is for families to feel confident when leaving their pets, so I always provide updates, photos, and clear communication. My goal is to give your pets a happy, stress-free experience and to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I truly enjoy building trust with both pets and their families.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
