Booked by 1 family in Sunnyside, NY

I'm a 37 year old mostly WFH advertising writer who loves dogs, cats, kids and has plenty of time to hang out with yours! I've pet sat since I was a kid and have always enjoyed helping out owners while getting quality time with a variety of fun pets. I live in Cobble Hill and am very close to several parks and paths where I love to walk. I’ve marked that I'm fine with pets being on the furniture (because who doesn’t love snuggles!) but we’ll enforce any rules you have for consistency.

“Sarah is an absolutely incredible dogsitter! She has watched my shiba inu, Goji, for several years and he is truly obsessed with her. Sarah is kind, responsible, reliable, and highly competent at dog care. We feel lucky to have found Sarah as a sitter and always trust that Goji is in good hands with her.”

Devin $21 per hour for 1 child

I am currently a rising junior at the University of Southern California and want to go into the public relations field. I started babysitting at the age of 14, and love immersing myself into the imaginations of the children I watch over - whether it’s building train tracks or dreaming of an entire piano concert. I have experience dropping children off at extracurricular activities, playing games and coloring, helping with homework, bedtime routines, cooking, and cleaning kitchens/residual messes. I also spent a semester as a student teacher for a class of 5-year-olds, where I helped teach math and worked one-on-one with students who needed extra attention. In this role, I helped discipline the children while encouraging them to become bright, passionate young learners. In my personal time, I love reading and going for walks around the city, but most especially I love trying new ice cream spots :)

I'm a native New Yorker working on getting my undergraduate in Fashion Design. I have 5+ years experience in childcare, and can work with children or infants. As of recently, I have worked with toddlers and older babies. In my free time I love to sew, go to the park and make music!

Candace $25 per hour for 1 child

My name is Candace and I’m offering child care and household services. I am an energetic, responsible, and experienced childcare professional with a passion for creating fun, engaging, and memorable experiences for children of all ages. My background includes working with children in educational, recreational, and entertainment settings, allowing me to build strong connections while fostering creativity, confidence, and learning. As a performer with Disney Cruise Line, I had the opportunity to inspire and entertain children daily through music, storytelling, and dance. I also worked as a dance instructor teaching children ages 6 months to 8 years old, helping them develop coordination, self-expression, and confidence in a positive and encouraging environment. In addition, I have held multiple after-school teaching positions where I worked with children ranging from preschool age through middle school, supporting their growth through educational and enrichment activities. I also owned and operated a princess party company, where I spent weekends creating magical experiences for children while ensuring every event was safe, interactive, and engaging. My experience has taught me how to connect with children of different ages and personalities, maintain a safe and nurturing environment, and keep kids entertained through creative activities, games, crafts, music, and imaginative play. I am reliable, patient, and dedicated to making every child feel valued, supported, and excited to learn and have fun. I also have a passion for dogs and raised my goldendoodle in the city since he was 10 weeks old. I have experience dog walking and dog sitting!
