Are you searching for a reliable and nurturing babysitter or pet sitter? Look no further! With over a year of experience caring for babys, toddlers, and young children, I know how to create a safe, fun, and engaging environment for all ages of kids.
My passion for animals started at a young age, and I’ve been a dedicated pet owner and caretaker since I was 9. Alongside my own beloved dog and two cats, I have experience with a variety of pets, including ferrets, bunnies, hamsters, and turtles.
Whether it's storytime filled with imagination, engaging arts and crafts, or ensuring your pets receive all the love and attention they deserve, I’m here to make sure your kids and/or pets are happy and cared for while you're away!
I am 17 years old, I do have my own car. I would rather not go out unless it is a short distance due to the miles being able to be able to drive each day.
I can travel to neighboring suburbs/towns of O'Fallon for work.
