Passionate Pet Lover & Childcare Provider | Dogs, Small Pets & Kids Welcome!
Hi! I'm a responsible and energetic 15-year-old who absolutely loves caring for kids and pets. With years of experience watching children of all ages and hands-on care for my own 2 dogs, 2 birds, and 1 bunny, I know how to keep little ones (and furry ones!) happy, safe, and entertained. I'm a confident cook who enjoys preparing simple, nutritious meals and snacks, and I'm an active church volunteer who brings patience, reliability, and a positive attitude to every job. I also run my own small business, which has taught me strong responsibility and dedication.

Looking forward to meeting you and your loved ones!
