I will give your kids a fun and memorable time without having to make a dent in the bank.

I have two younger siblings and my favorite thing when they were little was playing make-believe with them. Little kids have such a vibrant imagination, and so do I. Child care should be easily affordable to everyone, that's why I will never bring my prices up. Child care should also be a positive experience, that is why I always bring engaging and educational activities when watching little kids. That way they can have a fun time while also learning something like a new animal or a sweet moral.

Looking for babysitting and pet sitting services over the summer!

Hello!! My name is Maya, and I'm going into my junior year in high school. I come from a large family and I've always been responsible of my little siblings which overtime has helped me learn and care for them while keeping them steady throughout the day. I've also owned many animals throughout my life, and I currently have 3 cats of different ages. I've loved spending time with kids and animals for the longest time. I find myself to be really outgoing which makes me good with kids and animals. I'm starting to find job opportunities in order to make myself more responsible with time and to begin making my own money. I'm very flexible with times and prices. Thank you!

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Pet Daycare Provider

Follow these handy tips for hiring a private pet daycare provider so your furry friend gets the best care while you’re away.

1. Check Experience with Your Pet Type

Ask about their background caring for dogs, cats, or other pets. Make sure they understand breed-specific needs, temperaments, and behaviors.

2. Verify Training & Certifications

Look for pet CPR/first aid certification, animal handling training, or professional memberships in pet care associations.

3. Tour the Facility or Home

Visit the daycare space to check for cleanliness, safety measures, secure fencing, and pet-friendly areas.

4. Ask About Daily Routine

Find out what a typical day looks like—exercise, playtime, feeding, rest, and socialization opportunities.

5. Understand Supervision Levels

Confirm how many pets they care for at once and whether constant supervision is provided, especially during group play.

6. Review Health & Safety Policies

Ask about vaccination requirements, flea/tick prevention, emergency plans, and how illnesses or injuries are handled.

7. Check References & Reviews

Speak with past or current clients, and ask for customer reviews to ensure reliability and positive experiences.

8. Clarify Communication

Ask how they’ll keep you updated—daily texts, photos, or reports—so you know your pet is happy and safe.

9. Discuss Rates & Inclusions

Make sure you understand the cost, what’s included (walks, grooming, food), and if there are extra fees for late pickup or special care.

10. Do a Trial Day

Start with a short daycare session to see how your pet adjusts, and gauge the provider’s attentiveness and professionalism.
