Patient, Safe, Structured, Fun, Reliable, and Rule-Following Neighborhood Caregiver for your Kids and Pets!

Hi neighbors! I’m Cheyanne (but call me Cae), a patient and energetic 15-year-old high school student, I am a sophomore, offering dedicated babysitting and pet-sitting services right here at my home. I am trying to build a career in being a babysitter to help children, later on in life I want to be a highschool teacher or possibly a elemntary school teacher.

As an IEP student, my absolute biggest superpower is following rules, instructions, and schedules exactly as they are written. I know how important routines are, and I take pride in keeping things organized, calm, and structured.

Our home is completely smoke-free and features a secure, fully fenced backyard, providing the perfect safe zone for outdoor games or pet exercise. Whether you need a trusted supervisor for your child's playtime or a detailed schedule tracker for your pet's feeding and walking routines, I am here to help!

Contact me if you need help on weekends or after school! I can work full-time during summer vacation or holiday vacations. I can only work part-time when school starts but will be free on weekends anytime, I can work during school times from 3pm to 9pm and during the summertime from 9:40am to 9pm. I do allow extra payments like bonuses or extra money, or tips. I do work $25 an hour. Your pet must be a well trained and respectful dog and very friendly and not aggressive for when walking. Thank you and I am looking forward to meeting your pets and children.

Also parents must provide meals, diapers, extra clothes, and bottles if they still use bottles. But I do give snacks to children but parents must provide the dinner and I will provide lunch and breakfast. If your child has allergies let me know.. My school year starts September 1st and my summer vacation starts June 17th. I will let you know any updates 2 weeks early to let you know when I have a week vacation or a holiday vacation or a day off. Thank you.!

In addition to this experience, I have taught dance to children aged 3–12 for three years and have been involved with Kids Yoga throughout my life, assisting and co-teaching yoga classes alongside my mother. I have also babysat for many family members!

Top 10 Tips For Hiring A Pet Sitter

Follow these handy tips for hiring a pet sitter to ensure your furry family members are safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away.

1. Check Experience

Ask how long they’ve been pet sitting and what types of pets they’ve cared for. Experience with your specific type or breed is a big plus.

2. Verify Credentials

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

3. Ask for References

Speak with past clients to confirm reliability, trustworthiness, and quality of care.

4. Meet in Person

Schedule a meet-and-greet to see how your pet reacts to the sitter and ensure a comfortable connection.

5. Discuss Duties Clearly

Define whether they’ll walk, feed, administer medication, groom, or provide other services. Be specific about expectations.

6. Check Availability

Ensure the sitter can meet your schedule, including holidays, weekends, or overnight needs.

7. Understand Rates & Payment

Clarify fees, overtime charges, and any additional costs (like travel, supplies, or emergency care).

8. Review Emergency Plans

Ask how they handle medical issues, accidents, or other emergencies, including access to your vet.

9. Communication Style

Confirm how often and in what form they’ll provide updates—texts, photos, or reports.

10. Start with a Trial

Consider a short test visit or day before leaving for an extended period to see how your pet responds and assess the sitter’s reliability.
