Experienced Babysitter & Pet Sitter

Kia ora, I’m Saint! I am from Christchurch New Zealand and offers babysitting, pet sitting, and dog walking services and genuinely enjoy caring for both children and animals. I have completed the Plunket Babysitting Course and hold a certificate, so safety, routines, and age-appropriate care are always a priority for me.

I currently babysit for a local family and also work as a caregiver for a local elderly person, which has helped me develop strong responsibility, patience, and reliability. I’m comfortable caring for children of different ages and needs, and I’m happy to help with play, routines, light tidying, or keeping kids engaged and safe.

I’m also confident with pets, including dog walking and general pet care, and treat every home and family with respect. I can provide references from both of my current, reliable employers on request.

Please feel free to message me for a chat about what you’re looking for — I’d love to see how I can help!!
