Pet Sitter in North Vancouver, British Columbia

I am looking for work as a home/pet/or childcare provider. I have a great deal of experience working with children, with animals, with housekeeping, cooking and general home management. You could say I am a pro in the area of domestic engineering. I enjoy being with children, animals as well as caring for the home environment. I like variety and this is why I’m choosing this type of work. It allows me to participate in an assortment of tasks, while offering a sense of pride in what I do. I am an amazing organizer, a terrific listener, naturally playful, fun loving, patient, kind, assertive, and generally know what needs to get done. As someone who supports the idea of homemaking as a valid career, I’ve decided that even though I have a BA, this is the kind of work I like to do because it is straightforward and back to basics. As an aspiring artist and writer my income tends to be somewhat unreliable so I prefer something that I am good at and offers a regular hourly wage. Because of my commitment to my art, I choose to work part time hours. I would be delighted to find the right fit with a family or individual that lives somewhat near to my home in North Vancouver.
