I am offering to look after most animals whether it is a dog, cat or reptile or anything else
Caitlin M
I am 17 and capable of looking after 0 to 10 year old children. I have experience due to looking after younger sibling and cousins as well as the children of close family friends. I can cook, clean, change nappies and follow schedules when in place. I can be strict when necessary and have no allergies to pets. However I am afraid of big spiders and snakes. I have a reptile(bearded dragon called Everest) and I am happy to stay as late as you need. I can work with children with special needs.
