Dog Sitting Opportunity for a week (Medford, MA)
Seeking dog sitting services for our sweet pup, Ava, while we are away from April 13th-21st. Ava is a 5 year old black lab mix who loves going for walks around the neighborhood, meeting new people, and cuddling up with those around her. She’s very food driven, fully house trained, and loves playing with her toys. Her dislikes include the rain and skateboards.
Ava’s day usually consists of breakfast around 7am, a 30ish min walk, then she generally hangs out until the afternoon where she has a quick bathroom break outside. She has “snack” at 4pm followed by another 30ish min walk. She’ll eat dinner around 6pm, and do one more trip outside before bed around 9pm.
We are offering $80/day. You can either stay with her at our place in Medford, or have her at your place if easier/permitted (provided there aren’t other animals or small children around). We can provide drop off and pick up in that case. Please email Caitlin Kennedy if you are interested at Kennedy.caitlin62@gmail.com

Babysitting two twins (Boston, MA)
A family is looking for a graduate student who is interested in doing some babysitting for two twins who are both diagnosed with ASD. Parents are a bit overwhelmed and hoping to find some babysitters for them to get a minute for themselves. Parents primary language is Mandarin, but their English is totally fluent and they can switch between them without difficulty so language needs aren’t a factor. For the weekends, it would only be for 1-2 hours, similar for the weekdays from 4-7pm.
