Hi there! My name is Calla and I have been babysitting, nannying, and pet/house sitting since I was 12. I enjoy making kiddos laugh, *I believe it can be quite contagious* playing games and sports, reading with them, making arts and crafts etc. My mother is a grade school teacher and has been since I was about 8 years old, so I grew up with the positive influence of child care and education. I am also comfortable with kiddos that may have special needs or require more intense care. I am CPR certified and I have experience volunteering with AmeriCorps and ReadingCorps and I was a T.A. in Carbondale, CO for Summit54 summer school. Kids make me smile and I enjoy their company, I want to help make a positive impression on their lives while you may not be able to be home with them!

Calla has been walking our two small dogs for a few weeks now and we couldn't be happier! Scheduling a meet and greet with her was super easy and she was able to start walking for us right away, which was such a huge help. She is always very responsive, gives us updates on our pups and she is wonderful with them. We're lucky to have her!

I recently had Calla watch my dog (large breed) while I was out of town. It was the first time anyone outside of my family stayed with my dog and it couldn't have gone better. Calla provided updates and photos while I was away and I could tell my pup was definitely relaxed and happy around her. I would recommend her for your pet sitting needs!
