Hi there! My name is Eliza Brooks and I am an enthusiastic pet sitter and babysitter! Working with both kids and animals has brought so much joy to my life and even inspired my career choice as a veterinarian! I am attending college this fall at either Meredith College or Virginia Tech for animal science. I have babysat for approximately three years with children aged 8 months to 12 years. I am Red Cross certified through their babysitter program and knowledgeable about food preparation and special diets/needs through past employment. In addition to my babysitting experience, I have had the privilege to be an assistant barn manager and farm hand at a Thoroughbred breeding facility this past year. Whether it was simple barn chores, training young horses, or spending the night to monitor the farm, I thoroughly enjoyed my job and have learned so much! Additionally I have pet sat Read more dogs (both large and small), cats, reptiles (specifically a bearded dragon), and fish! If you have any questions about me, my past employers, or experience please don't hesitate to reach out! Same goes for individual inquiries about your animal or child! As a student, I am not available from 8am-3pm but my weekends and afternoons/evenings are available.
