Penni’s Bio

Hi! My name is Penni and I am a UT graduate. I work a full-time job with the state but I have horses and they are very expensive. I gave horseback riding lessons and trail rides for 10 years and my horses got older and most of them passed away. I have two horses left and I babysit for extra money. I would like to be of assistance to older folks who need a helping hand. I'd love to hear from you. Thank you.

A few weeks ago we had the pleasure of Penni watching our kids. She was willing & able to come though last minute for us when our other sitter had to cancel. Penni was on time, & was immediately great with the kids & dog. Throughout the night Penni was always communicative & let us know how the girls were doing. We look forward to having Penni back again sometime soon.

Penni was absolutely amazing with both of our very ADHD and sensory processing disorder kiddos. She was warm and personable, brought games, and helped the kids feel at ease so that we could go out for a date night. This was their first formal sitter and everything went as planned. She gave us updates throughout the evening and the kids had a great time.
Penni is a gem of a person and we’re so grateful to have found her.
