About the job

She can shower, eat, & use the bathroom independently. We pick out her clothes & cook her meals- she's limited on what she'll eat. She's friendly but frequent redirection is often needed. We would like someone who can commit to one-two consistent days per week, but open availability for additional days and possible weekend evenings is preferred. She basically needs a friend to keep her busy and supervise her so she is never alone. A typical day includes eating meals, going for a walk, buying groceries, and watching TV. She likes watching game shows, looking at pictures, shopping, & helping with baking. Looking for someone who can distract or redirect- she tends to ask to go home or to work. Will need assistance with stairs/steps when applicable. Must have valid drivers license as she is unable to drive. We have a small, sweet dog.
