I'm looking for a sitter for my autistic son every other Saturday from 12:30 PM to 9:30 PM. You should be comfortable around pets, as we have 2 german shepherds. My son is nonverbal and functions at a much lower level than his chronologial age. He is very sweet and loves attention from new people. He likes music, going to the park, and eating. He needs his sitter to play with him if he wants to play or just supervise him if he wants to do something on his own. He needs someone to prepare meals and snacks for him and supervise him during bathtime.
