    try the classifieds instead of job websites then. or put up notices in Park'n'Shop and Wellcome, they have noticeboards that you can use for free. also the pets forum on here have a couple of people looking for a dog walker.

    for babysitting you either need to try with an agency which can provide you to families, or just ask around people you know. the parents have to trust you. if you're childcaring for infants, then you really need to know what you're doing - how to change a diaper, how to make the milk, how to burp the baby, figure out why it's crying, what to do if the baby starts choking, what to do with the baby if you need to go to the loo, etc. etc.

    if you're babysitting older kids, you have to get along well with children because they'll just tell their mum or dad they don't like you and you're out of a job.
