Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I currently have two inside cats currently. We keep things VERY neat and cleanly. We have one cat that has a feeding schedule and the other one grazes. The cat boxes are cleaned once ever 1-2 days. We care for are pets as much as we possibly can, provide many toys, and make sure they get play time daily.

Paityn was excellent! She provided consistent updates on our cats and made sure they had everything they needed.

Paityn is a life saver. I had hired 2 dog walkers for my two dogs. When the 2nd person canceled last minute, Paityn saved the day. She agreed to walk both dogs separately as well as take care of my cat. My husband said both dogs were excited to see her each visit. I will definitely be using Paityn again.

Dog Walking • May 02, 2026

I hired Paityn to walk my 7 yr old dog when I left town on a girls trip. I appreciate that she let my dog set the pace and stopped to let her roll in the grass. My husband told me that my dog was super happy to see Paityn each time which tells me that Kayla gives her approval too.

We just LOVE Paityn!!! She takes thoughtful care of all of us— fur babies and anxious fur parents. She is a great communicator and can be flexible if trip plans go wrong (eg extra nights in hospital). I would love to be greedy and keep her all to myself but she’s too good not to share. Thank you Paityn 💕❣️

Schedule

I lost my job in March 2024 due to a mass lay off and the job market has been difficult to say the least. I have decided to go back to school and get my bachelors online. This job works perfect for me for the time being due to these factors. I have pet sit for various people in my past, and I have loved continuing to make a career out of this.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs

Paityn can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
I will need to know a schedule for your pet, a list of all of their needs and medications, and your vets name and number in case of an emergency and I cannot get a hold of you.
