Pet care experience

Thank you for considering me for your pet walking, home drop-in, and pet sitting needs! With a passion for pets and years of experience, I'm dedicated to providing top-notch care that goes above and beyond for your furry family members. What sets me apart is my commitment to crafting tailored adventures for your beloved companions. As a devoted pet owner myself, with five dogs and a cat, I intimately understand the unique needs and quirks of our furry friends. Whether it's a leisurely stroll close to home or an exploration of new places, each outing is meticulously designed to be both enjoyable and enriching for your pets. Plus, as a dog walker with a love for discovering new places, you can trust that every adventure will be an exciting experience for your furry pals! I enjoy working with animals on manners and tricks during visits, providing enrichment and mental stimulation tailored to each pet's personality. This ensures that not only are they physically exercised, but their minds are kept sharp and engaged. With the option for pack walks or individual walks, you have the flexibility to choose what best suits your pet's preferences and needs. Drawing from my experience in pet sitting and dog walking, I will adapt visits to your pets' personalities and energy levels, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience for them. During home drop-ins, I prioritize your pet's well-being, providing care and companionship. From administering medications with precision to lavishing attention on your furry family members, rest assured they will receive nothing less than personalized, loving care that surpasses your expectations. Your pets are not just pets; they're family. And with me, they'll be treated as such. I can't wait to meet and pamper your furry companions! 🐾🐶🐱

Paxton is really the greatest dog sitter. We did a meet and greet beforehand and it was obvious Paxton loves all of the animals she cares for. She was great with my puppy Jet lots of walks, snuggles, and play time. She knew how to handle introductions between dogs and different play styles. Received texts and lots of pics/videos throughout his stay. Thanks for taking great care of Jet.

Paxton is absolutely amazing with my pets and loves every animal she meets. She knows how to befriend any and every dog and even my dog that hates strangers in the house adores her. Paxton will love your pets almost as much and you do and I cannot recommend her enough!!

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in my client's home or out on walks, I prioritize their safety, well-being, and happiness. During home visits, I follow any specific instructions provided by the client regarding feeding, medication, and routines. I engage with the pets through play, cuddle time, and companionship, ensuring they feel loved and comfortable in their familiar environment. On walks, I pay close attention to each pet's needs and preferences. I tailor the walk to their energy level, allowing for a leisurely stroll or an active adventure, depending on what they enjoy. Safety is always paramount, so I keep a watchful eye on their surroundings and ensure they're leashed securely. Additionally, I provide mental stimulation by incorporating training exercises, interactive games, or simply allowing them to explore and sniff to their heart's content. Overall, whether in the client's home or out on a walk, my focus is on providing attentive and compassionate care that enriches the lives of the pets under my supervision.

Information Paxton H. would like to know about your pet

Knowing important details about your pets ahead of time is crucial for providing the best care possible. Here are some key things I like to know before caring for your pets: Health Information: Any medical conditions, allergies, or medications the pet requires. This helps ensure their health needs are met properly. Behavioral Traits: Information about your pet's temperament, likes, dislikes, and any specific behaviors to be aware of (such as fear of loud noises, separation anxiety, reactivity to other dogs). Understanding their personality helps me tailor my care approach to best suit their needs. Routine: Knowing their daily routine, including feeding schedule, exercise preferences, and any specific rituals or habits they have. Maintaining consistency in their routine helps reduce stress and keeps them comfortable. Emergency Contacts: Contact information for the pet's veterinarian and any other emergency contacts. This ensures quick access to assistance in case of any unexpected situations. Favorite Toys/Treats: Knowing their favorite toys and treats helps me bond with the pet and provides opportunities for enrichment and enjoyment during our time together. By gathering this information ahead of time, I can ensure a smooth and seamless experience for both the pet and their owner, and provide the best possible care tailored to their individual needs.

A typical day

When caring for and walking pets, I prioritize fun and engaging activities to keep them happy and entertained. Some of the activities I'll enjoy with your pets include: Stimulating Walks: Exploring new routes, sniffing out interesting scents, and enjoying the great outdoors together. Interactive Play Sessions: Whether it's a game of fetch, tug-of-war, or chasing bubbles, interactive play helps keep pets active and mentally stimulated. Training Exercises: Working on basic obedience commands or teaching fun tricks like "roll over" or "high five" to keep their minds sharp and strengthen our bond. Enrichment Activities: Engaging in puzzle toys, treat-dispensing games, or scent-tracking exercises to provide mental stimulation and challenge their problem-solving skills. Water Adventures: If your pet enjoys water, we can incorporate water play into our walks, such as splashing in shallow streams or playing with water toys on hot days. Relaxation Time: Taking breaks for some quiet cuddle sessions or gentle grooming to help them unwind and feel loved. By incorporating a variety of these activities into our time together, I ensure that your pets have a fulfilling and enjoyable experience, both during walks and while in my care.
