Safety, trust & environment

I am a firm believer that pets deserve all the love in the world. I pride myself on how much time and attention I pour into my rescue pup and I think it’s important that the same standard applies for any clients animals I have the pleasure of taking care of. Being a rescue pup, my fur baby has a lot of special quirks that have taken time to learn and address accordingly to give her the best life possible. I believe each animal deserves the same attention.

Information Payton B. would like to know about your pet

I feel comfortable taking care of almost all animals but if your animal has any special needs or quirks I would love to be made aware before hand so I can be as accommodating to you and your animal as possible!

A typical day

A typical day for me starts around 6-6:30am. I usually like to take pups on a long walk in the morning before the air and ground get a little too hot. Then breakfast time!! If the pets are good with other dogs I love going to dog parks or dog beaches when I have the time, but also love to let them play outside. Don’t forget about cuddles and all the pets they want.

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up with pets my whole life. From a young age my parents emphasized the importance of properly caring for and loving all the animals I had, and trust me we have had our fair share! I’ve had cats and dogs, birds, fish, and frogs… and even a bearded dragon! Now it’s a little more lowkey as my boyfriend and I live with our sweet 2 year old rescue pup named Koda. Nothing brings me as much happiness as caring for and spoiling my fur baby (hopefully another fur baby soon) and I would love to help do the same for your pets as well!

Payton did a great job with my 17 1/2 year old Bella. I know Bella needed extra care, and glad Payton was there for her.

Payton was wonderful to work with. She was friendly, easygoing, and took amazing care of my senior dog. She was gentle and patient with him, and made sure he stayed comfortable the entire time I was away. I forgot to give him his medication before leaving, and Payton handled it without hesitation. She even came by a few days beforehand for a meet-and-greet, which really helped my dog feel more relaxed and familiar with her. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Highly recommended!

Payton is amazing, she was very punctual and she went above and beyond, also my dog is not an easy breed or dog and she was able to handle him with not problem while we were out of town, I absolutely recommend her
