Payton can care for
Availability
I am currently working part time as a nanny, I work 2 days a week with extremely short hours, so it does not conflict with pet sitting. As well as if the owners are okay with it sometimes me and the 6 year old girl will walk the dogs together.

About Payton P.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet I care for. At your home, I follow your routines and rules to ensure your pet feels secure and relaxed. At my home, pets have a quiet, pet-friendly space to eat, rest, and play. I supervise all interactions, make sure pets are hydrated and exercised, and provide plenty of love and attention. Safety and trust are my top priorities, and I always keep owners updated with messages and photos so they feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for.
Information Payton P. would like to know about your pet
The main focus for me is to know the dogs usual routines, so I can make sure I can stick with them. I would also love and always appreciate knowing if your animal experiences any special behavior or just usual behavior (if they get axiety, eating habits, medications, interactions with other dogs, etc). It’s also helpful to know their temperament, energy level, training cues, and how they interact with other people. Any fears, triggers, or special preferences (like favorite toys or walking habits) are great to share so I can provide the best and safest care possible
A typical day
A typical day with the dogs I watch starts with going out to go to the bathroom, eating, then a morning walk to keep your pet stimulated and getting the energy out. Sometimes in the mornings depending on the dog wd do a longer walk or even just a smell walk. I love going to the ocean, beaches, parks, and just around the owners neighborhood. I always like to also make sure dogs routines stay the same through out my stay because I understand how a huge change can cause anxiety and unusual behavior for animals. I give pets lots of rest time, attention, and enrichment.

Pet care experience
I'm an animal lover who misses my own dogs and cats at home! I’ve cared for many different pets, including large dogs like Labradoodles, and have watched multiple pets at once many times, so I know how to build trust and routines. I have excellent references and experience providing walks, baths, and all the daily care pets need. I’m flexible and can watch pets in your home, at mine, or provide walks and drop-in visits. I am a nanny (check my schedule), so I’m extremely reliable and trustworthy. I love going on walks, giving pets attention, and keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they feel comfortable while away. Your pet’s happiness and care are my top priority!
Reviews
Payton watched my labradoodle for a week and i was very pleasantly surprised to find my sweet baby happy as can be when i came home. she has had some troubles with other pet sitters in the passed, but payton sent me photos, asked questions when needed, and went above and beyond. i would definitely recommend and hire her again
Payton recently cared for my 2 dogs and home for a week. She spent about an hour with me before in order to learn exactly the way I wanted everything to be. Payton sent me emails confirming both initial appointments (the meet & greet, and the training session) and showed up on time. She also confirmed the start date of her job. Payton communicated any concerns/questions and sent me a picture of the dogs on their walk. We returned home to find our dogs happy and calm, and the house was clean. I highly recommend her.
