Fort Wayne Lover of All Animals!

Pet care experience

I am an avid animal lover and find joy in spending time with animals of all kinds, from cats and dogs to birds and farm animals! I am a vegetarian and love forming connections with pets and animals. My very first paycheck earned was after cat sitting for my neighbor at 10 years old. Since then I have worked over night as a house sitter/pet sitter, drop-in pet feeder, and have raised and litter box trained my own three cats since they were just a few weeks/months old. I am capable of walking dogs in all weather, playing with and interacting with animals, and cleaning up after the messes they can make. I utilize open communication with all pet families and owners. One thing that sets me apart from other sitters is that I have a very caring nature and have worked full time as a nanny for young children and babies since 2019. Transparent communication and love are my specialities!

Communicated perfectly, stayed later when I was running late and followed all instructions. Thanks!

Payton watched our two cats for us while on vacation for a little over a week. She spent more than the expected amount of time with them and sent us many lovely photos throughout our vacation. Our mechanical litter box had broke while we were gone and she problem-solved on how to clean the litter, even when we told her she didn’t have to. She read our multiple pages of instructions on how to care for the cats without any fuss and seemed to understand how important our cats are to us!
