Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable, Attentive Pet & Home Care
Hello, my name is Payton - I'm a lifelong animal lover based in Austin, Texas. Over the past 25+ years, I've had the opportunity to work with 150+ pets of various breeds & needs. I’ve cared for puppies & kittens, seniors, and hospice/special-needs animals too. Whether your pet needs long adventure walks, short strolls, fetch runs, or cozy snuggles on the couch - I provide care that is catered to their unique preferences, needs, & routine. I have experience administering medications for epilepsy, GI & kidney conditions, eye diseases, allergies, joint issues, as well as daily vitamins. When you entrust your pets to me, you can rest assured that they’ll be treated as if they’re my own.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I aim to maintain the safety & happiness of both your pet(s) & home, and I strive to keep you well-informed via text/photo updates during both house sits and dog walks/drop-in visits alike. Regarding house sits - I am always cognizant of time away from home, and will communicate if circumstance would require me to be away from the home for an extended period of time (6-8 hrs, or less depending on the pet).

Schedule
I'm a project manager with a hybrid work schedule; often WFH, with a few standing meetings between the hours of 9:30am-3pm M-F. I enjoy sprinkling dog walks into my week for a chance to get some sun & fresh air with a companion I am sure to get along well with.
