Flexible sitter that loves all pets

Hello, my name is Payton! I am currently living in Melbourne, Florida, and I have a love for dogs of all breeds! I began pet sitting as a child, and grew up with many animals(dogs, horses, etc). I have been very active with rescue and fostering, and all breeds are welcome in my home. I have experience with special needs animals and also have experience administering medication to pets. I love to practice photography, and would love to take your furry friends out on a trail and take some photos of them for you while you are away. I am very active, but my lil dog isn’t so much, so having an active dog by my side would always be welcomed company. :) I would love to welcome your furry friend into my life however needed. I have a very flexible schedule, so I can tailor to most needs of dog owners. Be sure to let me know if you would like me to work on any tricks with your dog/dogs, I enjoy teaching tricks and mild training. As previously stated, I have a pup of my own, so I would love to be able to provide a lil companionship for our dogs to meet and socialize. I am available for dog/house sitting, doggy daycare, and dog walking. I hope to meet you and your loved animals soon, and hope that I can help you when you need. Thank you! :)

Absolutely great!! Was so sweet with my pup and even down to help taking care of a small cut she had, felt very comfortable leaving her with Payton and would definitely choose her again!

Payton has been amazing, she was super sweet with my dog and always punctual. I have also been changing the walking schedule a couple of times and she has been very flexible, which I really appreciated. I would definitely contact her again to watch Teddy!

Payton is an absolute dream! Such a beautiful soul ? She took such good care of Twix and kept me well informed. I received daily pictures and it made me feel comfortable. I highly recommend Payton if you're looking for a kind sitter for your fur baby.

I cannot say enough positive things about Payton! I was extremely apprehensive about leaving my Khaleesi because we hadn't been separated for more than a few hours since the day I got her, and now I was leaving for 5 days! So anxiety levels were through the roof! Payton immediately assuaged any fears I had from the moment we met, and Khaleesi took to her straight away! She sent me pictures and updates multiple times a day just to keep my mind at ease and let me know my big baby girl was being taken good care of! I will definitely use her ANYTIME I have to go anywhere again!

Pets

A typical day

I go to parks, nature trails and long leisurely walks daily, so I would love to have a furry friend to keep me company on my daily routines! I love to do agility and dog training, and could help work on some new skills/tricks for your pup as well. Lastly, I also dabble in photography, so if anybody would be interested in me doing a pet-shoot, I would be more than happy to!
