About Maryellen Payton

Hello! My name is MaryEllen, but I go by Emmi for short. I've been around various types of pets and animals my entire life, and helping pet owners and their furry, fuzzy, or scaly friends for 3 years! In my home life, I've never spent any time without having at least one set of furry paws and cheerful barks roaming the halls. Beyond dogs, I grew up with fish, hermit crabs, and jumping spiders! I happened to love animals so much growing up, I devoted my time and educational efforts to obtain a bachelors of science in marine biology. In pet sitting experience, I've primarily cared for dogs of all ages, cats, and fish, but am always more than willing to learn about your pets and their unique needs, whatever they might be!
