ABOUT OUR FAMILY BUSINESS
In the heart of Southern Illinois, the Payne family legacy thrives, embodied by 618 Pet Sitting. Anchored by James
Payne, a devoted father to Brett, Brad, and Beth, this isn't just a business; it's a testament to familial bonds, resilience,
and enduring love.
Having witnessed the beauty of family growing, with children, their wives, and the next generation coming together, the
Payne family embarked on this venture not just to serve the local community but for a cause deeply personal. This
endeavor has dual purposes: to care for our dear father, James, and to commemorate the life and spirit of our beloved
mother, Marlyn Payne.
Marlyn, with her radiant love, cherished every moment with Ollie, the family dog. With her passing, Ollie has become
James's unwavering companion, filling days with joy and solace. Inspired by this profound bond, James, with Ollie by
his side, leads our pet services. The Payne ethos is simple: care for every pet as though they were family. This ethos is
rooted in the values James and Marlyn nurtured in their home – unconditional love, care, and respect.
At 618 Pet Sitting, we bring that very essence of the Payne family to your home. Every pet, every service, is delivered
with the warmth and dedication James and Marlyn always stood for.
Join us in this beautiful journey where pets aren't just cared for; they're celebrated and loved, much like the way Marlyn
and James have loved all those in their lives.

OUR APPROACH
In the event of a pet emergency, rest assured that our immediate priority is contacting you. Your pet sitter from 618 Pet Sitting will swiftly transport your furry friend to their regular vet, keeping you updated en route. Should emergencies occur outside standard hours, we'll promptly head to the Emergency Vet, acting in line with your provided instructions.
For every home visit, our sitters offer detailed report cards outlining the day's events. These cards will share insights
into our arrival time, feeding schedules, your pet's demeanor, and other household tasks we managed – like plant watering or cleaning after your pet. These daily records not only keep you informed but also verify our commitment to your pet's well-being.
We offer versatile payment methods including cash, check, money order, and credit cards. Checks and money orders should be addressed to "618 Pet Sitting".
Accuracy in our service is paramount. All details gathered during our in-home consultation are meticulously logged into our database. This ensures your sitter is always informed and updated about your pet's needs. We urge you to share comprehensive information and notify us of any changes.
Life is unpredictable, and travel plans might change – flight delays, traffic jams, etc. If your return is impacted, just
reach out. We'll adjust our schedules, ensuring uninterrupted care for your pets.
For convenience and efficiency in ongoing and future services, your sitter will, unless specified otherwise, safely keep
your house keys and security codes. This also aids in emergencies, guaranteeing access when needed. Post-
consultation key pickups or deliveries incur a nominal $15 charge.
