List next had a role in the romantic comedy film Something Borrowed in 2011, which was received negatively. That same year, List began her work on Disney Channel, and was cast as Emma Ross, the eldest of four affluent children, on the Disney Channel series Jessie alongside Debby Ryan and her Diary of a Wimpy Kid co-star Karan Brar.

Namefellow
List shares the same name with another fellow actress, Peyton List (born 1986). The younger List was interviewed by Access Hollywood, saying she uses Peyton R. List to avoid confusion. Union SAG-AFTRA‘s policy avoids living actors with the same name; this instance went unnoticed.
Once, the two young actresses appeared in the same scene when they both appeared on As the World Turns. Years later, this Peyton List cited confusion when both were staying at the same hotel. They received each other’s daily call sheets and voicemails messages.
Entertainment industry news website IndieWire noted the confusion appeared on Wikipedia, where both actresses’ articles began with exactly the same sentence, “Peyton List is an American actress and model.”
Both actresses also voiced characters in the animated movie Batman: Hush, the younger as Batgirl and the older as Poison Ivy.

Quotes
It’s cool to have a response where you feel like what you’re enjoying and experiencing, the audience is doing that, too. They get it and they’re in tune with it.
Being at the set sometimes you feel like it’s going a certain way and you feel really good about something and then it doesn’t turn out to be the way you thought it was.
