    Episode 155. Set Boundaries in Your Pet Business

    Luis has been in business for 12 years in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. He has a thriving dog walking business. Lately his clients have been using his pet service as more of a ‘ride share app” (using his services periodically instead of consistently) which has made planning very difficult because his clients aren’t being consistent and scheduling regular, ongoing service like they used to do. Many have also been requesting his service during his off hours (early in the morning and late at night) which is creating a lot of stress for him and his team. He wants to provide an easeful experience for his clients but not if it continues to cause stress the way it has been lately. If you are struggling with setting boundaries with your clients, you won’t want to miss this episode!

    Episode 153: Get Your Mind and Business Pointed in the Right Direction

    Tonya has owned her pet sitting, dog boarding and dog walking business for over 10 years. She’s struggling with the pet industry competition in her area, especially the large amount of Rover pet sitters, hobby and neighborhood dog walkers and pet care providers. Tonya is understandably feeling confused and upset because the people reaching out to her for pet services lately aren’t willing to pay her professional pet sitter prices. They seem interested at first but then when she quotes her rate, they often don’t want to schedule services. This is causing Tonya to feel unsure about what to do to get clients. She doesn’t want to lower her rates; ideally, she wants to attract the right clients willing to pay her rates. She’s stuck and needs help!

    Episode 151: Hiring Staff and Converting ICs into Employees

    Maria has owned her pet business for many years. She had a business partner, but she recently bought her partner’s portion of the business, so the business is all hers now. For the last several years, Maria has been managing her business remotely because she’s living in a different state than her service-based business is located. She has a lot of staff members who are ICs, and she needs to convert those ICs to employees. Join Maria and I as we discuss how best to convert her ICs into employees, and we explore ways to turn her already very successful pet business into an even better business!

    Episode 150: “My 50 Clients Are Like Having 50 Bosses!”

    Heather wants to have more time with her kids and herself. She bought a pet sitting business and now that’s she’s been running it for a while, she wants to change some fundamental ways she’s currently running it. Like a lot of pet business owners (especially newer pet business owners), Heather is trying to being too many things and doing too much for many of her clients which is causing her to feel burned out and stuck in a rut. She wants to create more of a “plug-and-play” or turnkey business. Taking on new overnight pet sitting clients is often anxiety-producing for Heather because it’s such an intimate experience with her staff in the client’s home, sleeping in their bed, etc. and she never knows how it’s going to turn out. She is also feeling that her many clients have become her bosses which is leading her to feel like she has 50 bosses. Also, holidays feel very overwhelming for her because she gets so many potential clients reaching out desperate for care and they may only use her company for that one holiday which feels like a lot of work for a small amount of money.
