Why Listen to Pet Sitter Confessional?
The pet care industry is changing—fast. Prices, platforms, professionalism, and expectations are all shifting, and pet sitters and dog walkers are feeling the pressure. Pet Sitter Confessional exists to help you make sense of it all.
We’ve spent over a decade building and running a multi-employee pet care business, interviewing industry leaders, studying trends, and learning firsthand what works—and what doesn’t. Our goal is to bring you actionable insight, honest conversations, and real-world clarity so you can build a sustainable, confident, and resilient business.
Are we the experts in everything? No—and that’s intentional.
That’s why we feature voices from across the industry: trainers, behaviorists, business owners, founders, platform leaders, veterinarians, coaches, analysts, and—most importantly—pet sitters like you.
Every story adds depth. Every perspective strengthens the community. Every conversation helps us all grow.
Pet Sitter Confessional isn’t just a podcast. It’s a place where the future of pet care is explored, understood, and shared—together.
