Episode 156. Revamp Your Pet Sitting Business – Or Other Pet Biz

Author: Kristin Morrison | Pet Business Coach | Pet Sitting, Dog Walking and Dog Training Business Tips February 4, 2025 Duration: 0:00

Brooke is a long-time pet business owner who has a large pet sitting and dog walking business in Los Angeles.

She no longer does the pet sitting and dog walking visits herself; she has a large team of staff to help her.

One of the challenges Brooke is currently struggling with is how to get new clients. She used to get a lot of new client requests but lately she hardly gets any inquiries from new clients. Understandably this is causing her stress and strain!

In this episode she will learn how to revamp her marketing including how to implement some low-cost and no-cost marketing methods to get new clients. She’ll also learn some actions she needs to take to ensure she doesn’t get into this feast or famine mode again in the future.
