Pet Sitter Confessional - 671: The Power of Calm: Staying Grounded in Pet Care and Life with...

Описание: What does it take to turn a part-time passion into a full-time pet-sitting business? In this episode, former veterinary technician and owner of Dreaming Tree Pet Services, Jenn Wegener, shares how her medical background gives her an edge in pet care and client trust. She opens up about the fear of leaving a steady job for the uncertainty of entrepreneurship, and how she balances structure, family, and growth. Collin and Jenn discuss the importance of networking, setting intentional goals, and knowing when to say no. Above all, Jenn reminds listeners that caring for yourself is part of caring well for others.
Main topics:
Overcoming fear of growth
Vet tech experience in business
Building trust with clients
Managing stress and self-care
Networking and intentional expansion
Main takeaway: "I take a lot of pride in caring for other people's homes and their pets."
That line from Jenn Wegener says it all. Trust is the heartbeat of pet sitting—it's what keeps clients coming back and what gives us purpose on the hard days. When you treat every pet as if they're yours, your care becomes personal, not transactional. It's the difference between a service and a relationship. Jenn's story on this week's Pet Sitter Confessional is a reminder that compassion and professionalism can (and should) go hand in hand. 💕🐾
