  • At Last!

    This isn’t just for Pet Sitters and dog walkers. Having started and run small businesses for over 30 years, I’ve often been desperate for this kind support. Chenelle has done the hard yards and really understands the challenges of building a new business from scratch and she’s proved her value of her insights with her own success. First class guidance from real experience.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

38. Breeding Standards Need To Change - With Blake Mitchell From Doggo au
Q: What are the biggest issues you saw in the puppy buying space that inspired Doggo?
A lack of education and transparency, with scams and unreliable health information affecting buyers, which Doggo addresses through breeder verification, post-purchase support, and buyer education.
36. Stop Controlling, Start Communicating. Dog Body Language, With Cam from Act Of Dog
Q: Did you want to share a little bit about your background and what led you to focus on helping families understand their rescue dogs?
Campbell describes starting as a dog trainer after growing up around dogs, moving through shelter work, and building Active Dog to help families understand rescue dogs through evidence-based, compassionate approaches rather than quick fixes.
44. Raising Doggy Daycare Standards With Dylan from Farmtastic
Q: What is your view on regulation in the daycare industry?
Dylan expresses cautious support for regulation to ensure minimum standards but doubts government capacity and warns against overregulation that could harm small operators; he advocates for quality checks and selective intake instead of blanket rules.
44. Raising Doggy Daycare Standards With Dylan from Farmtastic
Q: How do you decide which dogs to take and how do you handle risks?
He explains a strict screening process, accepting only about 5-8% of inquiries, collaborating with trainers, and removing collars to reduce risk; he emphasizes on-onboarding and clear boundaries to keep dogs safe and days productive.
44. Raising Doggy Daycare Standards With Dylan from Farmtastic
Q: What inspired the core design of Farmtastic's obstacle course and enrichment activities?
Dylan says the concept grew from a long-held dream to fuse his love for dogs with farm life, and he actively designed the space using pallets, tires, and recycled materials to create a structured, enrichment-focused environment that challenges dogs mentally and physically.
