- Why did you start your business? When my husband and I searched for a reputable pet sitting company in our area, but we struggled to find one. Most of the companies we reached out to never even returned our call. Already having a lot of pet care knowledge and a serious love for pets, we knew we could create an awesome in-home pet care company with amazing customer service. And that is exactly what we did with Angel Pet Sitting. Now, 8 years later, we have over 15 employees and 500+ clients.
- What is unique about your business? Pet sitting and dog walking is definitely not your typical 9-5 job. We are available to our clients 24/7, 365 days a year. All of our employees are extreme animal lovers and love taking care of their furry clients. When I tell most people about our business, they always react like, “oh, that’s so cute…you walk a few little fluffy puppies during the week.” LOL…we are a legitimate professional pet sitting company and caring for our clients’ pets is not a part time gig for us. All these things make us unique, as well as the fact that we know are stuff about pets, but we also know our stuff about how to run a successful business.
- What’s on your Playlist? I think a better question would be what is NOT on my playlist. Music is a huge part of my life. I love the Beatles, Joni Mitchell, Amy Winehouse, The Civil Wars, Adele, Stevie Wonder, Nikka Costa, ZZ Ward, George Michael, Ray LaMontagne, G Love, Van Morrison, and the list goes on!
- Where do you find inspiration? My 2 main sources of inspiration would have to be books/articles and talking with other people in my industry. I love to read, so I come across a lot of great ideas in books and articles that really inspire me. I also get so much out of talking with other business minded women, like myself. There’s nothing like hearing about someone’s successes to motivate you to achieve your own goals.
- Why did you decide to work with Doodle Dog? I loved their aesthetic and after talking to Nikki about their web design process, I felt as though they offered the best service for the most reasonable price. I loved the fact that they had a design portal that clients can access at any time to provide them with information about the project they are working on, and to see the progress of the project. Super efficient and cool!
- Why did you feel the time was right to kick-off this project? After talking to a bunch of other business owners, I realized how important our web presence really is! Our website was done about 6 years ago and it needed a serious make-over. We want prospective clients to look at our website and think…Wow! This company looks amazingly professional and organized. We need to have them watch our pets while we are away. And with our new site, I think that’s exactly what prospective clients will say 🙂
- What’s your favorite part of your new site or new brand? I love the sleek/modern look of the site, as well as the functionality. The way the Instagram and testimonials are tied in is super cool as well. Its overall just an awesome site!
- What advice would you give to someone considering a rebrand or relaunch? Plain and simple, use Doodle Dog! 🙂
- Is there anything else you would like to mention? I think that about covers it. We are thrilled with the site and can’t wait to announce the launch to our clients 🙂
