Dear Pet Sitters,

My name is Jenna.

Not long ago, I was in your shoes — working hard, stretched between a desk job and pet sitting, and unsure how to grow the demand I could actually love and depend on.

That’s when I built my system: The Very Welles Way.

It helped me create a real, independent pet sitting business that brings joy and freedom every single day.

Over time, my client list grew and grew.

But instead of hiring a team, I realized something important: I don’t want to manage people. I want to empower them.

Am I worried about creating competition for myself?

Not at all. I believe there’s room for every great sitter to succeed, and pet owners deserve amazing options.

The pet care industry needs more heart-led AND smart professionals.

Build a Confident, Independent Pet Sitting Business — Without Rover

  • What is the Very Welles Way?
    • It’s a step-by-step business-building program designed specifically for solo pet sitters who want to grow with professionalism, structure, and confidence — without competing in a race-to-the-bottom marketplace
    • Unlike the “cutesy pet sitter” noise you see everywhere, this is a high-integrity approach for sitters who want to be taken seriously — by clients, by their community, and by themselves
    • It’s everything I wish existed for me when I started:
      • A clear system
      • Policies that protect you, the pets, and the pet owners
      • Customizable templates
      • Business knowledge to build something long-term and sustainable
  • Is there anything dog-specific about this program compared to other business-growth programs?
    • Yes, responsible pet sitting requires skills that go far beyond general customer service or marketing
    • If you’re handling dogs in any capacity, understanding basic canine body language is essential
    • Dogs are constantly communicating through posture, tension, tail movement, ear position, eye contact, and subtle shifts most people never notice
    • But when you can read those signals:
      • You prevent unsafe situations before they escalate
      • You keep pets calm and reduce stress during care
      • You build trust faster with new dogs
      • You protect yourself and your business through awareness and good judgment
    • The Very Welles Way teaches the foundational skills every responsible sitter needs — including how to recognize stress, discomfort, over-arousal, shutdown behavior, and true signs of aggression
    • Responsible pet sitters aren’t just animal lovers; they’re informed, attentive handlers
  • Who is it for?
    • It’s for pet sitters who want to:
      • Start a pet sitting business the right way or level up their existing pet sitting side hustle
      • Move away from Rover dependency or constantly asking for new bookings on Facebook
      • Operate with professionalism and stand out in their communities
      • Build clear policies that eliminate awkward conversations
      • Protect their safety and avoid burnout
      • Keep clients long-term and get referrals naturally
      • If you love animals, enjoy meeting new people, value flexibility, and want to be recognized as a gold-standard pet sitter in your community, this program is for you!
  • What’s included?
    • Inside, you’ll find a full framework based on real-world experience, including:
      • Pricing strategy & rate-setting guidance
      • Strong, professional policies (with explanations)
      • Safety protocols for every season
      • Communication templates & scripts
      • Cancellation rules that reduce headaches
      • Boundaries that protect your time
      • How to present yourself professionally
      • How to build trust before you even meet
      • How to get referrals without being salesy
      • How to avoid the common mistakes new sitters make
  • Will this help me stand out?
    • Yes — dramatically
      • When you operate with clarity, professional standards, and consistent boundaries, you instantly stand out
      • The Very Welles Way gives you a recognizable level of professionalism that clients notice and talk about
      • Clients trust sitters who operate with intention and organization — and this program teaches you exactly how to do that
  • How do I know if I’m “ready” for this?
    • If you’re asking thoughtful questions about:
      • What to include in your contract
      • How to handle cancellations
      • How to keep clients happy
      • How to keep yourself and the pets safe
      • How to structure your business in a sustainable way
      • …then you’re already ready
    • The Very Welles Way meets you where you are — whether you’re brand-new or already established but ready for more structure
  • Why did you create this program?
    • Responsible pet sitters deserve a path to success that doesn’t involve guessing, struggling, or learning everything the hard way
    • I’ve grown a thriving full-time business, built strong policies, and kept clients long-term because of smart systems
    • I’ll show you what works, what truly matters, and how to build the kind of reputation that makes clients say, “We trust you completely”
