Is your pet sitting website your biggest and best marketing tool?
Is it paying off or is it sucking the life out of your business?
Just like with any other marketing tool, you need to see a good return on your investment in order for it to be working.
Put a price tag on the time alone you’ve devoted to your site and decide if it’s working with you or against you.
A pet sitting website that works is one that ranks well in the search engines and, perhaps more importantly, converts your visitors into happy clients.
(Video Length: 8 minutes 53 seconds) Hey there, we are live, thanks for tuning in, you got Josh Cary here founder of PetSittingOlogy with another Q&A video for you.
One of our members asked: “How do you create a business email address for your pet business?”
That’s such a good question because you can instantly become that much more professional by using a business email address.
What is a business email address? Let’s say, for example, your website is JoshsPetSitting.com. You can create an email address like hello@joshspetsitting.com or services@, contact@ josh@ … Anything you wish @<your domain name .com>.
Creating an email address is so simple to do. If you are currently already using our PetSittingOlogy Get Found First SEO Platform for your website this is all included. There’s absolutely no additional charge and you can have unlimited business email addresses.
You may have noticed some neat crisp looking icons on our redesigned PetSittingOlogy.com home page. A member asked how we did that and where we got them from. Watch the video to find out exactly where and how you can get any variety of icons to use for free on your own pet website.

Hey there and welcome, thanks for tuning in, you got Josh Cary here founder of PetSittingOlogy with another Q&A video. Today the topic is all about icons and how to get a really crisp professional look on your website with free icons.
As you know, our one mission and goal around here is to help you get found first and one of the best and most direct ways to do that is to provide a professional, robust, valuable, good-looking and informative website. It’s all the things that you place on the page that matter including the icons, the images, the graphics, the way you lay out your content and your paragraphs.
Today I want to talk to you about the icons we used on our home page. One of our members asked where we got them and how he can they get them too. So, I’m going to show you exactly where we get our icons from and you can get them for free.
The icons are from the site Flat Icon (FlatIcon.com) and this has become one of my absolute favorite websites.

How to Reduce Fear, Stress, and Anxiety in the Pets in Your Care: A Dialogue with Dr. Marty Becker, hosted by Josh Cary
Update: Our live video training session, where our special guest, Dr. Marty Becker, went incredibly well. We discussed all the ways that you as a pet care professional can reduce the fear, stress and anxiety in the pets in your care.
Obviously, this has multiple benefits, least of which is creating a stronger bond between you and the pet, and allowing you both to enjoy a happier, healthy life.
Thank you for the overwhelming support for my new initiative, The Josh Cary Collective. In case you missed my initial post on this, see this post.
Many of you are asking “How much is it to join?” And it’s a great question that I will answer in full in my very next video.
Today, I’d like to provide you with a more detailed overview of what you are going to receive from being part of The Collective. You know, the big benefits of joining!
First, I need to make clear that this is not another pet sitting group, or another pet sitting association. Those already exist.
The Josh Cary Collective is for those in the pet industry who are ready for a safe and supportive space to become the best version of themselves as possible.
It’s for those who get the need for personal development as it directly relates to the bigger picture.
As you know, we are back from our pet sitting conference that was wildly successful for a variety of reasons (both personally and professionally). Many who attended are experiencing moments of gratitude and elevation, myself included, and are embracing this experience of personal growth and development. It’s clear to see how it positively impacts EVERY part of life and business.
I’ll have plenty more to share on this topic in the coming days and with that, I’ve been working to create a community for those who appreciate this focus and are looking to grow, find meaning in your work, and gain a sense of clarity in all you do.
My vision is for a new kind of pet industry organization that we can all benefit from together. A safe and supportive place where we learn and grow “in real time” alongside each other. I hope you will join me soon. Here is the scoop:
NOTE: We’ve found a great new free tool that will help get you more Google reviews! Keep reading and watch the short video below.
When it comes to your pet sitting business website, we all have the same goal:
To rank high on Page 1 of Google for your chosen keywords when a potential client is searching for the service you provide.
But how exactly can you assure that happens more frequently?
It all comes down to the Google Algorithm. That’s a fancy term for Google’s 200-point checklist they use to determine where your website will rank for each search term.
Please join us at the PetSittingOlogy conference this October. We’ll be featuring expert speakers and experienced pet sitters, all of whom will help you build a better, more organized pet sitting business!
Our special interactive feature at the conference will be Workshop Wednesday, at which five very successful pet sitters will lead community discussions on current topics.
Cindy Vet, a pet sitter and coach from Atlanta, will lead a discussion on why getting “me time” will not only help you and your state of mind, but it can also be a great way to network.
