Every once in a while, something comes along to disrupt the status quo.
Some months ago, I received an email from fellow pet sitting business owner Danielle Chonody asking if we can set up a time to speak.
I already knew Danielle from the industry and was excited to hear what was on her mind.
Early into the conversation, Danielle cuts to the chase and says, “I want to start a pet sitting association!”

Properly naming your pet sitting business is every bit of marketing. Your business name immediately sets an impression in the public eye.
Your pet sitting business logo may very well be the first impression potential clients have of you and your website.

In a nut shell, GV provides you with one phone number that you can tie to all your phones. It’s not a phone service, but rather a way to manage your phones.
Initially, the service was in beta and accounts were given out by Google by invite only. They have now begun to change all that.
