Sound Familiar?
These are the problems we hear from pet sitters in Torquay every single week. If any of these hit home, we can help.
Cat owners don't know you do cat sitting too
Many pet sitters do home visits for cats. If your Google listing only mentions dogs, cat owners search right past you.
Holiday bookings going to another sitter
Pet owners pick the sitter who looks most reliable online. More reviews + better website = more bookings.
Not showing up in local pet sitting searches
Owners want a sitter nearby. If you're not in top Google results, those bookings go elsewhere.
No online booking making it harder for clients
Pet owners want to check availability and book easily. If your website doesn't show this, they go to a sitter who makes it simple.
