As most of you know I will be traveling to Indonesia for 2 months in late January. This is a dream I’ve had for years.
When I first started my business I was able to do world travel for six to eight weeks at a time fairly easily because my business was smaller and thus, I didn’t have a lot of clients and staff.
Now my pet sitting business is huge: we cover two enormous counties, have over 30 pet sitters on staff and close to 700 pet sitting and dog walking clients!
Thankfully I also have 2 trustworthy and competent managers who run my pet sitting and dog walking business as well as I do. I also have two back-up managers. Having these 4 managers in place is definitely the only way I could be able to travel and leave my business humming along for 2 months.
But it’s not all I’ve needed…
THE most powerful tool (besides my managers) that is helping me travel for two months is Power Pet Sitter.
Power Pet Sitter is an administration software system for pet sitters that enables my managers to manage my pet sitting business from the comfort of their own homes. By using Power Pet Sitter my managers can easily access client data, schedule sits for clients, send the schedule to the staff, invoice clients and powerfully run my business for me while I am out of the country!
It took me a long time to use an administration system. I’d been doing things by hand for years and years and years. And it worked. But it was tedious. And it wasn’t an empowering way to run my pet sitting business.
Most of you know I do not recommend products for pet sitters unless I believe in them 100% and stand behind them with every ounce of me.
Power Pet Sitter is one of those products. If you are interested in running your pet sitting business in a way that is more ease-filled and empowering I encourage you to contact Power Pet Sitter today.

Power Pet Sitter is the #1 tool that is enabling me to step away from my business more and more and to create the right work/life balance for myself that includes 2 months of travel in 2010!
I highly recommend Power Pet Sitter (and, as I mentioned above, I don’t recommend things lightly -products have to *really* be amazing tools for pet sitters for me to toot their horn!) Power Pet Sitter is one of those products.
Once you sign up you won’t know how you lived without it.
And maybe you’ll find YOURSELF planning a two-month vacation away from your pet sitting business in 2010?

Do you still recommend Power Petsitter? Or is there another software that you prefer?
I have the same question that Sarah W. has. Do you still recommend Power Petsitter? I was just introduce to Pet Check, are you familiar with that administrative software? Can you recommend a software now that it is 2014.
Hi Sarah and Corey, I do still recommend PowerPetSitter.com and I also recommend Leashtime.com. I’m not familiar with Pet Check but it looks like it’s fairly new when I did some exploring online. Regardless of what software you use, I recommend that you demo a few to see which one you like (design, functionality, works the way your brain works). Each one can be very different and will appeal to different pet business owners. Hope this helps and enjoy your software! It will definitely make things a lot easier in running your pet sitting business. 🙂
