This episode aired a few years ago and it’s being re-released today. The pet business coaching client I’m working with on this episode is Alexis, the owner of Hand and Hound Pet Sitting.
After ten years of pet sitting for neighbors and friends, Alexis Campbell turned her side job into a full-fledged business in 2019.
Hand and Hound Pet Sitting serves clients in the Phoenix area, and strives to be “like your neighbor, but with more credentials,” making relationships with families and their pets. In 2021, Hand and Hound hired their first employees, and doubled their revenue. Now at 8 part-time employees, they are hoping to expand even more in 2022.
Like many pet business owners, Alexis is feeling very overwhelmed, and this coaching session is all about how she can best deal with the overwhelm. I invite you to sit back, relax and enjoy this coaching session with Alexis.

Hi Kristin,
So, here’s how I’m doing now, a few months after my coaching call with you:
After holiday craziness, and some more employee difficulties, I’m hesitantly optimistic that things are on the up swing.
I have implemented the tactics you, Kristin, suggested to me during our recording. I am checking in with my employees weekly on how they’re doing, both personally and with the work. That seems to have helped us connect and I get a better sense of who they are and what they’re dealing with so I can accommodate. I am also taking time for myself away from my phone and teaching them slowly how to self-manage more so I can be away from my phone, and breathe through the really hard, inevitable situations that arise by understanding that they are bound to happen in this business, and it’s nothing I can’t handle. I lead with curiosity, which has also helped me run this as a business and not take issues personally. Thank you so much for your help, and I hope it helps others, too!
Thank you again for this opportunity, Kristin! It was so fun and valuable, and I felt comfortable with you immediately. I hope to talk to you again soon.”
