Hire for Culture, Fire the Toxicity: Staffing Your Pet Services Business

In this episode, we tackle the hiring process for pet services businesses with zero sugarcoating. The truth most owners won't say out loud? Most pet sitting, walking, and daycare positions don't require hard-to-find technical skills — which means you have the pick of the litter when it comes to candidates. So what should you actually hire for? Culture fit and reliability. We break down how one toxic hire can spiral into lower productivity, worse customer service, and a business you dread running — and why a great attitude will always beat pet experience. Plus, we share the questions you should be asking your team in one-on-ones to find problems before they spread, and why acting fast when you know someone isn't working out will save you every time. If you're ready to build a team that actually makes your business stronger, this one's for you.WorkWithPets.com
