Welcome to Bella in Your Business. My name is Bella Vasta, your host and pet sitting and dog walking business consultant and Facebook group expert.

But first, I want to give a big shout-out to Nanny Donnelly, who left us a five-star review on iTunes. She said, if you're someone who can take a tell-it-like-it-is, straightforward, honest, and transparent delivery, this is the podcast you want to be subscribed to if you're in the pet industry. She's upfront with her tough love approach and will have you and your business thriving if you take her advice and implement it. I recommend listening one at a time, doing that one thing or implementing that strategy into your business plan and routine, and then going on to the next. You will start seeing results snowball, and all of this advice is free. She gives it up to you, and it's up to you to do it. Reach out to her for clarification on anything. She's very much down-to-earth, easy to reach, and responds with the best advice she can.

She will always meet you halfway, if not more, as long as you're willing to put in the work. This stuff really works. Thank you, Bella. You guys, I love that review. It makes me so excited.
