Why It's Different for Pet Sitters
Pet Sitters have a particular problem when it comes to getting found online. The work is local, the calls are urgent (insurance and bonding does not wait), and the competition is dense. The fix is not generic SEO. It is specifically getting you into the Google Map Pack for the searches your customers actually use.
Most pet-sitters get the same kinds of calls: finding trusted sitters, holiday pet care, and specialist pet needs. Pet Sitters who show up first when somebody types those phrases into Google get the lion's share of the calls in their area.
What We Actually Do
Among the pet-sitters we have already taken on, every single one had the same bottleneck. Their Google profile was half-empty and their site was not ranking for the urgent pet-sitter searches. Not a DIY platform. Not a course. Not a coaching call. We do all of it for you. Website, Google profile, reviews, SEO, missed-call recovery, monthly report. Done.
Most pet-sitters we work with already have a website that is not ranking for pet-sitter searches and a Google profile that is half-empty. We rebuild the pet-sitter website on faster infrastructure and rebuild the pet-sitter profile from scratch with proper categories, photos and weekly posts.
What Most Owners Get Wrong
We work with seven UK trades businesses, and the same diagnosis keeps coming up across our pet-sitters and other trades clients. The common thread is search visibility, not skill. The phones do not stop ringing because the work has dried up. They stop ringing because somebody else's listing is showing up first. That is the entire diagnosis nine times out of ten.
The Clients We Already Run
When we sit down with pet-sitters and look at why the calls have stopped, this is what we usually find. The pet-sitter business has reviews, has skill, but is invisible on Google for the right local searches. We are small on purpose. Seven paying clients right now: a mix of plumbers, heating engineers, paving and bathroom fitters across England and Wales. Every one of them we know by first name. Every one of them got a real result inside the first month.

The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
The SEO work includes weekly Google Business Profile posts, a monthly fresh photo upload, citation consistency checks across the 30 directories Google watches, on-page optimisation tweaks based on what is ranking, and weekly position tracking. No copy-paste reports.
Missed-Call Text-Back
Every missed call gets an automatic text within seconds. The script is plain and human (we wrote it ourselves, it does not say 'this is an automated message'). Most callers reply within minutes and book a callback.
Review Automation
The reply rate sits around 30% across our existing clients, which is roughly five to six times what owners get when they ask in person. Most owners forget to ask half the time anyway.
What It Costs
£199 setup. £199 a month. That covers the website, the Google profile, the reviews, the SEO, the missed-call texts, and a monthly report. Less than £6.70 a day.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
One job from Google pays for the month. The price is £199 setup and £199 a month. Less than £6.70 a day. Cancel after the third month if it isn't working out.
What do you actually do every month?
Specifically: build and host your website, run your Google Business Profile weekly, set up review automation, set up missed-call text-back, write four blog posts a month, send a monthly report. That is the full list.
Do I need to do anything technical?
Nothing technical, no. We do all the work. You give us the basic details, we handle the rest. If something needs your input we will text or email and ask in plain English.
What if I already have a website?
Most of our current clients had a website before us. We brought theirs across without losing any URLs or domain authority. Yours would work the same way.
How long until I see results?
Different things move at different speeds. The missed-call system catches calls from day one. Google profile changes show in days. Search rankings take months. We are upfront about all of this from the start.
Can I cancel?
Three months, then it is month-to-month. Cancel by text. The website stays online (you keep the domain and the site), we just stop running the SEO and Google profile side of it.
