A Day in the Life of a Pet Sitter Using AI Ever feel like you're juggling flaming tennis balls running your pet sitting business? Between client texts, staff questions, scheduling madness, and marketing? Same. That’s why I created this episode—to show you exactly what it looks like to live a day in the life of a pet sitter using AI. This isn’t theory. I’m walking you through a real story—let’s call her Bailey—who’s not only a busy business owner, but also a mom and wife with 10 staff members and a million tabs open in her brain. From sunrise to bedtime, I break down how she uses AI to write care notes, handle hiring, manage her schedule, respond to clients, and even do homework with her kids—without losing her mind. You’ll hear how AI handles admin work, keeps her voice consistent, and gives her back hours of her time—all for less than the cost of a weekly Starbucks run.

Transcript Welcome to another episode of Bella in Your Business. Today, we're going to do something completely different. I'm really excited to share this with you. I want to paint you a picture. And it's not some fake story like, "Oh, I used AI and now I make 7 figures in 6 minutes." That's not what we're doing here. I want to walk you through what a normal, grounded, real-life day could look like for a pet sitting business owner—someone like you. Maybe you're a mom, running a team, juggling a household, trying not to burn out. Every Sunday in the Mastermind, I post: “What did you do with AI this week?” Every single thing you're going to hear in this episode actually happened. It’s been done by one of your colleagues. So this isn’t just me making things up. I'm introducing a fictional character who might sound a lot like you. Her name is Bailey. You may or may not be a single mom—she is. She’s got two kids, a pet sitting and dog walking team of 8 to 10 people, and she definitely doesn’t have time to waste. She’s not trying to learn 52 platforms or hire an entire internal team or VA. She just wants to figure out how to leverage AI to take the mental load off—bit by bit, moment by moment. So let’s begin at 6 AM. Mornings are loud and scrambled. Bailey’s up at 6 AM. Coffee hasn't kicked in yet. Her 6-year-old is half-dressed and groggy, her 13-year-old is already melting down because her hair won’t cooperate. Bailey has five minutes to throw on makeup before heading out the door for drop-offs. Meanwhile, an email from a high-maintenance client is sitting in her inbox. Old Bailey would have stared at it and said, “I’ll deal with it later.” But now she has ChatGPT. Bailey opens voice mode and starts talking while brushing her teeth.
