# Jump Consulting

> Jump Consulting is Bella Vasta's coaching company for pet sitting, dog walking, doggy daycare, boarding, grooming, and pet retail business owners. Coaching since 2007. Bella built and sold a multi-six-figure pet sitting company in Scottsdale, AZ before becoming a coach. Everything taught here is field-tested in real pet care companies, not adapted from generic small-business advice.

## Who Bella works with

- Solo pet sitters and dog walkers with a scaling mindset
- Owners of pet sitting, dog walking, doggy daycare, boarding, grooming, and pet retail companies
- Companies from solo operator up to $2M in revenue
- Franchise operators inside the pet care space

## Who Bella does not work with
