Practical pet solutions every week, and once a month a Pet Parent Power-Up to help those solutions stick. If your dog won’t stop barking, your cat’s peeing everywhere, your house feels like chaos, and you’re tired of wasting money trying everything, this show is for you.

You thought a pet would make life better, not drain your bank account, wreck your sleep, and turn your house into a disaster zone you’re embarrassed to invite people into. You’ve paid for trainers, followed your vet’s advice, and still find yourself up at 2 a.m. scrolling for answers. A lot of pet podcasts assume you’ve got endless time, endless money, and a perfectly behaved dog straight out of a Disney movie. This one doesn’t.

I’m your host, Amy Castro, longtime animal rescuer and trusted advisor to thousands of pet parents. After fostering more than 4,000 animals and helping their people go from overwhelmed to confident, I’ve learned one thing, you’re not a bad pet parent, you just haven’t gotten advice that fits real life.

Each week, I break down real-world solutions across behavior, budget, life changes, and home life so you can make smarter decisions faster. On the first Wednesday of each month, you’ll get a Pet Parent Power-Up, a short episode designed to reset how you show up as a pet parent through better boundaries, clearer communication, and calmer decision-making.

You’ll walk away with bite-sized steps that actually work for your schedule, your budget, and your perfectly imperfect pets, so you can stop chasing your tail and finally enjoy your animals and your life again. Start with the episode that matches what you’re dealing with today.
