The Pet Business Wellbeing Mentor
With Nathan Dunleavy
Running a pet care business can be one of the most rewarding things in the world but it can also be overwhelming, isolating and downright exhausting.
That’s why I created The Pet Business Wellbeing Mentor 💙
I’m Nathan Dunleavy and I help pet professionals build businesses that feel good to run – not just profitable, but purposeful, ethical and sustainable.
With over seven years running multiple pet care companies (plus more than over a decade in corporate and business banking), I bring a rare mix of lived experience, practical business strategy and genuine emotional support to the table.
This isn’t about scaling fast.
It’s about safeguarding your sanity while building a career you love.
What is Pet Business Wellbeing?
It’s about you – the person behind the business.
Your confidence.
Your time.
Your mental health.
Your boundaries.
It’s business mentoring that puts wellbeing first.
What real support looks like
It’s not pushy, salesy coaching.
It’s not recycled templates.
And it’s definitely not “hustle harder” nonsense.
Instead, it’s honest, practical, human-to-human mentoring – tailored guidance, a safe space to think out loud and the steady reassurance that someone’s in your corner.
Whether you walk, train, groom, or cuddle for a living, I’m here to help you build a business that feels good, does good and works for you.
If you’ve ever thought:
“I love what I do… but I’m knackered, doubting myself and don’t know what to fix first,”
You’re not alone, and you’re in the right place 🧡

The Boundaries Breakthrough Bundle
If you’re anything like the pet pros I work with, the hardest part isn’t knowing you need boundaries – it’s sticking to them when clients push back, payments are late, or your phone won’t stop pinging.
That’s exactly why I created the Boundaries Breakthrough Bundle.
What’s Inside:
Done-for-you Scripts & Templates for auto-replies, cancellations and price rises
Mini Video Walkthrough (5 mins) showing you how to use them with confidence
Quick Reflection Sheet so you can spot your boundary weak points and strengthen them
No overwhelm, no jargon – just practical tools to protect your time, energy and sanity as a pet professional.
