Description

You love your pets. But sometimes, living with them is a lot.

Between unexpected vet bills, frustrating behavior problems, conflicting advice, and everyday messes, even the most devoted pet parents can feel overwhelmed. You want to give your pets a great life, but you didn't sign up to spend all your time worrying, second-guessing yourself, or throwing money at problems that never seem to get solved.

Most pet podcasts focus on the pet. The Pet Parent Hotline focuses on you too. We offer practical help for overwhelmed pet parents who want to care for their animals without sacrificing their time, money, or peace of mind.

From pet behavior solutions and affordable pet care to nutrition, veterinary decisions, aging pets, adoption, and everyday challenges, you'll get practical advice that helps you solve problems, avoid costly mistakes, and make decisions that work for both you and your pets.

I'm Amy Castro, a longtime animal rescuer who's fostered more than 5,000 animals. Each week, I share lessons learned from years of rescue experience and insights from animal experts to help you navigate the realities of pet parenting with greater confidence.

On the first Wednesday of each month, you'll also get a Pet Parent Power-Up, a short episode to help you manage the stress, guilt, and decision fatigue that come with caring for animals.

No fluff. No guilt. No pretending pet parenting is easy.
