Pursuing My Passion: From Corporate to Canine

Updated: Oct 26, 2023

As a lifelong lover of animals, making the decision to leave my corporate job to follow my heart and start my pet care services business, Elle Belle, was both exhilarating and terrifying. The transition from the corporate world to the world of pets was a leap of faith, but one that I knew was worth taking.

I can still vividly remember the day I walked away from my desk, leaving behind the world of cubicles, meetings, and office politics. It was a moment of liberation, a declaration of independence from a career that no longer resonated with my deepest passions. It was a choice to embrace uncertainty in pursuit of a dream that had been brewing in my heart for years.


Elle Belle emerged from a profound belief in providing our beloved pets with the highest level of care and attention. Equally important, we recognize that pet owners deserve open, honest, and transparent communication from their dedicated sitters. I understand the challenges of leaving your pets in the hands of others or alone at home, and my utmost goal is to establish and maintain trust throughout the entire process.


Today, as the owner of Elle Belle, I wake up each morning with a sense of purpose and excitement. The prospect of spending my day surrounded by wagging tails, purring cats, and the unbridled enthusiasm of our four-legged friends fills me with joy. It's a stark contrast to the monotony of my previous corporate life, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

One of the most rewarding aspects of my business is the opportunity to make a tangible difference in the lives of pets and their families. Whether it's providing a safe and loving environment for a senior dog or offering a playdate for an energetic puppy, I'm honored to be entrusted with the well-being of these cherished companions.


As I reflect on my journey from corporate to canine, I'm filled with gratitude for the path I've chosen. It hasn't always been easy, and there have been moments of doubt, but the rewards far outweigh the challenges. The heartfelt gratitude from pet owners, the bonds forged with furry friends, and the knowledge that I'm living my passion make every step of this journey worthwhile.


If you're reading this, whether you're a fellow pet lover, a client, or someone considering a similar leap of faith, I wholeheartedly advocate for listening to your heart when seeking your life's calling. When you align your work with your values, it becomes a source of enjoyment and fulfillment.


Thank you for being a part of my journey, and I look forward to sharing more tales of the extraordinary world of pets with you.


With heartfelt paws and purrs,

Lauren
