Have you ever wished there was some sort of emergency hotline you could call for help with your dog? Well, you’re in luck because it turns out there is!

Today we welcome to the show Amy Castro, founder and host of the podcast Pet Parent Hotline. The show grew directly out of Amy’s years in animal rescue, where she founded Starlight Outreach and Rescue and personally fostered more than 4,000 animals. Through that work, Amy saw firsthand how often pet parents are trying to make difficult decisions without enough practical, trustworthy information. Inspired by this, she started the Pet Parent Hotline podcast to answer the questions she received every day from people desperate for help for their pet problems and/or those considering giving up their pets.
Through the podcast, she aims to help people and animals by providing honest conversations, real-world advice, and practical solutions that support both pets and the people who love them.
