We had the good fortune of connecting with Justin Wittman and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Justin, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I’ve never wanted to work for someone but that’s the way the ball usually rolls when you first start out, but unless you finally had enough it’s when you start to take control of your own life, make money on your own time and be YOUR OWN boss and have to answer to no one but yourself. Plus we really love animals so I wanted to make it a career and can’t wait for it to take off. Just the thought of being considered an “Entrepreneur” is so satisfying and I’d love to inspire others to take control of their own lives because moment you do, nothing can stop you!

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
It took a bit of self confidence and rejections from past jobs as I think many others can relate with. Life definitely isn’t easy but it’s about how you’re going to overcome things and how you’re going to make a comeback that really makes it all worth it. I’m excited and cannot wait for this to take off one day and really make an impact in peoples and their animals lives. I can’t wait for people to see and know just how much we’ll care for not only their animals but them as well.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
Oh man this is a tough one. For me I really like hitting the town(s) that surround and taking in good food and drinks with music. I think that’s one of the best things about living in San Diego that there’s so much to offer for you and your company, even for pets! Anywhere I can enjoy myself or ourselves I’m all for it.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I just want to thank my beautiful Girlfriend and my pup, because without them I wouldn’t be where I am today and the person I am/aspire to be. The support she shows/gives me is more than I can ask for, and when I mentioned the thought of making our own business she was all in.
