Episode notes
From First Hired To Industry Relations
- Jennifer Stoops started as the first property manager at Park Avenue after calling the founder as promised.
- She rose to run the company and later moved into industry relations at PetScreening to leverage operator experience on the vendor side.
Tool Born From Operator Pain
- PetScreening was built by a property manager to solve unreported-pet risk after a dog bite exposed gaps during an acquisition.
- The tool creates compliance, mitigates risk, and generates revenue while standardizing pet handling across properties.
An Office Full Of Dogs
- On PetScreening office days you'll see roughly 25–35 dogs across three buildings.
- They use fenced 'yards' and baby gates so many teams effectively run their own doggy daycare rows.
