2026 Pet Sitter World Educational Conference
Make plans to join nearly 200 professional pet-sitting and dog-walking business owners, speakers, and sponsors in Albuquerque, NM, Nov. 6-8, 2026, for PSI’s 2026 Pet Sitter World Educational Conference (PSW26)!
Hosted by PSI, the world’s leading educational organization for professional pet sitters and dog walkers, PSW26 will feature engaging general sessions, networking activities, and an exhibitor area. Beginning in 2026, the conference will debut a bold, refreshed format. Each day of the three-day event will spotlight a powerful focus—People, Pets, or Profits—with targeted sessions designed to help professional pet sitters strengthen leadership and interpersonal skills, elevate pet-care practices, and maximize business success. By focusing deeply on these three pillars, the conference not only empowers you to grow your own business but also advances the professionalism and impact of the pet-sitting industry as a whole.
Registration for PSW26 is now closed. Please contact PSI if you have questions.
