When I find people who are so multifaceted that they literally blow my mind, I know that I have to bring them on the podcast to talk to YOU!
I've had Chelsea Kent on my radar for quite a while. She's incredible! She owns an indie pet store, she attends AAFCO meetings, she owns Parsley Pet and she owns Solutions Pet Products.
I finally got to meet her in person in 2024 and had to ask her on the podcast for you.
This episode is an overview of lots of different things that she is involved in so that we can lay the ground work to have her come back and talk a bit more in detail on some of the things that interests us all the most as pet parents who want better for our pets.
Some things we cover:
- her indie pet store and apothecary
- HPP in pet foods (y'all know this is a big topic!)
- HTMA testing
- Solutions Pet Products

She is also the founder of Food Regulation Facts Alliance, a stakeholder organization that represents retailers in government and regulatory settings. Specializing in Pathogen and Industry Regulation, she works in tandem with NGPFMA (Next Generation Pet Food Manufacturers Association) and TruthAboutPetFood and Pet Schooled to change regulation, where needed, through government channels and educate retailers about regulation.
