Introduction

I provide personal care at an affordable price. I will walk your dog(s) and pet sit for most kinds of animals, as well as pick up mail and newspaper, water plants, and take the trash out. I have had a full time job in retail loss prevention for 20 years and a part time job at a veterinary office for 16. I have been moonlighting as a pet-sitter for about 7. My specialties are large dogs, taking care of small dogs at my residence, multiple pets, odd hours and emergencies or last minute trips.

Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

I charge $15-$18 a visit for dogs and $12-$15 a visit for cats and small animals. I keep some pets with me at home for $20 a day. If I take a pet to an appointment I charge $15 for time and gas within reason.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

I love to work with animals and to be my own boss. I like to be able to negotiate with my clients without having to get the okay from someone else.

What types of customers have you worked with?

I visit alot of pets in their homes. I take care of small things during clients' vacations that they would like kept up.Picking up the yard, emptying the garbage, taking in the mail. I also have some clients that take their pets with them sometimes and I just come over to water their plants and tend to the garden.

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

I was recently hired to visit a mom and six 6 month old puppies for a week. It was so much fun to sit down on the floor and just be loved on by them!

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

Information is the best tool in developing a great client/pet-sitter relationship. Give me as much as you can and keep me updated!
