FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I do offer a free visit with each referral.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My typical process working with a new client is to set up a Meet and Greet. This is where both the client and I have a chance to meet, as well as the clients pets, and determine if we are all a good fit for each other. Generally, the Meet and Greet takes place in the potential clients new home, but it can also take place in a public setting if the potential client feels more comfortable. During the Meet and Greet, I will gather information that I need in order to care for a potential clients pets in their absence. It is also an opportunity for the potential client to ask any questions they may have for me.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
Like many others, the Great Recession impacted my corporate career. While looking for a job in my field, pet sitting was something I started to do just to get me out of the house and provide me with something to do. I quickly realized that spending time this way was not only less stressful and intensive, but something I really loved and enjoyed.
