Client wants to add an additional dog after a booking?
I agreed to sit for a relatively low maintenance dog about two weeks ago. It's now five days until the sit, it's already been booked, and now my client has informed me that there will be an additional dog staying at the house. I have agreed to meet with new dog, but when I mentioned my $5 additional dog fee, the client got a little upset saying "when the dog lived with us, we only paid $30 a day for the both of them". I replied by saying we can discuss this further upon meeting him and see the level of care I need to give the dog.
So what I'm wondering now is how do I handle this situation? Have I handled it well so far? How do I proceed? I don't expect the new dog to be too much more work, so do I lower the fee, keep it the same, or get rid of it all together as a 'first time special' sort of thing?
