What is an appropriate amount to charge for holidays, specifically Christmas and New Years?
I’m looking for a second opinion when it comes to choosing holiday rates. The current rate I charge is $29 a night and $30 for puppies and holiday rates, which I realize is not a drastic difference at all, but it’s something I’m okay with. When it comes to the holidays though, which I personally find a bit more of a sacrifice when it comes to watching dogs, I wonder if $40 a night sounds unreasonably high. My reviews are beautiful and I know those who care about the quality of care would be willing to pay, but for some reason I have this feeling with everything else people have to pay for over the holidays, going with a pricier sitter over one that’s charging less is something that would make my profile unattractive. Basically, I think I’m just trying to ask if this price sounds absurd for Christmas break specifically and if anyone has boosted their rates up over the winter holidays and what advice you may have to give. Thanks so much
