| answered a question | Do you limit client photos on profile? I do not. I take lots of pictures and more pictures if I know an owner is a little anxious leaving their baby. I figure this is my portfolio so my best work should be included, but it also helps to demonstrate all the test shots too! |
| asked a question | How to stop dogs from marking? My dog does not mark in my house at all. But we have had a few who have started marking. My ratio of watching males vs. females is prominent so what can I do to stop the marking? |
| answered a question | What is the stubbornest breed of dogs? Shiba Inu & Jindo's! |
| answered a question | How many dogs/critters do you have as your maximum? I have one dog. I also routinely watch my brothers dog. Since I know them so well, I consider myself able to watch up to 3 other clients at a time as I am currently in an apartment. Once I move to a bigger place with a yard, I will most likely accept more. You have to do what you feel comfortable with and make sure you only do what you can handle. Trying not to overbook is a very conscious process but helpful for clients, repeat clients, you, and most of all any current pets you already have! |
| answered a question | How do u start getting clients? Make sure to know your beginning goal. If you just are doing this for some extra money VS. wanting to turn this into a career. From there, you can better determine realistic ways to spread the word. Telling people through social media helps, flyers on bulletins in your community, business cards, and also make sure to do whatever you can to boost your search rating for future clients. Do this by keeping your calendar updated, taking the Rover Sitter quiz, setting rates to the average amount in your area etc. The best way to spread the word on any new business is word of mouth so try to get the word out! |
