Do you think you would like to be a professional pet sitter?
Pet sitting is a calling and a long term career commitment. There is a huge difference in pet sitters and professional pet sitters. Our sitters have worked very hard with our company and built their surrounding territory. As we have learned with experience, creating a client base takes persistence and patience, so newcomers need other sources of income for their families. The rewards for the right person are significant: being appreciated by your clients and their owners, receiving many times each day that no strings attached love that pets give to their pet sitters, building and growing clients and revenues, establishing independence and avoiding the corporate office position. But the demands are high too: 24/7/365 availability, training to keep your skills and knowledge sharp, staying absolutely organized and always being responsible. The pets depend on YOU.
