FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I normally charge $15 per hour, that includes travel time. I spend at least 30 minutes to an hour with the animals - walking them, feeding, playing. Walking/caring for the animals at least three times a day would be $45 per day. The price can be negotiable of course, I'm very flexible.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I knew of a few people in my hometown neighborhood that needed pet sitting/walking, so I offered my services and ended up being a great fit for me.
- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Not to just take the lowest offer you receive, I feel that some people will just be doing it for the money, but taking care of animals is more than just about getting paid in my opinion. I've had people take care of my animals in the past that I paid less than others were offering and wasn't happy with the service. I feel it's important for customers to really looking into potential professionals before deciding.
