FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
1. Am I going to be driving back and forth in one day, making two or three (or more) trips? 2. Would you like your dog taken to a local (for your area) dog-friendly park? 3. If you are traveling, would you like me to stay at your residence and watch the dog full time? The longest assignment
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
No. I've only taken care of two dogs other than dogs which were mine. Currently, I am "between greyhounds" as my greyhound died of a rare disease (FCE: Fibrocartilaginous Emboli) known as "the Wobbler's Disease." While rare, it's found in larger dogs, especially greyhounds, and I had the largest greyhound in the state of CT. I research everything on the internet.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
Quite bluntly, I was asked if I would consider staying over and watching a dog because I had a variable schedule and was teaching online (the history of photography). So I said sure, and it was great.
