- How did you get started doing this type of work?
Over 20 years ago I noticed pets that did not do well in a boarding environment, as they get stressed which can lead to loss of appetite, diarrhea, and being fearful. I began caring for a diabetic kitty at his house, and the owners were so happy that their kitty not only ate, but did not last out at me due to fear. It is very important to keep a diabetic animal from getting stressed as this can affect their insulin and the way their bodies react.
- What types of customers have you worked with?
While a majority of my clients use my services for dog walking, most are looking for a pet sitter to stay in their homes while they are away.
