dog sitting tips !! 💐🐶🐾🩵

as a dog sitter, here are some of my tips & tricks when it comes to leaving the owners house & securing repeat clients!!

i absolutely love this job & it is a great way to make money on the side, while hanging out with the cutest pups!!

doing simple things like tidying the surfaces or washing the bedding you used will make the owners more likely to think of you & give you a call if they ever need a dog sitter in the future!

most of my stays are overnight for multiple nights, so this might be more than you would do if you’re only sitting during the day, but this is just my experience.

i don’t use any apps like rover or wag! i recommend you use facebook & join your local groups, as that way you can stay better in touch with clients and set your own rates w/o having to worry about apps or other services taking a cut of your pay!!

... Read moreAs a dog sitter, creating a positive experience can lead to repeat clients and recommendations. One effective tactic is leaving a thank you note for the owners after their return. This personal touch shows you care about their pets and the service provided. Moreover, always ensure to wash any bedding or towels used during your stay. This not only maintains hygiene but also reflects your professionalism and consideration for the owners' home. Many successful dog sitters leverage social media platforms like Facebook to connect with local pet owners, setting their own rates without worrying about service fees on apps like Rover or Wag. Building a close-knit community can enhance your visibility and trustworthiness as a sitter. Consider participating in local dog events or meetups to network with potential clients and other sitters. By integrating these practices, you will not only enjoy your time with the pups but also foster a business that thrives on satisfaction and trust.
