Pet Sitting Stories
It's here! Pet Sitting Stories (New addition to How to Make Money Pet Sitting!)
By Ginger L. Miller
You will want to read this:
If you are thinking about starting a pet sitting business, but are wondering just what might lie ahead for you
If you wonder what kinds of "potholes" you are likely to fall into as you gain experience as a professional pet sitter.
If you just need a good chuckle!
Every time we begin something new, we almost always discover all sorts of problems we hadn't anticipated. How nice it would be if we could simply go about our business and have nothing but positive experiences. However, that isn't reality. Life is full of "potholes," and falling into them is as certain as breathing.
(Definition of pothole...a deep hole or pit. My definition of "pothole":1) A hole in the pavement caused by our Northern Indiana winters that my car tires fall into on a regular basis all spring. 2) A less than desirable experience that since I hadn't foreseen it, I fall into it.)
Pet Sitting Stories is a collection of some of the deeper "potholes" I have landed in as I traveled the road as a professional pet sitter. I have not shared them with you to frighten you away from pet sitting. Rather, I think the incidents are interesting (sometimes downright funny!!). The are definitely not the norm. As anyone who has been a pet sitter for a time will probably agree, most of our assignments are blessedly "hum drum"
We stay in the pet sitting business because of all of the wonderful pets that are usually predictable. This job is fun! However, some of these little "potholes" that are part of any profession cause us to stop and adjust some of our ground rules. If nothing else, these experiences are grist for some pretty wonderful stories later on.
I hope you enjoy reading about them as much as I have enjoyed re-living them as I wrote the book.
I wish you success,
Ginger L. Miller
