How to Post Pet Sitting Service
Pet sitting services are growing since people that go on vacation would rather have a sitter than take their pets to a kennel. If you have a pet sitting service you may wonder how you can advertise or post it relatively cheap. There are several ways to get the word out about your new business without having to spend a lot of money.
- Determine the services you wish to
offer. For instance, are you willing to stay the entire time at the
customer home while they are out of town or will you simply check in
daily to feed and water the pets? Moreover, will you offer
pet-walking service as part of the package? These are questions you
need to decide on before you can post your ad. Moreover, you need to
check what other pet sitters are charging in your area and offer
completive prices. - Open an account on Craigslist.
Select your city from the list, at the top left of the page click on
the link “Post to Classifieds” you will need to open an account,
but it is free. On the following page choose “Service Offered”
and click the “Continue” button. On the next page choose “Pet
Services” and finally the city. You will then need to fill out a
description of your pet sitting service. Make it catchy and be sure
offer some kind of pricing structure since some people will never
contact you without having an idea of your prices. - Use the Internet and post an ad on
various websites such as Pet-Sitters.
They have a list of those that offer pet sitting services and you
can post your own there for free. In addition, check Care.com,
you will need to register and be confirmed before you can post your
pet sitting services.
