Started at overnight stay 57124
Tom's cat (easy to write) 26
Jenny's bird 29
Post Office (business related) 31
Suzy's horse 36
Lunch with friend (non business) (mileage takes me to 53)
Jim's dog (5 miles from the restaurant which takes me to 58)


I don't know what mileage to begin for Jim's dogs. Does mileage for Suzy's horse end at 36 and then Jim's starts at 58?

You would think I would get this but I don't. Haven't seen an example of when the errands hit the middle of the day between pet visits. Thank you all!

I am new to this forum and just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Sarah and I own Dog Walking & More in Northville, Michigan. I have only been in buisness for about 2.5 months and could use some advice on how to get clients and really get out there. Any advice you can offer on anything about being in buisness I would love! Thanks in advance!

I know some dog walkers have group walks in the park or outings. Do they need special insurance for this? Do their clients sign waivers, or how do they handle liability issues? ]]> http://www.pet-sitters.biz/Forums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=8&threadid=762 2010-04-30T08:30:21 -05.00 frannie 3
He has decided he doesn't like paying for something that he cancels because due to his work load, he doesn't always know in adnvace if he can be off.

He has asked me "how do you want to handle this??" Well, I want to keep enforcing my policy--but how do I explain this to him in a professional, nice manner? It's not fair to me to not know what my schedule will be. Ofter times, he is the only sit I have for the day (and if he cancels at the last minute, I could have made plans for my lone day off!!) Instead, it is like I am on call for whatever he needs, whenever. I woke up this morning and checked email, and feel like has already put a damper on my day. Any advice?? ]]> http://www.pet-sitters.biz/Forums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=8&threadid=758 2010-04-21T09:35:06 -05.00 kernix 3
I'm sure Maid Services, Contractors and other similar businesses must have to deal with this, but after talking with the police, an officer from Drexel U's campus police wants to interview me on Friday. Since I know I didn't do anything, I have nothing to worry a bout, but I'm still bothered by it. How could I not be considered suspicious being that only 3 weeks ago I got the key for the place?

This ever happen to any of you? Thoughts?

I hate when things don't run smoothly - I like smooth sailing and no-hassle times, so I'm a little upset this happened and could affect my status with this new client. I'm just really interested in hearing other people experiences to something like this.

I saved 15 dollars on a set of 250...here is how.

My one hour photo lab had a special - 3.00 for 30 4x6 prints. I edited my business cards onto a digital 4x6 picture at 300 dpi resolution in my paint shop program and ended up getting 3 biz cards per 4x6 sheet! And they're glossy and you can pick them up in one hour at any photo lab. The only thing is that they will need to be trimmed with a paper cutter, but I ended up getting 250 business cards for a little over 14.00 this way and I was able to get them in one hour and they are the same - if not, BETTER quality than the average business cards!

I had some magnets I purchased years ago online that happen to be business card size, so I am attaching the "photo biz cards" to them

Hope this helps some of you!! Just thought I would pass this along...

Anyone know why that is, or how I can get more detail to show for my business?

Thanks!
