Hi everyone,
I hope that someone can help me.
I'm aiming to venture into the field of pet sitting (I'm currently studying a sitter course) in the near future and hoped that any fellow sitters out there might be able to give me some guidance!? What route should I take? Become a sole trader with my own business, self employed and work for a pet sitting company or take out an existing company franchise? What has worked best for you?
If I decide to have my own business what prices should I charge so that I can make a living but not be outpriced by competitors? Are there any major tips that anyone can give me which has helped them, or any advice I should heed?
All replies will be very much appreciated [
