Pet-sitting

As seen in Juice magazine

Cara Hall of Juice contacted me a few weeks ago for an interview to go in their "What I'm Into" section for the March 26th edition.  While the photo unfortunately doesn't show Bob very clearly and the blog's name was printed inaccurately, hopefully it will help to get the word out about my new pet-sitting service.  To see the article on the DMJuice.com website, click here.

Hey, it's free publicity.  I can't complain.  Grin

Launching DSM Pets!

The secret is out and I'm almost ready to publicly unveil my new business web site!  Hurray

Introducing DSM Pets, my new pet service catering to the Des Moines-West vicinity!  Licensed and liability insurance-pending!  DSM Pets is also registered with NAPPS (National Association of Professional Pet Sitters). 

My new pet service will offer pet-sitting, dog-walking, small animal cage cleaning, aquarium maintenance and fish feeding, and overnight companionship visits.  I am comfortable tending to cats, dogs, rodents (particularly rats and mice), reptiles and amphibians, ferrets, and aquarium fish.  Basically most animals, with the exception of birds, exotic pets, and poisonous or venomous species.

I'm so excited about this new business venture!  Biggrin   Caring for animals is such a rewarding experience, as I've discovered while working at the pet store (which I intend to remain working at on weekends and evenings that I'm not in class).

The business cards have arrived and I've designed an assortment of flyers, coupons, and posters to be distributed throughout town this upcoming week.

Wish me luck and I'll post my progress here on the blog!
