What caused you to get into pet sitting/dog walking?

I started pet sitting part time after I was laid off from my corporate tech job in 2003. Pet sitting sustained me while I went back to school. I recognized the endless possibilities and demand, so I decided to develop the business even more. Now we have around 30 part-time employees serving the Boise, ID area.

What is the most fulfilling part of owning a pet sitting/dog walking

business? Giving great care to the pets and the challenge of continually improving all aspects of the business.

What is the most challenging?

Finding great employees.

Where do you see your business in 5 years?

I would like to continue to grow, but at a slower pace (we have grown up to 40% in one year and are currently hovering around 15-20%). I would like to grow at a 5%-10% as we increase rates and quality.

What has Time To Pet changed the most about how you run your business?
