it’s a new year and a new season so i guess it’s time for an update!
i have scaled back my dog walking business considerably for at least the first half of 2025, to gain time back for my art practice. i am taking an intensive online art course from march – july that will be taking up my afternoons and much of my weekends, so i am only walking dogs m-f 8am – 1pm and will only take on dog sits sporadically and from longtime clients that can work around my art schedule.
i am still taking on cat sitting work as long as the timing can be flexible around my art class obligations.
all this being said, while it’s possible that i’ll still take on new clients (especially for cat sitting), in general i probably will not. after 14 years with this business, i have a pretty diverse and extensive client roster for both dog and cat service and they keep me pretty busy. but feel free to inquire; just know that i might not be available.
hope everyone had a great mardi gras and that you are enjoying this amazing spring weather in new orleans!
