yep, we are in it: the long slog of summer in new orleans. whew!
please enjoy this picture of my adorable client Chloe relaxing after a walk!
my pet care biz has slowly been organically morphing over the past year or two to more petsitting and less dog walking, as daily dog walking clients move, die or otherwise fall off my schedule. but petsitting bookings have increased at the same time, so it all works out. as i age, i’m finding this rebalancing to be just what i need to keep going with this business.
that said, i do have one or two openings for daily (M-F) dogwalking in the midcity/BSJ/fairgrounds or city park/navarre area. i am hoping to refocus my business to be closer to my home so i spend less time driving all over the city, as i try to reclaim time for my art business. i’d prefer a new client or two who need 3-5 days of daily walks/week.
i have also claimed two long weekends for myself over the summer to be off work entirely. the first is coming up at the end of july, the 26th-28th. and the second is my annual birthday break in august. i haven’t quite worked out the dates yet but will be in the 8th-16th range. i won’t be booking any petsits during these times and i’ll let my dogwalking clients know when the dates are finalized how this will affect them.
as always, thanks for your business and referrals everyone! i am grateful to be able to do this work and still be in business all these years later. (since dec 2010!)
