Welp... my last "busy day," and tears were definitely shed today. Everything is currently on track that I'll be opening April 1st.
My last day pet sitting full time will be March 31st.
This is definitely very bittersweet, I'm beyond excited to be finally getting my dream, but at the same time I have so many amazing clients who I pet sit for. I'm beyond happy that I'll get to continue to see some of my pups that I pet sit come to daycare and to get to see them for more than 30-60 minutes a day, and I'll most definitely miss those who won't be coming for various reasons.
Thank you to everyone who has helped me work towards and support my dream. I'm beyond grateful that I was able to build such an amazing clientele of amazing owners and their fur babies who were/are incredibly reliable and sweet towards me.
I'm hoping to still be available some weekends (just reach out and I'll try and make it work!) for pet sitting, but ultimately just don't want to burn myself out. For my cat-only clients, I'm hoping to still continue hanging with your cats before/after my business hours.
I have a post from a few weeks back with some amazing sitters in the Portage/Pardeeville areas that can typically do noons times. I unfortunately have not found anyone in the Rio/Poynette area for around noon. I do have a local teen who is interested in getting into pet sitting who would likely be available come summer break.
Again, thank you so much to everyone. Don't hesitate to reach out with anything! Give your fur babies extra treats for me. π
