Setting up the meet-and-greet asap is something we head to learn the hard way! Once you realize that you need to get the potential client on board so they end their search, the better off your business will be.

Yep, over-deliver is a simple way to assure long term success and client satisfaction that translates into more repeat business.

And asking for that coveted testimonial is mandatory. Post glowing and rave reviews from actual clients on your website and potential clients will be that much closer to hiring you.

It’s one thing for you as a pet sitter to say, “Hey, I’m wonderful…” It’s quite another thing for someone else to say it for you!

Many newer pet sitters don’t realize the imporance of setting up the meet and greet soon, especially if the job is a couple of months down the road. In my experience, the meet and greet and the deposit or up front payment will almost guarantee to put a stop to the client’s shopping for sitters. Otherwise, a meet and greet that is set up closer to the trip will probably never happen because the client will have met Ms. or Mr. Right before you ever get there.

Number 10 is also something some sitters don’t do. I’ve always operated this way, giving more than I’ve promised, and it pays off big time in customer satisfaction.

Asking for the testimonial is something many of us forget to do, but is so important. Thanks for the reminder.

Excellent advice!
