Ok, My turn, LOL!!

I am a newbie, we officially opened Oct of 99..so I have been in business a little over six months. We have come in contact with a sitter who went out of the business...and her and I have become freinds, so most of our clients were hers! Which is great for starting out. We are a bit slow now, but I am looking to sdvertise a bit more. Go back to the vets, etc.
I am not alone in this, I have a business partner, Susan, who doesnt have a computer, so it willbe me posting :)
Oh, lets see..I am 25 and truly beleive this is what I am to do with my life. I absolutely love it!
My husband and I have 2 beagles and 2 cats. That is enough (so he says! LOL) for now!
We live in the western suburbs of chicago and pet sitting is pretty popular out here...as far as I can tell!
