Hi All,
Like Donna, I, too, am from the western suberbs of Chicago. I have been in business 10 years this month. Hurray for me!! Who knew I'd be at this that long and still enjoy every minute of it. Well, almost every minute anyway. I can't imagine doing anything else. I have a base clientelle of 300 clients and growing. I'm glad to see other sitters both on line and in my area. I've taken care of just about any animal you can have as a pet and one or two that have been questionable. I have 2 cats of my own but hopefully I'll have a dog someday when I wouldn't have to hire a pet sitter to do a mid-day walk for me since I'm out doing mid-days of my own. I think that's it. I look forward to exchanging ideas with all of you.
Sandy
