Best of luck to you. I did this business with my daughter for 6 years and I could write a book! She offered a frequent walker card that was a big hit. She just made up her own on the computer and she got a little paw-print stamp. For every walk or visit she would stamp it and after twenty, they got a free walk. People loved it.
She also offered plant watering and mail and newspaper pickup, turning on and off lights. Nice add-ons that are appreciated.
Did you get yourself bonded?
