Thanks, Jack. The dog sitting I did in early April turned me around on repeat guests. I like the idea of a free video camera to check in with. Sounds like an interesting program you have.

I applaud your honesty! The dog boarding business is not an easy one. Even though Dog Vacay or Rover cover your insurance, there is only so much they cover. Then there is the dog, vaccinations and making sure that your habitat is conducive to a good place for dog boarding. We compete against the Dog Vacays of the world by offering more services like dog daycare with dog boarding, free video cameras, free access to training commands on a daily basis, and other free programs that we can apply to both daycare and boarding dogs. We do not use crates, but I understand the need to confine a “new pet” for the night. Appreciate your honesty on the whole program!

Jack

Agreed. I’m wavering on DogVacay and may give it another chance if it’s for day boarding only. But yes, I’d much rather have more profitable opportunities.

For me, I found it was worthwhile when I wasn’t making a ton of income. Now, I have more profitable ways of using my time for which I am grateful.
