How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
I was always an animal lover and it seemed like it would be a great way to make a living. The truth is, it's better than I could ever have imagined it would be. I get to love and be loved by animals and get to play with them all day long. It's like I'm in Heaven and I'm getting paid to be there.
How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
I have a sixth sense with animals. It's as if I can communicate with an animal without speaking a word. My husband often asks people why they chose to use us over another service. The answer is always the same. They could tell I am a dog person immediately when meeting me and that they can see how I am completely at ease with any dog. I sit for a massive pitbull, that a man from a competeing company refused to sit for out of fear. Biscuit's a big baby just like most dogs. I fear no dog because I understand their body language and how they communicate and I react to them according to what I see.
How many locations do you have and do you have plans to expand?
3 locations and we do intend to expand throughout New Jersey to at least 50 locations by 2015.
What type of payments do you accept?
Cash
Which areas do you service?
Most of Middlesex and some of Monmouth Counties for pet sitting and dog walking. No limit as to how far you can travel to bring your dog to us. We've had dogs come from Fl, TX, CO, NY, PA and almost everywhere in NJ.
