Advice on starting a Pet Sitting Business?

Advice on starting a Pet Sitting Business I would like to start a pet sitting business for cats only. What is required for startup on that? My husband seems to think I would need to apply for a small business license.

I say no, for one thing I don't want anything big and just plan to do it in our subdivsion and surrounding area. I do plan to report the earnings but since we use an accountant for taxes that should be simple enough. Also, what is required to become bonded?

I am totally green on this and have no experience other than I love cats, they usually bond with me easily and we use a sitter often for our two cats. Any advice from experienced sitters would be appreciated. Asked by Angel_Lvr 36 months ago Similar questions: Advice starting Pet Sitting Business Pets.

If you're seriously interested in staring this business, work out a business plan. Call the city where you live, ask if a license is required. Then contact the Small Business Administration, via the web, or just yellow pages, then do your homework and write a business plan.

The process is really valuable, not easy, but worth the trouble. If you can’t write a business plan, you shouldn’t be in business. Sources: www.
