My wife and I are launching a small start-up in the Hawaiian Paradise Park area for "In (your)Home Pet Sitting and Home Care". Primarily for that last minute emergency trip, vacation, stay-cation or that you have a pet that functions better in a familiar environment. We do not board animals at our residence. Residents of Hawaii since 1978 and HPP owners since 1998. Visit our site at Pueo.biz

Nice website. Do you have references of happy customers? I'd put that on your site as well (or maybe I missed it). I used to be a professional pet sitter in Alaska, it's a fabulous way to earn a living.

Dayna thanks for the feedback. I'm still tweaking the website and was struggling with releasing references on the site or with the initial interview. Though I've done this for friends and families ever since I was a kid it is only recent that I've had an opportunity to care for animals or care for someone's property while they are away. As a start-up I realize that word of mouth will be my best tool until I build a reference pool. To quote you " Do you have references of happy customers?" End quote. If only my own animals could speak! That word of mouth will have to come from those who know my character, integrity, and work ethic and love of animals and the care of property as if it was my own. I don't plan to make a living from it as I am retired military and near the end of a second career and my wife has a small business with steady income. This all started with our own difficulty with finding/affording care for a cat requiring injected meds, 3 other pets needing care and tending to needs of property etc. we ended up farming out responsibilities to 2-3 individuals, at a cost. So what I hope to attain here is to provide a package that fulfills a need at a reasonable price and piece of mind. References? I'll probably tweak the site with a sidebar for that and comments. Additionally, I'll put a Facebook page together since I believe people are more prone to provide quick feedback through social media. Again thanks for the points and I do apologize for TMI?
