		<title>Interviewing a pet sitter</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The pet sitting industry is no different from other industries in that there are honest and dishonest service providers. I have come across pet sitters who advertise that they are insured and bonded and are members of certain professional organizations when none of that is true.  
Ask to see proof. Any professional pet sitter [...]]]></description>

		<title>More on professional pet sitting software</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the benefits of the pet sitting software is the reminders that are generated for clients and for us. It&#8217;s powerful software that helps manage our client visits. The software generates a list of visits for each day and each morning we receive the list. For client protection no address info is in this [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why we chose professional pet sitting software</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We switched from a manual scheduling process to professional pet sitting software in mid 2009 . For new clients, our old process involved four different forms plus a Service Request that we would fill in at the interview. For repeat bookings, the client would email us, we would create another Service Request for the new [...]]]></description>

		<title>Timed Visits for Pet Sitters</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Some pet sitters advertise 20 minute visits or 30 minute visits and charge a different rate for each. I have to wonder, what if the pet is ill, needs extra care or if there is a problem in the house? What do you do then? Do you say, &#8220;Time&#8217;s up, have to leave!&#8221;?
We don&#8217;t provide [...]]]></description>

		<title>What Happened to the ACPSN?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ACPSN stands for All Canadian Pet Services Network. It was started in 2004, filling a need for a Canadian pet industry group. While the name implies it is an organization and some say it is a non-profit group, it is actually a sole proprietorship registered to Lara Willis in Toronto.

		<title>Retirement Business</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What do retired people for the next 10 to 20 years after retiring? Travelling, golfing and having lots of free time can become old very quickly. Some start consulting businesses in their specialty, others start B&#38;B&#8217;s, some open stores and coffee shops. I started a pet service. This business idea was something that I had read [...]]]></description>

		<title>Reducing Waste When Cleaning Litter Boxes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Litter boxes require daily scooping. If a new bag is used each day, that&#8217;s a lot of extra bags that are going into the landfill and that could easily be reduced to a third or less.
Here&#8217;s something that works very well. Get a small plastic garbage can, one with a lid. Line it with a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Training Methods</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Time Magazine had an article in the July 30, 2010 issue on dog training methods. Discussing training methods can become as heated as discussing politics. It&#8217;s an interesting read.
