It’s very very part time but I enjoy cat sitting; $1300/mo average. I love cats so it’s great for me lol

It really depends on what people book me for, mostly 20-min drop ins but every so often it’s get a few overnights which are 12-hour contracts per night booked. Average I’d say is like 10 hours/week when I account for drive time… so it’s not like it’s anywhere near as profitable as the day job but it’s fun and gets me outta the house lol

Getting real feedback & a true sense of things can be difficult bc typically you get back what they want you want to hear. Probing questions that might allow to read btwn the lines & uncover negative atmosphere? Thanks!
