How do I become a neighborhood pet-sitter?

Question

Hi! I want to make some money and I love pets so I thought I should start pet-sitting for cats. I want to start simply taking care of people's pets on the weekends for people in my neighborhood. How should I go about this? Please tell me everything you know will help! Thank you so much! A couple more things- I am only 13 years old and I have 5 cats of my own. Well anyway, please help! Thanks! Bye! :)

Well, I'm 13 too and i'd love to do what you want to do...all i can say is tell friends and family that have pets and possibly make flyer's and post them up around your neighbourhood and see what happens.  Also make a price depending on how much work has to be done to take care of the animal and or just take the money they give you.
