When I last saw Dr. Lee, I asked him if he ever gave his name as a reference because I'm tossing around the idea of starting a cat sitting business (like several here on PT). He said "Sure! Would you like a letter of recommendation?" I was so surprised and I said "That would be great whenever you have the time". Well, I just got it in the mail today. He said that I am extremely knowledgeable and a wonderful caretaker of my cats, that I'm compassionate and observant of many feline diseases and that he would highly recommend me as a pet sitter. Now, how nice and thoughtful is that!

That was really nice of him, but of course, we all know that what he said is true. :) Hope you'll get it up and running soon! Perhaps I should ask my vet too. :p

Well, I don't know about the knowledgeable part. What I know, I owe mostly to PT and all the knowledge that's here for the taking. The rest is personal experience. I appreciate your comments nonetheless and I definitely appreciate his kind gesture. I thought that it couldn't hurt to have a vet as a reference but I certainly didn't expect a letter of recommendation. It was a pleasant surprise.

What a good idea, to ask a vet to be a reference for you as a cat sitter.. And what a glowing (but totally unsurprising) letter he wrote!

What a great letter. So.... it would seem you have impressed the man and finally gave him the chance to say so.

Word is already spreading and I haven't even finished work on my contract or flier yet. This could be just what I need.
