i am 23 years old and i have been thinking of starting my own small business. one of my ideas is walking dogs. alot of women around here have opened small dog walking business. i like in a decently sized city so there are lots of potential clients and alot of people who live in this city and upper middle class so they make a good income. what do i need to know about starting up a small dog walking business? if not dog walking, any other small business a woman could start up? thanks for any answers

I am in a bind for extra money and I am interested in starting a part time residential cleaning business as a one woman business (you can see that this will be a very very small business). I already work full time and would like to do this on the side.

I already have most of the supplies because I am a neat freak and I was going to start out with door hangers to advertise. I am only interested in cleaning 1 to 2 houses per week.

I am looking for advice on how to get started, what services to offer as a very small business, what to charge/how to bill, and I would like your experienced thoughts on whether it is worth it to start such a small business.

Please post your thoughts especially if you are already doing something like this, on a small scale, however all thoughts are welcome.
