Let them book the holiday and actually relax

How it works

1. 1

   Share one link

   You get a single link. Send it by text or email to a client whose work went well.

2. 2

   They write it, in a minute

   No account, no app, no password. They rate you, write a couple of lines, and they are done.

3. 3

   You approve what appears

   Nothing is public until you say so. Approve the good ones and they appear on your website automatically.

When to ask

When they get home to a calm animal and a tidy house.

The single biggest reason pet sitters have no testimonials is that nobody asks while the work is still fresh, not that clients are unwilling.

Questions that get a real answer

“Please leave a review” produces “great service”, which persuades nobody. Ask something specific instead:

• How often did you hear from us while you were away?
• How was your pet when you got back?
• How did you find the house?

What good looks like

An example of the kind of thing pet sitters collect with Exalted.

Illustrative, not a real client. Every testimonial Exalted publishes is written by a real person and approved by the business owner.

Your reputation, as a ladder

Approved testimonials move you up a tier. It gives you a reason to keep asking, and it gives visitors a shorthand for how established you are.

Pricing

Starter is $9 a month or $85 a year. Pro is $19 a month or $180 a year. Both start with a 14-day free trial and neither asks for a card to begin.

Worth reading before you ask

• What a September rate hike does to the quotes you sent in May
• What ninety dollar oil has to do with your testimonials
• What to do when a client leaves you a bad review
