starting my own pet care business?

I’m hoping to start my own business offering such services as pet walking, day care while at work, and constant care while on vacation. I’m certified in pet first aid through Petco; I have experience rescuing and rehabilitating abused and neglected farm animals. I’m also volunteering at our local humane society this summer. I was wondering where should I start? I plan to put an add in the local newspaper’s classified section, posting fliers at local pet stores and vet’s offices, and I’m having business cards made up to hand out. I realize that most businesses similar to this do not last long before they die out so I am prepared for the worst however I’d like to give it my all just so I know for myself that I at least tried to do what makes me happy. Any advice for an ambitious high school graduate hoping to start her own pet care business?
