PETS!

Grooming, Day Care, Supplies and Otherwise

Just One More Franchise Opportunity
(that you probably didn't know you could own) 

C'mon, admit it. Your pet is an integral part of your family and you love it all to bits! Well, then, you won't be surprised to learn that everyone else feels the same way about their pet. Americans spend billions on their pets. From grooming, to special day care, training, to organic food , chew toys and itty-bitty sweaters! You name, it, your neighbor is spending money on it for their little Froo-Froo, Fido and Fishie-Fishie (and the occasional 'Richard'.) Our pets require care, and the franchise world understands exactly how to meet those care needs. Whether it be a stand-alone retail one-stop-shop, mobile grooming van or mail-order food delivery, franchises have it all under control and mechanized to be an easy franchise to own, run, and from which to profit.

As the franchisee of a pet service franchise, you'll be hiring, training, scheduling and creating marketing materials. Those franchises that are retail oriented will, of course require large Class A retail space and a lot of inventory, so you are looking at a very high investment cost. But some are just so fun to run, with their own bakery, training rooms, boarding facilities and pet adoption centers.  Those that are mobile are focused on training and grooming and will have a much lower investment level.  Which ever pet franchise model you choose, you'll need to love pets and understand the pet-owner  frame of mind. (Fifi first!) But, the best part of the franchise is that your little animal family member will be able to stay with you all day long, and that makes it all the more fun!

It's not rocket science to own your own business. It's just different from the masses. A great business isn't for everyone, but it might be for you...
