Franchise Information

The Pet Industry is a recession-resistant business opportunity. Even in a challenging economy, the overall pet industry is projected to rise to $47.7 billion. The Boarding and Grooming segment is estimated to climb to more than $3.5 billion.1

A huge potential customer base. Over 62 percent of U.S. households own a pet, with more than 45 million of them owning 77.5 million dogs. Dog owners include: working professionals, vacationers and passionate pet owners who want the best for their dogs. What’s more, the need for dog daycare and other dog care services continues to increase as more people work longer hours.2
