Join a fun market that's expanding exponentially! Sales of Pet Products and Services doubled from $17 Billion in 1994 to approximately $35.9 Billion for 2005. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the pet industry is now the seventh largest retail segment in the country! As baby boomers age, they often become more attached to their pets and have the cash to pamper them. When they travel, they're very concerned about the quality of the boarding center they choose. Young families share their homes with pets and often seek day care for their "friends" while they work. These trends are predicted to continue as the percentage of families that own pets continues to rise from its current 63% level.

Today, most boarding kennels are associated with veterinarians or groomers. Caring for pets is usually an afterthought to the owner's main business and it's evident to customers--and their pets.

The franchisor's "quick-start" marketing method helps franchisees quickly penetrate any market. Each is assigned a Protected Territory, ensuring that others will not be using the same trademarks or business systems in their area.

Anyone interested in providing an exciting level of service to pet lovers in their markets should consider this franchise.

Market Outlook and Competition: Few boarding centers offer the advantages of this franchise system's units--spacious suites, all day play options for exercise and fun, doggie cam from any internet connection, the ability to board several family pets in one suite, and cleanliness that shocks our customers.
