Take A Bite Out Of The $50 Billion Pet Industry With Dog Daycare & Boarding

October 24th, 2011

Pet popularity is at an all time high. According to the 2011-2012 APPA National Pet Owners Survey, 62% of U.S. households own a pet, which equates to 72.9 millions homes and for 2011, it estimated that $50.84 billion will be spent on our pets in the U.S. An estimated $3.65 billion will be spent on pet services that includes grooming & boarding.

This established doggie daycare for sale is a profitable and a great business opportunity.

Description

Doggie daycare, boarding and grooming businesses are on fire. Run properly, they grow rapidly and profitably. You can take advantage of the November, December and January holiday season. The current owners estimate revenues of $30,000 for both November and December.

The employees are terrific with the animals. This business has stalled because the owners each received promotions too good to refuse. *** I have sold 2 of these previously, and the owners made more than $100,000 a year. In your first 12 months you can reach $100,000 with proper marketing and customer service.
