Do you love animals? Are you looking for a career that is recession-proof and always in demand? Would you like to be your own boss? You should start a pet hotel business!

I have been in the pet care industry for over a decade. I first started working as a receptionist in my uncle’s veterinary clinic at age 18. I had owned dogs and cats in my childhood, but never thought about making it a career.

When I was thinking about college, I realized that becoming a vet technician was a viable option. When my uncle retired and sold his practice, I worked with the new vet as a tech for a few years. We found ourselves with frequent requests to board animals for the short-term. Usually, these requests came from pet owners who were our usual vet clients going out of town for a few days at a time. We took these dogs and cats in for mostly weekends and holidays. I realized that in my area, the need for quality pet boarding was essential.

I started my own pet boarding business out of an old daycare building. The daycare had been closed down for a while, but it had easily convertible facilities for pet boarding. The building had a nearly commercial-sized kitchen and four different classrooms, each with its own attached bathroom. It also had a large fenced-in yard which used to have playground equipment and big indoor community space, presumably for assemblies or indoor playtime. A building originally built to house children during the day was easily converted to a building intended to house cats and dogs.

My pet boarding business was born on a shoestring budget. In this book, I will show you how to start your own pet hotel from the ground up. This book comes from my personal experiences combined with research that I conducted while starting out years ago.

I will show you everything I learned about how to start a dog or cat boarding kennel business (or doggy daycare), so that you can start your business on the right foot.

A Great read for a Great Start

truly enjoyed listening to this boom. im excited to start my new journey and business venture

Really enjoyed this piece

This was great. Gave lots of details and practical steps. Would certainly recommend to anyone who’s interested in learning where to start

don't waste your time - scam

its pretty clear to me that the author has never even worked in a pet hotel before. this book was probably written by AI or a virtual assistant and is just a bunch of generalized inactionable business 101 like how to research a business plan, get a loan, name a business etc. maybe a few sentences total that address insights into pet boarding. you could copy and paste almost everything from this book and title it as :how to start an xyz business" and it would be just as useless.
