Owner Financing is Available!
Business Overview:
This home-based business is a pet services company that provides a variety of services for pet owners including dog walking/running, dog training, waste removal, sleepovers,
boarding, pet taxi and vacation care. This business does not require a retail storefront or commercial space to operate, which gives this business model a strong advantage by not requiring a commercial lease or monthly utility costs.
The current owner has another business opportunity he wants to pursue and feels this business would benefit greatly by having an owner/operator who has time to properly manage and oversee the business. Even though he currently has very little involvement in the day to day operation of the business, sales have increased 50% from 2009 to 2010.
The owner has built a strong effective web presence with a direct and professional website with content specifically optimized for search engines. The business has an email database and directory system in place to handle customer relationship management and future marketing campaigns to thousands of leads who have signed up to receive the newsletters and promotions. The owner designed a system that allows him to travel, go on vacation, or take time off for any reason and have confidence that operations will continue and customers will be serviced.
With an owner/operator actively managing the business operations, the sky is the limit for growing this business. There's really no reason why you couldn't franchise this business as well. It's up to you and your imagination.

Property Features and Assets:
The sale of this business includes the company vehicle, a 2006 Toyota Scion XB. The location is anywhere you want the location to be. This is a home based business & doesn't require much over head, rent or mortgage expenses. Another benefit of having no physical location is having no utility bills, storage fees, maintenance fees or real estate taxes to pay each and every month. This translates to much higher profit margins for the owner.
The seller is happy to provide the necessary training to ensure your success going forward. The amount & length of training would depend on the individual buyer's needs.
