Book Description

October 2009

During these challenging economic times, many people are looking for practical ways to boost their incomes. Starting a dog care business is a viable option to not only make more money with little startup expense but also provides assistance to millions of pet parents whose hectic lifestyles may cause them to leave their pets unattended for extended periods of time during the day or week.

Doggy Business 101 addresses the rising need for pet care services and provides detailed advice for starting up and operating a doggy daycare or related business, such as dog walking, pet sitting, and dog camps. This comprehensive guide includes step-by-step methodology for coming up with a feasibility study and business plan to encourage success in the fast growing pet service industry, plus current data on consumer usage or selection of doggy service products. It also offers advice on how to finance and staff a doggy business, with information about bonding and insurance. Marketing and advertising ideas are included to help build public awareness and interest for your self-run business, while sample checklists and business forms help simplify the day-to-day operations.

Best Book For Dog Lovers December 9, 2009
Format:Hardcover
This book appeals to dog-lovers around the world. Darlene shows her expertise and sensitivity to dogs in her book for all kinds of dog care providers. She covers every little thing to make sure you are the best person to open a dog business.
But the book is also for dog care service customers as well. She outlines what to look for when you leave your dog at a doggy day care, or have a dog sitter or dog walker take charge of your dog.
It's a no nonsense book for anyone considering getting into the dog care business and will provide you with a superb benchmark for success!!!!
