My Best Friend is a successful and expanding Van-Based Dog Care Franchise. If you like dogs, have an eye for business and are looking for a franchise opportunity from a proven business with a fantastic reputation, then the My Best Friend Business is just what you are looking for.
Despite increasingly hectic lifestyles, dog ownership is rising. As a result there is a real, growing demand for quality dog care in the UK.
My Best Friend franchisees provide a caring, convenient and professional service for dog-owners. Their services include:
As a My Best Friend Business owner you can choose to build your business using all or some of the services to suit your lifestyle.
Every day will be different. You're likely to be spending a lot of time outside walking the dogs in your care.
As a My Best Friend Business owner you can build up a network of carers for home boarding. You will be making sure those dogs are happy, as well as doing house visits, new client consultations and caring for dogs you might be looking after in your own home. As your Dog Care Business grows, you may also decide to recruit one or more dog walkers to give you a hand.
This really depends on you. As with most things, the more you put in the more you get out. As part of the application process My Best Friend provides you with tools to calculate what you could expect to earn over the first 2 years of running the business.
My Best Friend will work with you to build a tailored and exclusive territory on which to become established. They will give you comprehensive training and support to help you find clients, recruit carers and dog walkers, and assist with the day to day running of your Dog Care Business. You don't need previous business experience, just a willingness to work hard and an affinity for dogs and their owners.
It's important that you can work with confidence and know wha's best for the dogs in your care. To ensure you can do this, you will receive personal training that leads to the My Best Friend Dog Care Diploma.
My Best Friend makes it easy for their new franchisees to get their business up and running.
In addition to comprehensive training, they will give you all the other 'bits and pieces' you need to present a professional image and run your business smoothly and efficiently.
My Best Friend will also organise a fully branded van, fitted with safe and secure cages that comply with both the Road Traffic and Animal Welfare Acts.
As well as an essential part of your equipment, it's also a great way to advertise your Dog Care Business.
Becoming a My Best Friend Franchisee is more than just calculating your return on investment. It's about being your own boss, changing your lifestyle and doing something that's great fun and very rewarding.
Having always wanted to start my own business, and of course having always loved dogs, My Best Friend was an obvious choice. Their ethos and culture are a great match for me and their franchise packages seemed to be the most comprehensive available.Melanie Hillier, My Best Friend Franchisee, South Cotswolds
