If you're a real dog lover, owning a Camp Run-A-Mutt® could be just the change you're looking for. Think about the happiness and joy your dog gives you. Now multiply that times, let's say, sixty! Now imagine that gratification not only being part of your daily life but your career too! This attitude is what drives us and has made Camp Run-A-Mutt® such a successful and fast-growing business.
We offer a proven, successful system combined with higher values and standards for pet care. Gone are the days where dogs are dropped off and led into a "spacious" cage... it's still a cage. Camp Run-A-Mutt® is a resort style dog daycare and boarding business for the socialized dog, offering fun and exercise for K9 companions in a safe, supervised atmosphere. Along with an established system and training to open and run your business, there are no franchise royalties for the first three months you are in business. Your success is important to us and our brand so getting your doors open and filled with pups is the primary goal. We know what it takes to make this business work and the positive word of mouth has made our business a booming success.
You know you are when you're sure the dog in the car next to you is smiling at you and you wave hoping his owner doesn't notice! We're looking for people who share the same love and passion for animals. This is what makes this business fun because when your heart is in what you do success comes naturally.
Owning a Camp Run-A-Mutt® is far more than just running a business. It's becoming an important connection between your customers and their dogs. To most people their dogs are their kids and making that connection is both rewarding and invaluable to your customers.
How about waking up each morning and jumping out of bed instead of wishing it were your day off? For the right person, this business is incredibly fulfilling and rewarding. Are you a leader and want to build something of your own where you can step back and look at what YOU have accomplished with an incredible sense of pride? This is truly that opportunity.
While we feel this is a great investment and opportunity, we're not looking for someone to sit on the sidelines and "bark" orders. This is for the take-charge, hands-on kind of person who is passionate about what they do.
Camp Run-A-Mutt® changed dog daycare standards by studying an existing industry and making it better. We took the same approach with the dog daycare franchise by researching the competition and raising the bar. We offer a franchise that is easy to get into and provide a service that is head and wagging tails above the rest, making Camp Run-A-Mutt® something you will be proud to be a part of. As well as a successful, proven business model, we offer the following to all franchise owners:
We offer a protected territory with a minimum five mile radius for each franchisee. Based on the population density of the selected area this may be increased or decreased. We also assist in demographic research to define areas with the best potential for success.
Our goal is to have each location be as successful as possible with potential satellite opportunities within your protected territory for business overflow locations.
Location, location, location. A successful Camp Run-A-Mutt® needs to be convenient and accessible to customers. We offer assistance in site location, including the neighborhood, population density, and physical characteristics of the site. We also include layout recommendations and design guidelines for each location based on the successful Camp Run-A-Mutt® model.
You will benefit from our experience. We train you in all aspects of running your Camp Run-A-Mutt® including the daily operation of the business, temperament testing dogs, and training of dog monitors, just to name a few. There's a lot to building a successful business and making you comfortable and confident in running your business is a top priority for us.
Starting your own business is a big step and along with that comes hard work, long hours and dedication. Since we want you to be able to focus on getting up and running, the first ninety days you are in business, all royalty fees are waived.
