And How K9 Resorts is Moving Forward

As we get another decade underway, it’s a great time to look back at where we’ve been and where we’re going to go in the future. The pet industry as a whole has seen substantial growth over the past decade as people spend more and more on their pets’ happiness and well being. Our furry friends are truly members of the family, so it makes sense that owners are happy to invest in their care. Just from 2010 until now, pet industry growth has increased by nearly $30 billion with no signs of stopping at all. Moving into a new decade means we have even more ways to keep our pets well-fed, entertained, cared for, and thriving through a variety of advancements in technology and pet care. There have never been more pet business opportunities for people who want to marry their love of animals with a stable career. Over the past 10 years, K9 Resorts has focused on continuing to expand its franchise footprint with the support of savvy animal-loving entrepreneurs. Let’s take a look at what the last 10 years brought us as a franchise and what we anticipate the next 10 will deliver.

The Last Decade

The K9 Resorts franchise has come a long way from where it started in 2005 when two brothers wanted a way to make money for playing with dogs all day. Jason and Steven Parker have since turned their dream into a reality for themselves and many other pet-loving business owners. They recognized the numerous pet business opportunities in a growing market and, really, just wanted to figure out how to spend their days with dogs. As a result, and combined with their love for animals, they created a luxury dog boarding and daycare franchise that is unmatched. K9 Resorts now has 11 locations across the Northeast and the Carolina’s with more in development. The past 10 years have allowed K9 Resorts to bring their unparalleled level of care to more pets and pet owners due to the never-ending pet industry growth.

K9 Resorts vs. The Competition

What the Industry Looks Like Today

The shift from viewing pets as accessories to the family to true members of the family has fueled demands for more tailored pet care experiences, which is exactly what K9 Resorts provides. Pet parents don’t want a one-size-fits-all solution for their pets; they want Fido and Fluffy to be treated as individuals because each pet has their own personality. The recognition of what pets need to thrive and the dedication of their owners to give it to them has offered a unique opportunity for those in the pet care industry. People are willing to pay for quality when it comes to pet care from daycare and boarding to grooming and nutrition. Today, there are still a variety of pet business opportunities as a result of this shift in view.

K9 Resorts has opened many of its current franchise locations just over the past few years. Pet industry growth is soaring and quality pet care businesses are seeing the benefit. Places that understand what pets need and what pet owners want for their pets are getting the lion’s share of success in today’s industry. As an example, K9 Resorts offers a tailored experience based on your pet’s specific needs and temperament. Boarding can be stressful for pets. You’re their people and when you’re not around, the stress begins to set in. However, at K9 Resorts, we make sure that your pet is as stress-free as possible through the use of specified care based on their needs. Whether they love being social with other dogs, or they prefer a quieter experience with a TV on in the background, we can accommodate them. Our processes and understanding of what dogs need set us apart from the competition.

Looking at the Next 10 Years

The pet care industry shows no signs of slowing down. As technology advances, so will the new offerings for our pets. Today we have automatic treat dispensers with cameras to keep an eye on our four-legged friends while we’re away, but in the next 10 years will other types of automated devices come to market to make our pets lives and our lives a little easier? How will breakthroughs in veterinary care prolong the lives of our furry family members? Any successful business must keep up with evolving technology and figure out what will benefit its customers and what seems to be a passing phase. At K9 Resorts, refining our award-winning processes and keeping up with useful state-of-the-art technology will set us up to continue to succeed over the next 10 years. No matter what new technologies are developed in the next decade, one thing we know is how to treat dogs and their owners. Continuing to provide unmatched customer service and a premium environment for pets allows us to weather whatever the next few years throws our way.

Thankfully, the pet industry is relatively recession-proof because people understand that their pets still need quality care. If you’re researching pet business opportunities and have an undying love for animals, K9 Resorts might be the choice for you. Our luxury dog boarding and daycare business is lucrative, award-winning, and ultimately rewarding.
