The Company

If you love animals and working with people, this opportunity is for you! This company is a pet sitting service that provides dog walking, cat sitting, overnight pet sitting and everything that falls in between.
This business operates 365 days a year out of a home office; business hours change depending on the season and day. The current owner does a small amount of actual pet sitting, filling in from time to time when a sitter is on vacation.

Growth

The current owner has a regular marketing campaign that continues to bring in new customers. By continuing this program, a new owner could easily maintain the current growth. Supplementing the current marketing effort with new ideas could be very beneficial. Alternatively, expanding into other geographic areas is another great way to grow the business.

Skills/ Licenses Required

No special skills are required, just general business and marketing knowledge. A knack for organization would be very beneficial as the owner is responsible for scheduling, both for sales and service.
