Property Features and Assets:

The business started as a dog breeding kennel in 1952, but gradually transitioned to a boarding kennel prior to the current Owner taking over operations in 1989. The Owner has made several improvements to the property, including expansion of the existing kennel building in 2000 and recent upgrades to the outdoor play areas. The business has built a database of over 12,000 addresses from current and previous customers.

Market Competition and Expansion:

This pet boarding facility benefits from its long-standing reputation, experienced staff, and well-maintained amenities. The kennels are equipped with air conditioning, outdoor runs, and fenced play areas, providing a comfortable and safe environment for pets. The business operates on approximately 1.8 acres, with room for potential expansion. Furthermore, the township in which the business is located has ceased approving zoning for new overnight pet boarding facilities, effectively limiting direct competition and strengthening the long-term viability of this well-established operation.

A Buyer may consider several opportunities for expansion and increased revenues, including:
-Enhancing advertising and marketing efforts to boost customer awareness and bookings.
-Expanding grooming services to attract a broader client base and create additional revenue streams.
-Updating the facility with modern amenities, such as luxury suites or live-stream pet monitoring, which may appeal to pet owners seeking premium services.
With a strong existing customer base and limited local competition, this pet boarding kennel presents an exciting opportunity for an owner-operator or investor looking to enter or expand within the pet care industry.
