Durham, United Kingdom
 
Advert ref: M811NE
  
Business description
We are delighted to offer “FOR SALE” the Barking Mad franchise covering the major portion of County Durham. This Barking Mad franchise resale is offered at a competitive price to achieve a quick sale, having been established for approaching three years and already having established an excellent level of business in those early years. This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to combine a love of dogs with a potentially lucrative and rewarding career.

Barking Mad provide an alternative to boarding kennels, providing a home from home holiday for dogs whilst clients can enjoy a stress free holiday knowing that their favourite canine companion is also being looked after in a home environment. The business has been established in the UK for a number of years and has successfully established a nationwide franchise network.

The role of a Barking Mad franchisee is to recruit and coordinate a network of “host families” who will look after dogs whilst their owners are away and then to advertise for and suitably accommodate customers dogs matching them to suitable hosts. The franchisee visits hosts and clients and also transports dogs to and from their “temporary home”

This is a home based opportunity, where you will be self employed but with the additional security and support provided by the franchise head office and network of franchisees.
