Our love of our animals in the UK is expected to see the value of the pet services market reach £2.1 billion by 2023 – a 25% increase from an estimated £1.7 billion in 2018.

This is hardly surprising given that 25% of the nation’s households now own a dog, amounting to 9 million dogs. (Source PFMA)

Our franchise packages are designed to capitalise on this market growth and give you the tools you need to own a successful business in a rapidly growing sector. Our franchise packages include:

Training & Support

From our very first meeting through to the launch and operation of your new business we understand that you will need support, training and mentoring until you are comfortable enough to run it on your own.

You do not need previous experience or knowledge of the pet care industry, nor do you need to be a business mogul, but a genuine love of dogs is essential. You will receive full training in sales, marketing, administration and operational procedures, learning everything you need to run your own business.

We provide a comprehensive training programme covering all aspects of the business, enabling you to be up and running in no time.

Joining Digs for Dogs means we support you every step of the way! It is important to us that each of our franchisees understands the company as well as we do and operates their business with the care and attention to detail that has made us so popular with dog owners.

Debbie Pomfret - Digs for Dogs Owner

Having worked in a job role where I had to travel around the country and stay away from home on a regular basis, I was continually under pressure to have to ask my family and friends to look after my gorgeous chocolate Labrador Jaffa and mischievous Beagle Rigby. I didn't want to use kennels and I felt so guilty about leaving them when I had to be away from home. Realising that there are a lot of dog owners in the same position, I decided to launch a business that combines my love of dogs with a professional service, giving dog owners reassurance that they no longer have to worry about being away from their pets. The business has gone from strength to strength and now I can offer our successful business model across to dog lovers everywhere that are looking for a new direction in life.
