Run your own successful dog care franchise and become your own boss

If you’ve always dismissed dog sitting as being a lower paid occupation, take a look at our self-employed dog business franchise opportunity. Our 60+ franchise owners love what they do! If you are facing the prospect of redundancy or simply unhappy with your job, why not work with dogs and be your own boss as a dog holiday coordinator with Barking Mad?

Choosing to buy a franchise business is a huge decision for anyone to make and we know that you will understandably have a lot of questions. Why not book onto one of our online discovery sessions, held at a time to suit you, where you can gather all the info you need on the Barking Mad franchise opportunity?

The online sessions are very informal and require no presentation or input from you – we simply allow you to make your own evaluation.
