Emma – Gloucestershire Branch

Bookings are now coming in fast and furious! So how do I feel? I’m happier than I’ve ever been in my working life, I expect to be regularly earning a similar salary to the one I left behind in the next 4 months (so within 1 year of being in business). I’m choosing the hours I work and am having more quality time with my family. I’ve applied to volunteer with Riding for the Disabled.

There were no stones unturned in ensuring I understood what was needed to be a success, and no compromise in the company values, that the dogs safety and happiness is paramount. The support you have enables you to not only be successful, but to do it with so much more confidence and speed, than it would do by starting up on your own. 

Tracey – Stockport Branch 

I joined PetStay as a franchisee in early 2014, I carried out extensive research on similar opportunities in the dog home boarding market but I kept coming back to Petstay because it ticked all my boxes, as well as being good value for money, it had an appealing website and I liked the look of the brand. I spoke to and subsequently visited Carole in Hessle with my husband and soon decided it was for me.

I couldn’t wait to launch PetStay Stockport. What I love about my PetStay job is the freedom and flexibility to determine the structure of my own day. I still get up at very early and log on to work (I am sure I will never stop doing that) however, at least I don’t have a 1 hour drive in awful traffic every morning.

My days may consist of looking at advertising/marketing avenues, leaflet drops, networking and of course answering my phone and emails to new or repeat enquiries. Of course there are always a few breaks in the day to take Alfie for a walk, which usually means more networking with the local dog walking community!
