Dog Daycare While You Work

Dog daycare are one of the easiest side hustles you can conduct. The concept is simple, have space for each dog, and make sure they use the bathroom and are fed via customer instruction. That’s it! However the set up is the hard part as there are equipment you need to buy in order to make this operation possible.

you need segregated space with dogs, lots of bad daycares have one open space for dogs to live and play in, some of them are too senile to play with young dogs, and injuries can occur. You don’t want to be receiving the wrath of your customer if a dog gets hurt in your establishment, it’s bad for business reputation and slow your progress. In order to segregate them you need metal cages installed in the area. They don’t have to be fully closed, they can have open roofs to save cost, long as it’s high enough.

If you’re on a budget and want to keep cost low, you can get play pens for dogs, accordingly to their size for big dogs and small dogs. If you decide you want to make a large operation, you can hire professionals to install big metal cages, and be personally welded.

Backyard

Ideally dogs need to use the bathroom 3 times a day, you need to give them 10 minutes to use the bathroom. It also ideal you have a backyard, if you don’t you have to walk them out.

Hardwood

Dogs will have accidents, no matter how good they are. You can install hardwood floors, or tile floors. If you are on a budget you can operate in your garage where it’s cemented, but make sure it is clean and bright, so your customers can feel at ease where they put their dogs.

Legality

It is fine to run a dog daycare in most places, however mostly depends on the location and your state laws. Some play requires a Kennel License.
