OverviewPets Are Inn is an alternative for boarding family pets when their owners are away for either vacation or business. Pets vacation in private homes thereby providing a loving home environment. "Host Families", i.e. caregivers, are carefully selected. Pets Are Inn coordinates travel schedules and provides round-trip pickup and delivery. Both pet and owner prefer the worry free services provided.
Products & ServicesThe Pets Are Inn concept was founded in 1982 by a couple in Minneapolis, Minnesota. When vacationing, the family pet, Chopin (who was disguised as a dog), did not do well in a kennel facility. On subsequent trips, they solicited friends, relatives or neighbors to care for Chopin. However, they were uncomfortable with this arrangement.
They had inadvertently stumbled upon an ideal alternative to kennel boarding. Namely, soliciting a "Host Family" to care for their furry family member while they were away. This humane alternative addressed equally the pet's physical and emotional needs and the family's peace of mind. Thus, Pets Are Inn was born as the "#1 Alternative for Boarding Your Pet While You're Away" with "All the Comforts of Home." Now, finding a loving family to care for your pet is not solely dependent upon having relatives or friends available since Pets Are Inn provides lodging for customer's pets in private homes. Pet lovers endorsed Pets Are Inn and its values! In 1986, the business began expanding through franchising. Training & Support Lodging during training is included in the franchise fee. You are responsible for your travel and meals. Materials, supplies, and the Pets Are Inn Operations Manual are furnished at no charge. After signing the franchise agreement, you will be scheduled for a one-day Franklin Quest Time Management Seminar in your area. You will also receive a count down to training manual.
