- Facilities & Assets
- The business runs from a clean, well-equipped facility with indoor play areas, outdoor yards, and spaces for boarding, grooming, and training.
Sale includes FF&E (kennels, play structures, grooming stations, cleaning systems, office equipment), a booking/management platform, and a company van for pet transport.
This turnkey setup lets the new owner take over and operate immediately with no major additional investment. - Market Outlook / Competition
- With over a decade of proven success, the business serves a growing pet care market driven by rising pet ownership and demand for daycare and boarding. Play and Stay’s long-standing reputation for personalized care and reliability provides a strong edge over smaller operators and home-based services. Backed by an established customer base and strong word-of-mouth referrals, the business is well positioned to continue capturing market share.
- Opportunities for Growth
- Play and Stay has strong potential for further growth. Opportunities include expanding grooming and training services, adding retail sales of pet products, or offering pickup and drop-off with the company van. With targeted digital marketing and community partnerships, the business could increase customer acquisition and retention. The facility has capacity to handle more dogs, allowing a new owner to scale revenue without major additional investment.
