About the Opportunity
This franchise is big enough to be split and sold as two separate franchises, each including a van and established client base generating a reliable income!
Mad Dogs and Englishmen Inner West is a mobile dog walking & doggy day care business with an ongoing client base consisting of 200+ clients with an annual turnover of $330,000. This business allows you to spend your days walking dogs at parks and beaches away from being stuck in an office!
The business offers two main services:
- Single group walks of up to four dogs at a time
- Doggy Day Care - the same structure as single group walks but the dogs under this service go out on multiple walks in a row.
This sale offer includes three modern vans ready for work.
This is a wonderful opportunity for someone that loves and understands dogs, has business skills and wants to own a profitable and established business from day one.

Mad Dogs & Englishmen Head Office supports your business with a dedicated marketing team. Our team expertly manages our AdWords budgets for SEO, SEM, and social media. Additionally, our in-house graphic designer creates eye-catching promotional materials for us to use. We have had numerous appearences on TV and radio too enhancing our brand! You may even choose to use our "Pop-Up Stall" at your local shopping centre to get things moving!
Training provided
If you decide to join our team, you would then receive a day of training on the admin side of the business at Mad Dogs & Englishmen HQ, where we will set up all you need to get the business running properly. We have a training manual which we will spend the day working through to make sure you are ready to go. Once completed you would spend a day with a manager, before shadowing the franchisee so you can meet all the dogs and clients before taking over the business yourself!

History
In 2006 husband and wife team, James & Catherine moved from England and decided to try walking dogs for a living! They started off posting a few hand drawn adverts on lamp posts, and speaking to people at the parks. They started to get busy quickly as nobody else was doing what they were doing - and as they got busier, they decided to not run the business as a hobby, but as a proper professional business. We are currently Australia’s largest Dog Walking business with over 30 franchises nationwide.
