Dog Daycare Start Up Cost and Initial Investment

What are the Start Up costs to launch a Dog Daycare business from ground zero?

The real answer to that question is that it depends on you and what your long range goals are. Generally speaking, if you opt for a bare bones operation skipping some of the bells, whistles, and frills that a successful Dog Daycare should have, then you may in fact turn a profit faster, but the price that you are able to charge for your services will be lower thus limiting the true profit potential of your Dog Daycare business. This will also increase maintenance and upkeep costs, as well the facility will acquire that run down look much faster than it should and customers will migrate elsewhere. If, on the other hand, you spend a little more in putting together a well designed facility that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing, then the prices that can be charged for services will increase while maintenance and upkeep costs decrease, increasing the long range profit of the facility.

The Local Economy will affect your plans

There are geographic factors to consider as well e.g. the cost of labor and materials in your specific area, the median age and income of your local population, industry competition, the economic situation of your primary customer base, the number of people that commute to work etc. All these are factors that will affect not only the start-up costs but also the end price that you are able to charge for your services once your business is in operation. In simpler terms if you over build your facility, forcing you to charge more to cover expenses in an area that is not economically suited to handle it, you are paving a road toward disaster. You may CHARGE any price you like, but customers will only PAY what the market will bear.
