About the Opportunity
This franchise is including a branded van and established client base generating a reliable income!
Mad Dogs and Englishmen Brisbane is a mobile dog walking & doggy day care business with an ongoing client base consisting of 40+ clients with an annual turnover of approximately $100,000. 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 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.

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.
