In the last few years, we have seen numerous natural disasters that have devastated areas of the US. From wildfires and earthquakes to hurricanes and tornadoes, natural disasters can happen anywhere. It pays to make plans regardless of where you are.
Whether it’s a fire, flood, or power outage, dog daycares and kennels need to prepare for anything. Emergency planning prepares you to keep your staff and the pets in your care safe during an emergency.
As people continue to treat their pets like family, pet parents are more willing than ever before to provide their pets with everything they could ever possibly need to be healthy, happy, and live longer.

Check out these ten pet industry trends for 2021.
To tip or not to tip; that is the question.
Tipping in any industry is up to the customer’s discretion. While tipping isn’t expected in the dog daycare industry, it is common and can make someone’s day.
While dog daycare might be a paradise for one dog, it could be a nightmare for another. It’s the kennel and dog daycare attendant’s job to anticipate issues and help the dogs relax and have a good time.
Just like people, dogs can get stressed, anxious, or afraid. But unlike people, dogs can’t just come out and tell you if something is wrong (Dog temperament tests are a good indicator, too!) But the good news is, there are ways to identify a dog’s emotions by watching their behavior and body language.
Check out these dog behavior tips for kennel and dog daycare attendants.
While most pet owners think their furbaby is perfect, dog daycare owners can’t take their word for it.
Most dog daycares offer temperament testing. Temperament testing, also called behavior evaluation, is a vital step to ensure your dog daycare clients and staff’s safety. While not required by law, it is in your best interest as a dog daycare owner to protect yourself, your staff, and your furry guests from harm.
In addition to injury, an accident in your facility could cause financial ramifications and adverse effects on your reputation. Think about it; a dog mom wants to take her furbaby to the safest place possible. If your daycare has a reputation for aggressive dogs and fighting, that dog mom will choose another daycare because she doesn’t want to take the risk. Even if the incident only happened once, it possibly could have been avoided with temperament testing,
Just like us, dogs have moods. We aren’t always friendly, and neither are they. This is why your daycare must require a dog temperament test for every dog that comes under your care.

2020 might be almost over, but the effects of COVID-19 aren’t slowing down.
Everyone has felt the impact of the coronavirus in one way or another. As a pet care business owner, you likely feel frustrated, concerned, and anxious.
You might also feel grateful. In most states, pet care is an essential service. This is great news for pet parents and pet care staff. Pet parents rely on safe pet care businesses like yours to care for their pets when they can’t. And pet care staff rely on a steady income, which is hard to come by for others during the pandemic.
Even though your pet care business can remain open, social distancing conditions and an overall sense of fear directly impact your operations. As ever, your highest priority is the safety of your staff and customers.
In this guide, we’ll discuss pet care business concerns relating to the COVID-19 pandemic and our recommendations for how your business can operate safely.
