Pets Are Big Business :: Tampa, FL
June 30, 2016
Pets are B-I-G Business! If you are a pet-owner, you have probably seen or heard of numerous pet-related businesses in your area. In addition to pet stores and veterinary offices, pet-centered businesses are gaining in popularity. To verify this information, just visit your local pet store or WalMart and check out the pet section. The toys are sophisticated, the outfits and accessories are adorable and the beds are posh. Looking for a business idea? Consider a pet-centered business such as pet photography, dog walkers, pet sitting, gourmet pet treats, obedience training, dog toys and apparel or even (really!) a pooper-scooper service.
Pet Resorts are now big business. And they aren’t just about boarding pets overnight. The emphasis is on the Day Care and Resort dimension of pet care – lavish, complex floor plans filled with furniture for the dogs to rest on, toys to occupy them, wide-open spaces for them to run and play, pools and water sprayers to keep them cool and individual rooms for restful naps. If you are a pet-owner, you probably know of a Doggie Day Care Center in your area.
It’s a great business model for pet lovers…and in the DINK (dual income, no kids) population, there is a high percentage of pet owners who spoil their pets as though they were kids. But beware – this is a discerning crowd and it’s absolutely critical for Pet Resorts to look neat and clean at all times. How to keep your Pet Resort looking perfect all the time? Artificial grass by AlternaScapes, of course!
First and foremost, dogs LOVE playing on EasyTurf artificial grass and they take to it just as naturally as they do to live grass. Dogs that are normally sensitive to grass pollen allergies enjoy our artificial grass allergen-free advantage. An even better advantage to ALL dogs is that our artificial grass eliminates an insect environment (fleas, ticks, fire ants, etc.).
Pet facililty owners love our artificial grass because it keeps the dogs and their facilities cleaner. This saves a LOT of time (for facility staff) which now can be spent on revenue producing measures, rather than constant cleaning.
Your clients will also be happy that their dogs are playing on a safer and cleaner surface. Dogs will go home clean (or cleaner) than they arrived thus keeping your clients cars and homes free from dirt (something they will greatly appreciate).

Having AlternaScapes install EasyTurf artificial grass creates a true marketing advantage for your facility and provides an excellent return on your investment (ROI). Contact us today to find out more about artificial grass for YOUR facility, call 1-800-445-2944.
