## Story

Dawn Abbamondi, Director of Brand Development and Marketing at SMB Franchise Advisors, shared in a recent column in Franchise Dictionary Magazine how this new influx of pet owners will strengthen the growth of the pet care franchise industry.

“After all of this, new pet owners (normally known as working adults) will need to go back to work. They will need many new services to support their fur-baby,” said Abbamondi. “Increased demand leads to new customers and often leads to a need for new franchise owners.”

As a result, franchise brands offering doggie day care, pet sitting, dog walking, grooming and veterinary services are primed for major growth.
