About Pets Are Inn

These "Host Families" take your pet(s) into their home and give them the personal attention they are used to ... lots of love, petting, playing, walking, a warm comfortable place to sleep, and of course, the food you provide, served when and the way your pet likes it.

The estimated total initial investment for your first Pets Are Inn business ranges from $79,950 to $105,150, including $74,000 to $75,000 you must pay the Franchisor.
