With much excitement, a new doggie daycare opens in Island Park, NY. This is the 5th Location on the South Shore opening with the Local Pet Care Franchise, Hounds Town USA.
Four years ago when Hounds Town Island Park owner Lauren Duffy first stumbled upon doggie daycare Hounds Town USA, she never imagined she would open her own location. She was first introduced to the pet care franchise as a customer, bringing her dog Willy to the Farmingdale location for several years while she worked in pharmaceutical sales. Lauren and Willy became hooked on the fully interactive doggie daycare! “Willy loves his friends at Hounds Town Farmingdale!” says Lauren. “Willy has been boarding at Hounds Town for three years, and loves every minute of his visits,” Lauren explains.
Purchasing a Doggie Daycare
Fast forward to 2016, when her and her partner Jimmy began to seriously think about career changes and an investment in the booming pet care industry. After searching for the perfect location in the Mineola area, the opportunity to purchase an existing doggie daycare business in Island Park presented itself. Several months of renovations later, Hounds Town – Island Park opened its doors to hundreds of south shore customers in need of reliable and honest pet care, becoming the pet care franchise’s 5th location.
