Owning a franchise gives me freedom to enjoy working my own hours and bathing and playing with the dogs is such a joy. The support group we have with Aussie Pooch is second to none.

Carol Garratty - Ascot, WA

My business has allowed me great flexibility and worked wonderfully around a growing family. With a support network second to none and an operating system which is proven to work, my business has grown into a rewarding asset fulfilling my needs both personally and financially. The ability to run my own business knowing that the hard work I put in comes straight back to me. I love my outdoor office, the relationships built with my clients and the bond formed with the dogs.
