Attention pet business owners

[CurlyDoodle]

Hi All!

I'm Brigid, owner of Curly Doodle Dog & Sia Meeser Cat Grooming. I have been in the pet service business all my life including animal shelters, boarding facilities, and pet sitting. I opened my grooming shop going on three years ago, and as soon as things got going I signed up for Square. I'm glad I did for many reasons, including a legacy record should I want to franchise or sell the business in future. I have seen similar businesses fail in part due to old-fashioned or poor record keeping. 

I would love to connect with other pet business owners here. I see many restaurants, retail shops, and artisans. Where are my pet peeps? 🐾

If you are technical, I have some snippets in my signature I use to help with my data management - I manage a catalog of 2800 pet items across 15 or so vendors.

Hi! Yes, we are a cat cafe, so full service local coffee shop with a room of adoptable cats through a local rescue partner ❤️

Neat! Please share the link to your cat cafe 😸.

👋 Hi @CurlyDoodle,

I'm not in the pet business, I'm just a lady who works at Square 😆 but I did come across a discussion today with a community member who makes all natural dog treats. Tagging you here, @katsmeowdgtreat so you might find some of your pet people!

That is a great introduction Brigid. It is nice to see pet professionals sharing their experience. Using Square for record keeping is a smart choice. I also work in the pet care business and would like to connect with others in this field.
