About the business
An established pet boarding and cattery operation in Melbourne, Victoria. It has been trading since 1980 for dog and cat owners needing boarding. It is in a country setting in Bulla, VIC, 10 to 15 minutes from Melbourne Airport, on 7 acres. The main residence has 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and a renovated modern kitchen. It operates under an old permit with no restrictions on the number of dogs. The sale includes full training, handover and supportive staff. The reason given for the sale is that the current owners are retiring. The broker reports that it can be fully managed by staff without an owner residing at the property, and that the current admin/all-rounder employee is asking to become a full time manager.
