Entrepreneur: A Franchisee Who’s Doggone Glad She Found a Business She Could “Wuv”

Growing a young franchise system is no small feat. For Larisa Citsay, franchisee K-9 Resorts Daycare & Luxury Hotel, that made this franchise top dog.

"K-9 Resorts is also a younger franchise. I was able to open in the territory that I wanted because of that, and I am very confident that it will be successful," said Citsay in a recent story by Entrepreneur Magazine. "I thought it would be best to get in early and help them grow. The franchisors, Jason and Steven Parker, have seen great success, both as businessmen and pet lovers like us."

The top-rated dog boarding facility in New Jersey, K-9 Resorts has been featured on a number of national media outlets. The brand’s founders have over 10 years’ experience in the pet industry, but was this impressive amount of acclaim enough for someone to purchase the business?

"Of course, do your research and educate yourself about the particular franchise, but also be passionate,” said Citsay in the same article. "If you are passionate, you will be committed, and thus successful."

Passion ultimately led Citsay toward K-9 Resorts with a clear direction on what she was looking for in a business. A true dog lover at heart, she was able to find a mix of general interest and business savvy to continue to help the K-9 Resorts franchise ascend to franchise greatness.
