Opportunities abound to work with Pets.

According to some industry sources, the pet industry in the US is worth in excess of $80bn.

And America is not alone, in Australia households are thought to own more than eight million pets including over four million dogs and over three million cats.

The scope of the industry is huge, and the opportunities for anyone with a good understanding of pets, is expanding further every year.

Just some of the careers available working with cats - 

  • Retail and Manufacturing
  • Cat Grooming
  • Cat Breeding Industry
  • Professional Training and Handling
  • Day Care or Boarding
  • Cat Rehoming Centre or Fostering
  • Therapy Pets
  • Health Care
  • Therapy for Cats
  • Funeral or Memorial Service

A good course will grow your understanding of pets and how to care for them

-this course certainly does that

  • Different Breeds of Dogs

The nature of this industry has changed

The way in which the work is done has changed too; and will most likely continue changing. 

People are increasingly looking for something new as well - new types of pets, new pet products, new pet services. For some people, pets are a very important part of their lives, and pets can become virtually "substitute children". There is nothing too good for their pets, and no expense they would not incur on their pets.

The good news for anyone with a knowledge of pet care and an awareness of the industry is that this is a vibrant, growth industry that is constantly  presenting new exciting opportunities to build a business or career.

  • Develop a career or business with pets: in breeding and supplying pets, or supplying services or products to pet owners.
