7. DETAILED IMPLEMENTATION

We are going to sign up as many service providers as possible, so pets' owners can find open and available providers at any time during the day.


8. MARKET POTENTIAL

-Each vet examines an average of 40 pets a day. Each groomer facility takes care of 6-8 pets a day. Each pet hotel shelters about 25-30 pets every 24 hours.
