For the love of Alicia's dog; Obi with the ‘Big Brown Paws’
Here is the story behind Big Brown Paws Pet Services Ltd Taupo (BBPS), established on 23 May 2014.
My dream and vision for a Taupo Doggie DayCare & Spa was inspired by the joy and learning experience of owning my dog.
I realised there was the need for a place that could care for and love my dog when I had to go out or away, but somewhere that was not a kennel. I wondered how many other dog owners felt the same way – and can confirm we found a lot of owners in Taupo felt the same.
Using advertising and through word of mouth I started to walk owner’s dogs, offer pet sitting and overnight stays at my house.
My dream was to have an expansive Doggie DayCare facility in Taupo and during Oct 2014. We moved from a house into our new facility at 11 Matai Street Tauhara, Taupo!
Wishing to create an environment where I, as a dog owner, had somewhere to take my dog, I started brainstorming ideas. I knew we had to create somewhere where a dog owner could trust the team who would care for their dog. Somewhere that could provide a home-away-from-home without kennels or cages, while allowing their dog to be part of someone else’s family. This is when Big Brown Paws came to life!
This viable business opportunity benefits the Taupo community and dog owners. The importance of establishing and maintaining customer confidence and trust by ensuring the facilities and services are compliant. That the environment is safe, healthy, caring, informative, social, and managed by trained and competent staff, became our key goal.
