Hounds Town USA

Hounds Town USA is a hospitality-driven pet care franchise that’s redefining dog daycare through simplicity, structure, and heart. Founded by a former NYPD K-9 Unit Commander, our proprietary dog management system—Houndology™—creates safer, low-stress playgroups that result in better care and stronger unit economics. Franchisees aren’t just opening a daycare—they’re stepping into a high-touch, community-based business with low overhead, full transparency, and hands-on guidance. It’s not about trends. It’s about dogs being dogs—and owners building something that stands the test of time.
