Is Overstaffing Quietly Draining Your Dog Daycare Profits – While Your Team Burns Out?

 If labor costs keep rising and scheduling feels more like guesswork than strategy, you’re not alone. Most pet care businesses don’t have the right tools to track productivity — and as a result, profits slip away unnoticed.

My wife Jenn and I have grown our business to six thriving facilities, and we’ve faced every labor challenge along the way — unpredictable schedules, rising costs, and the balancing act of keeping both clients and staff happy.

In our industry labor is our biggest variable cost — it’s also our biggest opportunity for improvement.

We got tired of operating without a clearly defined labor management system.  It sometimes felt like guessing.  We’d hit the mark some days but other times labor would be way off. 

We needed a way to set clear expectations for managers and a way for them to know that they were meeting those expectations.

That’s why we built the system that became Labor Lens™

Once we started using it consistently we unlocked mid six figure savings across our locations without cutting corners, annoying staff or losing quality.

Now, we help other pet care businesses to the same…
