All American Pet Resorts (AAPR) is a premier pet care franchise offering upscale dog daycare, boarding, and grooming services across the United States. The brand's origins trace back to 1972 when founders Art and Yolanda Rimbold, seeking quality accommodations for their own dogs, established a pet care facility in Troy, Michigan.
Recognizing a broader demand for high-quality pet care, the company began franchising in 2005. Today, AAPR is headquartered in Novi, Michigan, and has expanded its presence with multiple franchise locations nationwide.
AAPR distinguishes itself in the competitive pet care industry through its commitment to providing a luxury resort experience for pets.
Unlike traditional boarding facilities, AAPR offers 24/7 in-person supervised care, cageless and crate-free accommodations, and amenities such as unlimited webcam access for pet parents. The facilities are designed to be safe, secure, and sanitary, ensuring pets receive personalized attention in a comfortable environment.

All American Pet Resorts LLC provides a structured training program to prepare franchisees for operating their pet care businesses effectively. The training includes the following key programs:
Initial Training Program This program is mandatory for the franchisee or, if the franchisee is a business entity, the Designated Business Manager and one additional person. It consists of up to 20 days of training conducted in phases, covering core operational aspects like pet care procedures, customer service, and business management.
Onsite Practical Training During the design and development phase of the resort, the franchisee or a representative must spend at least one working day at an existing All American Pet Resorts location. This practical exposure helps understand the architectural and operational standards required for setting up the new facility.
Ongoing Training and Updates As new services and market demands evolve, All American Pet Resorts will offer additional training modules. Franchisees are responsible for travel and related expenses but benefit from continuous learning to keep their business aligned with updated practices and service standards.
Territory Protection
All American Pet Resorts LLC grants franchisees a defined territory, determined based on factors like population density, zip codes, competition, and local demographics. This Territory is established after the franchise location is approved and is intended to support the franchisee’s business growth.
The franchisor has sole discretion in setting the exact boundaries and must approve any changes to the territory or business location. However, All American Pet Resorts does not provide exclusive territory protection.
Franchisees may face competition from other franchisees, company-owned outlets, or other distribution channels controlled by the franchisor. While only one franchise will be granted per Territory, the franchisor reserves the right to operate and expand through various channels within or near the same area.
