Mobile Dog Wash Franchise

For entrepreneurial mum, Christine Taylor, the phrase ‘Never work with animals or children’ falls on deaf ears. Her global business success story Aussie Pooch Mobile would not have got past square one had she given any credence to the belief.

“To be successful first you have to fall in love with what you do”

Chris Taylor is the Managing Director and founder of Aussie Pooch Mobile. Her career began when she started an innovative dog clipping and grooming service in 1985 when she was just 16 years of age. 

A few years later Chris expanded this service to include mobile hydrobathing units travelling direct to customer’s homes. The company was launched as a single mobile hydrobath in 1990, as demand increased the business rapidly grew.

After some experimentation, a huge amount of courage, a feasibility study and the full support of her husband, Chris created and launched the Aussie Pooch Mobile Pty Ltd in 1991. This is where her journey within the franchise industry began.

The Aussie Pooch Mobile was the first franchise system of its kind and is the largest dog wash and care company franchised in the world! The company also operates under the name

`The Pooch Mobile’ with Master Franchisees in United States, United Kingdom, Malaysia, New Zealand, New Caledonia with now over 175 operators worldwide.

The company, its Franchisees and the founder have been recognised by industry bodies many times over for their successes throughout the years. 2005 was a winning year for Chris Taylor with her taking out the coveted Franchise Council of Australia’s Woman in Franchising Award.
