Barking Mad bounded into life in the north-west of England in 2000 and has grown with franchised branches year on year. We have been proud full members of the British Franchise Association (bfa) since 2002. We are now the UK’s favourite and largest network of dog home boarding holiday specialists providing the very best in dog sitting care.

Barking Mad was acquired in 2016 by international multi-brand franchisor Franchise Brands. Franchise Brands is also the parent company of established brands ChipsAway, Metro Rod and Ovenclean, which means it has a collective trading history of over 50 years altogether. All Franchise Brand’s child companies are also full members of the bfa. Franchise Brands has notable strengths in areas such as marketing, franchise recruitment and franchise support, and the group’s strategy is to grow organically through expanding their existing brands and through further acquisitions.
