If you are a commercial property owner or manager you know that a big down side with pets is there natural eliminations can lead to damage and incontinences for other tenants.
None of us wants to find unexpected surprises when we run across the grass. So what can you do as a manager of the property.
You can start with rules that can contain where the problems will be or that the owner or person walking the animal needs to police their own deposits. But ongoing education works better that just having rules.
The education needs to go beyond just signs. While the signs can show the open area that is set aside or list the “pick-up” rules. But you can hold meetings that are mandatory for your pet owners.
Flyers with an educational message about what is best for the animal and the neighbors will do more than just rules, rules and more rules. Many times it is a lack of time or just plain old poor planning that leads to a shortcut that violates the rules. These “violations” can be costly for the property.
Having a pet area can be likened to make an area for smokers to accommodate their needs. The real world relationship is that there are more pet owners in the population than there are smokers. The trend is fewer smokers and more pet owners. Pet ownership is shown to be a health benefit and you can’t say the same for smoking.
Most pet owners are very responsible people. And like their dogs even less than perfect owners can be retrained if you have the right educational programs.
It doesn’t matter to us whether you want lush lawns, desert landscaping or some type of landscaping in between, we can help. To find out how give us a call at 623-848-8277.
