Pets have become an integral part of our lives. We live in a fragmented and disconnected world where Politics is ugly, religion is unfortunate, the economy is stressful, and relationships are filled with insecurity. What’s one thing that we have in our lives that we can rely on? A dog, a cat, a pet-loving us unconditionally, every day, faithfully and inspiring us in their own way.
Well, over the period, people have realized the value and importance of their pets and now there is a startup that are making pet ownership easier. Here is a list of 5 innovative startups that are a delight for every animal lover.
1. Rent the Chicken.
Imagine a countryside farm where horses run wild, the chickens lay eggs and the birds chirp in harmony outside your window which frames the prepossessing scenery perfectly. Well, having farm fresh eggs at your disposal and managing a farm life might be appealing to some but not everyone is skilled enough to look after hens. Here’s when Rent the Chicken comes to the rescue. Rent the Chicken rents you with all the supplies you need to keep hens. This includes two to four egg-laying hens, portable chicken coop, 40-90 kgs of feed which is 100% organic, food and water dishes and a guide on how to keep the hens. According to the company’s website, the eggs have ⅓ less cholesterol, ¼ less saturated fats, and 2 times more omega 3 fatty acids than the regular store eggs. Rent season starts from May to November which is the period when chickens lay the most eggs. They deliver the supplies and hens in the USA and Canada.
2. Fido to Go.
Fido to go is unique food truck that caters to dogs and cats in the city of Chicago and San Diego. They serve handmade cookies and frozen yogurt for your pets and the ingredients are gluten free, corn free, soy free, sugar-free with no preservatives or additives. The idea first struck to Donna Santucci, founder and owner of Fido to Go, when she started making wholesome and gluten-free treats for her dog Maddie. The treats soon became a hit amongst family and friends and so Donna decided to amalgamate her knowledge of pet grooming and healthy treats to start a food truck. Now, this gourmet truck is a favorite of many dogs and feline friends in the region.
3. We Rent Goats.
As the name suggests, they rent goats to remove weeds and unwanted plants from fields, open spaces, pastures, ravines, embankments. Why only goats? If you own a ranch or a farm you know how tedious it is to monitor and control unwanted grass and weed that spreads everywhere. Cows and sheep don’t eat most of the weed while some they simply can’t digest. Machines have a limited range and can’t clear weed from every nook and corner. As for herbicides, they leave unwanted chemicals and are expensive, but goats eat just about anything in minutes. The employees come and monitor the area that needs to clear. Once the property is measured and surveyed, they estimate the number of goats that will be required. Next, they deliver the goats and everything they will need for the day including water troughs and nutritional supplements. The employees monitor the goats and fence the property if required. 100 goats eat around half an acre of land in a day depending upon the vegetation.
4. Rover
Rover is an online community service that connects pet owners with around 20,000 pet sitters in North America to ” Pet sit” your pooch while you are away.
