Dog Daycare, Boarding Franchise Hounds Town USA Opens First Location in Jacksonville

Jacksonville pets are in for a treat with a unique pet care experience coming to town — Hounds Town USA, the daycare and boarding concept where everything they do is for the dogs, recently announced the opening of its newest location in Jacksonville. Situated 15 minutes away from Jacksonville Beach at 8595 Beach Blvd Suite 301, the new Hounds Town location will be the go-to spot for trusted pet care across the area. Owned and operated by husband-wife duo Roy Stoner and Nancy Yamamoto, the new location will officially open on January 27.

“With three dogs ourselves, Nancy and I are extremely passionate about pet care and our beloved companions,” said Roy Stoner. “The corporate team has been extremely helpful and supportive, making the opening process seamless. Joining Hounds Town was the natural choice for us, and we’ve had a great experience thus far. We can’t wait to start building relationships with pets and their owners throughout Jacksonville.”

With vast professional experience ranging from careers in business management to nutritional development, the duo is well-prepped to operate their Hounds Town location. Nancy and Roy Stoner, both Jacksonville residents, realized a need for interactive pet care in the area and are eager to connect with their community. Their location will be the first Hounds Town in Jacksonville and will serve pets and their owners across the southeast area of the city.

“When we met Roy and Nancy, we knew they were the right fit for our brand.  They not only have an amazing connection to our mission, but their exuberance for their community is also infectious.  We are excited to see Hounds Town Jacksonville open, and for Roy and Nancy to realize their dream of running their own business,” said Jackie Bondanza, CEO and co-founder of Hounds Town.
