Am I Allowed to Have Pets?
Most states allow home bakery owners to have pets on the premises. However, it is important for home bakers to ensure that their pets do not come into contact with the food they are preparing or baking. This means that pets should not be allowed in the kitchen or any other areas where food is being prepared or stored. It is also important to maintain good hygiene practices, such as washing hands frequently and keeping surfaces clean, to prevent the spread of any potential contaminants.
Please note that some jurisdictions have regulations regarding pets in food preparation areas with some areas prohibiting pets being on the premises in which a home baker is licensed and selling food.
