If the regulator can point to Objective Official Viewpoint-Neutral Regulatory Requirements, then they can just shut you down. If, instead, it’s up to the regulator’s judgement whether you were taking care of your animals, well, have fun in court!

They invest a lot of time training them, and they’re always treated as members of the family so they can respond well to handling, being pet by kids, etc. I can’t imagine what problem “licensing” would solve. These are basically pets.
