I encourage people to interact and share what's their why? 

I have pets myself (in truth I participate in pet rescue and foster) so I'm probably nose blind but even after getting any carpet professionally steam cleaned and after running an ozone machine in the room(s) I'll have an applicant with no pets) walk in and ask if there have been pets in the place before.As previously suggested, make certain your insurance covers certain breeds of pets. 

If money is the only need for partners I suggest a lender - they make much easier partners and you don't need to interact with them on holidays. 

@Dave Foster , Thank you! 

I know a lot of operators that will take care of everything from advertising to cleaning to customer interactions for 20-25 percent, you can message me if you need help finding them although I can imagine they wouldn't be too hard to find.

Thank you, gentlemen, for all your advice @Dave Spooner @Wayne Brooks @Dave Foster

@Tyler Tervooren A few possibilities that interact with each other which may be especially useful if your uncle is one of the ones that want to keep it in the family: 1) local bank, ideally one you/your uncle/family has a positive relationship with which can structure a commercial loan. 2) investigate "gift of equity" since there is a close family relationship such an arrangement is more feasible and likely to pass muster. 3) Uncle loans you a chunk of the down payment and subordinates loan to the bank.

I agree with you that nothing beats person to person interaction to learn the business.

However, there are certain elements of hospitality (human interaction, spontaneity) that delivery apps like Grubhub and Postmates can never replace.

Prior to creating my account here, I interacted with a couple of posts on other websites I can't mention trying to find anyone that can give advice on where to start.
