Skip the "build-out" headaches and step into a high-octane revenue engine. This isn't just a grooming shop; it’s a systemized powerhouse projected to hit $750K–$800K in 2026 with a clear, zero-CAPEX path to $1M+. Featuring a $126 average ticket, a 2025 growth rate of 131%, and an AI-driven booking ecosystem, this business offers a rare "plug-and-play" opportunity for a semi-absentee investor or an owner-operator ready to scale.
While most grooming businesses struggle with scheduling chaos and staffing, this business thrives on precision. Boasting a massive database of thousands of repeat customers, the facility grew by a staggering 131% in 2025 and is already up 10% in the first two months of 2026.
The heavy lifting is done: the brand is established, the systems are automated, and the demand is so high that clients are pre-booking 4–6 weeks in advance.
Why This Business Outperforms the Market:
Built-In Scalability: The facility is fully built out with immediate floor space for 2 additional groomers. You can scale to $1M in revenue without spending a dime on construction or new equipment.
The "AI Edge": Say goodbye to missed calls and booking errors. The business utilizes cutting-edge AI and a custom app to automate scheduling, client communication, and reminders, ensuring a seamless 5-star experience.
Strong Retail & High Ticket: With an average ticket of $126—significantly higher than industry averages—and a robust retail program, the profit margins are protected and diversified.
Franchise-Ready Infrastructure: This isn't a one-off shop. The sale includes a corporate-designed multi-location layout and branding package, making this the perfect "Model Unit" for a regional or national roll-up.
Operational Flexibility:
Semi-Absentee (10-15 hrs/week): Perfect for the professional investor. A full front-desk staff and established SOPs allow you to focus on growth, not clippers.
Owner-Operator (Groomer): For a buyer who wants to be on the floor, the SDE (Seller's Discretionary Earnings) increases exponentially by capturing production labor.
Financial Snapshot:
Projected 2026 Revenue: $750,000 – $800,000
Path to $1M: Immediate capacity for 1.5 more groomers to meet existing waitlist demand.
Projected SDE (Full Staff): ~$214,000 (once at full capacity by adding 1 full time and a part time groomer).
