Description
in 34 states. The dog grooming and accessories industry has been growing at above average rates of
7.25% steadily, the Quarry Lake location in Pikesville opened in May 2025 and is growing much faster
than that. The only reason this new franchise is being offered for sale, is due to the owners wishing to
separate from each other personally. Owners purchased for the purpose of passively owned
investment, as both owners have regular employment elsewhere. Both owners have been to corporate
training, but only one owner is active with decision making and managing the full-time manager.
Most recent monthly revenue is $43k, and prior months were $42k, $35k, $32k, $36k. Business has
capacity to grow another 50% in the current location. Approximately 25% of revenue comes from
product with 50% margins and the other 75% is grooming services. Currently there are 4 ft groomers
and payroll is about $10k per month plus tips. Rent $4,650 with long term lease in place and options for
renewals. After 7% royalty and 2% marketing fee and all other expenses the owners expect $10k
income per month to be normal.
All the start-up fees for this franchise were $393k including the permits, licenses, build-out of the
location, furniture, fixtures, and equipment, $75k franchise fee ($15k for a transfer), grand opening
marketing, HR to hire 5 employees.

The seller is willing to provide two weeks of transition training at no additional cost and is open to providing additional consulting under mutually agreed terms. Seller financing may also be considered for a qualified buyer.

Pet Grooming Salon in Cuyahoga County Priced at 2.4x Earnings
$ 184,900
Asking $184,900 with $76,129 in Seller Discretionary Earnings on $417,452 in Annual Revenue. Revenue reached $417,452 in the twelve months ended June 30, 2026, the fourth consecutive annual increase from $387,506 in 2023. Gross margin held above 97% in every one of those periods as grooming supplies run 2.2% of revenue. The salon performs full grooms, bath and brush service, nail trims, ear cleaning, de-shedding, and specialty breed cuts, all by appointment. Doodle breeds make up at least 50% of the appointment book, a coat type that requires grooming on a 4 to 6 week cycle rather than an occasional visit. Roughly 70% of clients schedule their next appointment at checkout, which fills the calendar 4 to 6 weeks forward. Service is paid in full at the time of service through, so the business carries zero accounts receivable. Advertising and website spend totaled $1,196 over the trailing twelve months, 0.3% of revenue, and two standing referral sources are in place with a natural pet store and a veterinary clinic. The owner performs no grooming, covers reception two to four days per week, and handles ordering, payroll, and weekly reporting. Owner compensation carried on the books is $36,000, and staff wages run 57% to 58% of revenue. The buyer acquires $81,708 in original cost fixed assets, made up of $43,595 in leasehold improvements recently completed and $38,113 in grooming equipment. Client records, appointment history, the business name, the phone number, the website, and all vendor accounts transfer at closing. First half 2026 revenue of $208,056 ran 6.3% ahead of the same period in 2025 while staff wages came in $491 below the prior year, lifting half-year net income from $15,430 to $24,094. Trailing twelve month seller discretionary earnings of $76,129 recovered $15,244 from the 2025 figure of $60,885. No license, permit, or certification is required to groom pets in Ohio. Key Highlights Asking $184,900 against trailing twelve month revenue of $417,452 and seller discretionary earnings of $76,129, a 2.4x multiple Over 15 years of operating history Leased suite with 3 years remaining and a renewal option, annual rent of $16,500, landlord will issue a new lease to a buyer who passes a credit check Revenue increased in every measured period, up 7.7% from $387,506 in 2023, with first half 2026 running 6.3% ahead of first half 2025 Approximately 70% of clients rebook at checkout on a 4 to 6 week service cycle Financials Summary Item Figure Annual Revenue (TTM 6/30/2026) $417,452 Seller Discretionary Earnings (TTM 6/30/2026) $76,129 Asking Price $184,900 Earnings Multiple 2.4x trailing twelve month SDE Gross Margin (TTM) 97.8% Revenue 2023 $387,506 Revenue 2024 $394,223 Revenue 2025 $405,113 SDE 2023 $66,961 SDE 2024 $81,826 SDE 2025 $60,885 Owner Compensation Added Back (TTM) $36,000, per filed returns and payroll records Fixed Assets Conveyed (original cost) $81,708, including $43,595 in leasehold improvements and $38,113 in grooming equipment Inventory Grooming supplies only, at 2.2% of revenue, with normal working stock conveyed at closing Transaction Details Asset purchase at $184,900 6 full-time and 2 part-time employees remain after closing, including the office manager Leased premises with 3 years remaining and a renewal option. The landlord will allow a buyer to sign a new lease subject to a credit check. Annual rent is $16,500 The owner performs no grooming, covers reception two to four days per week, and handles ordering, payroll, and weekly reporting Ideal Buyer Profile This fits an owner operator or a first-time buyer who wants a staffed service business rather than a job behind a grooming table. No grooming license, certification, or trade skill is required in Ohio, and 6 full-time groomers are already in place, so the work is scheduling, hiring, vendor management, and local marketing. Pricing is reset only when supply costs rise. A 5% increase across the service menu adds approximately $20,900 in annual revenue, and with grooming supplies at 2.2% of revenue nearly all of it reaches earnings. Cost of goods sold at 2.2% of revenue shows almost no product resale. The salon already buys shampoo and tools from a wholesale account held for 8 years, so a retail rack in the existing reception area adds a revenue line with a small first inventory order. Grooming classes were introduced recently and are taught by staff groomers in the existing grooming room, with participants paying per class. Class capacity uses hours the salon already pays rent and utilities on, and requires no equipment beyond what is installed. Website and advertising spend was $1,196 over the trailing twelve months. Online self-scheduling runs on a monthly software fee, cuts no-show rates, and removes front-desk labor from the two to four reception days the owner currently covers. Rent, utilities, and insurance total $30,383 annually and do not vary with hours of operation. Groomers work four days a week, so 8 stations sit idle on the fifth day and on evenings that the fixed cost base already covers. https://tworld.com/locations/Ohio/clevelandmetro/listings/Pet-Grooming-Salon-in-Cuyahoga-County-Priced-at-2-4x-Earnings
