Industry Trends Driving Growth:
The global pet grooming services market is projected to grow from approximately $7.9 billion in 2024 to $8.46 billion in 2025, an expansion rate of over 7% annually. The U.S. segment alone stood at $2.06 billion in 2024 and is expected to reach nearly $3 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of about 6.7%

Fueled by pet humanization: Today’s pet owners treat pets as family members, spurring demand for premium and specialized spa treatments, natural products, and creative grooming options. This emotional bond is a powerful growth engine.

This is an ideal opportunity for a hands-on groomer or business-minded operator looking for steady income and growth potential in a recession-resistant industry. The seller is pursuing a new venture and will provide up to 30 days of training and other support.
