About this Business

The business has been operating since 2023 and currently employs seven people.

The assets located within the facility are included in the sale, along with approximately $3,000 in inventory.

About Zoomin Groomin
Zoomin Groomin is a mobile pet grooming franchise. A groomer drives a fully equipped van to the customer’s driveway and works one-on-one with each dog or cat, with no cages or kennels, using plant-based products and a water-efficient bathing system. Services cover full grooms, baths, nail trims and deshedding, and regular clients rebook every four to six weeks.
The business is home-based, with no storefront or lease. Each franchisee holds a protected territory of roughly 125,000 to 165,000 residents and adds vans as demand builds, usually with one or two groomers per van. Owners are not expected to groom; the franchisor describes an executive-management model that can be run full-time or semi-absentee with a manager.
Founded in 2004, the brand has been franchised in its current form since 2021 by Loyalty Brands, the Virginia Beach group led by John T. Hewitt, founder of Jackson Hewitt and Liberty Tax. Its sister pet brands include Cooper’s Scoopers and Hike Doggie. Josh Fitzgerald, an early franchisee who still owns units, became CEO in 2025. The network has expanded quickly across the US since 2023, so many vans are still in their first years of trading.
Franchisee Support
Initial training combines 4 hours of prerequisite virtual learning with 3 days of classroom instruction (24 hours) at Loyalty Brands' Virginia Beach headquarters, plus on-the-job training as needed. Franchisees then join weekly operations and support calls, with central help on marketing, technology and HR. Scheduling, routing, payments and client records run through an iPad-based CRM, online booking runs on MoeGo, and automated rebooking and lapse-recovery messages support retention. Resale buyers should confirm what training incoming owners and retained groomers receive, and that client records and booking history transfer with the sale.
Brand Accolades & Awards
Zoomin Groomin entered Entrepreneur's Franchise 500 at #280 in 2025 and rose to #233 in 2026. Entrepreneur also ranked it #31 among Fastest-Growing Franchises in 2025 (the highest-placed pet brand) and #37 in 2026, #17 among Top Franchises for Less Than $100,000 in 2026 and #138 among Top Franchises for Veterans in 2025. It appeared in Franchise Direct's Top 100 for 2024 and is an International Franchise Association member. For resale buyers, these brand-level signals sit alongside a unit's own Google reviews, referral sources and the daily visibility of its vans.
Industry / Market
US pet industry spending reached $158 billion in 2025 and is projected at $165 billion for 2026, with 53% of households (71 million) owning a dog, according to the American Pet Products Association. Grand View Research expects the US pet grooming services market to reach $2.99 billion by 2030, growing 6.7% a year from 2025, and names at-home and mobile services among the delivery options adding convenience. Mobile grooming is still largely independent-led. For resale buyers, local dog density, household income and drive time between stops shape what a territory can support.
Ideal Owner
Grooming skill is not required or expected: owners hire professional groomers and run the business. The role is staffing-led and marketing-led, and suits people comfortable recruiting and keeping skilled employees, managing schedules and routes, and serving customers who treat pets as family. The franchisor targets career changers, family teams and investors planning several vans, and working groomers who want their own business also fit. Semi-absentee ownership is presented as an option once a manager is in place, though many owners start full-time. Patience with a growth path that depends on hiring helps.
