Bark & Mane Mobile Pet Grooming - Franchise

Overview

Bark & Mane has established itself as a leading force in the mobile pet grooming industry, with more than 450 mobile grooming units serving customers across the country. As the nation’s largest network of AKC S.A.F.E. certified groomers, the brand is recognized for its commitment to exceptional safety standards, professional service, and high-quality pet care. Franchise owners benefit from advanced, purpose-built technology designed to simplify daily operations, enhance customer experience, and support business growth through streamlined scheduling, automated marketing tools, upselling capabilities, and client retention features.

The brand’s distinctive, pet-centered model is a key differentiator in the marketplace. Groomers provide individualized, cage-free appointments without kennel dryers or overlapping visits, creating a calmer, more personalized experience for pets and their owners. This elevated service approach helps foster long-term customer relationships, strong brand loyalty, and recurring revenue opportunities for franchisees.
