Pet grooming is an incredibly important type of preventative healthcare for pets. Bathing, hair cutting, nail clipping, ears and eyes cleaning, teeth brushing, flea and tick treatment, etc. are all hygienic care services that can significantly impact the wellness of a pet. As pet parents become more aware of the preventative healthcare benefits of pet grooming as well as the many advantages that mobile pet grooming provides, they will increasingly seek out pet groomers best capable of meeting their needs. The Covid-19 pandemic has only accelerated this growing trend. As a pet groomer or business owner, how are you positioning yourself or your business for future growth and success?
Crunching the Numbers
Breakeven monthly on your 27th dog, at a minimum of $130 per dog within the first week. The other three weeks are your profit.
Averaging 6 dogs per day at $130 per dog and working 5 days per week (22 days per month), you will generate $17,160 monthly or $205,920 annually. Subtract your overhead expenses and your profit would be $13,785 per month or $165,420 per year plus tips!
