Snout Studios is coming to Denver — the city with the highest dog-ownership rate of any major U.S. metro. Reserve your private suite before we open.
Proven model: our LA flagship is open and fully operating, with 240+ groomers already on the waitlist nationwide.
Snout Studios is the first national brand of private pet grooming salon suites — fully equipped grooming rooms that independent groomers join as members. Snout Studios is coming to Denver, giving local groomers a private space to run their own business, keep 100% of their earnings, and set their own hours, without the cost of opening a salon from scratch.
No major U.S. city loves dogs more than Denver, where ~60% of households own one. That's an enormous base of pet parents — and a huge opportunity for groomers who want to work for themselves in a private, fully equipped suite.
Denver combines the highest dog-ownership rate of any major metro (~60%) with affluent, outdoorsy, remote-working pet parents who treat dogs like family.
At a corporate chain, 40–60% of every groom goes to the company. In your own Snout suite, you pay one flat weekly fee and keep the rest. Here's a typical week for a Denver groomer.
Illustrative example. Actual earnings depend on your pricing, schedule, and bookings.
Grooming is priced by metro, and Denver is no exception. Here's what a typical full-service groom runs locally — the rates you set, and keep all of, in your own private Snout Studios suite.
| Service | Typical Denver price |
|---|---|
| Full groom · small dog | $55–$85 |
| Full groom · medium dog | $75–$120 |
| Full groom · large or doodle | $95–$165 |
| Premium / mobile-style groom | $110–$190+ |
| Average local grooming session | ~$78 |
Independent groomers in Denver keep 100% of these rates — your only fixed cost is one flat 450/week membership, with no commission taken on a single groom. At local pricing, a steady book of 5–6 dogs a day adds up fast.
Denver's dog culture is unmatched — an active, affluent population that prioritizes wellness and pays for private, attentive grooming.
One flat weekly suite fee. We never take a cut of your service revenue.

Skip the $50K–$100K buildout and the personal-guarantee commitment. Flexible terms.
Most Denver groomers are stuck choosing between a corporate chair and a six-figure buildout. There's a better way.
