Well-established pet care business serving the Dallas market with a loyal customer base, diversified revenue streams, and strong community reputation. Highlights **Established dog daycare, boarding, grooming, and training operation near Downtown Dallas **4.7+ star online rating with 100+ reviews and strong repeat clientele **Historically generated approximately $150K in Seller’s Discretionary Earnings **Experienced, customer-focused staff in place with minimal owner involvement in daily operations **Multiple revenue streams provide stability and cross-selling opportunities **Significant upside through marketing reactivation, refreshed branding/facility improvements, and active ownership **Seller financing available for qualified buyers with substantial down payment **Growth Opportunity The current owner has operated the business passively in recent years while focusing on outside interests, creating a compelling opportunity for a motivated owner-operator or strategic buyer to restore growth and expand profitability. The foundation is already built: loyal customers, trained staff, established reputation, and proven historical earnings. Ideal Buyer - Perfect fit for: **Owner-operator seeking a scalable pet services business **Dog trainer or groomer looking to expand into ownership **Multi-unit pet care operator seeking Dallas market expansion **Entrepreneur passionate about animals and customer service Asking Price Offered at $250,000, including goodwill, established operations, trained staff, and growth potential. After several years of successful operation, ownership began preparing for retirement and pursued a sale process over the past year. During that period, operational focus and marketing efforts declined, resulting in reduced cash flow. The business still maintains an established customer base, recurring clientele, and strong local reputation, creating an opportunity for a hands-on owner to restore growth through updated marketing, refreshed operations, expanded services, and renewed owner involvement.

Maryland, United States
MD, US
Capitalize on the booming pet services industry with this premier, full-service pet care facility located in a prime, high-traffic Maryland region. The business boasts a stellar local reputation and offers an all-in-one care model featuring open-play doggy daycare, overnight boarding, and fully equipped grooming.

With an established, deeply loyal client base and highly predictable recurring revenue from daycare packages and steady boarding bookings, this business is perfectly positioned for a seamless transition. Offering healthy, documented cash flows and multiple clear avenues for expansion (such as retail growth or training programs), this is an ideal acquisition for a passionate hands-on operator looking to acquire a top-tier brand in a recession-resistant sector.

What to know about pet services acquisitions
GW
Cofounder & CEO
Key diligence, valuation, financing, and transition considerations for buyers evaluating pet services acquisitions.
Check the facility, zoning, and noise permits
Boarding and daycare need suitable space and zoning/noise clearance that retail doesn't — confirm the location is compliant and the lease supports the use.
Review reputation and incident history
One serious incident or a wave of bad reviews can sink a pet business; look at online reputation, complaints, and liability claims.
Separate recurring services from retail
Grooming, boarding, and daycare memberships are stickier and higher-margin than product sales — a productive groomer alone can generate $80K–$120K a year. Get the mix.
Assess staffing, training, and turnover
Skilled groomers and reliable care staff are hard to hire and central to quality; understand pay and turnover.
Understand the owner's hands-on role
Many shops are the owner grooming, managing, and greeting clients — know what running it actually requires.
Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common buyer questions for this market.
Yes, supported by recurring demand. Lenders look at groomer dependence, facility suitability, and recurring revenue, so a business that isn't one person and a table funds more easily.
