What is Snout Studios in Phoenix?
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 Phoenix, 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.
Go independent in Phoenix — without opening a salon from scratch.
Phoenix has been named the most pet-friendly city in America three years running, and the salon-suite model is already proven here. Snout Studios gives Phoenix groomers a private, climate-controlled suite on a simple weekly membership — no $80K buildout, no commission chair.
Why Phoenix is built for independent groomers
Roughly 50% of Phoenix households own a dog, the metro grows ~1.5% a year, and air-conditioned indoor suites are a feature, not a nice-to-have, in the desert.
Keep what you earn. Do the math.
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 Phoenix groomer.
Illustrative example. Actual earnings depend on your pricing, schedule, and bookings.
What Phoenix pet parents actually pay for grooming
Grooming is priced by metro, and Phoenix 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 Phoenix price |
|---|---|
| Full groom · small dog | $50–$75 |
| Full groom · medium dog | $70–$110 |
| Full groom · large or doodle | $90–$145 |
| Premium / mobile-style groom | $100–$175+ |
| Average local grooming session | ~$70 |
Independent groomers in Phoenix 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.
