What is Snout Studios in Sherman Oaks?

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 Sherman Oaks, 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 Sherman Oaks — without opening a salon from scratch.

Sherman Oaks gives independent groomers a central Valley base near established residential neighborhoods and major routes across Los Angeles. Snout Studios is planning private, equipped suites without the cost and complexity of opening a standalone salon.

Why Sherman Oaks is built for independent groomers

A future Sherman Oaks studio would serve pet professionals and clients across the central San Fernando Valley through a flexible weekly membership.

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 Sherman Oaks groomer.

6 dogs/day × $90 avg$540/day
4 days a week$2,160/wk
Snout suite (all-inclusive)− $450/wk
You keep$1,710/wk

Illustrative example. Actual earnings depend on your pricing, schedule, and bookings.

What Sherman Oaks pet parents actually pay for grooming

Grooming is priced by metro, and Sherman Oaks 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.

ServiceTypical Sherman Oaks 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 Sherman Oaks 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.
