MJ’s Pet Spaw

Luxury Cage-Free Pet Grooming. Two Ways to Own It.

TRUSTED SINCE 2017, BRICK & MORTAR SALON AND MOBILE SPAW

FRANCHISE OPPORTUNITY

Build Your Community’s Premier Pet Grooming Destination

Up to 71% of U.S. households own at least one pet, and increasingly see them as family. Pet care is big business, driving a $158+ billion U.S. industry.

With multiple “best of” awards in Orange County, California, an MJ’s Pet Spaw franchise delivers the personalized touch of a locally celebrated salon with the consistency and professionalism customers expect from a national chain.

Built-In Brand Equity.

Calm, caring, and cage-free isn’t just a slogan. It’s the way we do business. You’ll inherit the brand trust we’ve spent years building, a priceless asset in the pet industry.

Dogs & Cats. Salon & Street.

Unlike many competitors, we cater to both of America’s most popular pets, with two convenient ways to accommodate their owners.

Recurring Revenue Engine.

Many pets return every 4 weeks, and high-maintenance breeds more frequently. Specialty treatments and curated retail elevate tickets.

Craft, not Throughput.

Hand-scissoring and hand-brushing take time, and they also produce the social media shares, referrals, and return visits that drive leads and build loyalty.

Looking for Partners Ready to Build a Spaw, Not an Assembly Line

MJ’s Pet Spaw is built around one non-negotiable pillar: pets are treated like family. They’re not stored in cages while they wait. Each animal is scheduled by breed and coat so the groom is unhurried and low-stress.

Hand-scissor finish and hand-brush after every bath is the service standard. Products are natural, gentle, and chosen for sensitive skin. Bows, bandanas, and “paparazzi” photos complete the ritual.

If you’re not willing to slow down, take care, and meet that standard with every pet, every time, this is not the franchise for you.

You Might Be a Fit If You:

• Can follow & execute proven systems
• Love pets & want to work with them daily
• Intend to be a hands-on operator who upholds brand standards
• Can hire, train, and motivate a team
• Are suitably capitalized to support the business through ramp-up

Why Pet Grooming is a Franchise Category, not a Side Gig

Americans no longer treat pet grooming as a luxury add-on. It’s an essential tool for keeping their furry family members healthy and presentable.

The shift is why the category keeps growing, even while people are watching their budgets. Spending on grooming services reached $11.5 billion in 2025.

Most markets are full of pets, but short on groomers that pet parents actually trust. A brand that trains to a standard and treats animals as individuals can fill that market gap and capture local demand, that’s the MJ’s Pet Spaw franchise advantage.

Pets are family.
Grooming is recurring.

Meet MJ Nejad, Founder

In 2015, MJ met a dog at another salon that every groomer there had labeled aggressive. Her owners had driven 45 minutes because no one else would touch her. MJ asked if he could try. She sniffed his hand and wagged her tail.

The seed for MJ’s Pet Spaw was planted.

After earning his grooming certificate, MJ designed his first mobile unit himself. Two more vans followed by that November, and by July 2017, the waiting list demanded a salon.

What started as one person, one van, and a stubborn belief that “difficult” pets still deserve care is now a cage-free Spaw and Boutique with a mobile fleet serving Orange County families, and an award-winning reputation built on standards, not slogans.

Through franchising, MJ is offering the system behind both: a proven salon format that fits a strip center, and a mobile format that brings the Spaw to the driveway.
