The Numbers

Multi-Unit Agreements Available

We strongly value the commitment and dedication of our frontline workers, first responders and members of our armed forces, which is why we offer discounts on the franchise fee. We also know that you will love this concept, but it takes time to grow — which is why we waive the royalty fee for the first 12 months. Additional fees and information is available in our Franchise Disclosure Document.

Dedicated Training & Support

Feeling overwhelmed or a bit unsure? Don’t worry — we’ve done this before and we’re here to help! Before we take the next step, we’d love for you to join us at our flagship store in Minneapolis, MN to spend a few hours getting to know our team and learning about our values, mission, and culture. 

Next, after you visit and get a feel for the Bubbly Paws brand, we will keep the conversation flowing and equip you with everything you need to ramp up. Before your grand opening, we will also host training classes at our flagship location to cover important information about our company culture, marketing, grooming, recruiting, and how to use our custom booking program, PawTastic.app. 

Come ready to work because it’s a hands-on training experience! This is a great way to learn quickly and set yourself up for success.

Our Bubbly Paws management team is ready to help you find and design the perfect store:

  1. First, we’ll join you in visiting potential locations to help find the ideal spot.

  2. Next, we’ll collaborate with your architect (our ours) to design the “guts” of the store — from plumbing, HVAC, retail areas and more.

  3. Lastly, we’ll help you track progress and make sure you stay on schedule for the grand opening. We’ve done this before and want to pass along what we know works!
