Zoom Room

Zoom Room is an indoor dog training gym with low start-up costs and a strong business model with multiple revenue streams. The majority of our clients come to us for basic obedience or puppy training, but end up coming back for advanced classes, agility training and delicious treats.
During this last year we continued to experience year-over-year growth, new store openings and multiple new franchise agreements signed. This is an ideal pet franchise opportunity as we provide a turnkey business for people who want to go into business for themselves, but not by themselves. No prior experience is required, just the desire to hang out with dogs and puppies all day.
WHY Zoom Room?
5 Points to get excited about Zoom Room: (1) Fun and exciting pet business (2)Great Client Retention (3) Low Liability (4) Turn-key operations (5) Less than half the cost to open a typical brick and mortar pet business.
The pet sector is now valued as a $150 Billion industry. The pet industry has been long considered recession resistant. Millennials, our largest customer base, are delaying having children and are spending more time and money with their pets, who are now a member of the family.
