Who we are

Scenthound is redefining the $147B pet industry as the nation’s first wellness-focused, membership-based dog care franchise. Unlike traditional grooming models centered on appearance, Scenthound prioritizes hygiene and preventive health—providing essential care such as bathing, ear cleaning, nail trimming, and teeth brushing through affordable monthly memberships.

Our model drives predictable, recurring revenue while promoting consistent wellness for dogs. Backed by leading investors and a best-in-class support team, Scenthound offers franchisees a low-investment, small-footprint concept that can be operated hands-on or semi-absentee.

Technology is at the heart of Scenthound’s operations. Our proprietary app powers wellness tracking, client engagement, and real-time performance dashboards. Each visit includes a S.C.E.N.T. Check™—a six-point wellness assessment that builds long-term trust with pet parents.

Recognized by Inc. 5000 and Franchise Business Review as one of America’s fastest-growing franchises, Scenthound delivers a purpose-driven, data-powered model that transforms dog care. With strong profitability, national expansion opportunities, and growing consumer demand for pet wellness, Scenthound offers a ground-floor opportunity to lead the clean dog revolution.
