It depends on how you decide to operate your business. At our academy we offer management classes which teach you how to maximize your income whether you are working for someone else, or starting your own business. While we cannot predict or guarantee any amount of income, we have compiled the following statistics and examples in order for you to determine how much you can expect to earn based on what your plans and ambitions are. Sometimes it's higher than that, but usually it's not. Below is a chart to figure out what you would make based on our statistics if you choose to not be self employed.
Salaries vary around the country based on cost of living and individual groomers' skill and speed.
The average student who attends our academy can completely groom between 6 and 7 pets per day upon graduation. Some students are faster than that and some prefer to take it slow and concentrate on perfecting their skills. Regardless of which way you choose to develop, speed always comes with practice and experience. We have had several experienced employees who can complete 15-16 pets per day by themselves. Keep in mind that pet grooming can be very seasonal in some parts of the country.
