Sparkle Grooming Corp., operating as Sparkle Grooming Co., is a wellness-focused dog grooming franchise established in 2022. The company aims to elevate pet care by pioneering the Quick-Service Pet Care (QSPC) category, blending salon-style grooming with wellness-focused hygiene and neighborhood-level service.

The company's QSPC model emphasizes external health essentials, consistent, efficient, and low-stress care for dogs, targeting busy pet parents and multi-unit franchise operators.
Co-founded by Ben Crawford (CEO) and Joe Aeppli (COO), Sparkle Grooming Co. has rapidly expanded, becoming one of the fastest-growing franchise brands in the country. As of April 2026, the company had surpassed 500 awarded licenses across 27 states in under 24 months of franchising. Recent notable developments include a landmark 67-license regional development agreement across the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast in February 2026, and an expansion into the Chicago market with three franchise licenses in January 2026. The company's market positioning is driven by its membership-based model, designed to generate recurring revenue.
