The Dog Stop's New Chapter with REP'M Group
In a significant move for the pet care industry, REP'M Group has officially added
The Dog Stop to its roster of franchise brands. Known for its all-inclusive approach to pet care, The Dog Stop enhances REP'M's portfolio, which already features a range of successful brands in various sectors. Founded in 2009 in
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, The Dog Stop aims to redefine pet care by providing all essential services—boarding, daycare, grooming, retail, in-home services, and training—under one roof.
A Vision Realized
The inception of The Dog Stop was sparked by the founder Jesse Coslov's desire to create a comprehensive resource for pet owners. After conducting extensive market research, Coslov developed a concept that fills a gap in the existing market by offering a trustworthy and inclusive environment for pets and their owners. He shared, "When I first set out to create The Dog Stop, there wasn't a single place where I could find all the services I needed for my own dogs under one roof. We built this brand to be the all-inclusive, trustworthy resource that pet owners deserve."
Rapid Expansion Plans
Currently operating over
40 locations across 16 states, The Dog Stop has plans for even more expansion, with over 30 additional franchise units in development. Each location is locally owned and operated, yet strongly aligned with the brand's mission: to provide a safe environment, anticipate client needs, and establish trust with pet owners.
This strategic partnership with REP'M Group positions The Dog Stop for accelerated national outreach. REP'M Group is known for its four pillars of success:
Grow'M, Build'M, Brand'M, and Scale'M, which will help The Dog Stop enhance its service quality and reach new customers.
The Strength of a Growing Portfolio
As part of REP'M Group's diverse range of brands encompassing fitness, wellness, home care, and lifestyle, The Dog Stop fits seamlessly into their expanding portfolio. Other notable brands under REP'M include Alloy Personal Training and MilkShake Factory. Nick Sheehan, REP'M's Founder and Managing Partner, expressed enthusiasm about the addition, stating, "We couldn't be more excited to welcome The Dog Stop into the REP'M family. The pet care industry is thriving, and The Dog Stop has carved out a unique position with its all-in-one model and strong leadership."
