Sparkle Grooming Co. Expands into St. Louis Metro
Introduction
Sparkle Grooming Co., a rapidly growing and wellness-focused dog grooming franchise, is set to make its mark in the St. Louis metro area with a new salon opening in Wentzville, Missouri. The new location will be managed by local franchisees, Kimberly and Steve Barnhart, who aim to provide a unique approach to pet grooming that emphasizes comfort, transparency, and community engagement.
A New Beginning in Wentzville
Kimberly and Steve Barnhart have a rich background in the membership-driven service sector. Their journey began at The Joint Chiropractic where Kimberly initially worked as a Wellness Coordinator. Over time, driven by their passion for service and community health, the couple transitioned into franchise ownership. This experience developed their desire to implement a modern, accessible approach to pet care, and Sparkle Grooming perfectly aligns with their vision.
The new Wentzville location is designed to prioritize pets’ comfort, enabling families to feel secure and at ease during grooming sessions. The Barnharts’ model replaces the traditional “backroom” grooming experience with an open salon environment, ensuring pets are calm and comfortable while receiving high-quality care. Steve Barnhart expresses their excitement saying, “After years in membership-driven care, we've seen how the right model can improve people's lives. Sparkle allows us to bring that same reliability and support to pet parents.”
Why Wentzville is the Ideal Location
Wentzville boasts a strong sense of community and a high rate of dog ownership, making it an ideal fit for Sparkle’s pet-centered philosophy. The Barnharts understand the significance of offering services that treat pets as valued family members. Their previous experiences empower them to deliver an elevated grooming experience that reflects the values of the local pet-owning community.
Moreover, Wentzville families often seek services that align with their lifestyle, and Sparkle Grooming focuses on establishing lasting relationships built on trust and consistency. The commitment to putting both pets and owners first differentiates Sparkle Grooming in the competitive pet care market.
Sparkle Grooming's Innovative Approach

Their Quick-Service Pet Care (QSPC) model integrates salon-style grooming with wellness-oriented hygiene and personalized service.
