Happy Friday Daily Groomers!

‍

We’ve got some big news to share…

‍

Since we opened applications for the 2026 Top Grooming Business Awards® last week, we’ve received over 400 applicants! 🎉 Groomers from all over are raising their hands, and we absolutely love to see it.

‍

So we’re resharing it, because your business deserves a spot on that list too.

Why Apply?

The 2026 Top Grooming Business Awards® honor, celebrate, and elevate the grooming businesses shaping the future of the industry. Here’s what winners get:

• Directory badge listing – show up as a Top Grooming Business where pet parents already browse.

• Best-of article feature – editorial coverage that helps locals (and search) discover you.

• Shareable recognition – proud assets for your website, Google profile, and socials.

• More pet-parent discovery – recognition built to drive real visits, not vanity.

‍

Whether you’re a solo mobile groomer or a multi-location salon owner, this award isn’t about being the biggest. It’s about showing up every day to do something you are passionate about. (even on your bad days, you still smile and wave)

‍

How It Works

1. Start the short application. It only takes a few minutes.

3. We review by hand. Our editorial team reads every complete application.
4. Winners are announced. Honorees get listing and feature guidance from our team.
5. ‍
