Skiptown Maintains Midyear Growth with Continued Franchise Development Momentum

Skiptown, a tech-enabled dog care franchise, is experiencing significant growth as it enters the second half of 2026. The company reported a 23% increase in year-over-year revenue and achieved its highest monthly revenue ever in June. This momentum is attributed to ongoing demand for pet services and upgrades to their systems, which are enhancing recurring revenue streams. In a notable development, Skiptown has signed a multi-unit franchise agreement with a new franchisee who, after being a loyal member of the brand, will open five locations in the Denver-Metro area of Colorado. This franchisee represents both an experienced operator and an advocate for the brand, illustrating a trend toward franchisee engagement.

In addition to expanding its geographic footprint, Skiptown is implementing strategic initiatives to bolster its membership offerings. After the successful launch of The Clean Pup Plan, which saw a 110% increase in membership conversions, Skiptown now boasts over 8,000 active members across various service offerings. The company has also revamped its VIP membership to consolidate daycare, boarding, grooming, and social benefits into a single plan, thereby enhancing value for its members. According to CEO Mike Rotondo, “The momentum we’re seeing across the business reinforces that pet parents are looking for a more modern, connected pet care experience.”
