Hydrodog Dog Grooming Services and Dog Grooming Franchises

Scott & Janine Hoffman, Master Franchisee, Western Australia

Scott Hoffman is the Master Franchisee of HydroDog WA. Scott joined the HydroDog team in 2009 after 16 years owning retail stores in the telecommunications industry. Scott was looking for a change of lifestyle and chose to join HydroDog because he saw a bunch of people who are passionate about what they do, are having fun and making money along the way!

Coming from the extremely competitive industry of telecommunications, Scott understands the importance of joining the best in the industry, which is another reason he chose to join HydroDog, the number one mobile dog grooming franchise in Australia. 

Scott uses his skills of building and running successful businesses over the last 16 years to assist the WA team members grow their businesses and reach their own personal goals from owning their HydroDog business. 

Scott runs the WA Master Franchise with wife Janine. Scott and Janine are thrilled to be a part of the HydroDog family. They now enjoy changing people’s lives by helping them get into a business that provides flexibility, lifestyle and great cash flow while getting outdoors and pampering the furry family member.

Before being introduced to HydroDog I held numerous management roles in various retail environments, and for a long time was managing bakeries utilising my skills as a qualified pastry chef. After learning much about sales in the home loan industry, a master franchise was a natural progression for me and HydroDog impressed me as a fast growing franchise with a great image and huge potential.

I initially bought the master franchise of Greater Northern NSW, ranging from the Central Coast in NSW up to Ballina in Northern NSW. This area had one franchisee in it at the time of purchase in 2004. In 2007 I bought the master franchise for SA with 9 existing franchisees. Both areas have rapidly grown to their current size of about 45 franchisees and continue to grow quickly.

I believe the success of HydroDog is in the knowledge that the system works, our franchisees are happy doing what they love and are earning what they want to earn. Mostly I enjoy my role of introducing new people to HydroDog and in making franchisees happy and successful.

I have recently taken over management of Southern NSW, from Sydney down to the Victorian border. With this additional area I am now looking after 75 franchisees with quite a few more coming on board shortly. Although all this keeps me busy it is very rewarding and I intend to grow all 3 areas of HydroDog consistently moving forwards. In between times I like to spend as much time as possible with my wife and young family.
