Most bodyshops should be able to handle that easliy. I'd be more concerned about thier paint matching abilities than the dent. There's no way I'd let the dealer cut metal to repair that.

I had a similar dent on a truck once. Had a body guy came out to look at it, as soon as he saw it he turned around and went back to his truck, got his body hammer and wacked the edges of the dent 5 or 6 times and out it popped. A few more wacks kept it from wanting to go back in again. A little rubbing compound to get rid of the metal marks on the paint and life was good again.
