systemctl show foobar -p InactiveExitTimestampMonotonic -p ActiveEnterTimestampMonotonic

That provides you with the monotonic timestamps (i.e. time since boot,
in µs) of the time where the service "foobar" left the "inactive"
state, as well as the time where it entered the "active" state. The
difference between the two is the service startup time.
