• One on one grooming (no chaotic, high volume environment)
• Focus on quality over quantity
• Calm, clean, and organized workspace
• Clients who value regular grooming and proper coat care
• Supportive, drama free atmosphere

Pay:

• Hourly pay starting at $20
• 25 an hour (based on experience)
• 100% of tips go to you
• Opportunity to grow with the business

Responsibilities:

• Full grooms (bath, haircut, nails, ears)
• Maintaining a clean and sanitary workspace
• Communicating with clients in a friendly and professional way
• Keeping pets safe, comfortable, and stress free during their visit Bonus if you:
