We’re hungry people always learning, looking for knowledge, new and natural ways to solve health and behavioral issues in cats and dogs. That’s why we’re searching for like-minded people who want to be a voice for the betterment of the well-being of animals – people who like staying outside of their comfort zone, humble, yet tenacious.
More importantly, when you work with us, we understand that each has its own strengths and skills, which is why we give you the freedom to implement your own ideas into the business.
Positions Available:
If you love making people happy, this is the job for you.
Job description:

- Manage our social media.
- Call our customers after grooming to check in on their pets and see if they were satisfied with the grooming.

- Possessing Class 3 driving license preferred but not required.
We do the best we can to make pets feel safe and comfortable, and we don’t just pay lip service to it. Which is why we work on one client before we move to the next, rather than grooming in mass quantities.

- Taking customers’ instructions, taking calls if other co-workers are busy.

Volunteer Bathers/Grooming Assistant
Grooming your pets is not only about aesthetics or keeping them clean. A lot of people fail to recognize the psychological benefits it brings to the relationship. Without gaining some form of proficiency, grooming will scary both to you and your pets. If you were to master at least the basic aspects of your pets’ grooming, you’ll feel more confident as an owner and your pets will enjoy grooming more at and outside the house.
That’s exactly how I transformed my relationship with my first dog. I didn’t know how to manage him for the first 10 years of his life. Grooming changed everything. If you want to explore the possibility of the immense sense of love and connection with your pet, master something today. Grooming, training, massage. Anything! It will take your relationship to the next level. I promise.
Job description:
- Helping pets with their basic grooming, e.g. nails, ear cleaning, shaving paw pads and hygiene area, bath and dry.
- Training and guidance will be given.
- More importantly is what skills you think you can bring onto the table. Do you like photography? Planning and running events? Let us know!

- Helping pets with their basic grooming, e.g. nails, ear cleaning, shaving paw pads and hygiene area, bath and dry.

However, please do consider the following:
- Grooming is a very physically and emotionally demanding job. Many groomers start young but only a handful manage to work pass 40 years of age.
- We don’t earn a lot of money.
- Most pets do not like grooming. Some downright hate it and they will hate you.
- Accidents do happen and as animal lovers, we tend to blame ourselves a little too much.
- It’s a dirty job. Just ask any groomers if any of them enjoy the smell of anal glands.
