Licensed Dog Groomer

PUP - Dog Spa and Day Care • Part-time • San Juan Capistrano, California, United States • $24 - $32 / hour • 1m ago

Job Overview:

We are PUP!

A team of dog-passionate people who love what we do. Our 5,000 sq ft space is less industrial and more warm and adorable than most pet environments. We genuinely care for everyone involved in our business, and take great consideration in each individual staff member.

We’re seeking a groomer to join our dedicated team. As a Pet Groomer, you will be responsible for ensuring the health, safety, and happiness of all the dogs in our care through expert pet grooming, handling, and care. Your primary role will be to provide a comfortable and welcoming environment for our pets, their parents, and while also delivering exceptional customer service to everyone.

__________________________________________

This position entails:

- Answering phones at times, appointment scheduling, and light clerical/receptionist duties.

At PUP, we want to grow into having our grooming team simply just groom. No additional front desk tasks would be needed, no clerical, and just grooming.

- A meaningful and personalized grooming job for each dog is our standard.

- As we grow our customer base, we can expect to work at minimum 20-25 hours initially, and would lead into full time as anticipated, within six months. When not grooming dogs, our work would also involve local marketing distribution and verbal communication with potential customers.
