  • Delivering high-quality, breed-appropriate grooms
  • Maintaining strict safety standards
  • Communicating clearly with pet parents

  • Conduct thorough meet-and-greets to clarify expectations
  • Explain coat condition, grooming limitations, and realistic outcomes
  • Obtain approval for any additional services or pricing adjustments
  • Provide post-groom updates and report any health observations
  • Respond promptly to client calls and emails
  • Rebook and maintain your client base professionally

Cleanliness & Professional Standards

  • Maintain a sanitized grooming space at all times
  • Sweep hair promptly and clean bathing/drying areas daily
  • Disinfect drying rooms daily and deep disinfect weekly
  • Properly label and identify all pets in your care
  • Communicate clearly with pet care staff regarding pet location and timing

What We’re Looking For

  • We are seeking a groomer who is:
  • Experienced and technically skilled
  • Calm, patient, and safety-focused
  • Strong in written and verbal communication
  • Detail-oriented and organized

You must be able to:

  • Groom all breeds and coat types confidently

  • Commitment to humane handling practices

Work Schedule

  • Full-Time
  • Monday–Friday shifts
  • Weekend availability required

Benefits & Perks

  • Health, Dental & Vision Insurance
  • Employee Pet Care Discounts
  • Tips
  • Growth opportunities within NVA
