Pet Stylist – Dog Groomer (1+ Year Experience)
Thinking about changing salons, but worried what that will do to your income?We understand!Changing shops shouldn't feel like a high-stakes bet on your bank account. We believe talent deserves a safety net. That’s why we provide a guaranteed base salary—so you don't have to stress about rent.In addition to your salary, you keep your commission and 100% of your tips—we just make sure your “worst-case week” still works financially.Client Demand & Booking StabilityWe’ve been serving the community for nearly 16 years through dog walking, vacation care, and daycare, with an established client base that already trusts us with their dogs.Grooming is an expanding service within our business, supported by an existing, active client base and steady demand—so you’re stepping into an established system, not starting from scratch.If you already have clients who would follow you, you’re welcome to bring them—this can help you grow even faster, and we offer an additional 5% commission on those grooms.Work EnvironmentFinancial peace of mind is just the first step.The second is the environment you spend hours a day in. Most “standard” shops are built for volume, not for people.If you feel like you’re constantly fighting a headache just to get through the day, this probably sounds familiar:Hot. Humid.
