NOW HIRING: DOG BATHER

Part-Time ~30 Hours/Week Mon–Fri $14–$16/hr

Do you have a gift for making even the most anxious pup feel safe and loved? Can you wield a blow dryer like a pro and emerge from a bath still smiling? Bark Boutique needs you!

We’re a boutique dog grooming studio with a serious passion for happy, clean, fluffy dogs — and we’re looking for a bather who shares that love. No prior grooming experience required… but a big heart for dogs absolutely is.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Bathing, blow-drying, and brushing dogs prior to grooming appointments
  • Nail trims, ear cleaning, and light prep work
  • Keeping kennels, tubs, and work areas clean and organized
  • Handling dogs safely and gently — every dog, every size, every day
  • Supporting our grooming team so appointments run smoothly

What We're Looking For

  • A genuine love for dogs (this one’s non-negotiable!)
  • Ability to handle dogs of various sizes and energy levels calmly and confidently
  • Reliable, punctual, and ready to hit the ground running at 7:30 AM
  • Comfortable being on your feet and physically active throughout your shift
  • A positive attitude and willingness to learn
  • Previous dog handling or grooming experience is a plus — but not required

The Details

  • Schedule: Monday through Friday, starting at 7:30 AM
  • Hours: Approximately 30 hours per week
  • Pay: $14–$16/hour depending on experience
  • W2 position

Why You'll Love It Here

  • Consistent weekday schedule — your weekends are yours!
  • A small, friendly team where you actually matter
  • Work surrounded by dogs all day (yes, really)
  • A great starting point if you’re interested in learning to groom

Think you’re the perfect fit? Give us a call or drop us an email — we’d love to set up an interview!
