Being a groomer myself I know how it can be to work in a stressful, hostile, out of control situation. All of our groomers come from places where their needs were never met and they were not able to work how they wanted to work. Our biggest goal has been to move away from a corporate like workplace and into one in which everyone can feel in control and happy with what they do. At Goat & Bear our pets are our life and we know our clients feel the same way. This is also why we opened up this salon because everyone involved with grooming deserves to have the best time and to be appreciated for all of their hard work. We hope that we can find a couple more assets to our team that love to work here and be groomers as much as we do. For any more information or for any questions please feel free to contact us here. We look forward to hearing from you!!
