Full Job Description

A Little Bit About Us

Shelbs’ Dog Spa is a locally owned dog grooming salon founded in 2023 with a mission to provide calm, safe, and quality-focused grooming experiences for both pets and their owners.

We believe dogs deserve patience, compassion, attention to detail, and individualized care — not to feel like they are being rushed through an assembly line. Our goal is to create an environment where pets feel safe, clients feel confident, and team members take pride in the work they do every day.

As we continue growing, we are looking for people who genuinely care about animals, value professionalism, and want to be part of building something long term.

Our Culture

At Shelbs’ Dog Spa, culture matters. We care deeply about the atmosphere we create inside the salon and believe the best work happens in an environment built on:

Integrity
Respect
Teamwork
Reliability
Professionalism
Attention to detail

We are intentional about maintaining a positive, professional, team-oriented environment where both people and pets are treated with kindness and respect.

This is not just a “wash dogs and go home” position. We are looking for someone who wants to grow, improve, and contribute to the long-term vision of the business.

What You’d Do in This Role

As a Dog Grooming Assistant, you will work directly alongside the owner helping support the daily operations of the salon.

Responsibilities include:

Bathing and prepping dogs for grooming appointments
Blow drying and brushing dogs thoroughly
Assisting with nail trims, ear cleaning, and prep work
Maintaining cleanliness throughout the salon
Sanitizing tubs, kennels, tools, and grooming areas
Safely handling dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments
Assisting with additional grooming responsibilities as training and experience grow
Helping create a calm and positive experience for pets and owners

You’re Probably a Match If:

You genuinely enjoy working with dogs
You are dependable and show up consistently
You work well in a fast-paced environment while maintaining attention to detail
You are coachable and willing to learn
You are calm under pressure and self-motivated
You communicate professionally with both coworkers and clients
You take pride in doing quality work
You are interested in long-term growth opportunities within the grooming industry

Physical Requirements

This is a physically active position. Candidates must be comfortable:

Standing for extended periods of time
Working around water, hair, barking, and cleaning throughout the day
Safely lifting, assisting, and handling dogs weighing 50–100+ lbs with proper support and technique
Performing repetitive bathing, drying, brushing, and cleaning tasks

Other Stuff to Know

Shelbs’ Dog Spa currently operates out of a professionally maintained attached garage salon environment. Candidates should be comfortable working in a smaller, hands-on, team-oriented setting while we continue growing and expanding the business.

Grooming or bathing experience is preferred, but not required for the right person. We are willing to train someone with a strong work ethic, positive attitude, and willingness to learn.

We are passionate about building a business centered around quality, professionalism, integrity, and genuine care for animals. If Shelbs’ Dog Spa sounds like an environment where you would be excited to grow and contribute, we would love to hear from you.

Pay: $13.00 - $18.00 per hour

Paid training
