We are expanding our team of compassionate Urban Pooch’s Pet Care Mobile Dog Groomers. Clients from time to time will be provided to you. We also provide a marketing kit for you to generate your own clients close to your home. We offer 24/7, 365 days a year service to our clients so there is the possibility for irregular hours and weekend work with this role. Since this is a mobile role, the ability to transport between clients in various locations is required. There is also the requirement that you bring your own grooming toolkit to be able to complete the service (including cleanup) in its entirety. Clients will provide space to work (bathroom, mud room, etc.) and dog shampoo. Everything else will need to be brought by you.

Are you compassionate? Are you passionate about social change? If the answer is yes to these questions, we have a job for you!
