Our Pet Resort is part of a larger company called National Veterinary Associates (“NVA”) that is made up of over 1000+ locations of veterinary hospitals and pet resorts.This is exciting as NVA has dedicated resources to growing our business and your role. The pet resorts industry is growing at a rapid pace and so is NVA. We are proud to be a part of this growing business! Position Overview: The Groomer is a commission-based position within our Pet Resort and reports directly to the General Manager. We believe in the mission of “Pet Lovers Delighting Pet Lovers” and we demonstrate this through being Playful, Passionate, Personal and Professional. A successful candidate for this position will be someone who not only embraces this culture, but is a team player, self-motivated, takes direction well, has excellent communication skills, and great attention to detail. This is a service-related industry and you should not only be skilled at customer service, but passionate about helping people. Most importantly, candidates should have experience grooming or bathing all breeds of dogs and cats. Primary responsibilities are to ensure that all pets in your care receive a groom that is of professional quality that meets or exceeds the client's request without ever compromising the physical and emotional health of the pet.

Daily, you'll work on both animals with reservations, walk-in appointments and some of our guests who are staying with us in boarding.

You'll document what you are seeing - sometimes you're the first to notice an issue and can help the parents solve a health concern.

    Farrier job in Mason, OH

    Do you enjoy combining creativity and precision to keep pets looking polished? We are seeking a full time Dog Groomer to join the Pet Spa team! Our Pet Resort is part of a larger company called National Veterinary Associates (“NVA”) that is made up of over 1000+ locations of veterinary hospitals and pet resorts.This is exciting as NVA has dedicated resources to growing our business and your role. The pet resorts industry is growing at a rapid pace and so is NVA. We are proud to be a part of this growing business! Position Overview: The Groomer is a commission-based position within our Pet Resort and reports directly to the General Manager. We believe in the mission of “Pet Lovers Delighting Pet Lovers” and we demonstrate this through being Playful, Passionate, Personal and Professional. A successful candidate for this position will be someone who not only embraces this culture, but is a team player, self-motivated, takes direction well, has excellent communication skills, and great attention to detail. This is a service-related industry and you should not only be skilled at customer service, but passionate about helping people. Most importantly, candidates should have experience grooming or bathing all breeds of dogs and cats. Primary responsibilities are to ensure that all pets in your care receive a groom that is of professional quality that meets or exceeds the client's request without ever compromising the physical and emotional health of the pet. A Day in the Life: This role is very important to our pets and their parents. You're the one who makes them feel like a million bucks! Oftentimes, you are helping keep their pet healthy by maintaining a clean and well-groomed animal. Daily, you'll work on both animals with reservations, walk-in appointments and some of our guests who are staying with us in boarding. You'll perform a full groom, simple baths and touch ups and sometimes, the random “emergency-someone-just-peed-on-themselves-because-they-are-so-excited-bath.” You'll not only communicate with the dog(s), but also have a lot of interaction with mom and dad. You'll document what you are seeing - sometimes you're the first to notice an issue and can help the parents solve a health concern.

Responsibilities: Provide an overall positive experience for the pets as they are being groomed, including compassion, gentleness, reassurance, safety, and comfort. Ensure that all guests are groomed or bathed (depending on the parent's requests) to the parent's specifications. Grooms/Baths must be completed on time.
