Job Description

Barkbus is a premiere mobile grooming team dedicated to the health and wellness of pups. We are passionate about providing safe, healthy, and stress-free environments for dogs and groomers alike. Our company values quality over quantity, offering manageable schedules of only 3-6 dogs per day to ensure each pet receives the individual attention and care they deserve. By taking care of sales and marketing efforts, we allow our groomers to focus entirely on what they do best: grooming and caring for pets. We foster a fun and supportive community where team members can share their most impressive transformations, adventures, and favorite local spots, creating a sense of camaraderie and joy in the workplace.Show More
Full-time groomers at Barkbus enjoy a variety of benefits including paid time off, holidays, health benefits, and 401(k) retirement plans, all designed to help fill their cup both professionally and personally. Our team members work in modern, fully equipped vans, each fitted to provide a luxury grooming experience for dogs in a stress-free setting.

The Pet Stylist role at Barkbus is ideal for professionals who are passionate about grooming dogs and providing exceptional 1-on-1 care during services such as bathing, cutting, shaving, and trimming. Our stylists operate independently in our Hanvey grooming vans, supported by a dedicated in-house concierge and fleet maintenance teams. This support network handles scheduling, appointment adjustments, and van upkeep, allowing groomers to focus on their craft without distractions.

We understand that some dogs may require extra time or special attention, so our scheduling is flexible and thoughtful, ensuring that every appointment reflects the groomer's needs. Our team members also benefit from manageable daily schedules centered on safety and quality, with the ability to choose from three different shift types for greater stability and consistency in their workdays.

Compensation for Pet Stylists ranges between $25 and $32 per hour, including tips, with bonus amounts from $400 to $800 per month. We offer weekly payroll with bonuses paid twice a month, providing financial stability and reward for excellent work. Our benefits package includes medical, dental, and vision insurance for employees and their dependents, pet insurance, and a 401(k) retirement savings plan. Paid time off is earned based on hours worked, with no annual limits, plus paid sick leave and up to 11 paid and working holidays annually.

We also support continuous professional growth by covering the costs for up to three International Professional Groomer (IPG) certifications and offer perfect attendance rewards up to $250 a year in gift cards. To maintain energy and comfort throughout the day, we provide free snacks and beverages at our local hubs.

Joining Barkbus means becoming part of a team built on the foundation of uplifting others, fostering positivity and excitement, prioritizing professional development, and holding safety as paramount in all we do. Our comprehensive interview process ensures a good fit and sets every new hire up for success with a detailed onboarding plan.

Inclusion and diversity are core to Barkbus, as we are an equal opportunity employer committed to providing a welcoming environment for all employees regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, genetic information, sexual orientation, gender identity, or any other protected characteristic. We encourage individuals of all backgrounds to apply and thrive in our vibrant community.Show Less
