You're Not Just a Bather

You’re a Grooming Technician with Heart

At Wet Nose, our Grooming Technicians are the unsung heroes of clean coats and happy hearts. This isn’t a prep role—it’s the whole service. You’ll work one-on-one with dogs that don’t require haircuts but still deserve the full groooming experience: bath, brush, blow-dry, nails, ears, the works. Unlike most salons, this role is paid hourly (plus tips)—because we don’t believe in rushing through pets just to meet a quota. It’s hands-on, messy, and incredibly rewarding. If you love dogs, embrace the splash zone, and believe every pup deserves to leave feeling fresh and fabulous—you might just belong here.

What You'll Be Doing

As a Pet Bather at Wet Nose, you’ll provide full-service bathing experiences in a calm, Fear Free® environment—no trimming or styling required.

Perform full-service baths, including thorough brush-outs, nail trims, and ear cleaning
Gently dry dogs using approved Fear Free® techniques and equipment

What You Bring to The Pack

A genuine love for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments
