Location: The Furry Dogmother, Warrington
Job Type: Full Time
About Us
We are an independently run grooming salon with a friendly, upbeat team and a genuine passion for dog welfare. Our focus is on quality grooming rather than conveyor-belt appointments, allowing our groomers the time they need to work calmly and carefully with each dog.
We schedule longer appointment times so every groom can be completed to a high standard while ensuring dogs remain relaxed and comfortable throughout their visit. Our groomers are given the time and support to produce beautiful grooms without rushing, prioritising the dog’s comfort and wellbeing above all else.
Our team works together to create a supportive and positive working environment, where groomers share knowledge, help each other, and take pride in the work they produce. We believe a strong team culture is key to creating a salon where both staff and dogs feel happy and relaxed.
We are also proud to be a multi-award-winning salon in Asian grooming and creative grooming, and we love pushing creative boundaries while maintaining exceptional grooming standards.
