Experienced Dog Groomers Wanted – New Woodstock Location
Groom Woodstock is hiring!
We’re opening a brand-new salon in Woodstock, IL and actively hiring experienced, professional groomers who take pride in their craft and want to grow in a groomer-first environment.
If you’re tired of rushed appointments, inconsistent pay, or feeling undervalued, this is a different kind of shop.
What You’ll Earn & Why It Matters
- 50% Commission on ALL services (including upgrades & nail trims)
- Keep 100% of your tips
- Weekly pay — no waiting, no surprises
- Retail incentives + bonus opportunities
Bottom line: Your skill directly drives your income here. No ceilings, no games.
Why Groomers Choose Us
We’ve built this salon around you, not just the business.
- Groomer-focused scheduling (quality over quantity)
- Supportive, low-drama work environment
- Consistent, loyal clientele (no scrambling to fill your books)
- Clean, safe, and professionally run facility
- Management that understands grooming—not just numbers
Schedule That Works for You
- Monday – Friday: 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM
- Saturday: 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM (required)
- Always closed Sundays + 1 weekday off
Predictable hours. No late nights. Real work-life balance.
Your Role
- Deliver high-quality grooms based on client expectations
- Perform full-service grooming (bathing, drying, haircuts, nails, ears, etc.)
- Identify and communicate pet health concerns when needed
- Provide a great experience for both pets and their owners
- Maintain a clean, safe workspace
What We’re Looking For
- Minimum 1–3+ years professional grooming experience
- Strong handling skills and understanding of dog behavior
- Ability to groom safely, efficiently, and confidently
- Reliable, team-oriented, and customer-focused
- Comfortable working with dogs 50+ lbs when needed
Real Benefits (Not Just Buzzwords)
- Paid Time Off + Paid Holidays
- Free groom for your pet (1/month)
- Employee discounts on retail
- Sharpening allowance
- Uniform allowance
- Quarterly team outings + holiday events
- Flexible scheduling options
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Most salons talk about “great culture.”
We focus on what actually matters:
- Fair pay
- Respect for your time
- A steady flow of clients
- A team that has your back
Location: Woodstock, IL (In-person position)
Pay: From $25.00 per hour
