- Monitor dogs throughout the grooming process and stop or modify a service if safety or welfare concerns arise.
- Maintain grooming equipment, tools, workstations and bathing areas to high hygiene and safety standards.
- Follow safe equipment use, cleaning, disinfection and incident-reporting procedures.
- Maintain accurate grooming notes and communicate relevant observations to clients and authorised team members.




- Manage appointment time effectively while never compromising animal welfare to meet a schedule.
