Join Our Team
The experience offered by Le Pawsh is continuously evolving and pushes the boundaries of what it means for pet parents to care for their dogs. Our unwavering dedication to safety, coupled with the mastery of the grooming art, cultivates a warm and inviting environment trusted by pet owners traveling from across the Bay Area, Vacaville, Sacramento, Half Moon Bay, Carmel-by-the-Sea, and beyond. At Le Pawsh, we ensure that our team members have access to everything they need to perform their absolute best in their roles and that they are in an environment that cultivates creativity. We fully understand the toll this physically demanding job can take on the body and the unique stress that often accompanies working with challenging dogs. Furthermore, we live in an unfortunate reality where there is a lack of appreciation for this significant craft, held by some pet parents.
With determination and commitment, we stand to change this perception.
Le Pawsh team members apprentice under Shelby, APG, Owner and Master Stylist, gaining essential knowledge and skills that will last a lifetime. Additionally, our team members are trained in Pet CPR, educated in dog skin and coat science, and introduced to natural and holistic methods of pet care that prioritize preventative care and the well-being of dogs. Our Stylists are also enrolled in comprehensive IPG certification programs and given continued education opportunities to keep up with the latest trends in grooming and advance their knowledge. Le Pawsh recognizes the immense effort and artistic ability required by groomers, and we strive to elevate the appreciation of this specialty across the families and communities we serve.
Our pay to our team members appropriately reflects our commitment and understanding. Furthermore, our full-time team members have access to health and dental benefits. As Le Pawsh grows, so does our ability to give back and uplift our team.
Created by a groomer, for groomers, and the love of dogs.
