Written by Andy Martin
Mobile dog grooming. Husky puppy sticking its tongue out.

Are you thinking about taking your career in a new direction? You probably haven’t thought about mobile dog grooming. Here’s why you should:

Why develop a career in mobile dog grooming?

  • Mobile dog grooming is growing in popularity. People want a service that fits in with their busy lives. You can make money by offering flexible dog grooming in a client’s home.
  • You can choose your own hours and be your own boss. You could charge between £25 and £70 an hour.
  • You’ll have the best colleagues in the world. Spending all day working with furry friends will make the hard work worth it.
  • Experience the job satisfaction of seeing dogs returned to their owners, happily washed and groomed.

What does it take to be a mobile dog groomer?

  • It won’t be glamorous. If you don’t mind getting your hands dirty, this will be the job for you.
  • You need to have attention to detail.
  • You’ll need lots of patience with dogs that just won’t stay still.

How do you become a mobile dog groomer?

Finding work as a mobile dog groomer will be much easier if you have a qualification. Stonebridge’s dog grooming distance learning courses are flexible, there’s no time limit and you don’t need to give up your job to study.
