Becoming a professional groomer is a great and rewarding career option!
Not only can your earnings be excellent but your schedule can be flexible to accommodate your current life situation.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) has predicted that job openings for animal caretakers in general, including pet groomers, will increase by about 34% between 2020 and 2030, a much faster than average growth rate (www.bls.gov).
Most groomers are employed but work on commission which allows them to play a big part in their earnings and make $50,000 to $80,000 per year.
Besides Key Skills like Attention to detail, physical stamina, compassion, patience and customer service you will need a love and understanding of animals to succeed as a pet groomer.
Imagine a life where you spend your days with adorable pups, have free reign to showcase your creativity daily and get well compensated for your efforts — sounds like a win-win if you ask us! If you’re passionate about taking care of dogs and are keen on a field that allows you to work with them daily, then dog grooming may well be the perfect fit for you.
