About Us
At Pets at Home, we’re passionate about pets and it shows. Our Pet Care Centres across the UK include grooming salons, retail stores, and veterinary practices, all dedicated to delivering the very best care for pets and the people who love them.
We believe in creating welcoming, supportive environments where team members can thrive. If you share our love for pets and our commitment to excellence, we’d love to meet you.
The Role
Our Assistant Stylists are key to the success of our Pets Grooming salons. You'll deliver high standards of pet care, demonstrating a basic understanding of dog grooming techniques, handling, equipment use, and pre-grooming prep.
We provide training, skills, and knowledge to help you deliver excellent service, reflecting our goal of being the 'Best Pet Care Business in the World'. We offer competitive pay, comprehensive training, development opportunities, including Earn as You Learn programmes and skill-based pay enhancements.

* Experience working with or handling dogs in a professional grooming or pet care environment is desirable but not essential. Bathing and prepping your own dog does not qualify as professional experience. Experience in a customer-facing environment is preferred.
* Preferably experienced in target-driven environments, but willing to learn.
Why Join Us?

* Attractive pay plus commission, subject to targets
* iPet Level 3 training programme and qualification
* 28 days paid annual leave, rising to 33 days after 2 years (including bank holidays, pro-rata)
* Extra day off for your birthday
