I bath up to 13 dogs per shift in a first-come, first-serve system, managing time effectively to ensure all dogs were completed by mid-day.
Followed groomer instructions, performing tasks such as partial blow drying, but excluding nails, ear cleaning, and full blow drying.
Provided dogs with water and treats as needed, ensuring their comfort throughout the grooming process.
Cleaned and sanitized my station at the end of each shift, and clean dog crates as necessary.
Worked efficiently within the time constraints of a 15-hour work week, consistently delivering quality care under pressure.
