Detail-oriented dog bather with experience at multiple daycare facilities with a grooming department. I provide excellent care for pets under my care, ensuring pet welfare by inspecting for infections, matting and infestations. Able to communicate effectively with pet owners and provide comfort to nervous and senior pets with needs. Skilled in time management and maintaining a clean and organized workspace, I thrive in an environment that maintains order.
I was in charge of monitoring the doggy playgroup I was assigned to. My tasks included cleaning and feeding the dogs, watching for conflicts while engaging in play and cleaning the playgroups and play equipment.
I bathed bath and groom dogs, performing sanitary, paw pad and face trims on the required dogs. I handled scheduling in the grooming department, answering calls throughout my shift to schedule appointments. I would also answer any questions pertaining to grooming services or required shots, call clients before appointments and relay information in regard to the dog in my care.
I learned bathing and drying techniques such as how to properly bathe each coat type, deshedding, dematting and fluff drying. Alongside bathing duties i also helped maintain laundry throughout the day and gave assistance to front desk and kennel staff when able.
I was in charge of answering calls and questions in regards to our boarding and grooming departments. I handled client forms, scheduled appointments and dealt with transactions. After hours, I was in charge of cleaning, restocking, closing the drawer, filing away customers folders for the day and pulling for the next. I was also in charge of transferring information while going from physical to digital.
I started working as a Cashier, in charge of handling money and orders. When I became old enough, i began working in the kitchen, cooking food and preparing order. I would float between positions as needed, having days where i worked in morning prep, dealing with inventory and pre-portioned ingredients. I was promoted to team Lead in my last year, managing the shifts i worked and performing manager duties in the absence of one.
