About Bowie Barker
Dogs make us happy, and we want to return that love by keeping them just as happy and healthy. That’s why we started Bowie Barker — a new kind of dog bath and barber reimagining what grooming can be. At Bowie, we combine quality, care, and convenience to make the grooming experience better for dogs and their people. Whether pet parents pop in for a DIY wash or trust our skilled grooming pros for a full-service experience, we make every visit stress-free, safe, and full of tail wags.
About The Role We’re seeking an experienced Dog Groomer to join our Culver City team. The ideal candidate is skilled, dependable, and passionate about creating an exceptional grooming experience for both dogs and their parents. You’ll work closely with a supportive team, uphold Bowie’s grooming and safety standards, and play an important role in helping us continue to grow and refine the blueprint that defines Bowie Barker.
Responsibilities
Perform all grooming services from start to finish, including cutting, clipping, trimming, bathing, brushing, and dematting, drying, nail grinding and clipping, and gland expression
Communicate with clients to understand preferences, ensure satisfaction, and provide educated upsells of our add-ons and products that benefit their pup and enhance their overall experience
Maintain a clean, calm, and safe environment for both dogs and team members
Help train, coach, and support bathers and junior groomers as needed
Ensuring the physical safety of team members and dogs throughout service

Strong understanding of breed cuts, coat care, and dog behavior
Excellent client communication and teamwork skills
Must have your own grooming tools (clippers, blades, scissors, brushes, combs, etc.) — we provide quarterly tool maintenance
Able to stand for long hours (no heavy lifting — all tubs have walk-up ramps and tables are hydraulic!)
Someone who’s always looking to elevate their skills and grow with the brand
Flexible and eager to learn the Bowie standard systems and processes, including safety protocols, quality expectations, service timing, and overall flow
A positive, reliable, and coachable attitude — we value consistency, professionalism, and kindness as much as skill
