Good afternoon!!!!! Happy Memorial Day!!!

Just wanted to update on our staffing situation!

We are fully staffed again!!! Yay!!!! We have 3 groomers our bathers and hopefully a receptionist starting soon!!!

Please be patient with the new staff as they are learning! Starting a new job can be so overwhelming and I don’t want to put to much on them at once, so as they learn and you notice they possibly missed something on your pet or maybe was very nervous helping you check in/out please remember, you was a new employee at one time! It is no fun! That is probably why I never changed jobs often. lol I absolutely hate being the new person! Please if something isn’t up to our standards let me know, so that I can help them in that area a little more!!!

With that being said…… We now have openings much sooner than I possibly told you if you called or messaged. So if you still need to get your dogs groomed, send me a message! We can help you out!!! I tried to reach out to the ones who I could remember that needed a spot, if I missed anyone I’m sorry!

P.S the groomer isn’t new…. she has experience!!!!!

Thank you so much for your help and kindness, patience and love throughout this whole ordeal!!!

Change can sometimes be a good thing!!!! Let’s pray this time it is!!!!

We have filled this position!!!!! We actually had an overwhelming response with lots of great people!!! Thank you to everyone who has applied!!! Alright folks!!!! Now that we are working through all the changes taking place, I want to thank each and every one of you for your patience and understanding!!!!

Also, we would like to hire 1 good bather, this position is a fast paced position working Tuesday -Friday possibly some Mondays some days could be long like 12 hours we try not to do that, but sometimes we have too! Job requirements:

Must be dependable just for reference I have only “ called off”2 days of work in 27 years. We do the schedule of clients based on employees here to help cover schedule! Dependability is a must!!! I cannot stress that enough!

Must have a dedicated love for dogs!!! Most of the time these dogs really don’t want to be here so there for they may not behave, you must be patient and loving at all times. NO EXCEPTIONS

Must be able to work independently and under pressure!

Must be able to communicate with other staff and be a team player!

Must be detail oriented! These dogs need good baths, some may need medicated baths, some may need desheds, etc. you need to be able to see these things and do what the dog needs without us telling you, of course we will train you to see these things but you need to recognize these details and do what needs done!

A lot of people think we play with puppies all day, let me tell you, that is not the case….. although we do get to play with puppies there is much more to the job than that!!! It is not always fun and games and can be very stressful at times.

Must be able to run programs off a cell phone and or tablet. Must be able to read and follow directions rather written or verbal.

We try to have fun through out our day so must have a sense of humor, we will spend a lot of time with each other and it helps us get through our days!!!

Pay will be discussed upon an interview! I do give raises based on performance, dependability, etc.

If this sounds like something you may be interested in please message this page with your info!!!

Folks, share this!!!! I really need 1 good dependable person to join our team!!!!

No phone calls please!!!!

Those of you that applied for the other positions if you are interested in this please send me a message!

Good morning!!!! Just want to update everyone on a few changes!!!!

I have reached out to several of you and am still in the process of contacting the rest of you, keeping staff here has been a challenge since the day I opened and unfortunately everytime a staff member leaves it affects all of us, you and me, we are currently going through this again, this is definitely the hardest part of running a business, we have changed our schedules, changed procedures etc trying to create the best work environment possible for our staff with a schedule that fits you the clients needs, that obviously didn’t help a thing, so this will be the final changes made, as we move forward with literally less than 1/2 the staff we should have this will be our new normal. It is not fair to these pets to have different staff everytime they come visit as change makes them nervous. It’s not fair to you the client to deal with people who are training every time you come and it’s not fair to me to continue wasting my time training people investing in people changing everything to please the staff etc. just for them to leave and I have to do it all over again with new staff. So I am asking for your patience and understanding moving forward with just me the owner, my brother who is currently part time until October, and my children assisting with check in /check outs etc. our schedule is basically set for the year at the beginning of every year and this schedule was based off 3 full time groomers 2 full time bathers and sometimes a floater to fill in and help where and when needed, so I will need to adjust this schedule going forward as it literally is just me and my brother 2 days a week. I’m excited for this opportunity as it will be much more like how I intended for this business to be when I opened, calm, stress free grooming experience for these babies, however, it will be a learning curve for all of us. Please be patient as we navigate the new normal and if you have any concerns please reach out.

If you have any info for this or a contact at the school that can help please let me know!!!

Good Saturday morning!!!!

Boarding season is upon us and I just want to put out a couple reminders, updates, changes, etc!

Boarding for the summer of 2025 is filling up
quick! Please make sure your pet is current on all vaccines at least 1 week before their stay, they will need a bordetella, 5-way/parvo booster and rabies, some vets recommend getting a bordetella vaccine every 6 months and this is a great idea for pets that get boarded to help keep kennel cough away so please ask your vet what they recommend!!!!

During peak season we run a very tight boarding schedule for the pups in our care so that everyday the pups are with us, they get plenty of daycare time, outside playtime, And exercise, as well as the staff has plenty of time to clean, disinfect, sanitize, indoors and outdoors, feed, water, etc. with this being said on the days the grooming salon is closed which is Saturday, Sunday, Monday, we will have pick up/drop off times for those days. If you need to pick -up/drop off your pet on one of those days the hours for that will be 7-8am and 7-8pm. In the past we have just done it by appointment, however, it interferes with the pups scheduled so to prevent that these will be the only times available for pick -up/ drop off on Saturday, Sunday, or Monday! If you are picking up in the pm you will incur a daycare fee for the care provided on pick up day!

We will be collecting boarding fees at drop off effective immediately. If that is not going to work for you please let me know immediately as I need to make special arrangements, the reason for this change is because sometimes my teenage children or husband will assist with you getting your pets at pick up and they do not know a thing a bout our software lol. Also saves time for the staff on pick up day because if we run your card that day we have to run our reports, close out the day, reconcile,etc. it’s a lot for just a few payments so its just best if we collect at drop off when the grooming salon is open and we already have to do a bunch of closing paperwork lol!

If you are planning vacation and have not booked your pets stay now is the time!!!!!

Have a great rest of your day!!!!

Much love!!
Barks & Bows Staff!!
