Careers at Glowing

Grow with us. Groom with purpose.

Glowing Mobile Pet Spa is a locally owned mobile grooming company in Raleigh, and we're just getting started. We're building a team that shares one belief: every dog deserves to be treated like our own.

No openings yet. Applications are open.

We expect full-time and part-time groomer roles to open within the next 6 to 8 months. Applications we receive before then will be strongly considered before we review any other candidates.

Where we are

Early days, big plans.

You are here. Expansion is the goal.

We're in the early stages of our company, and that's what makes this a meaningful time to join. Our goal is to set a new standard for pet grooming, and expansion is part of the plan.

The groomers who join us now will help shape what that standard looks like, from how we care for every dog to how we treat each other.

What we stand for
Every dog is treated like it's our own.
Customer service first

No matter what. Every client, every dog, every visit.

Trust and honesty

We say what we mean and do what we say, with our clients and with each other.

Transparency

Clear expectations, open conversations, and no surprises, for clients and for our team.

Who we're looking for

Heart first. We'll teach the rest.

We want people we can teach our brand, our identity, and our values. Grooming experience is recommended but not required.

Committed to learning

You want to keep getting better, and you welcome coaching.

Independent

You can run your day on your own and take pride in the work.

Takes direction well

You listen, ask good questions, and put feedback to work.

Quick on your feet

Dogs, weather, and schedules change. You adjust and keep your calm.

A team player

You lift up the people around you and win together.

If you bring the heart and the drive, we'll teach you the craft, our brand, and the values behind everything we do.

What we're building for our team

A workplace that sets the standard.

We give our clients and their dogs our very best, and our goal is to do the same for our team. We aspire to build the workplace the grooming industry measures itself against. That commitment is uncompromising, and it covers health care, pay, flexibility, and the personal moments life brings. When you have what you need to live your personal life well, you can bring that spark to work and groom with passion and joy, knowing your work matters.

Health care

Health care is a human right.

As Glowing grows, we're committed to helping every team member get access to quality health care. It's a core part of the benefits we're building.

Pay

Pay that grows with you

Starting pay is based on experience. From day one, you'll have a personal growth plan with clear pathways to speed up your learning and get your pay where it should be.

Flexibility

Built around real life

Full-time and part-time roles, and schedules we aim to build around the people doing the work, with room for the personal moments that matter.

Training

Learning never stops

Ongoing training, hands-on coaching, and team building built into how we learn together.

Feedback

Feedback goes both ways

Constructive feedback for you, and real opportunities for you to speak up. Every voice is heard.

You, not a number

No quotas. No KPIs.

You're an individual, and we'll treat you as one. Success here looks like happy dogs, happy clients, and a team that keeps growing.

Full details of pay and benefits are shared with every candidate before any offer.

Your voice matters

You see what we can't.

You'll be hands-on with our clients and their dogs every day, which makes your feedback one of the most valuable things we have. We're locally owned and operated, not a national chain, so we can listen and change course quickly.

We believe in employee rights, we believe in the rights of every person, and we believe everyone deserves a real opportunity.

1You notice something on the job: a client need, a better way, a dog who'd do better with a change.
2You tell us, in a regular check-in or any time it can't wait.
3We talk it through together and decide fast, because we're local.
4The change shows up in how every Glowing groomer works.
