We are looking for 2-3 reliable drivers to do pick-ups and drop-offs! We provide a large waterproof holder that you can place the cat carriers in so that your car stays clean.
Requirements:
*Clean driving record
*Presentable car
*Presentable personal appearance (piercings, tattoos, and dyed hair are fine, as long as you have good hygiene)
*Ability to ask customers a short pre-defined set of questions about their cat at pick-up and read a list of our notes about their cat at drop-off
*Ability to take payment using a mobile payment app
*Ability to lift up to 30 lbs (we have very some big Maine Coon cats that we groom)
*Ability to drive while hearing constant meowing without getting annoyed or upset
*Commitment to not playing music or other sounds while driving the cats (it stresses them out)
*Commitment to not using air fresheners of any kind (hanging trees, vent clips, Febreeze spray, etc.) because the artificial scents are very upsetting to cats. Cleaning your car ahead of time with mildly scented products is ok.
What we provide:
*Waterproof carrier holder for cat carriers
*Reimbursement for back seat cover, if desired
*Uniform shirt and/or windbreaker if desired (white shirt and black pants also fine)
*Snacks at the spa when you drop off cats
*Employee discount for grooming services
*$25 monthly allowance for car washes and other maintenance
Please note that this not a full-time position! We typically pick up 2-4 cats per day right now, and we are hiring and training groomers right now so that we can double that amount within the next couple months. At most this will be just a little extra money for someone.
Pick-up times vary based on the appointment bookings, but generally occur between 7:30am and 11am. Drop-offs usually happen between 3pm and 8pm. We know our schedules well in advance (usually 2 months ahead of time), so it is easy to plan for.
Please also note that we cannot hire anyone who is allergic to cats:(
Please also note that sometimes cats pee or poop during the drive! If that happens on a long drive, you will be expected to pull over and do a minimal amount of clean-up to make the cat more comfortable. We provide a kit of plastic bags, latex gloves, hand sanitizer, and paper towels for you to keep in your car.
If it happens on a short drive, we will take care of it when you arrive.
Resume appreciated but not required.
Please tell us about any of the following (helpful but not required):
*Any experience you have dealing with customers directly and making them feel welcomed/comfortable
*Experience with cats (living with a cat, caring for someone else's cat, etc.)
*Experience handling cash and taking payment
Our interview process looks like this:
*Our administrator will email you to set up a time to do a trial run with one of our cat groomers.
*You will pick up the groomer and go with them to the customer's house. The groomer will show you the whole process, and you can ask questions.
*You will get paid $19/hour for your trial run (because we don't want to waste your time)!
There is also potential to grow within the organization in non-driving roles if desired.
