🐾 EXCITING NEWS FROM TINA’S BARKING LOUNGE! 🐾

We are so excited to officially welcome Katie to the Tina’s Barking Lounge team! 🎉✂️🐶

Katie will officially be starting with us Monday, and I’m so excited for this next chapter for our little salon! After meeting her and seeing her work firsthand, I truly feel like she is going to be a wonderful fit for our salon and our clients. 💗

With Katie joining us, we’ll be able to accommodate even more of our furry friends!

🐾 Emily will continue grooming our small-breed clients and giving them all the love and care they’re used to.

🐾 Katie will be grooming both small AND large breeds, which means we’ll once again have more availability for our bigger pups—including those big fluffy babies! 🐕‍🦺🐩

I’m incredibly excited about this team and what’s ahead for Tina’s Barking Lounge. Thank you to all of our amazing clients for your patience, support, and encouragement while we worked through some recent changes. It means more than you know. 💕

Please help give Katie a big warm welcome!

🐾 EXPERIENCED DOG GROOMER WANTED

📍 Cameron/Spout Springs area (off of Buffalo Lakes area)

Tina's Barking Lounge is looking to add an experienced, dependable dog groomer to our small home-based salon!

We are a calm, one-on-one grooming environment with an established clientele, and I’m looking for someone who genuinely loves what they do and takes pride in providing safe, compassionate care to every dog that comes through the door.

✨ What I’m looking for:
• Experienced and confident groomer who can work independently
• Comfortable grooming a variety of breeds and sizes
• Experience with anxious, senior, difficult-to-groom, or special-needs dogs is not required, but would be a wonderful bonus!
• Patient, gentle, safety-focused handling
• Reliable and professional
• Comfortable communicating directly with clients and managing your own appointments
• Able to provide quality grooming while treating every pet with love, compassion, and respect

This position would start at 2-3 days per week, with the opportunity to build your clientele and potentially grow into a more full-time schedule at your own pace.

We already have clients looking for appointments, so there is an opportunity to begin building a schedule right away.

🐶 Interested? Please send me a private message with:
Your grooming experience, breeds/sizes you’re comfortable working with, general availability, and photos of your grooming work.

I’m not looking to simply fill a spot — finding someone who is the right fit for our salon and our clients is extremely important to me. ❤️

Please feel free to share or tag an experienced groomer who may be interested!
