About Petco

We are proud to be the place where pets go and where pet people go. For over 60 years, we have been dedicated to improving lives by doing what's right for pets and people. Our core values drive us to put the needs of pets and pet parents at the center of everything we do, fostering a culture where everyone can be their whole self.

We are a team of 29,000+ strong, nurturing the pet-human bond in more than 1,500 stores across the U.S., Mexico, and Puerto Rico, alongside hundreds of Vetco Total Care hospitals and preventive care clinics. Through our Petco Love initiative, founded in 1999, we support thousands of local animal welfare groups and have helped find homes for approximately 7 million animals.

About the Role

As a Pet Stylist, you will be the heart of our grooming salon, providing professional grooming services that ensure every pet looks and feels their best. This role is more than just a job; it is an opportunity to showcase your creativity, passion for animals, and expertise in a dynamic environment.

Your day will be defined by your commitment to the safety, comfort, and well-being of every animal in your care. You will perform expert-level grooming services, from bathing and styling to nail trimming and ear cleaning, always adhering to breed standards and company policies. Beyond the technical skills, you will be a trusted advisor to pet parents, offering custom recommendations on grooming maintenance and at-home care to promote the overall health of their companions.

We offer a supportive career path with opportunities for growth, allowing you to advance from a Pet Stylist to roles such as Grooming Salon Leader, Grooming Mentor, or Grooming Instructor. You will work with state-of-the-art equipment and have access to all necessary supplies, ensuring you have everything you need to succeed.

Our Culture

At Petco, we believe in the universal truths of pet parenthood—the boundless boops, missing slippers, and late-night zoomies. We celebrate the journey of pet parenthood through our experiences, products, and services. We are stronger as one team, bringing our unique superpowers and championing authenticity to drive success. We invite you to join a community that is passionate about pets and committed to making a real difference.

Equal Opportunity
