About The Pets Workshop
The Pets Workshop is a Singapore pet grooming chain with 4 outlets island-wide. We groom to a standard, not to a clock — our team includes master-groomer-credentialled staff, and we run our own training academy. We are looking for groomers who care about the craft and want to keep getting better at it.

Handle pets safely and calmly, including anxious, senior, or uncooperative animals
Consult with owners on styling, coat maintenance, and home care between visits
Keep accurate service records and grooming notes in our system
