In the case of dog grooming, the industry is largely unregulated and there is no legal requirement for education in order to become a groomer.

Your day job pays the bills, and therefore takes priority over other things in your life \u2013 as it should!<\/p>\n<p>The great thing about dog grooming is that once you have completed your training, you can take baby steps into the industry to get a feel for the work. This way, you won\u2019t be totally overwhelmed with your busy life.<\/p>\n<p>Because dog grooming is such a hands-on profession, you\u2019ll need to gain some experience. Knowing best practices and proper techniques is highly valuable, of course, but employers and clients want to see that you can handle any size or breed of dog, and know what to do in emergency situations. You can get these skills down pat (no pun intended) through experience as a dog grooming assistant, job shadowing, or even offering grooming services to friends and family.<\/p>\n<p>You don\u2019t need to fill up your schedule with this, either. If you work five days a week, spend a couple of evenings working as a grooming assistant and gaining valuable experience. Or, spend a few hours each weekend bathing and brushing some furry friends that live nearby. You\u2019ll have the best of both worlds!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Start_a_dog_grooming_business\"><\/span>Start a dog grooming business<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Many aspiring dog groomers pursue this line of work with the ultimate goal of being their own boss.

Many dog grooming schools realize that business ownership is highly desirable for professional groomers (and many aspiring groomers don\u2019t have prior business knowledge). So, this training is built into your dog grooming classes \u2013 which saves you from splurging on a separate business course!<\/p>\n<p>Once you know <a href=\"https:\/\/www.doggroomingcourse.com\/2016\/06\/dog-grooming-business-name\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the ins and outs of starting your own business<\/a>, you can make it happen for yourself and actually keep your day job while doing so. Many dog groomers operate their businesses out of small salons, mobile studios, or even their homes. You certainly <strong>don\u2019t<\/strong> need to work full-time in a grooming studio.<\/p>\n<p>You can also choose how many clients you to take on, which brings us to our final point\u2026<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Narrow_down_your_clientele\"><\/span>Narrow down your clientele<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Business owners have a lot of control both over the hours they work and the amount of clients they take on. As a professional dog groomer with your own business, you can schedule appointments at your own convenience. Many groomers want as many clients as possible to increase their income and experience, but if you already have a day job, this may not be the best route for you.<\/p>\n<p>Only take on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.doggroomingcourse.com\/2017\/05\/6-things-know-dog-grooming-clients\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">as many\u00a0clients per week as you can<\/a> while still keeping a healthy balance with your full-time job and other commitments.
