Dog Groomer – Commission-Based (1099)
Earn 75% Commission • Groom in a Private Room • Set Your Own Schedule
Are you an experienced dog groomer looking for freedom, flexibility, and a peaceful grooming environment — not the chaos of a busy salon floor?
Four-Legged Fun Zone is seeking a skilled groomer interested in a 1099 commission-only role, working in your own private grooming room inside our established Everett pet care facility.
This role is ideal for groomers who want to control their schedule and income while providing calm, quality grooming.
⭐ What Makes Us Different
✔ A Private Grooming Room That’s Truly Yours
- No shared tables.
- No competing dryers.
- No loud grooming floor.
You groom in a quiet, enclosed room with door that is completely your space during your selected hours.

- We do not stack dogs or run assembly-line grooming.
- You maintain a calm, consistent pace with full attention on one dog at a time.
✔ Flexible Scheduling Within Our Grooming Windows
- You choose your preferred schedule within these available grooming hours:
- Saturday–Tuesday: 2 PM – 7 PM
- Wednesday–Friday: 8 AM – 7 PM
- Pick short shifts, long shifts, or 1–5 days per week — whatever fits your life and goals.
✔ High Earning Potential — 75% Commission + 100% Tips
Most medium grooms average $78.75, and you keep 75%.
This is a 1099 commission-only role, meaning:
- No hourly wages
- You pay your own taxes
- You receive a 1099 at year-end
Perfect for groomers who prefer independence and control over their earnings.
✔ We Bring You Clients — and You Can Bring Yours Too
- Our daycare, walking, training programs, and online reputation generate a steady stream of grooming requests, so you never need to market or chase leads.
- If you already have regular clients, you’re welcome to bring them as well.
