Pet groomer jobs in Dubai

Pet groomer jobs in Dubai, where JVC and Dubai Marina owners see your work first

Petme is a pet-care app and a social network. Post photos and videos of your grooms and the home feed shows them to people nearby first, so owners around Al Barsha or Business Bay can follow you and open your profile.

First you become an approved Petme sitter in Dubai, then you send the grooming application from the app.

How Dubai owners come across your grooming

An owner in Mirdif opens Petme and the home feed starts with posts from people near them. When those posts include your grooms, they can like them, follow you and send you a message.

Your grooms, in photos and video

A clip of a de-shedding session or a photo of a finished trim shows owners in Dubai more than a price list does. Post them as you go.

Nearby owners see it first

The Petme home feed shows posts from people nearby first, so the owners around you, in Dubai Marina or JVC for instance, come across your work early.

Your profile, one tap away

From any of your posts, an owner near Arabian Ranches reaches your profile and can send you a message.

Where you groom

Your grooming patch in Dubai

Each session in Dubai happens where you say: at your own place, at the owner's home within the radius you set, or both, with the owner choosing on each request. A short radius keeps you close to home; a longer one covers more of Dubai.

At your place

Owners in Dubai bring their pet to you. Your address is not shown on the request; you share it with the owner in the app chat.

At the owner's home

You travel with your kit inside a radius of 3, 5, 10 or 20 km from home, so a groomer based near JVC chooses how much of Dubai to cover.

Both

Offer both and your profile shows both options. Prices stay per session and dog size either way, and a custom offer adjusts one before payment.

Your grooming menu

Three sessions, two extras, every price yours

Petme sets no grooming rate in Dubai. Switch on the sessions you offer, price each one per dog size, add a price for cats if you groom them, and choose whether the extras cost anything.

Full groom

Your price per session, for each dog size and for cats

Bath and brush

A lighter session, with its own price per dog size

Nails only

A short nail session at a price you choose

De-shedding (extra)

Why groom on Petme

What Dubai groomers get on Petme

Prices you set

Each session carries your own price per dog size. If a coat needs more work than the request suggested, you send a custom offer before the owner pays.

Hours you open

No shifts and no rota. Requests can only use the start times you open in the app, so grooming fits around a salon job, studies or other sitting work.

A reviewed standard

Every Petme groomer is an approved sitter who also passed the grooming review: paid experience, proof and before-and-after work.

How to start

How to start grooming on Petme in Dubai

  1. 1. Become a Petme sitter

    Download the Petme app, build your sitter profile with the Dubai areas you cover and pass ID verification. You need to be 18 or over.

  2. 2. Open the grooming application

    Start it from the grooming tile in your dashboard. Add your paid grooming experience, where you worked and at least one proof: a certificate or diploma, an employer reference, or a website or social link.

  3. 3. Show your work

    Upload 3 to 6 before-and-after pairs of pets you groomed: the same pet, a similar angle and no filters. Confirm the 3 declarations and send it.

  4. 4. Set up and post

    Once approved, choose where you groom, your home-visit radius, the pets you accept, your menu prices and your start times, then start posting your grooms.

Common questions

Pet groomer jobs in Dubai

Questions groomers in Dubai ask before they apply.

Are there pet groomer jobs in Dubai for experienced groomers?
Petme takes grooming applications in Dubai from approved Petme sitters with at least 6 months of paid, professional grooming. Instead of a vacancy list, you set your own menu, your prices and the neighbourhoods you cover, from Dubai Marina to JVC.
What dog grooming experience does Petme accept in Dubai?
Paid work counts wherever you did it: in a salon, on your own or as a mobile groomer. Petme does not run grooming training, so Dubai applicants back those months with a certificate or diploma, an employer reference, or a link to their website or social account.
Are there dog grooming trainee jobs on Petme in Dubai?
No. Petme groomers in Dubai work for themselves: each one is an approved sitter who passed the grooming review with 6+ months of paid grooming. Assistant and trainee roles come from salons, and the paid months you spend in one count towards a later application.
What are the steps to groom on Petme in Dubai?
Become a Petme sitter first: be 18 or over, use the Petme app and pass ID verification. Then send the grooming application with your experience, one proof, 3 to 6 before-and-after pairs and 3 declarations. If it is not approved, you can apply again after 15 days and groom in Dubai once accepted.
How do I get dog grooming clients in Dubai?
Show your work where local owners already look. On Petme you post before-and-after photos and videos, and the home feed shows posts from people nearby first, so owners around Downtown Dubai and Arabian Ranches can see your grooms, follow you, open your profile and message you.
How much do pet groomers make in Dubai on Petme?
It depends on the prices you set. Grooming salons in Dubai typically charge AED 210 to AED 250 for a full groom of a medium dog, and you price your own menu with that in mind. Petme sets no grooming rate: each session (full groom, bath and brush, nails only) has its own price per dog size, and cats get their own price.
How much experience do dog grooming jobs in Dubai ask for?
At least 6 months of paid, professional grooming, plus a proof of it, before you can send the grooming application. While you build that experience in Dubai, you can still offer other pet care as an approved Petme sitter and apply for grooming later.
