Let your Bury portfolio do the talking

Your profile shows the sessions you offer, where you groom and the pets you take. Your posts are what bring owners near Walmersley to it.

Your grooms, in photos and video

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

A feed that starts close to home

Petme opens on posts from people near the viewer. A groom you share from Brandlesholme reaches your part of Bury before it reaches anyone farther out.

From a post to your profile

An owner who likes a post can follow you, open your profile and see the grooming menu you offer in Bury.

Where you groom

Where you groom in Bury

Each session in Bury 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 Bury.

At your place

Owners in Bury 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 Walmersley chooses how much of Bury 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.

Why groom on Petme

Made for professional groomers in Bury

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 Bury

  1. 1. Become a Petme sitter

    Download the Petme app, build your sitter profile with the Bury 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

Dog grooming jobs in Bury

What sitters in Bury ask before applying to groom on Petme.

Are dog grooming jobs hiring near me in Bury?
Petme takes grooming applications in Bury 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 Elton to Walmersley.
Does Petme have dog grooming assistant jobs in Bury?
No. Petme groomers in Bury 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 Bury?
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 Bury once accepted.
How do I get dog grooming clients in Bury?
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 Brandlesholme and Chesham can see your grooms, follow you, open your profile and message you.
How much do dog groomers make in Bury on Petme?
It depends on the prices you set. Grooming salons in the UK typically charge £35 to £45 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 Bury 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 Bury, you can still offer other pet care as an approved Petme sitter and apply for grooming later.
How do I get dog grooming experience that counts on Petme?
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 Bury applicants back those months with a certificate or diploma, an employer reference, or a link to their website or social account.
