Company Overview

Bark & Mane is a locally owned, professional mobile grooming company serving Central Virginia. We provide a premium, one-on-one grooming experience focused on comfort, safety, and overall pet well-being.

Our fully equipped mobile grooming vans are climate-controlled and designed to operate independently - no external water or power hookups required. Each van includes its own fresh and grey water system, heat, air conditioning, and professional grooming equipment, allowing groomers to deliver high-quality care right in the client's driveway.

We are a 100% cage-free, stress-reduced, wellness-focused grooming service, giving pets individualized attention from start to finish. Our spacious grooming vans allow pets to move comfortably and help groomers work efficiently while maintaining a calm, safe environment.

At Bark & Mane, we take pride in building long-term relationships with our clients and their pets through professionalism, compassion, and exceptional service.

Job Summary

At Bark & Mane, you'll make a real difference in the lives of pets and the families who love them.
