Team
Hiring, rostering, responsibilities and paying people fairly as the business grows.
Stage 3
Put the work in a usable order
Arrange stages and handovers without promising the same person or resource twice.
Stage 5
Test the next investment
Compare a different order, more equipment and another person against the same demand.
Stage 1
Choose the role you need
Identify the work another person can release and the training time you must provide.
Stage 2
Set the working and pay arrangements
Check the employment relationship and current Australian obligations before agreeing pay.
Stage 3
Build skills and responsibilities
Record independent work, supervised work and clear handovers.
Go deeper when you need it
How should a grooming team divide the work?
Give every stage an owner while keeping the dog’s care joined up.
How do you keep grooming standards consistent across a team?
Define the care, result and checkpoints every groomer shares.
How do you stop client history living in one person’s head?
Turn personal memory into a useful shared care record.
Stage 4
Arrange the working week
Match skills and breaks to demand, including leave and shared equipment.
Stage 5
Review quality and incidents
Use factual records to change supervision, service permissions or the next booking.
When is a dog grooming business ready to hire?
Booked out for weeks isn't the signal to hire. You're ready when the overflow repeats, you have hours to supervise, and your margin can fund the training dip.
Is your dog groomer an employee or a contractor?
An ABN and a signed contract don't settle it. How Fair Work's whole-of-relationship test decides a groomer's status in Australia, and why super is a separate check.

Seglo takes the booking, holds the right groomer and the right equipment, and keeps the day moving.
