Applicants looking for short-term work or “just a job”
Individuals with other part-time jobs — this position is intended to grow into a full-time role
Anyone who has applied to this position in the past — we received an overwhelming number of applications previously and, while we couldn’t respond to everyone due to the demands of running a growing business, we are looking for very specific talent.

Friendly, patient, and warm with both two-legged and four-legged guests
Calm under pressure — you help keep things grounded during busy moments
Highly organized and proactive — you can gracefully juggle front desk, spa, and boutique tasks
Excited to be part of a mission-driven, tight-knit, cat-loving team
Your Key Responsibilities:
Greet clients and their cats with warmth, patience, and professionalism
Manage appointment scheduling, confirmations, check-ins, invoicing, and client communications
Assist boutique shoppers — recommending cat products and processing purchases
Keep the spa and boutique tidy, serene, and well-stocked
Support groomers and fellow team members to ensure smooth daily operations (this may include lifting heavy cats or litter)
Compensation & Growth:
Starting pay: $24/hour
Part-time position with clear opportunity for advancement
Performance-based raises may lead to eligibility for health and retirement benefits
Long-term potential for leadership roles for the right candidate
Bonus Points If You Have:
Experience in pet care, grooming, retail, or boutique settings
Knowledge of feline behavior, wellness, or body language
Strong customer service and communication skills
Managerial skills or leadership experience — and you enjoy taking charge and helping a team run smoothly
Why You’ll Love Working Here:
A peaceful, cat-centered workspace surrounded by fellow feline fans
A supportive, passionate team that shares your love for animals
A chance to help people find beautiful, curated items for their cats
The satisfaction of making a meaningful difference for cats and their humans every day
To Apply:
Please send your resume and a short note introducing yourself. We’d love to hear about your favorite cat (past, present, or dream cat!) and why you’d like to join the Fur Cat’s Sake family.
Kindly note: It may take us 5–7 days to respond to applications. Thank you so much for your patience and understanding!
