Scenthound is on a mission to make routine dog care simple and accessible. We’re not just grooming dogs — we’re creating healthier lives for them and building a team that thrives on purpose and connection. As a Scenter Manager , you'll be the heartbeat of your location — leading a team, delighting customers, and ensuring every dog leaves happier and healthier than when they came in.

The Role

As Scenter Manager, you’ll own the daily rhythm of your store — ensuring operational excellence, a best‑in‑class customer experience, and a strong, motivated team. This is a hands‑on role where you’ll lead by example, build a positive culture, and drive performance. If you’re passionate about people, pups, and creating great experiences, this is the role for you.

  • Lead, coach, and inspire your team to consistently deliver exceptional service
  • Foster a culture of accountability, positivity, and teamwork
  • Support hiring, onboarding, training, and performance feedback
• Operations & Customer Experience
  • Ensure smooth daily operations and adherence to the Scenthound Playbook
  • Create a welcoming, hospitality‑focused environment for dogs and their owners
  • Uphold cleanliness, safety, and quality standards in both front‑of‑house and back‑of‑house
  • Drive member conversions through soft sales and relationship‑building
  • Educate customers on membership options and the value of routine care
  • Manage store performance metrics: membership growth, service quality, and team productivity

What We’re Looking For

• High EQ and a servant leadership mindset
• Experience in customer‑facing environments (hospitality, retail, fitness, or service industries)
• Passion for creating memorable customer experiences
• Comfortable leading a team and holding others accountable
• Organized and detail‑oriented, with the ability to manage operations and people
• Sales experience is a plus but not required — we’ll teach the playbook!
• Paid Time Off
• Professional development opportunities and in‑market training
• Scenthound is a growing brand with a clear path for advancement. High‑performing Scenter Managers may be eligible for future Area Manager roles or other leadership opportunities within the organization.
