Life doesn't always give you 48 hours notice. When something unexpected comes up and you need boarding for your dog today or tomorrow, call Animal Friends Pet Care at (850) 257-5776. We do our best to accommodate last-minute requests, and we understand that emergencies, sudden travel, and plan changes are just part of life.
We've been serving Panama City and Bay County families since 2013. If we have availability, we will do everything we can to get your dog checked in quickly, safely, and with as little stress as possible for both of you.
How Last-Minute Boarding Works at Our Facility
- Call (850) 257-5776 to check same-day or next-day availability — this is the fastest path.
- Have your dog's Rabies and Bordetella vaccine records ready. If not on hand, contact your vet — digital copies are fine.
- Bring food if you can. Even a portion of their regular food helps with the transition.
- Drop off during business hours. Check-in takes 10-15 minutes — we'll get the paperwork done fast.
Why Last-Minute Boarders Choose Us
- We don't charge a premium or surcharge for short-notice stays — same rates as planned bookings
- Private suites mean there's no "group" dynamic to disrupt — your dog slots right in
- Live camera access from day one — you can check in on your dog within hours of drop-off
- Experienced team that handles new arrivals calmly, even anxious or first-time boarders
- Medication administration included at no charge — we handle complex medical routines
