Every groomer in Panama City will tell you the same thing: "We're booked 2 to 4 weeks out." We won't. Animal Friends Pet Care accepts walk-in grooming for dogs of all breeds and sizes — full grooms, bath and brush services, and $20 nail trims — with no appointment needed and no waiting weeks to get your dog looking and feeling their best.
We've been grooming Bay County dogs since 2013. Our salon at 2912 Transmitter Road is a professional facility, not a side booth at a pet store. Your dog is handled one-on-one by an experienced groomer, never left kenneled between bath, drying, and haircut steps — and never rushed into a cage to wait while other dogs are handled.

Why We Can Do Walk-Ins When No One Else Does
Most grooming salons are appointment-only because they overbook. They schedule 8-10 dogs per groomer per day, which means your dog sits in a kennel for 4-6 hours while they work through the queue. We run a different model. We limit bookings so that each groomer works one dog at a time, start to finish. That's what makes walk-ins possible — and it's also why your dog comes home genuinely unstressed instead of exhausted from hours of kennel time.

Full-Service, One Location
We're not just a grooming salon. Animal Friends Pet Care is Bay County's only full-service pet care facility where you can get walk-in grooming, book same-day daycare, or arrange boarding for tonight — all in one place. If you're dropping off for a walk-in groom and you have errands to run, your dog is in a professional facility with live camera access (free for every client) so you can check in from wherever you are.
FurPlan members get 2 free baths per month and 50% off all haircuts starting at $48.88/month — if your dog gets regular grooming, the membership pays for itself in the first visit. Call (850) 257-5776 or walk in during business hours.
