Give your dog a full day of exercise, socialization, and fun at Animal Friends Pet Care's supervised daycare. Dogs are grouped by size, temperament, and play style — never a free-for-all — and our trained attendants supervise play sessions continuously throughout the day.

Commercial-grade dog agility park: Our daycare yard isn't just an open field — it's a full commercial-grade agility setup with jumps, tunnels, A-frames, weave poles, and tire jumps. No other Panama City daycare has anything like this. Your dog gets real exercise, mental stimulation, and confidence-building — not just running in circles.

Daycare at Animal Friends includes indoor and outdoor play areas, shaded yards, water available at all times, structured rest periods to prevent overstimulation, and splash pools in warmer months. Many Panama City Beach dogs attend regularly because they come home happy, tired, and better socialized.

We do a free temperament evaluation on your dog's first daycare day to determine the best play group. Dogs that aren't comfortable in groups simply aren't a fit for daycare, and we'll tell you honestly rather than force an uncomfortable environment.

Daycare is ideal for working Panama City Beach residents, puppies needing socialization, high-energy breeds who destroy the house when bored, and senior dogs who just want gentle companionship. Half-day and full-day options available, plus multi-day packages at a reduced rate.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does dog daycare cost?
Full-day daycare is $25, half-day is $15. Weekly packages (5 days) are $70/week — just $14/day. FurPlan members get discounted daycare too.
Do you have a dog agility setup?
Yes! We're the only Panama City daycare with a full commercial-grade dog agility park in our daycare yard — jumps, tunnels, A-frames, weave poles, and tire jumps. Your dog gets real exercise and mental stimulation, not just an open yard.
Does my dog need a temperament test for daycare?
Yes. Every new daycare dog does a free meet-and-greet on their first visit so we can match them to the right play group. It takes about 15 minutes and protects every dog in the building.
Can puppies attend daycare?
Yes, puppies 16 weeks and older with current vaccinations can attend. Early socialization is one of the best things you can do for a puppy, and we keep puppies in age-appropriate play groups.
What are your daycare hours?
Daycare drop-off is 7 AM – 10 AM, pickup is by 6 PM Mon–Sat and by 2 PM Sunday. Late pickup converts to boarding at standard rates.
