The Dogs by Design difference

Gentle on skin. Serious about the finish.

We treat every pet as if it were our own. That means non-toxic, skin-friendly products, an unhurried pace, and groomers who take the time to understand your dog before a single clip. The result is a coat that looks polished and a pup that actually enjoyed the visit.

What Pensacola is saying

My doodle Biscuit always comes home soft, mat-free, and actually calm. The Palafox team is so gentle with him.
Megan R. • Doodle owner
Booked the Full Groom for our schnauzer at $65 and the breed cut was spot on. No hidden charges at pickup.
David L. • East Hill
They use organic shampoo because our terrier has sensitive skin. First groomer that hasn't left him itchy.
Priya N. • Pensacola
Walked in on a Saturday with two muddy pups and they still fit us in. Out in about two hours, both gorgeous.
Carlos M. • Downtown
The paw and pad treatment add-on is worth every dollar. My senior lab walks easier afterward.
Susan T. • Cordova
Honest pricing and they text the second she's ready. I never feel like my dog is waiting around all day.
Jared P. • Pensacola
Took our anxious rescue for a first bath. They went slow and made it a good experience. We're clients for life.
Hannah B. • Ferry Pass
Best cut my Westie has ever had, and the little bandana at the end is the cutest touch. Highly recommend.
