Grooming is comfort and health rolled into one. Our Miami groomers offer baths, dips, medicated skin treatments, and prescription flea control for dogs and cats of every size.
Because we are a full veterinary hospital, grooming pairs naturally with medical care. A skin issue spotted on the table can lead straight to a veterinary exam, and the right products from our pet supply shelves keep results going at home.
Briarwood Animal Hospital has groomed South Florida pets alongside their medical care since 1981. Grooming here is more than a bath and a trim. A clean coat and healthy skin prevent matting, hot spots, and infections, and a grooming session is a hands-on chance to notice lumps, parasites, or irritation early. Our groomers handle pets of all sizes, from small dogs and cats to large breeds, with patience and a gentle touch.
Baths are the foundation, and we use the right shampoo for each coat and skin type. For pets with skin conditions, medicated baths and dips do real therapeutic work, calming inflammation, treating fungal or bacterial issues, and easing the itch that drives so many pets to scratch. Because a veterinarian is right here, medicated grooming can be coordinated with treatment rather than guessed at. That connection is a genuine advantage of grooming inside a hospital.
Flea control is a constant need in Miami, and our prescription flea products go beyond what the pet store shelf offers. We treat the pet and advise on treating the home, since fleas spend most of their life cycle in carpets and bedding, not on your dog. Pairing a good bath with effective flea control breaks the cycle. For pets with allergies, which are extremely common here, this combination brings real relief.
Baths, dips, medicated skin treatments, and flea control for pets of every size.

What a Grooming Visit Includes
Intake and Skin Check
We review your pet's coat, skin, and any concerns, and note anything a veterinarian should see.
Bath and Treatment
We bathe with the right shampoo or a medicated dip, addressing skin conditions and fleas as needed.
Finishing Care
We handle nails, ears, and coat so your pet leaves clean, comfortable, and neat.
Home Care Advice
We recommend the products and routine that keep your pet's skin and coat healthy between visits.
Grooming supports the whole pet. Nail trims protect joints and posture, ear cleaning heads off infections, and a tidy coat keeps a dog cooler in our heat. We fold these into grooming visits so your pet leaves comfortable, not just tidy. Owners from Coral Gables often schedule grooming alongside a wellness visit to make one trip count.
Skin and coat are windows into overall health, and grooming often surfaces the first hint of a bigger issue. If our groomers find a suspicious lump, a stubborn rash, or heavy parasites, your pet is already in the right place for care. That might mean a dental check for a mouth problem noticed along the way, or a full workup on the spot.
Pets from Kendall and beyond benefit from grooming that is connected to real veterinary judgment. Call to book a grooming appointment and give your pet a fresh, healthy start.
Signs Your Pet Needs Grooming Attention
MIAMI PET GROOMING
Fighting Humidity, Fleas, and Skin Allergies Year-Round
Miami's humidity is hard on pet skin. Moisture trapped in a thick or matted coat breeds yeast and bacteria, and hot spots can flare up fast in our climate. Fleas thrive here every month of the year, and skin allergies are among the most common complaints we hear from local pet owners. Regular grooming with the right products is a frontline defense.
Our medicated baths and prescription flea control are built for these conditions, and because a veterinarian is on site, treatment and grooming work together. We see the same seasonal skin flare-ups across Coral Gables, Kendall, and the surrounding communities, and we adjust each pet's grooming plan to match. Following up with the correct flea and skin products for home keeps the itch and irritation from coming back.
Why Groom at a Veterinary Hospital
Grooming Questions
Often, yes. Medicated baths and dips soothe inflammation and treat many skin conditions, and prescription flea control breaks the cycle behind a lot of itching. When the cause runs deeper, we can move straight to a veterinary skin exam since the doctor is right here.
