Gentle Touch Pet Grooming

Gentle Touch Pet Grooming has been grooming dogs and cats in Jupiter for more than 25 years, a run of longevity that puts it among the most established pet grooming businesses in town. The shop operates out of a suite on West Indiantown Road, one of Jupiter’s main east-west corridors, making it an easy stop for pet owners across a wide swath of the community.

The shop grooms all breeds of both dogs and cats, offering a full range of services that includes teeth cleaning, de-shedding treatments, baths with regular or medicated shampoo depending on a pet’s skin needs, ear cleaning, flea and tick treatment, haircuts tailored to breed standards, nail clipping and filing, and gland expression. The shop also offers puppy grooming training, which helps young dogs get comfortable with the grooming process early so that later visits go more smoothly, and it specifically notes special care for elderly or disabled pets, a detail that matters to owners of aging animals who need a gentler, more patient touch during grooming.

Florida’s heat and humidity make regular grooming more than a cosmetic matter for a lot of pets. Heavy-coated breeds can struggle with heat regulation if not properly de-shedded, and the area’s flea and tick population stays active nearly year-round given the mild winters, so routine treatment is less optional here than it might be in a colder climate.

Hours run Tuesday through Friday from 8 in the morning to 5 in the evening, with a Saturday window from 9 to 5, and the shop closed Mondays and Sundays. That schedule gives working pet owners a weekend option without requiring an appointment during the standard business week.

With more than two and a half decades in business, Gentle Touch has groomed generations of Jupiter’s pets, and that kind of tenure tends to build a level of trust that newer grooming businesses have not yet had the chance to earn. Owners of nervous or elderly pets in particular often gravitate toward groomers with a long track record, since experience handling animals that do not sit still easily is not something that can be faked.

As an independently owned grooming shop rather than part of a national pet care franchise, Gentle Touch Pet Grooming has built its reputation entirely on the quality of care given to Jupiter’s pets over a quarter century, a level of continuity that gives local pet owners real confidence when handing over an animal for the day.
