Tiny Pet Salon

Tiny Pet Salon is a small pet grooming game you play in first person. Pets turn up at your window covered in mud. Carry each one to the bathtub, then to the grooming table, and do every job yourself, up close. When you're done, hand it back through the window and it rates your work out of five paws.Grooming, by handRub the sponge over every patch of mud until it's gone, then rinse the soap off with the sprayer. Dry the fur with a towel or the hair dryer and watch it puff up, brush it until it shines, and clip the nails on each paw. Turn the pet around to get at its back.Bows, bandanas and party hatsEvery pet comes with an order ticket that says what it wants: which jobs, which shampoo scent, which color. Finish with a bow, a bandana or a party hat, and put it wherever you click.Pets with personalityTicklish pets wiggle around while you work. Pets that hate water might jump out of the tub and run. Some show up extra muddy, and the fluffy ones need twice the brushing but tip more. A dog biscuit from the treat jar calms anyone down.Make the salon yoursSpend your tips on better gear, like a faster sprayer, a hair dryer and a rubber duck that keeps nervous pets in the bath, and on decor that turns up through the season, from a ducky parade and party bunting to twinkling fairy lights, a fish tank and a fountain for the front yard. Happy customers come back as regulars, often asking for the same look as last time, and their photos go up on your wall. And when it's quiet, give Nori, the salon's little black cat, a pet. She purrs.A little town outside your windowYour salon sits on a sunny corner: cars pull up at the crossing to let pets cross, neighbors stroll by with their friends, chimneys puff, butterflies drift over the flower boxes, and every window looks out on gardens, shops and the park across the road.Twenty days, two Pet ShowsEach day brings something to look forward to, like brushes, bows, scented shampoos, nail trims, a hat parade, dress-up days and big rushes, along with a goal that pays a bonus. Halfway through it's the Summer Pet Show, and on day twenty the Grand Pet Show, where the day's ratings win you a medal and a rosette for your wall. After that, the salon stays open as long as you like, and the Pet Show comes back every few days for another go at gold.Three ways to playRelax: no timer. Pets come in one at a time and wait as long as you need.Frenetic: a line forms outside and pets get impatient, but every groom pays 30% more.Desktop: the salon shrinks into a small window in the corner of your screen. Every few minutes a pet rings the bell, and you click to open up.Features11 kinds of pets, from puppies and bunnies to a polar bear and a tigerWash, rinse, dry, brush, clip nails and dress up, all done by handBows, bandanas and party hats in three colors, and three shampoo scentsPets with personalities, regular customers and a photo wallUpgrades and decor to buy with your tips, from party bunting to a fish tankA 20-day season with daily goals and two Pet Shows, then free playA lively little town outside every window, and a salon cat to petFull controller support, with a layout that fits the Steam Deck19 achievements
