It was impossible to get things done without her displaying these behaviors and trying to correct them. I had heard that some of my friends had been to Happy Tails so I thought I'd give it a try. WOW! I have a new dog! She is still my lovable baby but with manners! The trainers , and everyone there took such care of my dog. Amy sent us video updates and texts. Just like my friends told me, Happy Tails is worth every penny! I have to agree.

Katerina is truly the best. We were having issues with our 3yr old Havenese jumping and peeing…read morewhen people would visit. When I first contacted Katerina I was a little worried about her accent, but as soon as she entered my home, I realized there were no communication problems. My dog Snickers responded to her beautifully!! In no time at all she taught him how to behave properly when guests arrive. We couldn't be happier!

Some people know people. But it takes an even deeper talent to know dogs. And Katerina knows dogs…read more She also knows how to help people who need help with their dogs. She is a true miracle worker (at least in the realm of turning a wild beast into a gentle spirit). If you have a dog that requires training, look no further.

So, it his first stay at Pet Smart Boarding. I also had them trim his nails. They did a great job on the nails, and my dog seemed like he enjoyed his playful weekend stay, as he passed out, tired and happy when we git home. Will definitely recommend their day care and boarding services to anyone!

The play areas have cloud based webcams that they have an app for their customers to view, I was able to check in several times on my vacation to see that they were up and about. Bark Ave was also more affordable than places like camp bow wow while offering the same type of services (group play, camera check ins, photos posted daily) Overall great quality care and a good price, 5 stars. Will definitely be taking out pups here next vaca!

WORST PLACE EVER!! I will never ever go back! Had boarded our dog 3-4 times in the past…read more Recently was last summer. She's a 10 pound Maltese, never ever bit anyone in 15 years of having her. Rude, insensitive, entitled lady behind the counter. Denied her treat of Denta Stix which shes had for ten years, saying it's a choking hazard. This lady was on a power trip, not nice, not welcoming, doesn't like her job obviously. Filled all the papers out. Dog had all necessary vacinations. She bent down and tried to put a lease around her neck. Dog has cataracts and is hard of hearing too. Dog snipped at her. I asked her to give the dog a few minutes to calm down since this is a stranger she cant see trying to put something around her neck. She refused and told us she couldn't take out dog!!!! At the last moment before we leave for out week long vacation she says she can not take the dog!!!!!! No apologies just flat out can't take her!! We had no one or no where to take her since it's the Fourth of July weekend!! This person didn't care about any of that. Ruining our vacation didn't matter to her. To top if off I was told by a Danielle that she'd hate to report my dog to animal control if she bit anyone!! This dog who has had a rabies shot was going to be reported to animal control?? Are you kidding me? For what for them to come take and euthanize her? Stay far away from this place. The store manager was no better except supporting his staff! I wouldn't leave a fly here!!

My dog was banned from this location…read more.. And here's why... another dog that was previously banned was allowed back into daycare... the reason it was banned beforehand was because the dog was aggressive towards other dogs and was impossible to get him into a crate. One day this dog started picking on several dogs, including my dog... another dog initiated a fight and several of the dogs ganged up on the previously banned dog. In the video that I have, it is clear as day that my dog was wanting to play but the banned dog kept bullying him... out of self defense, my dog bit him, the fight was broken up by staff, and my dog didn't put up a fight when it was crated. The other dog (at least 70 lbs) laid himself out refusing to be crated. Some of the staff are not trained properly at all to prepare for situations like these... it's clear. My dog has never been ball aggressive or anything of that nature... but the staff should know what dogs play better when they have balls or toys to play with... I've heard from previous employees that several of the current staff members didn't like working in rooms with my rambunctious shepherd because they were afraid of him (his bark sounds very aggressive, but he's honestly the sweetest, most rambunctious puppy). They would keep my dog crated for hours... some days he'd come home from daycare smelling of pure dog urine. To top it all off, the owner doesn't even like dogs. Quite laughable if you ask me.
