I have been bringing my dog here since 2018, the staff has always been exceptional. They take care of my dog like she was one of theirs.
“Thank you so much for sharing this. Layla has been part of our family since 2018, and we adore every moment we get with her. She brings such a sweet energy to our days, and caring for her like one of our own has always come naturally to us.”

We are SO grateful for Happy Tails and Trails 2.0! Polee LOVES playing with his friends, and Brady & Luis are so good to him. He literally drags me there and is so excited to get there every day!!
"This absolutely makes our day! Polee is such a joy to have here, and we love seeing how excited he is to come play. Brady and Luis adore him, and it means so much to know he feels at home with us. Thank you for trusting Happy Tails & Trails 2.0 with your pup — we’re so grateful to be part of his daily happiness!"
Our dog had a great time, the employees were very helpful and caring for the dogs. Great value, service, and care
Thank you so much for your kind words! Sundance was absolutely wonderful—he had a great time playing and relaxing with the other pups, and was truly a pleasure to have with us. We’re so glad you felt supported by our team and appreciated the care we provide. Looking forward to seeing Sundance again soon for more tail-wagging fun!

Gerald has gone to both Happy Tails & Trails locations starting at just a few months old! He always comes home tuckered out from a full day of playing. He LOVES it! The team takes great care of him and I am always met with a smile at drop …
Thank you so much for the kind words and for trusting us with Gerald since he was just a pup! 🐾 Watching him grow into the playful, sweet boy he is today has been such a joy for our entire team. We’re thrilled to hear he comes home happy and tuckered out—mission accomplished! 😊 Celebrating his first birthday with treats and love was our pleasure, and we’re honored to be part of his journey. Your recommendation means the world to us. We’ll keep doing our very best to make every visit tail-waggingly wonderful!
I have been working with this company for many years and my three dogs have been so happy. They are unbelievably reliable, accommodating, and careful with our dogs. Thank you!
Thank you for trusting us with your beloved crew over the years. Moxy was a joy to care for, and we’re deeply saddened by his passing. He brought so much love and light to our days, and we’ll always remember him with affection. Our hearts are with you, Indy, and Sunny during this time. We’re honored to be part of your journey and grateful for the bond we’ve built together.

My dog Bear has been going here twice a week for daycare and for boarding years now. He absolutely loves it! The staff is incredible, responsive, and clearly love all the dogs.
We’re incredibly grateful for your trust and loyalty. Our team pours their hearts into every tail wag and cuddle, and hearing that it shows makes all the difference. Give Bear some extra belly rubs from us—we adore him!
Skye completed both the 10-day Puppy Manners and Basic Obedience programs with Angie, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The daycare and training offering was incredibly convenient. Angie is patient, knowledgeable, and truly …
Thank you so much for the amazing review! I'm absolutely thrilled how well Skye did in the Puppy Manners and Basic Obedience programs. It was such a joy working with her, and I'm so glad the daily report cards, videos, and daycare helped you feel confident in continuing her training at home. Your kind words mean the world to me, and I'm always here for any questions as you and Skye keep progressing. Thanks for the heartfelt recommendation!
Nicole did an amazing job with our 6 month old puppy. She went at his pace, and assured us that since he was timid they could keep him in the front office or by dogs he gets along with only. We picked up a happy puppy with a great cut! …
