She was lonely and bored at the big box place off Hwy 50 as there was no human interaction; the staff loved her there but per policy they only interacted with the problem dogs. Loba has thrived since arriving at Happy Paws due to the personal interaction. It's like her home away from home, and she's friendly with the resident dog Marshmellow. Loba & I absolutely adore Stephanie!

I highly recommend Happy Paws! Great service and people who truly care about your pets.read more

Could not recommend her more highly!

The staff loves animals and they really care about their happiness and well being. I love that they offer PAWTIES to the doggies- its an additional charge but you get a nice picture of your fur children and they seem to get treats :D The young man who seems to be the manager is always so friendly and helpful, they always remember my pups and me and they make a visit here feel like an extension of our home. The dogs wish they could come everyday and are super excited when its a daycare day. Will be back and recommend this to anyone who has doggies- both large and small.

I have a 7-year-old German Shepherd who is extremely well-behaved and has been boarded regularly…read moresince she was very young. Before booking, my dog completed her evaluation day at Folsom Dog Resort, and everything went very well. Based on that experience, we signed up both my dog and my daughter's dog for boarding from June 4 through June 8. When I picked them up on June 8, my dog initially seemed fine. However, my daughter's dog had just vomited a large amount of water when they brought her out. Later that day, my dog also didn't seem herself. She stopped eating and then developed diarrhea. When I checked in with my daughter, her dog was experiencing similar symptoms. I called Folsom Dog Resort to express my concerns. Unfortunately, the person who took my call did not seem particularly interested in the situation, and I never received any follow-up communication. My daughter ended up taking her dog to the veterinarian and is still waiting to learn what caused the illness. My dog has still not fully recovered. Because of this experience, I will not be bringing my dog back.

Exceptional Care for Our Furry Family Members! We absolutely…read morelove bringing our dogs, Tank and Bear, here! Every single time we walk through the doors, the staff is incredibly welcoming and genuinely sweet. It is so comforting to see how much they truly care about the dogs. The real proof, though, is in how excited Tank and Bear get whenever we arrive. They are always bursting with energy and so happy to be there, which gives us total peace of mind knowing they are in the best hands and having a blast. Thank you to the amazing team for always taking such wonderful care of our boys--we couldn't ask for a better daycare! Highly recommended!

It has been a moment since Allie has been to this location because she and I have been getting…read morebetter acquainted, as I adopted her in March 2024. Sadly, Allie had the zoomies, I was in the way of her playing, and I wound up breaking my leg. With this being the rainy season, and her having a lot of energy, I wanted her to be able to have some fun and play. So, I reached out to Dogtopia again. I explained to Iona that Allie may be a bit hesitant, as it has been a while since she last stayed there. Iona was extremely helpful! She listened to my concerns. She understood how important Allie is to me and she put my trepidation to rest. So I booked the appointment for the very next day. My best friend dropped Allie off about 30 minutes ago, today. And Iona just called me to let me know how everything is going with Allie. Allie is having a ball! Good customer service is a rare find these days. Unfortunately, many people are so busy that they don't even try to engage their customers any longer. So few establishments understand the importance of building relationships. But Dogtopia gets it! I am so appreciative for what Iona has done for me. I would highly recommend this location for your fur baby. Thank you so much, Iona, for going the extra mile.

Love Manni, Maisy, and the rest of the family! I had to leave my doggy (Ollie) for the weekend and…read morehad no idea where to leave him with. He's very spoiled and gets separation anxiety (and me too...) so I wanted the best for him. I was considering Pets Hotel until i found out that they crate their dogs most of the day and barely play outside. Ollie doesn't like crates and loves to be around humans and other dogs. So, I did my research and came across Maisy's Mutts! We did a meet and greet 3 weeks before I had to leave for the weekend and it went great. I felt SO comfortable leaving Ollie with the family and Manni kept me updated every day with pictures which definitely helped with my separation anxiety (LOL!). Ollie loves them and he had so much fun with Maisy and their other furry friend. Manni is definitely my go-to boarding place!!!

When it was our turn they mentioned how good our friend's dog was they brought all of his food, toys and personal stuff. Since he is quite big and there was another small dog in the waiting area they brought him around the back door. They were great with all of the dogs that we saw and would probably leave our dog there if we had one.

They do everything possible to keep the dogs happy and healthy. We've had to have them help with meds, do grooming, special instructions and they always do an awesome job. All I can say is to be wary of one time bad experiences that are shared on here. When you're talking about a place with a bunch of dogs and humans interacting, there is always going to be an incident or two but the staff handle it very well and are always extremely communicative. I can tell you after dozens and dozens of visits, this place is solid.

My grandmother had fallen very ill, very quickly and we needed to rehome her two sheep-doodles. Sadly (unbeknownst to us due to her illness) the pups were not being cared for properly... they were matted, dry skin, potty stuck to their fur... we needed same day help because these poor dogs couldn't live this way. The crew at Buster's DELIVERED!!!! By the time they were done my grandmothers dogs were unrecognizable in the best way. You can trust this company, they will do right by you! I cannot thank them enough... Bring your babies here!!! You won't regret it.

Great staff! Silver has been amazing to Rio (my lab), posts pictures and keeps me updated on how…read moremuch fun he is having if I'm out of town and I board him. When I had difficulty getting him to my ca after the surgery she helped walk Rio to the car and got him in. Few times that we were not able to come to daycare for few weeks, upon return Silver would get on her knees to greet and hug Rio (her velcro dog). It is telling to see him love her so much and her so excited to see her too. Similarly Abby has been fantastic at the front desk, greeting dog parents as they come in, remembering dogs names. When there are additional charges for grooming she calls before processing payment. Their love for pets is clearly shown as Rio gets so excited few miles before we arrive and even though he is not supposed to pull he is very eager to get to see his friends and the staff.

Have only heard them once, but we were very happy with the service we received. I didn't request…read moreservice until just over a week before our trip and they were able to accommodate. You are given the pricing up front. The price we paid was quite reasonable, especially considering it's a licensed, insured, and bonded business with employees, vs random independent contractors. 2 different gals came to our house to care for our cats while we were gone - Amy and Payton. Both were prompt and took good care of our cats. Amy was exceptionally kind and stayed longer than she was booked for - just to play with our cats! We really appreciated this, since it was our first night away and I know our cats were feeling anxious. It was such a relief to have a business available to us to come to our house to take care of our animals! While I'm sure there are tons of great pet sitters on the various 3rd party pet sitting sites , we would've been too nervous. Being able to hire a business to send people to our house was a big relief! We will absolutely be using them again in the future.

She does pet sitting herself, but also set me up with a pet sitter in another town when I'm in that area. I was impressed with her contracted sitter during our meet and greet. When a last minute need for sitting in Placerville arose, I contacted Tamara and she was able to accomodate my request. Upon arrival I noticed that the facility was very well organized, safe and set up for multiple dogs. I noted that she is extremely experienced with dogs and well versed in behavior. She is very personable and walked me around and explained how her boarding works and the different areas for the dogs. Tamara made me very comfortable leaving my pet while I ran errands for the day. The facility is set up very well for overnight boarding too. My dog had a great time at Happy Tails with Tamara's Great Dane and other guests. I would definitely return. I also had the opportunity to leave my dog with Cheryl in Folsom and had a very positive experience. I appreciate the fact that Happy Tails is licensed and insured. Highly recommended.

We visited the PetSmart cat adoption area on 1/10/26 around 3:00 PM after seeing the adoption sign,…read moreas we are actively looking to adopt another cat. Instead of being welcomed, we were completely ignored. 3 volunteers stood together laughing, talking loudly, and watching a YouTube video on a phone while clearly noticing us and other visitors. No greeting nor acknowledgment--just uncomfortable looks as if we were bothering them when they're the ones who chose to volunteer. Ironic? When we tried to look at the cats, the behavior continued. One volunteer deliberately blocked our view, and there was zero effort to engage or provide information. We watched other potential adopters walk away as well. I hope PetSmart will reconsider which organization hosts their adoptions, because this was such a bad look for PetSmart and Fat Kitty City Humane Society. The store employees were genuinely kind and helpful, and when I raised the issue, a PetSmart associate even suggested looking into Front Street Shelter or Bradshaw Shelter instead, mentioning that she has heard similar complaints from other customers about these same volunteers. Unfortunately, these 3 volunteers are just tarnishing Fat Kitty City's purpose and goals.
