    I wish I could give them 0 stars. Left a burn on my dog in the 48 hours he was there. Pictures attached. Absolutely no compensation or even AN APOLOGY was made, and they will not give us any information on what happened. They told us it was a "hotspot" which takes weeks to develop on a dog (he was there for 48 hours), and it is literally December. They also have ZERO vets on staff, so the "hotspot" opinion was given to us by multiple people with no vet experience and quite possibly no degrees at all. Also, when our dog was hurt we were NEVER CALLED NOR NOTIFIED IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM. Do not take your dog here; they will not care for him or her properly.

    I hate to write negative reviews, but I have to on this one. We're new to Texas and needed a kennel to watch our dog (who is 12) and our cat. We dropped them both off on Thursday and were greeted with friendly staff. We made it clear that we did not want our dog to participate in any free playtime with other dogs, but a small group walk would be ok. We picked them both up a few days later and everything seemed fine. We got home and I have our dog a bath and noticed a bloody bump on his back. After cleaning it off, I realized it was a puncture wound/bite. I called Pappy's to ask if they saw anything happen between our dog and other dog. The person I spoke with said she would talk to the techs and get back to me before the end of the day. Well, the day came & went and I received no call back. I proceeded to send a detailed email to Pappy's, explaining the whole situation and asking for a call or email back. I received a voicemail later in the day from a woman, apologizing for not getting back to me the day before and saying that she was going to talk to the techs and "100%" get back to me before the end of the day. Well, again, it's a day later and I still haven't heard back about the incident. I would just like an apology for what happened. Be careful with sending your pets here. I don't feel like they're completely honest. Beware.

    After having a nightmare experience leaving my dogs with someone I found on Rover.com, I am extremely anxious to leave my dogs anywhere to be boarded. I found Pappys after moving to Fort Worth, and I have boarded my 2 dogs here twice now, once at Christmas and once while on vacation at the beach. Both times they were cared for with love and attention by competent, knowledgable staff. They have a lot of options for kennel size when boarding. The first time I opted for the Hound Hotel with the webcam to put my mind at ease. He second time I chose the same kennel without the webcam. I opted for the doggy day care twice/day during their stay, and I was able to watch them having fun playing with all the other dogs while they were there. It really put my mind at ease. Also, their grooming services are excellent. Most importantly the staff here are incredible. I had really specific instructions for feeding one of my dogs who is overweight, and they fully accommodated her diet needs and seemed happy to do so. The doggy report cards are a nice touch, they give me assurance that my fur babies are being given attention. I drive 45 minutes each way to board my dogs here and pass several other kennels to come here. Their prices are reasonable and they offer savings if you buy combined services.

    I've been meaning to post a glowing review for Happy Tails Dog Sitting on Yelp for quite some time…read more Samantha and Norm are the BEST. She treats your dog as if he was her own and sends you daily updates (via email or text) with pictures, reassuring you that your dog is in great hands and doing well. Most recently, my dog Prince stayed with her for a week - the longest he's been away from home - and his birthday fell during that stay. She baked him the most adorable doggie cake for me to take home to celebrate when I got back, and also got him a Prince crown cookie with his name on it and sent me pics of him in a party hat! He also got a solo walk to PetSmart with Norm to pick his own toy, and an egg for breakfast - one of his favorite foods to eat! I am always blown away by how caring and loving they are and it makes me feel so much better if and when I have to travel, knowing that Prince is in good hands! I adopted him when he was 4 years old, and he had been owner surrendered at a shelter so the thought of boarding him at a kennel just made me so upset. I found her on Yelp and Prince has stayed with her 3 times so far, and I can't say enough great things about Samantha and Norm. 100% recommend them to anyone who wants a home away from home for their dog while they're away. She even checks in periodically, especially right after the stay, to check in on my pup and make sure he's doing well! And the first few visits, she even provided a wonderful take home bag with toys and homemade treats for Prince. So incredibly sweet and well priced. And much better than the options I've seen on DogVacay, which can be $50-75/night for minimal supervision! I'll be back the next time I go out of town!

    I really wanted to give Happy Tails a chance, but the complete lack of urgency and poor…read morecommunication made that impossible. I've been trying to plan for a week-long work trip at the beginning of May, followed some time in Europe, and needed to secure boarding. Over three days, I submitted multiple intake forms (in case the first didn't go through), sent texts, and called. There was no follow-up, no acknowledgment. Nothing. The only response I received was a single text saying they weren't accepting new boarders until May 1 and to fill out a request form...which I had already done multiple times. If you're too busy to take on new clients, that's completely understandable. But ignoring repeated outreach and sending a generic, unhelpful response isn't. Communication matters, especially when people are trying to make plans with real deadlines. They may be great with dogs, but based on this experience, I wouldn't rely on them if you expect professionalism or responsiveness.
