We have a large female German Shepherd (who has a very small circle of trust) and a small Pomeranian, and they are wonderful with both--patient, attentive, and clearly experienced with different personalities and needs. They always show up exactly when they say they will, which gives us total peace of mind. After every visit, they send photos and updates, and it's obvious they spend quality time playing with our dogs and making sure they are comfortable, cared for, and happy. It's not easy to find someone you can fully trust with your pets, especially when anxiety is involved, but Dogwalker Etc. consistently goes above and beyond. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for dependable, compassionate pet care.

She knows her workers well so she matches them up by the pet and also by the owners. She really takes the time to understand your needs.

When they say peace of mind, it's really peace of mind. We get updates and pictures on the daily and throughout the day. Hiroko stays over and she is neat and respectful. She really loves our fur baby and he loves her too. Can't say enough great things about Waikiki Wags!

So I was looking for a pet boarding for ten days in the month of May 2026. We live in town and…read morewe're looking for someplace for our fur-baby, 3yo German shepherd terrier mix, to stay while we were gone. We were looking for a reputable place who would care for our pet as if she was home. Someplace she would feel safe since we know she has anxiety issues and is really shy around strangers and may be aggressive if provoked. We tried leaving her with family, but because of her temperament, they suggested a boarding care. She is great with their dog, but they too were looking for boarding for their pet. And because they go to a pet daycare weekly, they were sending their pet to their favorite pet daycare. So while I was searching a came across Happy Puppy Kingdom. The website and instagram pages showed doggies having fun and their prices were reasonable and their care packages were affordable. We made contact through Yelp and on to our introductory appointment. We also were able to provide Kamalani's vaccine records. As certain vaccines must be given in order to book the appointment's "meet and greet". The Owner, Sophia, was so caring, gentle, and loving towards Kama. She talked to her and built a trust for us and Kama. So we started to take Kama for weekly visits starting in January 2026. We knew Kama was going to be reluctant to go because she hasn't been around other dogs a lot and only family & family pets, and knew getting her used to HPK may take a while. As the months went by she started to know which days she got to go visit "her friends". We literally asked the day before if she wanted to "see your friends!"" And she would get so excited. Jumping up, wagging her tail, looking around for Miss Sophia. And when I'd drop her off she can't wait to get out of the car. In April we did the first overnight, and it was hard, for us. Constantly looking at the clock, expecting her to greet us at the door, and her hugs and kisses...nothing!! But she did great!! HPK said she didn't eat the food we provided, so they gave her their homemade food & she really enjoyed it. So when the days came for us to leave we knew Kama was in great care with HPK. We got pictures and videos of Kama when we were away. And it turned out, our in-laws also sent their 7yo hybrid poodle, Mochi, there too. And they said Kama protected her when she was scared. When we came to pick them up they were so happy to see us!! We know Happy Puppy Kingdom took such great care of our fur-babies and that this is a loving and caring place to leave them if we ever plan another trip. Sophia reassured us and gained our trust & Kama loves her too!!!

Happy Puppy Kingdom has been a wonderful place for my dog. I adopted a two-year-old rescue in…read moreJanuary, and when I brought him home, he struggled with significant separation anxiety and was fearful around other dogs. I knew that whenever I needed to travel, he would likely do better in a boarding environment than with in-home care because being left alone was especially stressful for him. With that in mind, I started looking for a boarding facility that also offered daycare so he could gradually become comfortable with the environment before any overnight stays. I found Happy Puppy Kingdom through Google and was immediately drawn to the fact that they specialize in smaller dogs. I also appreciated that Sophia requires an assessment before accepting new dogs. When I brought my dog in for his assessment several months ago, he was quite nervous. Sophia was incredibly kind, patient, and understanding as he adjusted to the facility. She kept me updated with photos and videos as he gradually inspected the facility and settled in. Now my dog absolutely loves his weekly visits to Happy Puppy Kingdom. I brought him for daycare once a week for three to four months, which helped build his confidence and familiarity with the staff and environment. When the time finally came for his first overnight stay, he had a fantastic experience. I cannot thank Sophia and her team enough for keeping my baby safe, happy, and well cared for while I was away. Sophia is friendly, caring, and genuinely passionate about the dogs in her care. It is clear that she and her staff are dedicated to creating a safe, positive, and enriching environment where dogs can thrive. I highly recommend Happy Puppy Kingdom to anyone looking for a safe, welcoming, and fun place for their dog. My dog has come such a long way since I adopted him, and the Happy Puppy Kingdom has played a huge role in his development.

Kehau is amazing with my Frenchie, Banzai. As a Frenchie…read moremom I'm always worried that my energetic boy will be too much for whoever we're boarding him with. Kehau came out to meet him before boarding him and seeing how she interacted with him right off the bat eased any apprehension I had about leaving him. She made him comfortable very quickly and listening to commands shortly after. A huge plus was that she both picked up from and dropped him off at home when we got back. That made our trip just so much easier. On top of that, he was listening to commands much more than when he left! Oh, and getting pics of him on our trip was the cherry on top. Will definitely be bringing him back to her whenever we need to go on a trip. Hope to have him have a playdate with her soon too.

Izzy's training began immediately, and I could tell that she adored Natalie and paid attention to EVERYTHING she said and did. We've since had additional training sessions and day outings. Izzy sees a HUGE benefit from every minute spent with Barkhaus. We will happily continue, and I would recommend them to anyone living in town. Super happy!

The only thing that made me feel better was knowing that Ric was with him and he made sure to take care of things. Ric went beyond the extra mile to take care of everything, not only for Trekee's sake, but for mine as well.
