My other dog is more reserved and was pretty hesitant during his initial visits, but I never attributed that to the staff. I know my dog, and he can be a bit antisocial. Now, though, he walks in with his tail wagging and doesn't even look back! Thank you, Riley and team, for creating such a warm, welcoming space. It's incredibly reassuring to know that my dogs feel safe and secure in your care. It really helps put us per parents mind at ease!

My pups are always excited when we arrive, and they are always tired when I collect them after spending their day at Wicked Pawsome.

Also, they welcome all sizes of dogs, which is so important, because many places discriminate against the giant breeds like Mastiffs, even though they are such kind and gentle dogs.

I am not a person that expects more than I am paying for and definitely try to give the benefit of the doubt when there is disagreement. But today,I have to give this location a 1 star review for the situation that occured this morning. We rescued our dog Finn from Mississippi 8 weeks ago. He is between 9 months and a year old. The day that we brought him home, he played for about 3 hours with our next door neighbor's dog nonstop. He did not bark a single time. We brought him to this daycare for the first time on June 2nd for a trial, the folks here told us when we picked him up that he was awesome and had such a good day playing with the other dogs. 2nd visit we were asked to pick him up because there were worms discovered in his poop. No problem. Finn was treated and today we went back for his third visit. Wife got a call to come pick him up because he wanted to play too much. Owner told her that Finn did not know "how to read the room". Finn wanted to play and when the other dogs did not want to play, Finn continued to try to get them to play. WHAT??. I thought that we sent our dogs to daycare to play. Finn is not an aggressive dog. He has a lot of energy but is not a problem dog. He wants to play with other dogs. When my wife went to pick him up, there was an issue getting a refund. What? He was there for less than an hour. While she was working with the staff to understand what was happening, she asked Finn to sit. He did immediately and sat there until she was done talking to the owner. Not sure what is going on here, but we will not be back.

We were looking for a doggy daycare due to our dogs isolation anxiety. When we called, happy dog,…read moreit was clear the owner loves dogs and loves what she does. She let us know about nap time and was willing to accommodate anything he needed if he was not able to rest independently. (He did great and Michelle was on top of his need the first day). We were able to get in for an interview/temperament test within a week even around a holiday And once we passed, we able to start right away. The owner is very responsive to any questions or concerns you have. Her staff love the dogs and your furry friend gets a big hello upon arrival. Our pup comes home happy but tired and ready for cuddles and rest. Also, the packages they offer are extremely fair and worth it. Thank you Happy Dog!

The first time I brought my dog for a boarding experience here, it was absolutely wonderful. I…read moreinteracted with a young woman who was absolutely lovely to talk to, very kind and clearly cares a lot about the dogs. At the end of the stay, my dog came home exhausted and happy, and I got to see some awesome pictures of his stay. The second time I brought my dog here a few months later, I was met by Michelle, the owner (she hadn't been there the first time when I dropped off, or during the temperament test). I will admit that I made a couple of mistakes here -- I was 15 minutes later than my anticipated drop-off time (but still within the drop-off window), and while I had seen an email from her when I booked my reservation, I missed the line at the bottom of the email with the link for my confirmation, and so I missed the info that was included through that link about how to prepare his food. This is entirely my mistake, I dropped the ball there by being distracted so I missed some important information that I should've known in advance. However, when I arrived with my dog, Michelle was clearly very irritated with me from the get-go. I apologized for being late, and tried to hand her my dog's food (I had put his meals in individual ziplock bags trying to make it easier, and put these inside a plastic container with his name and instructions written on it). Michelle scolded me for bringing a container and said she couldn't accept it; she took the ziplocks out and then scolded me for not writing his name on each bag, for separating out his food when they could have done it, for "bringing rawhide treats" even when I clarified that they were completely rawhide-free (she still refused to take them), for bringing his daily medication in his pill bottle (I had used an old pill bottle of his so it would have his name and dose on it, but she kept telling me she "couldn't be responsible for getting it back to me" even though I told her that was perfectly fine), etc etc. No matter how many times I tried to apologize and own up to my novice mistakes, she just kept circling and circling with her complaints. Now, I'll admit that I'm pretty sensitive and anxiously attached to my dog, and I was so shocked that I began to tear up as she continued to scold me (this feels so strange to write as a grown woman!). Michelle either didn't take a breath to notice or else just didn't care. I completely and wholeheartedly understand that she is running a serious business here, and takes the health and safety of our dogs very seriously which is why she has these rules. I am GLAD they have these rules. However, after I apologized the first 10-15 times and told her I understood, that I hadn't been told any of this the first time my dog boarded there so I didn't realize; I would expect her to ease up. I myself work as a manager at a preschool center, so a somewhat similar field, and I cannot IMAGINE ever talking to a parent/client the way she spoke to me. After she took my dog from me mid-scolding and left me standing at the door shocked and without getting to say goodbye before my first real time being away from my dog, I ended up sitting in my car for another 10 minutes just trying to compose myself. To top it off, my boyfriend was the one picking my dog up the next afternoon; he was coming directly from working in NYC, and was worried about traffic, so around 4:45 he called on his way to let her know his ETA was 5:45 but wanted to let her know JUST in case traffic pushed it past 6:00; Michelle told him firmly "You can get here anytime between 5 and 6." This feels like a pretty rude reaction to someone who is calling you well in advance as a precaution. In the end he did arrive around 5:45, but was reprimanded for not having our dog's leash (since he was coming from out of state, I'd think it's pretty obvious why that happened, but thankfully our dog is small enough to be carried). Happy Dog Pet Resort is excellent with dogs. The other staff that I met were friendly, kind, and compassionate. My dog was very happy there. Unfortunately, it's the owner Michelle that completely soured the experience for me and has left me looking for a new daycare center. I can't justify leaving my favorite being on the planet again with someone that could be so cold and compassionless.

We have had terrible experiences at two other local kennels, but that was not the case here. Our dog who is a large Belgian Malinois has stayed here on two separate occasions and I can say without a doubt that I would not board him anywhere else. Owners are upfront and were sure to tell me about a very small rub on his nose when I picked him up. In the past when staying at other kennels he had displayed nervous behaviors such as not eating and chewing on himself to the point where he is raw. Neither of these issues occurred when he has stayed at the Country Groomer in Carver leading me to believe that it is a much less stressful environment. Both the owner and her husband are friendly and professional. The prices per day are reasonable in comparison to other kennels as well. I highly recommend them if you are looking for to board your dog while you are away.

We have two older dogs and were adding a new pup to the mix during Covid August of 2019. We took a…read morecouple of day trips and noticed how scared the pup (Maddie) was of other dogs despite living with 2 other dogs. I also knew that it was inevitable that I would be going back to the office. The pup is a Husky and would need a lot of exercise. I learned about The Barker House while visiting a local convenience store the next town over and thought I would give them a call due to location. Amber arranged a time where Maddie our Husky could spend a few hours there for her trial. We took Maddie to The Barker House for a week before her Spay was scheduled. Amber had texted me the day of Maddie's surgery to see how it went and how she was doing. Maddie had some complications and actually wasn't doing well. Amber genuinely cared and was concerned for our pup that'd she only known for a week or so. I woke up the next morning with a gift from Amber/The Barker house for Maddie at my front door. I think we had planned to have Maddie at a daycare a few times a week. But every morning Maddie wakes us up with excitement. She knows she is going to her favorite place in the entire world, which is the Barker house. If there are any delays in this process Maddie in typical Husky fashion howls, sings, and talks back with all the sass that she needs to be at The Barker House! NOW!! We take all of our dogs (King Charles Cavalier and Shepard Mix) there for grooming and baths and they do an amazing job! Maddie also attended their training classes and they were excellent. We also have a trip coming up soon and we'll be boarding all 3 dogs with The Barker House. We also like the personal touch of Amber texting us pictures of Maddie throughout the day to see what a great doggie day she's having. All the employees are super friendly and the facility is always very clean. We highly recommend The Barker House!
