What Happy Tails Dog Walking Clients Say
“We have had the best experience with Happy Tails! We used their dog walking services for our two pups and we just love Amy and all their staff. We knew that our girls were always well taken care of and loved! They have a fabulous app where I could see when the sitter arrived and left for the day. We would also get an amazing report for each visit that included, potty updates, treat updates, and pictures! I could not recommend Happy Tails enough!”
“I’ve used Happy Tails for the past 5 years and cannot recommend them enough- they took the best care of my senior dog and are now the biggest help with my puppy! I love the updates and always feel okay being away when I know they will be coming over to see my boy ”
“We utilize Happy Tails for dog walking needs and overnight stays and each provider always goes above and beyond to make sure our dog Palmer feels comfortable and happy while we are away. We can’t recommend Carly and her team enough! Happy Tails ensures you will receive a personal experience and treats your furry friends as if they were their own - We are so thankful to the Happy Tails team & Palmer is too!!”
