About Happy K9 Academy

Happy K9 Academy’s boarding facility is staffed 24/7 365 days a year to ensure we give the best experience possible to each pup in our care! We intentionally keep our boarding facility small so we can spend a generous amount of time one on one with each dog to meet their mental, emotional and physical needs! We provide reward based training through group classes, stay and train programs and private training lessons!

5/5

We couldn’t ask for a better dog boarding service than Happy K9 Academy!!! They made me feel reassured that our pup was in good hands. They were very friendly and would give me updates on our dog anytime we asked!! It was our wedding weekend as well so this was our first time boarding our dog- I would highly recommend!!!☺️

My dogs absolutely LOVE this place !!! I always feel guilty dropping them off when I leave for vacation or travel but when they see where they are they can’t wait to get inside it takes away the pain of leaving them and replaces it with what am I chop liver! But I am so glad they love it there , and I was also very happy that when one of my dogs seemed a lil off they were on top of it and notified me right away with updates . I seriously can’t say enough good things about This place it truly is a Happy K9 place for my guys and me as a helicopter dog mom if that can be a thing.

I can’t say enough good things about Happy K9 Academy and the incredible care they gave my dog, Junior. From the moment we arrived, it was clear this isn’t just a boarding facility—it’s a place where dogs are genuinely loved and treated like family. The 24/7 supervision gave me real peace of mind while traveling for work, and the consistent updates made me feel connected to Junior the entire time. It was obvious he was not only safe, but truly happy, well cared for, and engaged. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and obvious love for animals set them apart. Leaving your dog can be stressful, but they made the entire experience easy and reassuring. I would absolutely trust them again without hesitation. Highly recommend Happy K9 Academy to anyone who wants true peace of mind and exceptional care for their pet.
