Happy Dog Spot

My dog and I always have a great experience at Happy Dog Spot! They offer boarding and daycare so I've always got somewhere to take him. My boy always has so much fun and comes back worn out ready for the next day.

Critical: Professionalism Took my dog here multiple times for boarding and daycare and have never had an issue until my dog was attacked and needed to be taken to a hospital. The staff repeatedly had an attitude towards me over the phone and in person when dropping him off. Would not recommend.

Critical: Reliability They claimed my 5m old golden retriever barked too much and wouldn't accept him. It was his first time at any kennel and I thought they'd be understanding of an adjust period. Apparently not.

I went for an interview and will day this is a very nice facility.

One of the best doggie daycares in the STL area! The staff is so passionate about dogs and make sure every single dog gets the care and attention they need. Everyone is always so welcoming and happy.

We have been taking our Bernedoodle pup here for over a year. We started out with a local competitor and quickly switched to Happy Dog Spot. Tracy and her group really care for the dogs, communicate concerns and feedback readily. They have a terrific COVID protocol and we have never worried about our pups safety then entire time he has gone there. FYI-your other daycares and I guarantee you will smell dog urine. This HAS NEVER happened when we were able to take our pup inside (pre-COVID) Tracy runs a very clean facility and our dog simply loves them all!

Critical: Professionalism, Quality Don't consider if you have a larger dog, even if extremely well behaved. You will be asked to not return and made to feel as though you and your dog are being punished because of their size.

I have a very nervous rescued puppy who is easily stressed outside of his normal activities at home. He needed his nails trimmed and I called and got an appointment right away. They did a great job with my puppy and his nails. I will be going back again.

We having been taking Irving here for about 3 years and cannot say enough good things about Happy Dog Spot. Not only does he get excited about going on Tuesdays, we feel he is being taken care of by professionals. Tracy and the staff are dedicated and we never worry when Irving is in their care.

Best doggie daycare in St Louis! We have tried multiple local daycares and none compare to happy dog spot. The staff is very knowledgeable and genuinely cares about the dogs and gets to know their personalities. I have been very impressed!

Can dogs be introverts? If so, this is a day care for them. Staff is challenged by dogs who have energy and want to play with other dogs. They are comfortable with docile and submissive dogs.

I have been using the daycare for about a year. I tried several and this is the only one my dog wanted to come back to - he absolutely loves it! They have a huge indoor space and ample outdoor space, wonderful staff to dog ratio, super clean, attentive and professional staff, grooming and boarding as well.

Great space to take your dog. Clean and lots of space to run around. Staff professional and attentive

Premier dog day care and boarding! They love dogs. They have a dog-to-person ratio so they have enough people to watch the number of dogs they're caring for, and they evaluate each dog to make sure it's happy there. Love this place!

There are no words to describe how wonderful these guys are. Our German Shepherd Duke has been going there since he was a puppy for day care, agility class, and boarding. Their staff is highly professional and amazingly talented with dogs, and he's always excited to arrive. They care for him as if he is their own and they go above and beyond to make sure he is safe and happy.

I have not had the opportunity to use the daycare or boarding but I would use their daycare because they seem to have a realistic dog to person ratio (safety for our kids!) vs. many dog daycare's in that area where the ratio is up to 30+ dogs per 1 person. My Mini-Aussie goes here for agility with Jennifer H. and he LOVES IT. You will not find a more down to earth diverse trainer in St. Louis.

The staff is super friendly and they give you a class discount if your dog is a rescue! Sweet! Awesome things to know: Agility classes are $115.00 for 6 weeks (1x per week). Very reasonable and competitive. What is even better is that they only allow 6 participants per class. Which means your pup will receive plenty of time to do the course over and over! I appreciate the fact they care about your dog over $, hence the smaller classes.

Happy Dog Spot has been a great place for our rescue pit bull! Tracy and all of the staff have worked to help her fit in at daycare once a week and she received great care while boarding for a week. She loves going to daycare (she runs in the door and never looks back:) and it has been a positive socializing experience for her with people and other dogs!

We took two obedience classes here before beginning daycare and everyone at Happy Dog Spot has been professional, loving and very helpful. I drive 20 minutes out of my way to bring her here, knowing she'll be happy and well cared for!

Happy Dog Spot offers daycare, overnight boarding, and training classes. I take my Frenchie, Louie, to Happy Dog Spot for Agility Class Level 1. We have only had 2/6 classes, but so far, I am very impressed! For $105 it is a great deal and they only allow up to 6 participants, which tells me that they really do care and are not just in it for the money! I look forward to taking both my pups to some of their Just For Fun Classes.

I took my dog here for a basic obedience class. The lady teaching the class was very unorganized. Dogs were all over the place, barking at each other. She did not have her own materials but had taken them from a dog training class no longer in business. The teacher read straight out of the book, adding comments like "I don't know what that means." During the class she kept one of her own dogs in the back of the room, wearing a shock collar, and her husband would shock it any time the dog made a peep.

I went to two classes and sent my husband to the third. He was equally appalled and we didn't go back. I called the owner, explaining my concerns and requesting a refund but never heard back from her.

I ironically do not have a dog.but I was taking care of a friends dog for an evening before dropping it off at doggie day care the next day, so the dog could be boarded for the weekend. I was driving through this rainy St. Louis weather, and came up on Happy Dog Spot right off Manchester Road and the entire parking lot was flooded. I quickly got a hold of the Happy Dog Spot, and they helped me with the flooding problem.

Happy Dog Spot was so in tune with what was going on around them, and told me where to go to drop the dog off- instead of the main entrance. I was very impressed, and once I dropped my friends dog off to Happy Dog Spot pick up tent they were more then helpful and incredibly kind to the little puppy. I was impressed! and would recommend Happy Dog Spot to anyone who wants a trustworthy pet boarding or day care spot in St. Louis!
