- GVGretchen Vinson6 days ago5.0I have board my dogs at Waggin'Tails Animal Inn for years. My dogs are always well cared for and the staff is GREAT! I never worry about my "fur babies" while at Waggin' tails. I also bring my babies for day camp so they can play with other dogs!

Frequently Asked Questions About Waggin' Tails Animal Inn
Are you locally and family owned?
Indeed, we are a locally owned, family-operated, and woman-led enterprise. Our business has been proudly serving the community since 2005, backed by over two and a half decades of experience in pet care services.
What does "all-inclusive" boarding mean at your facility?
Our all-inclusive boarding service encompasses a comprehensive stay for your pet with a single nightly rate, eliminating any unexpected charges. Each night includes personalized playtime sessions, and attentive care from our certified staff. We provide premium pet food, though you're welcome to bring your own, and we'll administer any necessary medications as per your instructions. Our pricing is based on nightly stays rather than daily rates, offering you greater value and flexibility during your pet's visit.
Do I need to have my dog evaluated before their stay?
An evaluation is not mandatory prior to your dog's stay with us. However, we do offer new clients a complimentary day of doggie day camp. This provides an excellent opportunity for your dog to become acquainted with our staff and environment.
Do you offer tours of your facility?
We are pleased to offer complimentary tours of our pet resort. We would be delighted to show you around our facilities and address any inquiries you may have in person. We look forward to meeting you and your pet.
What grooming services do you offer?
We have a full time groomer and full service pet spa. Our full grooming services include breed-specific hair cuts, deshed treatments, baths and brushouts, pedicures, and anal gland expression. Please call our email our office for pricing and availability.
Do you offer dog training?
We do! Our AKC certified trainers offer onsite, one-on-one training during Daycamp or off-site at your home or location of your choice. We also have training classes throughout the year including our Wag' N Train (basic training), Canine Good Citizen, and Puppy Train classes. Please call or email our office for pricing and availability.
Do you have more than one location?
Our Fulshear location, Waggin' Tails Pet Ranch, is also all-inclusive and offers the same all-inclusive services as Waggin' Tails Animal Inn. Check out that location at www.waggintailspetranch.com
What happens if my pet becomes ill during their boarding stay?
If your pet becomes ill and needs medical attention, we try and have them seen by your veterinarian. If not possible, we will take them to an emergency vet. Our We treat every pet who boards with us as if they are our own; their care and comfort are our highest priority. We charge a nominal fee per pet, per stay for our guests who qualify* to be covered under our Vet Warranty. The Vet Warranty covers vet bills up to $500 incurred by an illness or injury due to boarding up to 7 days after the pet leaves the Ranch.
*not every pet that boards with us is eligible for the Vet Warranty. Exclusions include dogs and cats 10 years of age and older, pets that are not dogs or cats, and pets with some pre-existing conditions. Contact us with questions and for more information
What should I bring with my dog for their boarding stay?
You can bring anything that makes them comfortable- toys, bedding, treats, etc. We provide a cot and bedding if needed.
Do not bring: food/water bowls (we have plenty!), rawhides, or anything you would be devasted if it gets lost or damaged.
How do I find out how my dog did during their boarding stay?
Our staff gives report cards for all dogs' first boarding or Daycamp visit. We will also answer any specific questions you have when you pick up. You are also welcome to call our email to check on your dog during their stay.
I'm leaving my dog over a holiday when you are closed- who will take care of my dog that day?
There are several holidays a year when our office is closed for drop offs and pick ups, but our kennel staff is here 365 days/year, providing excellent care for our boarding pets.
How does your Day camp pricing work?
Our Daycamp is $32/day for those who only need an occasional day and want to pay each visit. For our clients whose dogs come frequently or on a regular schedule, we have punchcard packages available. Baths and rinses are an additional charge.
I want to bring my dog to Daycamp on the days I go into the office. How early can I drop off? Do you feed my dog during Daycamp?
We offer Daycamp Monday-Friday. Dogs can be dropped off as early as 7am and picked up as late as 6:00pm. We do not feed dogs during Daycamp for safety reasons.
Do you accept non-spayed and non-neutered dogs?
Yes, we do. Waggin’ Tails will do everything possible to get your dog(s) into a playgroup or playgroups but it is our policy to restrict playgroups (NOT playtime) for non-neutered and/or non-spayed dogs. We are very careful how we place dogs into playgroups and safety is our number one concern. While some dogs play well with non-neutered/non-spayed dogs, many will “bully” or attack the non-neutered/non-spayed pet without any other provocation. Waggin’ Tails staff members are responsible for watching and monitoring multiple playgroups and may choose to play with your dog in a solo situation if there are no safe playgroups available. Please feel free to ask us any questions you have regarding our safety policies.
policy. We are committed to providing a safe and fun place for your dog while your family is away.
My female dog is in heat. Can I still board her?
For safety reasons, female dogs may not come to Waggin' Tails while in heat or up to 14 days past active heat. We also do not accept pregnant dogs.
