Riverside Kennel Pet Resort

Riverside Kennel in Fort Worth is by far the best boarding and daycare business in town. We have tried other places, but have not been nearly as pleased as we have at Riverside. Suzette runs the business, and she absolutely loves what she does, and it shows because she knows the dogs and cares for them as if they were her own. Her staff is friendly and takes great care of your furry friends. Plus, taking your business to Riverside is a great way to learn about local and state current events that pertain to animal rights, adoptions, etc., because they always have flyers and information for you to look through and pick up if you are interested. The Riverside staff never force their beliefs on you, but I will -- our animals need a voice and they need someone to stand up for them. Riverside is located just east of downtown Fort Worth off of I-30 and Riverside. Its not the greatest location, and we were somewhat skeptical at first, but the dogs are safe and secure, and there isn't any way people who shouldn't be there are getting in because of the security. You have no reason to fear the location, because the care and attention that Riverside gives to your dogs will outweigh any concerns you may have by far. The rates are very reasonable, and are at least as good as (if not better) than any other location in Fort Worth. So take you puppies to Riverside if you need to board them while you are away, or let your dog go have a playday with Suzette and her staff. It helps socialize your dog, and allows them to burn off any excess energy they may have that you would otherwise have to deal with. Our pups are always absolutely worn out when we pick them up after a weekend, and that tells me they had a great time playing! Support Riverside! Pros: Staff is caring and knows the dogs, affordable, safe more

Highly Recommended.\r \r We're into year three [3] taking our standard poodle, Achilles, to Riverside Kennel. For newcomers, the location may not be in the swankiest part of town, but we all know puppers don't judge the book by how it looks!\r \r Suzette and staff have kept Achilles for each vacation and they also groom him. Each time we pick up or drop off Achilles, he's happy to see Suzette and her team! \r \r Honest business. They really take the dogs out to play and keep them entertained as well as on regular potty schedules. They are fed and kept happy with filtered water, clean suites and lots of love and interaction. \r \r Prices are very reasonable and you won't ever worry about your dog. Suzette kept us up to date as often as we requested while on our two-week vacation! \r \r If you love your pup and you don't want to worry while you're out of town, you will not be disappointed in Riverside Kennel. Pros: Honest, Dogs are truly cared for more

Toby loves going to “work” at Riverside Kennel. He’s a daycare regular and found his place in the pack as the “Official Riverside Kennel Greeter.” He can’t wait to jump in the car in the morning for the daily commute. Whether he’s lounging under the shade, showing new dogs the ropes and introducing them to the rest of the daycare gang or patrolling the bone yard, Toby LOVES his job! When I pick him up he’s always happy and energetic – no small feat for a 10 year old dog. Toby and I highly recommend Riverside Kennel as a great place for dogs. Suzette’s passion for dogs is evident and the facility is spotless. The staff is awesome and they know so much about dogs. Riverside is more than a job for Toby – it’s his home away from home. Pros: Suzette and her dog-loving staff more

We love taking our Hank to Riverside. He gets so excited he starts to whine when we turn onto Riverside Drive. Starts ""talking"" to the other dogs before we pull onto the property! He comes home happy and T I R E D!! Suzette knows our boy as well as we do which tells me she spends her time WITH the dogs. It is also reassuring because if he's not feeling good, she lets us know. Riverside is like family and the best ever. Pros: Suzette, Suzette, Suzette!!! more

Since moving to Fort Worth, we searched high and low to find a place for our dogs to stay while we traveled. We are so lucky to have found Riverside and Suzette. Our dogs get so excited to be there and practically let themselves out of the car when we pull up. Suzette treats them as her own and pays very close attention to them. We feel very happy that they are there when we go out of town. We could not ask for a better home away from home for our dogs. It is the best in Fort Worth if not the metroplex. Pros: Treat your dogs like part of her family more

We consider ourselves very lucky to have found Suzette Watkins and Riverside Kennel. Our ""sensitive"" little dog loves visiting Suzette, and we are able to travel without guilt, knowing that our little family member is enjoying herself in a health, warm, safe and affectionate environment. Riverside's hours are great, staff is wonderful and it is a happy and healthy ""camp"" for our beloved dogs. Pros: Professional, dog-loving, spotless and fun! Cons: None. more
