Specialties

Day Camp (Doggy Day Care)

Long work day? High energy dog? Separation anxiety? Bring your dog to Camp Bow Wow for a day at Camp! Early drop-​off and late pick-​up allow you to focus on your daily routine while your dog plays with our Certified Camp Counselors® and his or her favorite canine friends. We’ll find the play group that best fits your dog’s personality and size while you find the schedule that best suits your dog’s needs. At the end of the day, each dog goes home tired and happy. That’s good for your dog, and good for you, too!

Overnight Camp (Dog Boarding)

Vacation? Business Trip? Allergic house guests? Home remodeling? Bring your dog to Camp Bow Wow for an overnight stay! Overnight Campers stay busy with Camp activities during the day and go to their cabins for meal time and bedtime. All-​day play, private cabins, and plenty of canine and human contact help your pup sleep soundly at Camp Bow Wow while you are away.

Home Buddies (In-​Home Dog Care)

Does your dog prefer to stay at home? Not a social dog? We also offer in-​home daytime and overnight visits. We offer anywhere from 30 minute visits to caring for your pup while you’re away on vacation. Contact us to help find the best program that fits you and your pup’s needs.

Why Come to Camp?

Eliminate dog loneliness

Relax after your dog’s long day of play

Dog socialization can help lead to better dog behavior

Lots of physical and mental stimulation makes a happy dog

We bring our dog here any time we go out of town. Overall, the staff is very nice and helpful and we can tell our dog enjoys her time here. We have a very playful and energetic dog and it’s great to know she gets to play the whole time we’re away. When we get back it’s like she doesn’t care about us at all because she’s had so much fun — and she’s always exhausted.
Some reviews talk about lack of staff caring for the dogs, but we haven’t had that experience at all. Whenever we watch the live web cams we see a staff member present. One time they called us because they noticed our dog had a little scratch from all the playing. She was fine but they wanted to let us know so we weren’t surprised when we picked her up.
If you can have your dog here, I would suggest it.

After bringing my older dog here, she got extremely ill with kennel cough that turned into pneumonia. I haven’t brought her back since she exhibited symptoms. I wish others would do the same, and that Camp Bow Wow would clean and/​or sanitize to prevent this sort of thing. I’m out over $ 300 for lung x-​rays and two different antibiotics, and my dog is absolutely miserable.

I will admit, my dog is a bit of a wacko (lol) He’s had a bit of a tough albeit short life. He barks a lot and can be aggressive to other dogs, especially larger dogs out of fear. We were taking him to another day care where he had been attacked and almost killed by another dog. So once he was all healed up from the previous daycare encounter we decided to look for another dog day care that separates the dogs in to groups by size. They do this here at camp bow wow.
My dog seems to be happy to come to camp bow wow. He gets excited when we pull up and is tuckered out by the end of the day. The employees know him by name and he gets excited to see them, which makes me feel good about him spending his days here. We have tried a couple different day cares and this seems to be the best fit for him, quirks and all.

It makes me sad when I have to board my dog here, it kind of feels like dog jail.
When you drive up, you can hear all the dogs barking incessantly, and sure enough when my dog comes home after boarding here, she is hoarse from barking all weekend.
When the dogs have play time, they don’t have a human in the pen, and from what it looks like the dogs spend the whole time scratching to out. It may seem silly, but the simple act of having a human in the pen with the dogs can make the whole playtime a lot more mellow and friendly.
One time in particular, my tiny dog came back after having been peed on – I don’t just mean there was a little pee smell, like her whole body smelled like pee. I understand that accidents happen, etc, etc, but it made me feel really sad to think that my dog got covered in pee and either no one noticed at Camp Bow Wow or they noticed and didn’t call me to see if I wanted to get her a bath (they also have grooming services).
The staff in general is super friendly! I did have one very negative experience with a staff member, but I think that was just a one-​off because everyone else I’ve dealt with has been very helpful.

I have total confidence in the staff and feel safe leaving my pups there for day camp or for longer trips away. They are great with the dogs, let you know how they are progressing, if there are problems, and my dogs get super excited when they know camp is on the horizon.

I have been bringing my Husky here for a couple weeks now and he loves it! He enjoys his time with other pups and is so tired when he comes home. It definitely helps me and my fiancé since we work long hours and don’t get enough time with him during the week. We have been bringing him every other day since he’s so tuckered out after a day at camp.
The hours here are great and I can bring him right before I head into work and pick him up right after. I can also check in on him playing on the webcams. FYI, it’s addicting to watch! Everyone knows my pup by name when I walk him in and his butt gets moving when he knows where we are. I definitely recommend this location!

Note all of the bad reviews on here are because their dog isn’t welcome at Camp Bow Wow for some reason or another…
For those of us who actually have dogs going to Bow Wow … It’s great! My doggie comes home everyday super happy, tired, still smells good. I’m thankful they have a tough screening process so I don’t have to worry about the safety of my dog.
Only complaint is I feel they have too long of rest times, which takes away from play time (the reason my dog goes there). The dogs are separated and alone from 12 – 2 and again at 4pm. I know they do it to ensure your dog doesn’t die of dog bloat or whatever but I think that window is a tad lengthy for what it should be :)

I give this camp the lowest possible rating due to the fact that the staff have inconsistent protocols. We have a highly anxious dog who was adopted, we took her in for a ‘trial day’ where the manager spent time giving her treats and trust building. Amy did great with our dog on that first day, and said she was welcome to ‘come back at any time for a trial day.’
However, when my partner brought her back Amy changed her mind about accepting her for the trail day and we were turned away because our dog was nervous. She is an anxious dog, she gets nervous when she sees strollers go by. She will always be nervous, but I was assured the camp could handle it. Amy gave me false confidence that camp bow wow would be able to handle a dog that needs patience. This inconsistency was incredibly inconvenient and I would have never sent my partner back had i known she would be turned away.
When I spoke with Amy she said she didn’t want to rush our dog. I am disappointed that they didn’t step up an hold true to their own timeline previously expressed. They were full of confidence and lacking completely in initiative and follow through. If we stayed on my dog’s timeline, she would remain attached to our hip. That is the purpose of dog camp, was to socialize her away from us.
This may be because we are gift card holders, and therefore not paying upfront, although we were looking for a long term camp for our dog. We will likely be going somewhere else that has the confidence in the training of their staff to accept a dog who has initial anxiety, but no aggression. If anyone wants this gift certificate and has a dog with no special requirements, we’d be happy to get it off our hands.

I own a Coton de Tulear and attempted to have her seen today so that she could stay there tonight. We had all her shots paperwork and ready to go but the snob on the phone indicated they weren’t doing anymore interviews. It’s a last minute trip and would like an overnight place for our dog, hopefully they can learn to have some procedures in place for such last minute travelers. Will never go there.

This time I’m sad for my review of Camp Bow Wow. While Sprout was treated with amazing care during this and past visits. I was told she is not invited back. She’s an older dog, on no meds… but apparently isn’t welcome anymore. The girl that explained the situation to me had zero sympathy… I love my Older dog… and really hoped she could continue with the great 24 hour care that was offered here, sadly if I leave town we will have to have a whole new situation for her.

Completed interview, trial day, and another day of camp. Planning to board there over Labor Day.
LIKES: Times open. Location. Friendly staff. High quality streaming video to watch pups playing from work.
LOVES: The report card sent home with the pups after their trial day. Camp Bow Wow made me feel comfortable leaving my dogs with someone who cared about their well-​being.

Camp Bow Wow used to be AMAZING, now it is just so-​so. I don’t know what happened, but I feel like they are never organized and tend to make excuses.
Either I am really spot on at catching the exact moment in the day that my dog is locked up or he is locked up all the time. When I call to ask about him, they say he is taking a «mandatory break in the kennel» or that they are short staffed. I understand he needs to take breaks, but if you are short staffed and can’t manage to let my dog run around for the day, you need to tell me I can’t drop him off or stop taking drop-​ins. I am not paying $ 25 a day to have my dog sit in a kennel when he can do that at home.
I’ve also had a recent issue with a lost leash. They admitted there was a similar dog and the leash must have gone home with them instead. Did they call the other dog owners to ask if they had the leash or apologize for the mistake? Nope. The leash was expensive.
This place used to be great. I’m sad it has gone so far down hill. My pup loves going to day camp, I just wish I could be confident he is in good hands.

Mowgli always looks like he’s having a great time at Camp Bow Wow Lodo! The fact that he runs right through the gate when we drop him off speaks volumes!

My dog is so happy every time we get to Camp Bow Wow. Every time we pick him up he is dog tired from all the playtime he gets. It’s also a huge plus to get to watch our dog play on the live stream cameras.

We had our first overnight stay– and were nervous picking up our pup since we have had such horrible experiences at other dog boarding facilities with weekend boarding. Olive came home with tail wagging and nothing more than a bit of dirt! We checked in on her via the puppy cams and she always looked happy. Amy the manager is delightful and really seems to love her job. It shows in the pride that her and her staff take while watching everyone’s furry babies. I would recommend this place (and have) to anyone that wants a SAFE, fun place to leave your pup completely worry-​free!

I am very satisfied with Camp Bow Wow in Lodo. From the first time we took Sam, our puppy, we found the staff really friendly and helpful. The play spaces and «cabins» are clean and well-​maintained. Most important, my dog is happy every time I pick her up. She loves to go to daycare or overnight camp at Bow Wow! So glad we found this place!

So far all of the employees have been really kind and understanding of my almost daily phone calls (I’m a crazy pet parent!) I like that they know Dylan’s name and all seem to really be dog-​people. I also appreciate the cameras, because I am a crazy pet parent and I like to be able to see my girl having fun during the day! I also like that the facility is large and has an outdoor area which offers plenty of room to run around, which for me is very important.

We started taking our high energy dog, Moose, to Camp Bow Wow for day camp last December when he was about 6 months old. Moose loves arriving to camp and comes home each night happy and very tired. We feel that he is very safe at camp and take him 3 days a week to help manage his energy levels. The entire staff knows our dog by name and he loves greeting each and every one of them.
We (and Moose!) absolutely love Camp Bow Wow and can’t say enough good things about it.
