Daniele did a wonderful job on my Hinze 57 Buddy. He looked like a Wookie when I brought him in, but like a show dog when she finished. Best haircut ever!! She is very kind and her love for dogs is obvious.

Camp Bow Wow has been taking care of our dog for almost three years and we couldn’t be happier! Our dog is very picky about where she goes but whenever we tell her its time for her to go to the “school,” she gets so excited and happily heads out the door. That alone means so much to us because she generally doesn’t like going out. We trust the team completely and truly appreciate the care and love they give her. It’s such a wonderful feeling knowing she’s happy and in good hands so we know it’s the same for other dogs. Thank you, Camp Bow Wow! 💕

Our dog loves going here for daycare and boarding. They offer cameras so you can watch your pet playing with the other dogs. You can also purchase one-on-one playtime, snuggle time, or enrichment activities and they'll send you photos of it.

From her very first day, my dog absolutely loved it here—she came home happily exhausted! I recently boarded her for four days, and having access to the webcams gave me such peace of mind while I was away. The staff is incredibly friendly and truly treats her like one of their own. Every time she visits, they give me sweet updates about the new doggy friends she’s made. I also love adding the extra activities; getting photo updates during the day is easily the highlight of my afternoon! We’ve used them several times now with zero complaints, and I will definitely continue bringing her back for daycare. Highly recommend!

We have been fans for years now. Our Willow is made to feel welcome every time. This last time we brought her for day care, we included a bath and nail trim. She came out happy and clean!

Willow is most definitely a ray of sunshine! She makes us smile every time we see her. Thanks for choosing us!
