Camp Canine

I cannot recommend Camp Canine highly enough! It is the first (and only) daycare my dog has ever been to, and she loves it. They have so many great add-on activities (including walks in Central Park), which make Camp Canine extra special. The staff are all very friendly and helpful—I also appreciate how easy it is to communicate with them via email. If you’re looking for a great daycare for your dog, send them to Camp Canine!

I’ve been taking my dog to camp canine since he was 5 months old. It was a fantastic socialization experience when he was a puppy and he grew to absolutely love it! It’s been 2.5 years now and he still goes and knows “camp canine” by name. The staff here are so friendly and recognize and greet my dog by name every time he comes! Amanda is the absolute best and treats my dog like an absolute king - will even personally send me photos when he’s there - my dog adores her! The owner Mike is so responsive and truly cares for all of the dogs. Brenda is so caring and sweet with my pup and all of his friends! Lena and Aria are always very responsive and friendly when I call or am dropping off and Lynn goes out of her way to find a spot for my pup when he needs a bath or grooming. Speaking of grooming, I cannot recommend Kathy enough for doodles - she just nails it! I am so grateful to have Camp Canine in the neighborhood and always know my dog is getting the most attention and love when he’s there. Highly recommend!

I was deeply disappointed with our experience at Camp Canine. We were interested in boarding our puppy, but the process was far from satisfactory. Before you are able to board your dog, you must have them pass a test day.Upon arrival for our test day, we were met with minimal explanation about their procedures. Instead of a proper tour, they abruptly took our puppy from us, which was distressing, especially since she had just been nipped at by another dog in the lobby—a situation that the staff did not address.When we attempted to see the boarding area, we were quickly shooed away by staff and asked to leave. The brief glimpse we got of the kennels was unsettling—metal crates stacked on top of each other with no bedding, in a harshly lit room.At pickup, we were informed that our puppy had "failed" her test due to poor social skills, which was surprising and uncharacteristic of her behavior. She has always been playful and affectionate, and we've never witnessed the issues they claimed. Moreover, we were pushed to speak to a manager who had a shortlist of trainers we needed to consult before trying another test stay. It felt like we were being upsold, and that having us sign up with one of their preferred trainers was the entire point of the day.We received no information on if our puppy had eaten, gone for a walk, or gone potty.We decided to use Rover instead and found a much more caring and accommodating sitter for our pup. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend Camp Canine and would suggest exploring other options for your pet’s boarding needs.

Our dog Kirby loves Camp Canine!! She immediately runs down the hallway to the back and gets so excited when she sees counselors. The staff are so communicative and really care about the dogs wellbeing.

Having to leave your four legged best friend to be boarded for the first time is never easy especially if your furry friend has severe separation anxiety (he wasn't invited on the vacation) so I looked into several places for Teddy to stay at and found there was only one place I could trust my favorite boy with and that was Camp Canine.Teddy (a 3.5 year old Goldendoodle) had been there before for daycare and grooming and always seemed happy compared to other places. So I dropped him off and he didn't even turn around and cry because he knew he was going to have fun. The only one with tears was me.They went above and beyond to reassure me that he was in good hands. I received daily emails on how he was doing and even providing pictures. Knowing he wasn't anxious allowed me to extend my trip which was such a gift.Their entire staff is dedicated, sweet and caring. I also have to mention that the facility is so big that Teddy had room to do his daily zoomies. It is also extremely clean. That was really important to me because the other places I looked into were not clean and I was not comfortable leaving him in a place like that.When I picked him up he came running down the hall with a huge smile and when we got home he slept for 26 hours. He definitely had the time of his life and I am sure can't wait to go back.Overall a huge success and a big thanks to the entire family at Camp Canine!
