Canine Campus

Our K9 Boarding service provides a structured, stress-free environment for dogs with twice-daily feeding, medication administration, and 20 minutes of supervised playtime. Rooms accommodate 1-3 dogs, with optional a la carte activities like scent games or walks. Pets enjoy private runs and a consistent routine to ensure comfort during their stay.

The Cattery offers a quiet, dedicated space for cats with twice-daily feeding, litter maintenance, and play sessions. Enclosures include separate areas for sleeping, dining, and exercise. We accommodate special dietary needs and provide a safe environment for feline guests to stretch and socialize in controlled settings.

Baths and Brushing services include maintenance brushing for tangle removal or a thorough bath using groomer-grade shampoo. Pricing varies by coat size and condition, with options for towel drying only. Services are provided as time allows, ensuring pets remain cooperative and comfortable throughout.

Scent Games are 20-minute enrichment sessions designed to stimulate dogs mentally and physically. Using snuffle mats, hidden treats, and interactive containers, this activity improves focus, reduces anxiety, and provides low-impact exercise suitable for all ages and abilities.

K9 Daycare offers structured play sessions and socialization for dogs, including 20 minutes of group or solo playtime. Services run Monday-Friday with limited weekend availability. Pets receive snacks, supervised exercise, and access to private runs during their daytime stay.

I absolutely love and 100% trust my dog going to Canine Campus! We used to go to Skydance, but I much prefer my dog being taken care of here! The owner and staff are very humble, hard working and communicate well. There are no "receptionists" that greet you, it's the staff that work directly with the animals, which is nice so if you have feeding or behavioral comments, they double check to make sure with you before you leave and don't have to second hand communicate that to another staff section.

My dog is a little nervous going to new places, but when I picked her up, she was happy and well taken care of. THANK YOU Canine Campus for being so reliable when I am away. Another small plus is that I love to see the bison herd from the local farm right across the road when I have dropped my dog off in the morning. :

Our rescue has a lot of anxiety and has not been boarded for a long time. The staff here is the best! So caring and knowledgeable. Macie adjusted so well under their loving care. I cannot recommend Canine Campus enough!

My dog has a lot of anxiety.so I was hesitant to board her when I went out of town. Canine Campus Pet Resort did a great job of reassuring me. They coordinated a private kennel room for her so that she could have her quiet time. They also have an exercise/cuddle package where they will have extra socialization or exercise time. They sent me several updates on her eating and exercise while I was out of town. She looked terrific when I came and picker her up. This is a place that's well staffed with people who love animals. You can feel very comfortable leaving your furry friend under their care.

Our 3 dogs were just kenneled for first time at Canine Campus (CC). Stayed almost a week. Highly pleased with care they received and the professionalism of the staff. We have used other kennels in the area and feel the services received at CC were exceptional in comparison. Highly recommend!

We took our few month old kitten here. They sent us pictures and let him roam around and made sure he was doing good. They were responsive and let us know if he wasn't eating, etc. They are also very affordable considering all of the work and care they put into the pets. We will definitely be coming back here!

Our dog, Benjamin just returned from a week stay at Canine Campus. They are just THE BEST! Their entire model focuses on your pet to keep them happy and healthy during their stay. This is definitely, hands-down the very best boarding facility we have ever used. They get to know your pet individually and staff members spend time with your pet each day during their stay and they get to experience the outside in grass areas, not just in kennel runs.

While we were away, they sent us a picture of our dog (which was unexpected and entirely appreciated) and I phoned to inquire how he was doing. Received a return phone call very promptly with a detailed update. My only regret is that the boarding facility is not closer to our home. we drive 1.5 hours to have our dog stay at Canine Campus. that is also a testimonial for how excellent they are. Keep up the great work to everyone at the facility!
