I love the fact I can take my dog here to an actual dog washing area. They provide shampoo, conditioner, ear wash, towels and the doggy dryer. The price is very reasonable to use this facility. I can leave the entire mess there and come home with a clean dog. Staff are very friendly and willing to answer any questions.

Our rescue dog, Sunny, is 5 months old and CRAZY full of energy due to her genetics (beagle, coonhound, lab and weimaraner!) She struggles with separation anxiety and some pre-adoption PTSD. She loves K9 Kamp doggy daycare, and we watch her all day on the live feed they have! She's truly turning into a different dog; more confident, social, and happy. Thanks!

My pup loves going here! He drags me through the doors to get in and couldn't care less that I'm leaving for the day. The staff is great and they always tell me how he did that day, which surprises me with so many dogs that they are able to really remember what each does that day. Zero complaints!

I can't say enough good things about Chad and his staff at K9 Kamp. We've had 2 dogs attend day care there. Both dogs have benefitted by the socialization they receive with other dogs and people. We have a pandemic puppy, and it's been hard to socialize him. They've filled that gap very well. I know our dogs are safe and happy there. Bonus is that they're tired after a full day!

We have a 10-year-old Black Lab who sometimes can be nervous. We had not been to this facility before, called them up, had an interview (mandatory, which is wise), and took our dog for 1/2 day of daycare. He did great, and the staff said they couldn't believe he was 10, because he acted more like he was 4! They said he's welcome back anytime. We then brought him for an overnight when we had to be out of town, and the staff couldn't have been better! I recommend this place highly! They are fantastic!
