    I'm shocked that this facility received any great reviews. I was raised by a veterinarian and dog trainer, and am also a former dog trainer myself. I say this because i get that dogs will be dogs. So my gentle pup started his 1st day today, and within a few hrs I received a call that he got a "scratch" in his nose in play. Well, 1st red flag was every time I looked at the cameras(which was often) he wasn't playing. More nervous, and to himself since it was, well his 1st day! A bit more time went by, and he wasn't any happier, so I decided to go pick him up. I walked in and received a welcome packet, with no notes about his day...and then my pup. Now I've seen and cleaned a lot of scratches in my life, and the second I saw his face I knew he was bit. I told the receptionist that it was not a scratch, and she went and got the manager. She looks at it, SHOCKED and said she had no idea!! I went to ask her how they wouldn't see a dog get bit (were they watching). I showed her the 2 punctures,  and THEN she proceeded to tell me that "your dog got in blablablas face and he gave a reactive bite". 1st off, they say they don't take any aggressive dogs, 2nd, the management lied to me on they phone saying it was a play scratch,  KNOWING my dog was fuckin bit, 3rd she tried to make it my dogs fault, when all he was doing was greeting another dog and 4th, he was keeping to himself the whole time! I think I would have been more understanding if she wouldn't have lied to me. But how are we supposed to trust them on a weekly basis and while gone out of town, when they can't be honest? Once we got outside, he peed and pooped as fast as he could, because he held it the whole time. I personally noticed those thing about a new pup or any pup that would come into group with me. Judt so frustrating.. In the end i can only blame myself that I didn't do better research, but I'm definitely writing this review so no other parents or pups have to deal with this behavior.

    Worn out from playing all day at camp!

    I highly recommend this location! My dog Argyle is a completely new dog after going here! It's like Montessori for dogs! Plus the staff is amazing and so LOVING to everyone and I am so protective over my fur baby! If you truly love your dog you won't leave them at home you will take them to Campbowbow in Aurora!

    After day care today before we pulled out of the parking lot!

    This place is amazing. The staff is excellent and they learn your dogs name and they truly love being around them all day. We chose to put Gabe into daycare to help with his confidence with people as well as other dogs. He is a rescue and we think that before he went to the rescue we got him from he was abused. I told them that from the start and they took extra caution with him his first day and he warmed up to everyone right away. He gets excited now to go and doesn't even need a leash to get out of the car because he knows right we're to go and get let in. He has so much fun playing with the other dogs that when he gets in the car he is pooped. I have complete trust in this staff to care for my dog while we are at work during the day and when we need to board in the future.

    Be aware: This facility allows dog aggressive dogs, into their play groups! My dog was seriously injured by another dog while under their care. My dog's back leg was literally ripped open down his layers of skin and to his muscle. By a reactive dog, that turned out was previously known, to be overly dominate. To the point that the dog has cause injury to other dogs while under their watch. My dog received staples, not stitches because of the internal injury and a drain was placed into the wound. So that it did not abcess. As the puncture went deeper into his muscle tissue. This happened at daycare so of course the management are not liable. (You sign a waiver when bringing your pup to the facility.) Which honestly, their contract means nothing because Aurora Animal Control, and Aurora's dog attack Laws nullifies it. So $300 just came out of my pocket of course, which I had no problem with. My dog's health is more important than money, and I'm not going to pay upwards of $1,000 in small claims court. My problem was the fact that management tried to brush this incident under the rug. They didn't even care to ask if my dog was alright after his immediate visit to the vet. Also they were to allow the dog who attacked my dog back into the building! They never even contacted the dogs owner until corporate had to step in. They made no incident report either, which is mandatory by their corporate office. (When I spoke to the district manager, she was getting more upset as she found out that they broke several of corporates policies. Including allowing dogs who injure employees back into the building. They also do not follow the correct number of dogs that can be in a play yard. Which is only 15 dogs to every one counselor.) If my dog was just minorly hurt from just playing too hard, I would not have cared. Even though I know my boy can be dominant, hump once in a while. HE has NEVER played hard enough. To EVER cause any injury to another dog, person, even children and cats. He didn't even hurt the other dog! As he was being held and then another employee rushed in. On camera, literally had to rip the other one off of mine to let my dog go! Absolutely disgusting and ridiculous that they held my dog by his collar as he was being attacked by another dog. The manager literally just simply told me they held my dog because he was the bigger one. It doesn't matter the size of my dog, if he was a Chihuahua or a Great Dane. You do not hold down the dog that's being attacked. Especially if he is not fighting back!!! I watched my boy on their camera recording, crying out as this other dog was biting at his stomach and his legs. Thrashing his head around once he grabbed ahold of my dog's leg. The other dog was clearly trying to fight my boy. To which even my veterinarian wrote a note about the fact that this injury would be considered as a dog attack.

    Bite from another dog at camp bow wow

    This is what happens when you allow your dog to go to be at camp bow wow Aurora. I expected a fun and safe environment for my dog. I picked up my dog from camp bow wow and I noticed fresh blood on my hand from petting him. He got a severe infection and the manager Amber said the owner would pay have my vet cost. Not only did they not find the dog who bite my dog the owner did nothing. To all dog lovers this is not the place for your pups. After a week the owner offered me 3 days of free daycare. Not an apology or even asked personally how my dog was. I will never go back to this facility and please beware your dogs safety is at risk.

    Took my girls to Camp Bow Wow for their initial interview and play time 5/27/19. They loved it. We brought them back the next day for a slumber party. Everything went great. Nothing but great things to say for about the staff. Very friendly. I love when people talk to my dogs with the baby talk! They do too. We will definitely be coming back. Love the dog cams so I can watch my dogs while away.

    I love everyone who works there - they treat my pup like he's theirs! They are always accommodating for feeding and late pickups.

    Cat people know the anxiety is real…read more If you've ever left town and immediately wondered, "Are the cats plotting revenge or are they okay?" then you get it. We used Denver Pro Pet Sitting while we were on vacation and it was an absolute lifesaver. They checked in on our cats, made sure everything was taken care of, and sent updates that made it clear our little furballs were living their best lives while we were gone. Reliable, communicative, and clearly people who genuinely care about animals. It's such a relief knowing your pets are in good hands instead of just hoping the automatic feeder doesn't become their new enemy. 10/10 would trust them with our cats again. Pretty sure the cats didn't even miss us.

    Denver Pro Pet Sitting deserves all the praise in the world! First, they have great communication…read morewith multiple ways to communicate with your sitter. You can text, email, or respond in the portal. The sitters give you great detail on your pets bathroom and eating habits and medications. They also provide lots and lots of pictures! I was unfortunate enough to have an emergency while on vacation with no way to get home quickly or call anyone. Nelson and my sitter were absolutely amazing in handling the situation with urgency, care, and communicated with me the best they could given my limited availability. I hope I never have another emergency when I'm gone, but if I do, it's Denver Pro Pet Sitting I want taking care of my pets. Finally, they do their best to assign the same sitter every time. I really love seeing my sitter comment on my dog's health improvements since previous visits and makes me feel like they genuinely care about my pets and their well being.

    I have 3 rescue dogs. I absolutely love them to death. They are the sweetest, most loving animals…read morehere at home. Two of them are my problem children: a Rottweiler mix foster fail who is reactive to bikes and other dogs and occasionally nervous around people like visiting contractors or UPS men, and the other is a 100+ lb Brazilian mastiff rescue from Aruba who is not fond of other dogs. The two of them began showing increasingly worse dog aggression toward other dogs on the trail and while camping, and had attacked several dogs by the time I found Loyal Hound/Juliet. I was at my wit's end, because I had already spent thousands of dollars and tried everything including other trainers at that point with little to no progress. I felt stuck with 2 big problems for the next 6-8 years. I hike at least 3 miles every single day off leash on the trails by my house, and I love to camp with my dogs in the summer, but they became such a liability that walks became stressful and camping became impossible. I finally found Juliet with Loyal Hound, and for our very first session we met at a crowded park and were going to be doing off leash training right away. I was so nervous -- all the triggers were present: other people with dogs on leashes, dogs off leashes, people on bikes, squirrels -- so I was absolutely AMAZED when we were walking my Rottweiler off leash through a gaggle of geese, past people on bikes, and past other dogs within a few minutes with no problems. It was nothing short of a miracle. Within a few sessions, I had both of my dog aggressive dogs walking on and off leash next to me, passing other dogs (sometimes dogs that were even barking at them) on trails safely with no reactivity. I cannot explain in words how much of a difference this has made in my life -- I feel like I got my life back. If you have a dog aggressive dog, this is the place to go. It's WELL worth the investment, and you will be amazed at the difference you will see in your dog. Thank you Loyal Hound & Juliet!!

    I have so many amazing things to say about this training with Juliet. I just had a follow up…read moresession, 4 months after our off leash training, because I had gotten a little lax with one of my dogs since I have a 1 year old and things are hectic. Within 5 minutes we were able to re-establish the training methods that work and get Hope back on track with easy leash walking. I am so impressed with her concise easy to follow instructions. I am looking forward to taking my two Samoyeds on walks again while walking my toddler in a stroller without having to worry that Hope will pull us. Trained dogs are safe dogs and I'd pay for the training with Juliet 10x over. Worth every penny! It makes my life easier as a single mom managing all the things to have two dogs that get to enjoy being outside with us because I trust them and they trust me. Don't hesitate if you need help with your dog!
