our little guy goofing around during his 1 on 1 enrichment time
Sara C.

After thoroughly researching all the doggy day care and boarding options in the area, I was comfortable trying out Camp Bow Wow. What drew me to Camp Bow Wow, was 1) the high reviews, 2) the competitive pricing, packages, a first timer discount package (which is great option for new clients!), and 3) the separation between large and small dogs. Upon our initial interview with my 4 year old chihuahua mix, I was extremely happy with how the staff informed me of the process, their standards and what to expect going forward. You could tell he was a little nervous at first being at this new day care (we had recently moved to the area). They were patient with him and slowly introduced other dogs of the same size. Even with a shy stint to start with he passed the interview and was able to stay for the rest of the day.When I picked him up, you could tell he had a great time and was tired out (which is why I bring him!). We have also utilized their boarding service. We added a cuddle time enrichment and sent us pictures during it. Such a nice touch to see our baby happy and healthy while we were away. Overall, I have been very happy with the staff at Camp Bow Wow since! added bonus is being able to see him on the cameras, and I think they spray them with deodorizer before they send them home, because he smells good whenever I pick him up! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a daycare or boarding facility.

Checking it out

As anyone can tell, I am dedicated on finding the best care for my two Malti-Shitzu's.. I was excited to try Camp Bow Wow, because I have learned, to always have back ups. I filled out the forms online, and they had called to set up the appointment. It's convenient, and located right next door to my dealership. Staff and management was friendly and provided information. We also took a tour of the facility. It's clean and spacious. My main reason to wanting to become a customer was to also utilize the grooming facilities. For a dog owner that has their dogs groomed 5-6 weeks, it is best to have all housed in a one stop shop. The dogs passed with flying colors on the interviews (social butterflies).. and they were able to stay at least the three hours to be observed. No charge for the initial interview is too notch! I do like how the cameras are easy to view from our phones, and they have a schedule of taking the dogs out. Prices are competitive with our other two daycare facilities we alternate with. I think today's visit was a win win! They are closed on Sunday's, and at 4 pm. Definitely will bring them again for day of fun. Once they find a groomer, I will post an update. Thanks Camp Bow Wow for choosing a South Reno location and giving us another alternative!

I had high hopes for this place but it's declined with each visit (now our 3rd). The second time I paid for a special bath and cuddle time, but when we picked our dog up she smelled distinctly of urine. So they didn't keep her away from what we're other dogs urine on the floor. This time - again - our dog smelled of urine and each time she's been very stressed upon pickup likes she's ready to get out of there. It's sad b/c I think the place has potential but the attention to detail is lacking and it's wholly unacceptable to pick UP your dog smelling of urine from a doggie day care when she didn't smell like that upon drop off. Oh and this was the picture they sent me from "cuddle time" - an upgraded service. But I don't see my 'dog' in the photo and there was 1 sent over 5 days of boarding. Disappointing to say the least.

We took our 2 dogs there and they are unsanitary, smelly and came back with Kennel cough among other issues. We will never go back.

I had been taking my Shiba Inu here for the past few months as this is a convenient location and my…read morehusband and I occasionally would need her to be watched for a workday here and there. The good - the female facilitator and the other gentleman were very sweet. They gave a great tour, and were always happy to take calls or answer questions. I think this place is great for folks who work on USA Parkway, or folks who are content with quick exchanges with no feedback. The bad - Unfortunately most of my drop offs consisted of dealing with Thomas, the owner. He made it clear pretty early on that he thought me and my dog had "anxiety issues". When I picked my dog up each day I liked to ask how her day was, as I'm genuinely interested (I love my dog lol) and it's nice to make small talk. Thomas took this interaction as me thinking my dog had a problem, and would make comments about my dog having some type of issue. He constantly rubbed me the wrong way, saying it was incorrect for me to say goodbye to my dog as it would increase her anxiety, and mentioning that I shouldn't call in to check on her. The final straw was today, Thomas had made a comment to my husband yesterday that my dog was "nippy" with him, and I wanted to talk to Thomas about it directly as I was genuinely concerned about my dog showing potential signs of aggression. Upon me asking him about it, he immediately let me know I should probably find another daycare, as I'm the owner he deals with that has the most issues or concerns. I tried to amicably let him know I'm only trying to get more information on the situation, but he kept insisting I go somewhere else since I'm not happy. This was a totally unprofessional way to speak to me, and as a paying customer I think it's well within my right to ask second level questions about my dog's behavior. I will be taking his advice, and going to a different daycare that doesn't view me as a problem customer for checking in on my dog or asking about her at pickup. 2 stars because they helped us out during days we needed dog care, and I'm appreciative for that!

We boarded our 2 dogs for 5 nights. When we picked up our dogs, Mia our 3 yr old was reverse…read moresneezing really bad. We were told she does that when excited. She has never done that!! They then rushed us out as fast as they could. When we got home we knew something was wrong with Mia. She had zero energy and that reverse sneeze was horrible. The next day we called our vet and made an appointment for Mia. The vet on the phone said it's most likely Kennel Cough and we had to wait in our car until they cleared the area for Mia to come in. Kennel Cough is highly contagious. Dogs can get it even though they are vaccinated, which Mia is. After examining Mia the vet confirmed she had Kennel Cough and prescribed an antibiotic for her. She didn't start to get back to normal for six days. Finally she's back to being our Mia. Our other dog, Emma, was ok when we picked her up but started showing signs of Kennel Cough the day after pick up. We called the vet and got meds for Emma. Emma's illness was not as bad as Mia's so she recovered much quicker. The owners have a new puppy in the office area and everyone going in and out are exposed to whatever illness the puppy has. The owners even mentioned the humidifier in the office was for the puppy due to breathing issues. I'm guessing the puppy spread Kennel Cough throughout the whole facility. We tried contacting the owners but it kept going to voicemail. We left a message and have never heard from them. That's no way to run a business. I will never bring our dogs there again and will never recommend them to anyone. I'm actually surprised they have been in business for as long as they have been. If you cherish your pups find another place that actually cares.
