Our dogs love going to daycare and they're always exhausted by the time they come home! Our puppy knows when we're pulling in and will sometimes jump out of the car without being leashed yet. The staff are friendly and they truly care about all the dogs. If it's your dog's first time attending daycare, they will allow your dog to try it out for a few days to see if it's a great fit! There's no pressure to sign up which is great. I love that they have several cameras that are turned on during the day (Dogtopia turns their cameras off from 12-2) so that I can check on the dogs frequently. It puts me at ease knowing that they're safe and having a great time! read more

Owner owned and operated. They have been more than accommodating! Two happy huskies -and many turn away, due to the breed reputation. I've been taking my pups here since pre Covid for the BEST SERVICE EVER!!!! I've moved away and tried others, no one compares. No one. Tried several. I will continue to drive from Galveston to Galleria because, Yes, they are that good !!!!! Worth the trip!!! So obvious,,, they care about you and your pet !!!!! Cage Free??? PRICELESS!!! read more

I have been coming to Camp Run-A-Mutt ever since August of 2021, and I love this place! Recommended by my vet, Camp Run-A-Mutt is a great place to take your dog for daycare! Since I work in Downtown, the Galleria location is very convenient for me since it is (sort of) on my way to work! They have a very welcoming front foyer and the staff are all nice and friendly! This daycare has an indoor and outdoor area, along with a pool/fountain water play area! There are no toys (which can cause aggression), so dog socialization is the number one priority! My golden retriever has an awesome time here, she comes home so tired and always wants to go back! They offer Half-Day (less than 6 hours) and Full-Day (at least 6 hours or more) packages, and none of them expires! Hope to see you at Camp! read more

We boarded our dog for the first time here. And thought it was such a good place. They had cameras where we can check in our dog during business hours. And dogs not locked up for most of the day. What we couldn't see was that they didn't pay him any real attention or check on his wellbeing. When my husband and kids brought him home we noticed the hair under his ears was all matted and sticky. We paid for him to be bathed before pickup. His ears had a terrible odor. He had scratched himself so much do to an ear infection and hot spots under his ears that it was raw and bleeding. When I called they told me they noticed he liked playing in the water a lot. And was sorry they didn't notice his scratching. My biggest complaint was that how did the person who bathed him hadn't noticed. Or anyone else who was supposed to be caring for the dogs. And why they hadn't said anything or notified us. We will not be returning and would never recommend this place. read more

I've been taking my 6 month old black lab here since he was 8 weeks old, and I can't say enough great things about these guys! Great hours and well priced. Can watch from the webcams at any time. From the second day on, they recognized my pup by name (and he's hear about 2x/week). The one time my dog was nipped at by another dog (they were changing rooms and the dogs were just overly excited) they called me immediately and let me know. I'm 100% comfortable taking my AJ to get some energy out/social interaction with them. Also- they do a photo shoot for every big holiday and give you a complimentary photo. So cute! read more

I started a new job and had to travel unexpectedly, and needed to find a place to board my family dog in short notice. I was in between camp run a mutt and another location, but the muttcams was what I was sold on. the process was so quick and easy, the staff was so kind and helpful. I watched my dog any chance I got and there was someone there with the dogs at all times. i was so nervous, and now I would recommend Camp-Run- A-Mutt (Houston-Galleria) to anyone! A+++++, five-stars! i wouldn't take my dog anywhere else! read more

Camp Run-A-Mutt - Reunited and it feels great! - Pet Groomers Near Me - Houston, Texas

We were excited to find this place for our new puppy. Little did we know it would lead to a major injury on my dog's first day. The staff seemed very kind and helpful. It was a great location for both my boyfriend and I. I would drop off and he would pick up. Our puppy's first day was Friday 4/29. The drop off was very easy and they seemed to be very caring and gentle with my dog. I was able to watch the "mutt cams" at points during the day. The cameras had many blind spots so you couldn't really see all areas. At one point I did see a woman in a green shirt swat at a dog because he was trying to get in the way of her hosing off the turf. At around 2:30pm they called us to let us know our puppy was injured. They said he was trying to jump up on to something and "landed wrong". We picked him up at little after 4pm and he was limping pretty badly and it only got worse. We took him to the vet early the next day and they told us he had a Tibial Tuberosity Avulsion Fracture. He'll have to have surgery that will cost in the range of $3k-$5k. This all happened at ONE day of doggy day care at Camp Run-a-Mutt. This is truly upsetting, and I feel like there had to be some form of negligence on their part. We definitely will not be returning. If you are thinking about taking your pet there please be cautious. They have high reviews, which is one reason we chose this place, but please consider all your options. I would hate for this to happen to anyone else. It's heartbreaking to see our puppy in so much pain because of their inability to effectively monitor him. read more

I cannot recommend this place enough! I have been taking my pup there for 2 years & she is so comfortable at Camp Run-A-Mutt; most days, she walks through the front door like the owns the place! Both of the owners, Jonathan & Phu, make an effort to know you & your pup's names & all of the staff members there do the same. I take my dog for daycare about twice a week & boarding when needed. The lobby area is spacious & clean & so are the rest of their facilities. Indoor & outdoor areas are great (outdoor has a waterfall & pool area as well as tables) and have plenty of space for naps or playing. They also have cameras for you to watch your pup! Throughout the year, they will take pictures of your pup & print/send you copies (Valentine's, Halloween, Christmas, etc.). If you need more convincing, their Facebook & Instagram have great pictures of campers & their facilities! read more

friendly and professional staff, my puppy love the staff, I highly recommend Camp Run-A- Mutt.

Was taking my dog here to day care for a little bit. Took him 3-4 times for day care and boarded him for the first time this past weekend. He was very skinny when I picked him up which aggravated me because he didn't eat well at all and when they gave me back his bag of stuff, half the food I left for him to eat was still there. Mind you, I expected all of that food to be gone by the time I picked him up. And when I called to check on him they said he was "eating well". Nice facility, but too many dogs go there at once for them to be able to focus on certain dogs the way they should. Will not be taking him back. --I appreciate the owner Jon calling me. Communication is obviously something the staff needs to work on. If anything seems off or wrong about anyone's dog (such as not eating), me or anyone else would want to know. If I knew that, I wouldn't have left him there the entire weekend if he was uncomfortable and had anxiety. My baby didn't eat 2 feedings in a row and that is completely unacceptable. I even called the facility the day after he stayed his first night and they lied and said he was eating fine. Things like that I need to know so I can take him out of that situation. In the future, this facility needs to do better. It's gonna take awhile until Koda gets reassurance and is comfortable again. He's extremely mopey and sad and I hate to see that cause all of this could've been completely avoided. read more

So I wasn't going to post about this, but I really want people to hear this so you don't take your dogs there. I picked up Very after a couple nights boarding while I was moving to a new apartment. When I picked her up, her face was caked in dried black crud, which I assumed was dirt or mud. I stopped at Pet Supermarket on the way home and gave her a bath. That's where I realized what I was washing off her face was blood. Her eye was bloodshot, swollen and bleeding and there were deep cuts in her muzzle on that side. In the interest of not overreacting, I told myself well dogs play it's probably fine. Then I got her home... I have never seen her in such a state. She was DEPRESSED. Severely. And she couldn't stop rubbing her eye. The abridged version of my interaction with the owner Jon is: called him expressed my concerns he seemed to genuinely care and if I wanted to take her to the vet they would pay, which put me at ease so I said let's give it a couple days. Those passed and she was getting worse so the next time I talked to him he kept trying to say well you know dogs get eyes like this when they have allergies. That should have been my first clue, but I let him make me doubt myself. Sunday, which was a week later, I finally took her in. Very knows and loves our vet Dr. Lina Aziz, and her techs, and has never hesitated to jump right out of the car to go inside with them. This time, when the tech opened the door, Very leapt into my lap facing away from her, trying to hide her head behind the steering wheel and shaking so violently it shook my car. The tech and I looked at each other and both went WHOA wtf is going on. We had to physically pull her from the car. I have always said she could never be dognapped, because she would just go along with anyone thinking they're her new best friend. I have NEVER seen her recoil from ANYONE. So I emailed Jon and told him what happened, that I was now convinced SOMETHING happened to her in his facility. And that it was more than just a dog interaction. He never responded, he simply made a new email cc'ing Linas clinic to pay the invoice. THIS absolutely enraged me. Something terrible happened to my dog on his watch and the second I was clear about that he cut off all communication. I emailed him again later that night telling him how I really felt, who I thought was probably responsible, and that he should look at his staff. I don't even really know what else to say because I'm so livid still. I just want anyone I know to RUN in the opposite direction from Camp Runamutt on 59. They don't ACTUALLY care. read more

our dog attends doggy daycare once a week at the galleria location. he's still a young boy at age 3 with plenty of energy, constant zomies but after a day at Camp-Run-A-Mutt he's lethargic. we also board Buddy there because we prefer pack sleeping over being in an enclosed area alone. Our dog loves when he hears he's going to doggy daycare and yanks on his leash on the way in the door. we absolutely love this location, employees and manager are super friendly and love all the dogs. read more

I picked up my dog from boarding for a few nights. She came back THINNER. No one at the front desk could explain to me why she looked skinnier. I understand dogs become stressed when boarding and may not eat, but for some reason I was not informed that she wasn't eating. At other places, parents receive a report card indicating if their dog has eaten every meal and which staff member took care of them. I find it super strange that no one called me to tell me my dog wasn't eating because clearly that was the case. This is outrageous. Did she eat her breakfast on day 1 of boarding? what about dinner? did she have normal bowel movements or stressful diarrhea? WHO KNOWS! Take your dog somewhere else where people actually care and watch to make sure they are eating their meals, having normal potty habits, and exhibiting proper socialization during daycare. read more

So I read all the great yelp reviews, and thought this would have been the best place for my newly adopted fur baby! So I was wrong... Upon walking in, there was one person at the desk, she was friendly enough, but my bf or I didn't really feel that comfortable. She explained what would happen and that we could watch the temperament test on a tv in the front. We signed paperwork in the meantime, and waited for them to start the test. They took our nervous baby into a room with one person and brought in one dog at a time, until there was about 5-6 dogs I believe. He was scared, and this test was a little fast for him, we thought. We did tell them beforehand that he likes to warm up before having several dogs in his face. And this is exactly what happened. So the test lasted about 6 minutes before they brought him out and said he failed. The same person who was at the front desk brought him out, said he didn't do well, handed us his leash, and that was it. I asked her when he could try again and she said 6 months. But she offered no other info, and seemed very uninterested in us or the situation. We never got to see the facility, but on the camera we did see that there were upwards of 40 dogs in what looked like a small space. This may work for some people, but we are ok that this didn't work out for us, Dogtopia on Westheimer is a much better fit, and their entire staff is friendly!! So don't give up if your dog doesn't fit in here - there are so many great places to go! read more

Terrific. First of all the place is clean. At least up front. They care about their clients. I don't even have to walk them inside in the morning just open the door for the business, let their leashes go and they fly to the back for admittance to the play area. They go two half-days a week and that's enough to wear them out. All I have to say at home before we leave is "let's go to school" and they race to the back door to get in the car. Once I complained about our smaller dog being pulled by an employee with her collar on around her neck. I raised hell about it and it didn't happen again. Nice place. Good owners. There are fancier places to take your dog in Houston but I have no problem with them coming here at all. They have also had "sleep-aways" here too. read more

Awesome daycare owner all staff are so welcoming and warm . This place Truly cares about my dog which is the best feeling . I know she loves it she never wants to leave which is good that means she had a great time . The place is clean and just love it Also she pull and runs hard to get inside I know she truly enjoys it . read more

This establishment is horrible. My dogs were perfectly healthy and happy when I left them off. There were only there two days and one night and when I got them back, my boy dog had what seemed like the flu. Thick green snot and was very fatigued. And my girl dog got giardia and has had severe diarrhea. And she's very skiddish if you try and pet her. I suspect that they hit her. Will never send them there again. read more

Best to not take any small dog there. Was watching in the cameras while in the business and was so upset at seeing my small dog overwhelmed by 15/20 large dogs in a small space. No wonder she was shaking before going in. No wonder when I said dogie day care to her that she hid. I had to forgive myself for sending her there I spoke with the staff, but sadly they just said it has always been this way and the chain just does this. Please think again about sending any small dog to this business. read more

I've been going to this daycare for over a year and a half. The staff is always pleasant and the facility is so clean! I have been to other daycares in Houston and this is by far the best. They take the time to learn your name and your pets name. Love them!! I highly recommend them! read more

We are very happy with Camp Run a Mut having used their daycare, boarding, and grooming services. Their pricing is very competitive and the staff are very personable and know the dogs they care for by name. A useful addition to the list of services would be individual training. read more

They do a great job, the furr babies love going there and have fun time.

This place is one of the top reasons I miss Houston. My dog always came home from boarding exhausted from all the play time he got. In fact, after his first boarding, when he realized we'd come back for him, at every subsequent boarding he didn't want to leave!!!! I still remember him looking back repeatedly and whining as we walked out the door. In every boarding place before and after, he rushes out the door when we pick him up, but not at Camp Run-A-Mutt! Not to mention, I love being able to check up on him with the doggy cameras I just picked up my dog from holiday boarding in Portland, and it reminded me how much I missed Camp Run-A-Mutt. read more

We have been taking our dog Piper to Camp-Run-A-Mutt for over three years. Piper lives going and in fact heads for the door to the other dogs as soon as we walk in. The owners and staff go above and beyond to help us when we need it - like when we need to board her at the spur of the moment or taking her during the winter storm because they had power. I can't say enough awesome things about this facility. read more

We have been sending our four legged kid to camp for over a year now and are extremely happy. They have been on point when it comes to care and addressing needs. Our pup has a special diet and lot of allergies, camp stays on top of it and communicates as needed. read more

Camp Run-A-Mutt is the greatest place to take your pup for a fun-filled day. We've been taking our dog here for about a year now and she loves it. The staff are extremely friendly and do an amazing job taking care of your dog. Their kennel-free facilities and segregated yards (high energy and low energy dogs are typically kept separate) make for an excellent experience for your best friend. The outdoor yards have covered areas, misting fans and a fountain (high energy side) to help keep the dogs cool in the Houston heat. When it gets too hot, they have indoor facilities (also segregated) to allow for additional play in air conditioning. In addition to daycare, Camp also offers overnight boarding for those times you have to travel and leave your buddies behind. Pricing is extremely reasonable for daycare and boarding, which is made even better if you purchase multi-day packages all at once. The staff does a great job keeping track of your usage and gives you reminders when your packages are almost up. Most importantly, my dog is extremely excited whenever we pull up to Camp Run-A-Mutt. She knows exactly where she is and can't wait to get in and play with her friends! I can't recommend this place enough! read more

I have been bringing my frenchie Brutus here for several months now and I feel when I drop him off he's in excellent hands. Their facility is so clean and I love that their outdoor area includes a little doggie pool. Staff is always friendly read more

Camp Run -A-Mutt is an amazing place for pets and owners. My pup Mello has the best time here and made tons of new friends (I could see on the dog cameras). It is also great for owners because you can drop off any time, pick up any time and you don't have an appointment. The staff was great and super helpful. I loved the report card after his first visit that described Mello perfectly. I will definitely be taking him back! read more

We board our dogs here often and they come for doggie daycare at least once a week. Our pups are always so excited to be there (even our shy older dog) and they come home happy and tired. We have attended other dog daycares in the Houston area and none compare to Camp Run-a-Mutt. The staff have really gotten to know each of our dogs and their individual personalities. It's so reassuring to know they're in good hands while we're at work or away. They genuinely love dogs at CRAM and it shows! read more

Have used them multiple times for boarding. I wish they had the cameras on during weekends. Staff very friendly and knowledgeable. Clean! Hassle free booking over the phone. Very serious about up to date vaccinations! read more

Heard about this new doggie daycare through a friend and I'm so glad I brought my puppy to check it out! They just opened about 2 months ago so their facilities are brand new. Customer service is always great there and the owners are very nice. In addition to daycare services, they also have grooming and boarding and their prices are very affordable. I also love that their only a few blocks away from my apartment. One thing I thought was really cool about this place was that their inside play area has a garage door that opens and connects the inside space with the outside. read more

Nothing but amazing things to say about Camp Run-A-Mutt!! My pup, Kori, LOVES it here. The staff makes us feel like family. She never leaves unhappy. If anything ever happens they contact you! And don't forget to give you a breakdown of anything that I need to know. She recently wasn't feeling well and they went out of their way to document everything for me to give to the vet. She's even better behaved after going here. She will even sit when she is told regardless of excitement level! This place is a blessing! read more

My senior Chesapeake absolutely loves this place. He has had fear/anxiety for his entire life - but this environment has brought out the very best in him. He doesn't even like to ride in the car, but all I have to say is "let's go to camp!" and he jumps right in! Thank you Jon, Phu, and the entire CRAM staff for making Brady feel at home and providing top notch care for our boy. read more

My very favorite doggie day care!! We absolutely love the owners and the staff. We left our one year old golden here for eight days and we bring her often for day camp. We love love love the muttcams you can access during business hours! This is literally a cage free day camp...as in no cages even when boarding. This is the ONLY day camp that has exhausted our puppy for days!!! Finally a doggie day camp we think is worth the money!!!! read more

I just picked my boys (4 month old cattle dog mix and almost 2 year old lab mix) up from their first day at camp. Wow they had a blast!! I can't say enough about how great the experience has been for me and for my boys. From the very beginning, John and Phu have been phenomenal. They answered all of my questions when I called on the phone, eased all my concerns when I went in for a tour and the temperament test, and even remembered all of our names when I showed up to drop them off for the first time. I absolutely loved the fact that I can watch them on the mutt cams during the day and that I get a report card at the end of the day when I pick them up. Seriously, if you are looking for a place where your dog will have a great time, and be VERY well cared for...this is IT. read more

Camp Run-A-Mutt - When we got home they crashed! They had so much fun at camp. - Pet Groomers Near Me - Houston, Texas

We love Camp Run-A-Mutt! After rescuing a big energetic dog, we didn't think we would have enough time to give him the energy all day he needed to get our during his puppy stage, CRAM made sure to treat him as if he was theirs while were are at work. Ruger loves going & we love how worn out he is after a day out at camp! The staff there is out of this world! read more

I liked this place a lot and my dog Pepper really enjoyed it too. Most of the comments are accurate with regards to the staff being friendly/good with dogs and the facilities being pretty clean. But one day Pepper was seriously injured here when her nail was ripped off exposing the entire quick, and they didn't even tell me when I picked her up. I need to be able to trust the people caring for my dog enough to tell me when something requiring vet attention occurs, and they did not meet that expectation. read more

It was my first time taking my boy to a daycare. The staff here were really helpful and awesome! They answered all of my questions. It's not a kennel caged area, so all the dogs roam free. I loved the fact that they had cameras around so I can check up on my pup when I had the chance. This would be my go-to daycare from now on! read more

Camp Run-A-Mutt - My dog sleeping on the rock.. Haha! - Pet Groomers Near Me - Houston, Texas

BEST DOGGIE DAYCARE IN THE WORLD !!!! The owners and employees there are so friendly to you and your puppy.

I have gotten an inside view from one of the employees of how the daycare is run and it's overcrowded, generally unsafe, and many aggressive dogs are allowed to stay and play here, despite numerous incidents. They told me that the employees are frequently injured by these out of hand dogs as well and that many unfixed puppies (even those who are not large breeds) are allowed to go unchecked for months after the 7 month cut off date. After hearing what the conditions really are like, I would never ever board my dogs here ever again. There are many other daycares in Houston where I can take my business. Seems like the owners just care about making money and not the safety and happiness of the dogs and the employees watching them. read more
