Kelly is so awesome. She's very organized and has her protocols all worked out. She understands what dogs and their guardians need to feel comfortable in a home away from home. She'll first have a meet and greet to assess your dog's temperament and readiness for day care. She requires up to date documents for vaccinations. I realized in my research that a lot of the day cares for pets just have them penned up for most of the day which my dog would find boring and sad, but at Kelly's Kamp they are mingling in a pack, running and playing on the dog friendly grounds, and have access to her as their surrogate human which is what most of our dogs need. She also provides loads of pictures on the daycare's social media page so you know they are safely enjoying their day and you can have peace of mind. My dog came home tired and happy! read more

Kelly is the best! Kamp Kelly is like Disneyland for dogs -- with so many play areas, different themed rooms, and spacious outdoor spaces. Kelly is incredibly sweet and thoughtful. She sent me so many adorable photos of my dogs playing and making new friends, which gave me so much peace of mind. This has truly been our best daycare experience. I highly recommend it -- especially for birthdays. It's such a special treat, like taking your dog to Disneyland! read more

I can't say enough great things about Kelly and the way she cares for dogs--she's truly one of a kind. From the moment I drop my dogs off, I know they're in the best hands. She treats every dog like part of her own family, not just a pet she's watching. What I love most is that the dogs are free to roam her home and yard. There are no cramped crates or small play areas--just a warm, loving environment where dogs can relax, play, and be themselves. Her yard is spacious and secure, and inside, it's cozy and welcoming. My dog felt right at home from day one. She always sends updates, knows every dog's personality, and genuinely loves what she does. I feel completely at ease knowing my furry friend is with someone who cares as much as I do. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and experienced--someone who feels more like family than a sitter--Kelly is the one. Highly recommend! read more

I have to agree with all the other 5 star reviewers about KAMP KELLY--this place is a real find. Kelly is a true dog whisperer. My dog can be a little bit quirky but Paco took to Kelly right away. He loved the "kamp" too--complete with tunnels, grass, vegetation--lots of space to run around and explore. I'm a snowbird and will be using KAMP KELLY a few times a month while I'm in the valley, mostly because my dog seemed to have such a good time there but it was total peace of mind for me too. Kelly sent me pictures of Paco throughout the day--I was concerned because it was his first time. She slaps a diaper on the dogs so that they can run in & out of the house with no worries. I'm very impressed with this place and I'm pretty sure Paco can't wait for next time. read more

Kelly is amazing as is her "kamp." Our dog had the best vacation ever there, and Kelly kept us up to date with his activities while we were gone for a week. We'd never boarded our little guy before and she made us all feel safe and comfortable. Daddy the pug will definitely be making a return visit! read more

I was very happy with my dog's daycare experience at Kamp Kelly. My dog is a friendly, lovable beagle but . . . he can be a handful at times. Kelly was very patient with him and he came back good and tired! I highly recommend her. read more

Kelly's camp is definitely in a league of its own. It's not just a doggy spa, it's high caliber and very heart centered. Kelly goes above and beyond by making your dog comfortable by using any place.They want in the house.Her check in policy is amazing.And you can tell how much she cares about all the animals. You'll truly never find an experience like this.It's one in a million. Again she goes above and beyond sending photos throughout the day.And if they stay all night in the morning. read more

Kelly is amazing! Our Boston terrier mix stayed with her for the day while we had a spa day nearby. Her place is a dogs dream with beds and turf and pools to cool off in (or just drink out of if you're out dog). She is great at communicating and sent us plenty of pictures so we could see that our dog was having the best time! Highly recommend if you're in the area read more

We can't thank Kelly enough for taking such good care of our Chewy. We have never left him with anyone and if you can't take your furry kid on your vacation then Kamp Kelly is the next best thing. Kelly worked with us 3 weeks prior to get Chewy used to her camp so he would not be so anxious. She helped us in plan for all contingencies. Chewy has experienced both her daycare and boarding. Having both available has been a blessing. He had great fun meeting & playing with other dogs his own size, exploring all the camp's hidden areas and picking out his own comfy spot to sleep in from many different options. Kelly takes lots of amazing photos with an artistic flare. She shares them with us daily and on social media while we were away so we could see how he was doing. She is flexible in the range of care she offers to provide and you can see she truly cares for all the dogs under her care. She has turned her home into an amazing Oasis that our furry friends could only dream of until now. I just love all the canine inspired art in her garden and inside her home. We are so glad we found Kelly and just in time. Thank you so much!!! read more

My dogs get excited to go to Kamp Kelly! For them it's like an extended stay at a dog park. They get to interact w other dogs of similar size and good temperament. And Kelly herself makes sure they have a great time... acting herself as the pack leader. The dogs love and respond well to that interaction. The facility is truly dog heaven! So much to do! So much fun for them. Kelly designed it from a dog's perspective. That's why they get excited to go here. No fear! Just excitement. They even get to pick their own cozy place to sleep at night. It's given me my life back... the ability to travel a bit with peace of mind. I care so much for my two babies that it was otherwise hard to leave them anywhere. Thank you Kelly for that! And for taking such good care of my best friends. Kamp Kelly is dog paradise. I highly recommend it. read more

We have been leaving our dog (Roo) for stays at Kamp Kelly for the last 3 years and feel very fortunate to be able to do so. Kelly is a crazy dog-lover who has effectively given over and converted her home into a boutique dog hotel with multiple indoor and outdoor spaces that the dogs can explore and play freely, along with a bunch of comfy beds for when they're exhausted from a long day chasing each other. She's constantly updating and upgrading to maintain and improve the spaces. Kelly seems to be quite discriminating about the dogs she'll accept - insisting that the pack comprise of compatible dogs - in terms of both size and temperament. When we arrive at KK, Roo jumps up to affectionately greet Kelly and then runs straight in to meet the other dogs without looking back. We get frequent texts with pix of the dogs playing and sleeping which is comforting (all the attached pix came from Kelly). The most gratifying thing to see is our little darling dog visibly torn between coming home again with us and staying with Kelly. If I was a dog - I'd insist on staying at KK's boutique resort. read more

Kamp Kelly is more than a place that just kennels your dog. Kamp Kelly is like home only with fun outdoor activities and lots of other dogs to play with! My dog Eddie joined the pack when he was three months old, and Kelly knew I was very nervous leaving him for the first time. She assured me he would be ok and sent me pictures/updates the whole time I was away. On average, I travel once a month to visit friends and family & I wouldn't think of taking Eddie anywhere else. Kamp Kelly is his home away from home. Thanks for everything you do, Kelly... you're the best!! read more

While on a month long trip out of town, it was always such a joy to see all the pictures Kelly posted of the dogs on her Instagram, and we loved reading all her funny captions. Kelly is a real dog lover, and there is no doubt she is a pack leader! Our dog Moon not only had a fulfilling experience at Kamp Kelly, but he even returned home more mature, calmer, and easier to be around other dogs. (He had some issues with some dogs before). Whenever we think of going for a trip or even a getaway weekend, we will always bring moon to Kamp Kelly! read more

I enjoy traveling and 2x a year I travel to the east coast to be with family and spend about 10 days there. Once again I want to say how thankful I am of Kamp Kelly. The peace of mind knowing that my fur baby Bella is safe and well taken care of by Kelly is priceless! My Bella loves Kelly and enjoys spending time with all the kampers/doggies. My Bella can be a little diva at times and I'm so thankful for Kelly's knowledge of caring for dogs with all different types of personalities. read more

I have left Bella at Kamp Kelly's since she was a puppy. Bella is almost 3 years old. Kelly is the absolute best. I love the daily pictures. I love that Bella is at home with Kelly. I never worry, knowing Bella is well cared for. I will never leave Bella with anyone else!! read more

Kamp Kelly is an amazing place that cares for doggies when their parents need a get away! When stepping onto the property, it is as if you were transferred to an island resort. (A place where we would want to stay for a vacation with all the amenities anyone could wish for to enjoy!) Kelly is the most caring person who has a great personality -- she truly demonstrates her love and passion for dogs. We recently left our three kids (aka dogs) with her while vacationing on our honeymoon out of the country for a week. We had a fabulous time knowing that our kids were being loved and cared for while we were away. We cannot recommend Kelly enough and will continue to use her services in the near future. Thank-you Kelly!!!! read more

My girls are regulars at kamp. They love it. These last several weeks have been challenging weather wise with winds and now heat and wind. Kelly has lost several umbrellas keeping the compound shady for the kids. Markita and Zoomie want to say thank you, Mom too. You rock Kelly read more

Like 'Disney for Doggies' !! Kelly has turned the entire facility into doggie playland. Many areas to run and play, even a (shallow) pool when it gets hot. Indoors, there are so many places that dogs can 'nest' - something for everyone. Out little girl found a comfy bed in a bookcase! read more

Kamp Kelly is the real deal! I mean this in the most complimentary way: this is not a doggy day care. It really DOES feel like a summer camp for dogs. My wife and I have a new puppy and needed to board her for a few days and were not psyched about it. (Separation anxiety works both ways folks). But at drop-off Kelly gave us the tour of her camp and it immediately clicked -- this is a place designed for dogs to actually ENJOY the day. There's a shallow pool, toys to play with, lots of well-shaded areas to rest, tons of plants, water bowls, dog beds, a cooled indoor areas -- Kelly has clearly designed this entire place with the dogs' experience in mind. And Kelly will keep you posted on how your dog is doing during their stay, which is a big relief. Plus you can take a peek at the instagram whenever to see how the camp is going. Strong recommend, our little Mabel will definitely be going back. read more

We were visiting the area for a week and looking for a day camp/ activity experience for our 4.5 yr old bernedoodle. Kelly was informative and detailed during our phone conversation. She provided information on timing, other dogs that were her "regulars" who would be around with my dog, and the activities she would engage my dog in during day. At the start of the first visit, Kelly gave us a walk through of her "kamp" / house where she hosts the dogs and answered all our questions to our satisfaction. Kelly was flexible with the days and time around our schedule and sent me pictures throughout the three days my dog was with her. After spending the day at Kelly's my dog was happy (so I knew she had a good time) and tired. Whenever we visit the area again, will be sure to use Kelly's services for my dog. read more

Thank You Kelly for doing such a great job taking care of our Buster. We needed a Mom and Dad weekend to go out and explore the Palm Springs area. We first met with Kelly to evaluate our French Bulldog Buster and we could evaluate her as well. We left with confidence that our puppy would be in good hands. While we were away from our Buster, Kelly kept us posted with both texts and pictures so we could see that Buster was enjoying himself. But we know he missed us as much as we missed him. If you need someone you can Trust please contact Kamp Kelly Ron Griswold 10/18/2021 read more

Both of my dogs love Kamp Kelly! They have tons of fun running and playing and hanging out. Thanks for taking such great care of my girls!

Just finished boarding our dog for a few days with Kelly on our way to La Quinta and we couldn't be happier. It was the best boarding experience we've had, Kelly sent tons of pictures and updates on how he was doing and we felt comfortable the entire trip that our dog was in good hands. Our dog can get sad when we have to board him but not this time, he spent so much time running around and playing he slept the whole ride home. I recommend Kamp Kelly with enthusiasm if you're in the area! read more
