How do we compare?
Choosing care for your dog starts with understanding the people, spaces and daily routine. Here is how camp works at Dogs at Camp, with answers to common questions about your dog’s stay.

Your questions, answered
Here are our answers to the questions that matter when choosing care for your dog. During your visit, we can discuss how camp would work for your dog’s needs.
Who is there overnight?
Management stays on site overnight, supported by audio and video monitoring. Dogs settle indoors for the night, with someone nearby. Please discuss any particular overnight care needs with us before booking.
How is suitability assessed?
Before the first stay, visit with your dog for a tour and assessment. You meet our team, see camp and help us determine whether it is a good fit for your dog. You may reserve preferred dates while waiting for your assessment; reservations are confirmed after we have met you and your dog and confirmed that camp is the right fit.
Which spaces will my dog use?
Dogs have indoor and outdoor time in our two fenced play parks and large indoor playroom, with rest breaks and adjustments for the weather and their comfort. The parks are part of our approximately 100-acre country property; the wider property is distinct from the fenced everyday play areas. Trail walks are optional paid outings.
Where and how will my dog sleep?
Dogs settle into carefully chosen groups in our kennel-free, climate-controlled sleeping spaces, with heating and air conditioning. Crates are available for dogs accustomed to sleeping in them. Tell us what helps your dog settle at home so we can discuss their sleeping needs before the stay.
How is the day supervised?
Our Camp Counsellors supervise play and guide introductions and interactions with other dogs. The day balances indoor and outdoor activity with quieter time, according to each dog’s comfort and energy. Dogs eat separately and rest after meals.
What is included, and what costs extra?
Standard care includes supervised group play, indoor and outdoor time, meals using your dog’s own food, and rest. Overnight boarding also includes sleeping accommodation and overnight management presence. Trail walks are a paid add-on; seasonal swimming may be included in a trail walk with your permission. Video updates, bathing and individual activities are optional extras. Check our current rates for taxes, peak-period conditions and departure charges.
Comfort and everyday care
Indoor comfort
Our sleeping spaces are heated and air conditioned. Dogs have indoor rest options and shaded outdoor areas. Crates are available for dogs accustomed to sleeping in them.
Meals and rest
Dogs eat separately and have time to rest after meals. Bring your dog’s normal food, and discuss medications, supplements or other care needs with us before the stay.
Daily essentials
Fresh drinking water, clean bowls and bedding care are part of the daily routine. Ask us how we manage your dog’s comfort and care throughout a stay.
