I highly recommend this facility.
Traveled from Myrtle Beach, SC, to Charlotte and boarded our two dogs for one day and night while we went to the NASCAR race Memorial Day weekend. They were so helpful from the first time I called. The young girl at the desk was so welcoming and remembered our pups' names. We also received a first responder discount. I highly recommend this facility.
Arlene Brust
Absolutely recommend daycare & boarding!
Absolutely recommend daycare & boarding for your pup here! The staff is extremely friendly, helpful, and they go above and beyond! It took my pup almost no time at all to get adjusted when we moved here, and he is always beyond excited to start his day as soon as he walks in!

Camp Bow Wow is the best!
Camp Bow Wow is the best! We have taken our dog to a couple different daycares in Charlotte and Claytor has the most fun by far here! The staff are always so kind and caring, and he’s always exhausted after. I like being able to check on him throughout the day on the cameras too.
Jenna McKeown
I Love Camp Bow Wow!!
I love Camp Bow Wow!! What really makes this place is the staff. They are friendly and compassionate. You can tell they really care about the dogs. My dog is high energy, but they’re so patient, and I always feel comfortable leaving him there. I also love that they have cameras so I can watch him playing with his friends!

Teresa Turner-Hall
I Would Recommend Camp Bow Wow
I was in panic mode when I called Camp Bow Wow for a holiday reservation. Maddie was so sweet and thorough. We actually took Bogie for an "interview." I was very pleased with the way she received him when we arrived and assured me he would be okay. I would recommend Camp Bow Wow to any pet parent! This place gets 5 thumbs up!
Audrey Leeper
Our dog gets so excited to go to Camp
Our dog gets so excited when we ask if he wants to “go to Camp” and runs in the facility. I really like watching him on the camera, and the staff has always been super friendly and kind.
Juliana Chansky

Great place for day care and boarding. The staff are great and very caring of the dogs. Both of our dogs are happy and excited to go in every time and happy and tired when they leave.
Rick Cloutier
My dog loves coming to daycare here!
My dog loves coming to daycare here! Maybe not the fanciest place around South End, but the excitement my dog shows when we pull up, and the love he gets from the staff... not to mention the very reasonable rates... make it the perfect place for us!
Suzanne Baker
Camp Bow Wow is my dog’s favorite place.
Camp Bow Wow is my dog’s favorite place. The staff is always so friendly at check-in and checkout, and I can tell that they truly care for the dogs that stay with them. I’ve dropped my dog off for both daycare and overnight stays, and every time I pick him up it’s like he doesn’t want to leave because he has that much fun there. I love that I can text Camp Bow Wow during his stay to see how he’s doing, and it’s a plus that they offer the live webcams. The facility is clean and they offer exit baths, so I never have to worry about picking up a smelly dog. I definitely recommend this location for anyone’s dog care! Thanks, Camp Bow Wow!
Maddie Rhodes
Our babies are always so excited at Camp Bow Wow!
We are a family of 3, but 5 if you count our babies Dash and Daisy! We have been going there for 6 years and always happy with everything, and pups are too! And our babies are always so excited when coming to Camp Bow Wow they can barely keep still! And no matter what, they always come home exhausted but so happy, and we love seeing our pups happy! And everyone there is always super helpful and they always recognize our babies and take them in with a smile! Madison and Carly (not sure if correct spelling) are always so nice and make us happy to see them! Definitely recommend!

Bowie Always Comes Home Happy and Tired
I can’t say enough wonderful things about Camp Bow Wow! Our dog Bowie absolutely loves it here, and we have total peace of mind every time we drop her off. They offer different enrichment activities every day that help the pups decompress and have fun to where they forget they are at daycare. I don’t have enough space to say how much we love Maddie and Karley! This place would not run without them! They both go above and beyond in taking care of our dog and treat her as one of their own! Thanks to them, Bowie always comes home happy and tired from a day full of fun and attention. We’re so grateful to have found a place where she’s not just safe, but loved. Thank you Maddie and Karley and Camp Bow Wow for being the best place to take our dogs in Charlotte!

10/10, Worth the Drive!
I drive 25 minutes each way to bring my puppy here because they are simply the best! I love sending her to daycare knowing she gets to play with all her friends and has the best time! She is a very high-energy lab puppy and they embrace the chaos that is her :). Thank you to all the amazing staff for loving Charlie and letting her get some energy out! I have also boarded her with them multiple times and always have a great experience. The staff is SO kind and caring and truly dog lovers! We love camp! She has a collar I only put on her when going to daycare and let me tell you, she goes crazy with excitement the second she sees her collar. 10/10, worth the drive!

My dog loves Camp Bow Wow and so do I!
My dog loves Camp Bow Wow and so do I! The staff are so friendly and truly care about my dog. Camp has fun enrichment activities for my dog to take part in, and the staff are happy to take requests for play time. I enjoy seeing photos of my dog’s enrichment activities and being able to check in on her when needed. Best of all, my dog comes home tired from a successful day at camp. Her excitement to return the next time does show me that she really enjoys Camp Bow Wow. Highly recommend for day care and boarding services.

I completely trust them with my dogs

My Dogs Love Coming Here
Not only do my dogs love coming here, but I do too! Everyone is always very welcoming, and I love that they split their play groups up by size. My 15 pounders get freaked out by bigger dogs, but they have a blast at Camp!
