Our dog Michi loves Camp Bow Wow
Our dog Michi loves when he goes to Camp Bow Wow in Elmwood, NJ. He runs from the car to get inside. They have clean play areas inside and outside. They always offer many extra activities for a small fee, well worth it, such as puzzles, hide and seek with treats, ball pits, and cuddle times. The staff are professional, friendly, and offer a safe environment for Michi to spend his day while we are working.

The staff was extremely welcoming
I took my dog for an interview and the staff was extremely welcoming. I appreciate Anthony, Christina, and Michael (hopefully I got everyone’s name correct). I also appreciate the interview process being free as I’ve seen other places charge a fee. The facility was clean and all the dogs who entered the building seemed so excited to be there. It’s extremely important that I send my dog somewhere that is welcoming, attentive, safe, and overall a positive environment and I feel like this location may be all of those things. I also like having access to the live camera feed which gives me peace of mind. I look forward to sending my dog here more frequently.
Chavonah
The Best Place Ever
The best place ever. I felt very secure to leave my pet at this location. The staff is very friendly, helpful, and very professional. They have the doggie cams so you can see for yourself how your furry pet is doing. I recommend 100%.
Lil Perez
Complete Peace of Mind Every Time
There’s truly no place other than Camp Bow Wow Elmwood Park where I would ever board my dogs, Juba and Bug. Leaving your pets behind is never easy, but I have complete peace of mind every time they stay here. I know without a doubt that they are exceptionally well cared for. Roman and his team are incredibly attentive and genuinely engaged with the dogs—they’re not just supervising, they’re interacting, playing, and making sure each pup feels comfortable and happy. One of my favorite features is the live camera access. Being able to check in and actually see how Juba and Bug are doing throughout the day is invaluable. Every time I look, I see them being treated with care and attention, which reinforces my trust in the team. If you’re looking for a place where your dogs will be safe, happy, and truly cared for, this is it.
Jennifer Makroulakis
My Dog Loved Camp Bow Wow
I have been looking for a good daycare for my dog and was recommended by Adrianna from Camp Bow Wow. My dog knows her from another daycare that I stopped taking my dog to because we were not happy with them taking care of our fur baby and they had no yard for the dogs to go outside. My dog loved Camp Bow Wow and he got to see Adrianna again that he loves. So glad she recommended Camp Bow Wow. They took so good care of our boy. It is great the dogs can go in and outside. Everyone there we met were great, very kind and caring for my dog, and we felt safe leaving him there. Definitely will recommend this place to everyone! Thank you Diane and Rich Petty

Best. Place. Ever!
If my dog could write this review, he’d say “Best. Place. Ever!” Every time we pull into the parking lot, his tail wags like crazy. The staff are incredible, go above and beyond, the environment is clean and well run, and the dogs genuinely seem happy and engaged.

Elmwood is great
My pups were never happy going to PetSmart day camp. We have been to Camp Bow Wow in many states and they LOVE all of them. Elmwood is great. Just don't forget your dog collar, they will make you buy one :).
Margarita Robertson
Staff is very friendly and treat the pups great!
My pups love going to daycare to run around and play! I usually drop them off while I run errands or go to appointments, so when I pick them up, they are all tuckered out! It’s the best! Staff is very friendly and treat the pups great! Thank you.
Anne Marie Baione
Emily’s reaction to the staff says it all.
My rescue, Emily, is afraid of everyone. However, at Camp Bow Wow in Elmwood Park she literally pulls us in and doesn’t look back when they take her to the back play area. Emily’s reaction to the staff says it all.
John McMahon
Always a positive experience!
Always a positive experience! I can relax and enjoy my vacation knowing my Hunter is safe and well cared for. Thanks, Camp Bow Wow!
Mark Lillis
I am always confident my dog is treated very well.
I don’t use the service of Camp Bow Wow too often, maybe two or three times a year; however, whenever I do use their service, I am always confident that my dog is treated very well. The majority of the time, there were no incidences; however, if there is an issue, I always get a phone call informing me of the situation. I would suggest if you need to avoid your dog for a few days that you call Camp Bow Wow and speak to Roman or Susan. They will take very good care of your pet.
Gary Cornelius
I highly recommend them.
I feel at peace to leave my Tobi with them when I go away. Everyone is very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend them.

Provided my pet with both exhaustion and extreme happiness
The dog daycare facility Camp Bow Wow Elmwood Park operates as a dog summer camp, which provided my pet with both exhaustion and extreme happiness after spending time playing with other dogs. The staff members provided excellent service by sharing adorable photos while maintaining friendly interactions with me.

There is no other facility that I know of
Hello CBW family! Well, CBW in Elmwood Park, NJ has done it again! This is the third baby girl, Ellery, that I've taken to this facility! It is my Ellery's home away from home! Her first day was Tuesday 8/12 for their interviewing process. Ellery graduated! All staff members were very attentive to her needs, let me watch her in training, and I was overwhelmed with the love, care, camaraderie among staff, owners, myself, and my angel, Ellery! Without a doubt, there is no other facility that I know of that administers this kind of care to your beautiful baby. It is with extreme confidence that I recommend CBW in Elmwood Park as a facility for day camp and sleepovers! You can't lose! Sincerely, Victoria Carreller
Victoria Carrelle
Recommend highly
We dropped Tysen off at 12:30 on Saturday and picked him up at 4:30 on Sunday. They fed him and keep a good eye on him. You can watch them on cameras most of the time. They are always pleasant. Recommend highly.

The live streaming video feed is the best thing
Wonderful play time and care from Camp Bow Wow! I had to board my emotional support dog overnight and he had a blast playing with the other dogs. The live streaming video feed is the best thing in the world. I could see my dog having fun and getting love and pets from staff. The cameras are off overnight, but I'm sure he slept well. He's still tired today and resting contentedly. Thank you to all the staff who watched over my pup!
