Why Choose Our Dog Hotel Near Sun City
When you picture a dog hotel near Sun City, you might imagine rows of traditional stays and a few short walks. Our Camp looks very different. We focus on open play in indoor and outdoor yards where dogs can romp, socialize, and relax under the watchful eyes of our Camp Counselors.
We believe dogs do best with a healthy mix of exercise, social time, and rest. That is why we build each boarding stay around all-day play and structured downtime, not limited to add-on play sessions. Dogs get to be dogs, running, chasing, and making new friends, then recharging in a cozy Cabin when they are ready to rest.
Safety shapes everything we do. Before joining group play, every new Camper goes through our screening process to help us understand their play style and to confirm they are a good fit for the play yards. Our team then keeps a close eye on interactions, encouraging healthy play and stepping in when a pup needs a break.
Pricing is straightforward, which is a relief for pet parents who have been surprised by hidden fees elsewhere. Our boarding rate includes what dogs truly need, such as all-day play, attention, and medication administration, so you are not deciding at check-in whether your pup gets extra exercise.
Because we are right here in Avondale, we are a convenient option for families in nearby neighborhoods. Many pet parents from Sun City also choose our Camp for doggie boarding when they want a trusted spot their dog looks forward to visiting again and again.
What Your Dog’s Stay Includes
It is easier to relax on your trip when you can picture exactly what your dog is doing. From the moment you drop them off, we work to keep their routine predictable and fun. After check-in, your pup joins appropriate playgroups where they can explore our indoor play spaces or head outside to enjoy the fresh air.
Daytime Care
Our indoor play areas are climate-controlled, which matters during warm Arizona days. Outside, dogs can enjoy secure yards with room to run and places to lounge. Throughout the day, we build in rest periods so pups can recharge and don’t become overstimulated. Meals are served based on the schedule you share with us, and we follow your instructions for food and portions.
Overnight Comfort
In the evening, after plenty of play and attention, dogs settle into their individual Cabins. These Cabins include a cot, fleece blanket, and bedtime treat to help your dog stretch out and sleep comfortably. A familiar blanket or toy from home can help many dogs relax, and we encourage you to bring a few comforts that fit our guidelines.
Check In During Playtime
While you are away, you can check in on your Camper during playtime. Our live web cameras let you peek into the play yards anytime so you can see your dog having fun with friends. You get to watch the experience you are paying for, which builds confidence that you chose the right boarding option.
Boarding Inclusions
Every boarding stay typically includes:
- All-day supervised play in indoor and outdoor yards
- An individual Cabin with a cot and fleece blanket for overnight rest
- A bedtime treat
- Scheduled meals following your feeding instructions
- Medication administration
- Structured rest breaks to keep pups calm and content
- Lots of interaction with our Camp Counselors
- Live web cameras so you can check in on your dog anytime
Whether your pup is here for a single night or a longer boarding stay, we work to keep their days full of play and their nights relaxed. Many dogs return home pleasantly tired and ready to nap, which tells us they made the most of their time at Camp.
Safety, Comfort & Camper Screening
We know that safety is the first thing many pet parents think about when they consider overnight dog boarding. That is why we start every new Camper relationship with a screening process. During this visit, we get to know your dog’s personality, watch how they interact with other dogs, and confirm general health requirements.
Once your dog has joined our Camp family, we place them in playgroups with dogs that have similar sizes or play styles. Matching energy levels and temperaments helps keep playtime fun and reduces the risk of misunderstandings between dogs. Our Camp Counselors stay in the play yards with the dogs, guiding interactions, offering breaks, and giving plenty of affection.
Cleanliness and comfort support safety, too. Our team follows regular cleaning routines so that Cabins, play areas, and common spaces stay fresh and welcoming. We pay attention to details like fresh water, comfortable bedding, and safe play equipment so you can feel good about where your dog is staying.
During the night, the environment remains calm, which is especially important for first-time Campers. After a full day of activity, most pups settle nicely into their Cabins. If you are feeling nervous about boarding for the first time, our team can walk you through what to expect so you feel more at ease.

Camp Bow Wow requires all boarding dogs to be up to date on their DHPP vaccine to keep them healthy and able to play safely with other dogs. It’s recommended that the Leptospirosis vaccine also be included annually, as it’s more common, can be deadly to dogs, and can spread to humans.
The DHPP vaccine protects against four serious and highly contagious diseases: Distemper, Hepatitis (Adenovirus), Parainfluenza, and Parvovirus. These illnesses can affect a dog’s respiratory, digestive, and nervous systems, and can spread quickly between dogs, making vaccination important.
Puppies start the DHPP series at 6–8 weeks old, with two boosters given at 3-week intervals, followed by a third booster a year later. Adult dogs receive booster shots as recommended by their veterinarian, with the Distemper and Parvovirus portion typically given every 1–3 years.
In addition to the DHPP vaccine, the Rabies and Bordetella vaccines are also required for all boarding dogs at all our locations. For more information on our vaccine requirements for dog boarding, contact your local Camp Bow Wow.
