Dog Day Care in Newark, DE

Seize the Play^® at Camp!

Is your dog getting the exercise and socialization they need? Treat your dog to a fun and active day at Camp and bring home a happy and pooped pooch! Camp Bow Wow^® doggy daycare services are designed to improve your pup’s quality of life in a safe, fun, and nurturing environment. We provide both dog and human interaction that benefits mental stimulation and socialization. Our spacious play areas allow for maximum fun and the chance for your four-legged family member to burn off some of that pent-up energy.

When you choose our dog day care, your pup will enjoy a structured day that balances high-energy play with regular rest breaks. We group dogs by size, temperament, and play style so they can wrestle, chase, and explore with compatible friends while our Camp Counselors keep a close eye on body language and behavior. This thoughtful approach helps even shy or first-time Campers feel comfortable and confident more quickly, which makes each visit more enjoyable for both you and your dog.

Because our location serves busy pet parents in Newark and surrounding communities, we also make drop-off and pick-up as simple as possible. Many families stop by on their way to and from work, knowing their dogs are having a full day of engagement instead of waiting at home. Over time, you may notice that regular visits to our dog day care leave your pup calmer in the evenings, more relaxed around other dogs, and excited to come back through our doors.

A Day At Our Dog Day Care In Newark

Pet parents often want to know what their dog’s day will actually look like at Camp. From morning check-in to afternoon pick-up, we follow a consistent rhythm so dogs can settle in quickly and enjoy themselves. After a quick health and behavior check at the door, Campers join carefully matched play groups where they can run, chase toys, and make friends under our team’s watchful supervision. Throughout the day, we rotate between indoor and outdoor yards based on the weather in Newark so dogs stay comfortable while still getting plenty of exercise and fresh air.

We build rest time into the schedule to help pups avoid getting overtired or overstimulated. Some dogs enjoy a cozy nap in a cabin, while others simply relax on raised beds away from the busiest play areas. Fresh water is always available, and we follow your feeding instructions for snacks or lunch, including any special diets you provide. Before heading home, dogs have a final chance to stretch their legs so they are more relaxed for the ride and the evening with your family. This predictable daily routine helps dogs feel safe and makes each visit to Camp something they look forward to.

Dog Day Care Requirements And Camper Interview

Before any dog joins our play yards, we complete a thorough Camper Interview to make sure Camp is a good fit. During this visit, we learn about your dog’s history, energy level, and preferences, then slowly introduce them to a small group of friendly Campers. Our team watches how your pup greets new dogs, responds to play invites, and handles the excitement of a new environment. This careful process helps us build play groups where dogs can enjoy themselves safely and gives you confidence in the community your dog will be joining.

We also review vaccination records, spay or neuter status, and any medical or behavioral notes you share so we can tailor care to your dog’s needs. Because many of our Campers come from Newark and neighboring towns, we see a wide mix of breeds and personalities, and the Camper Interview helps us place each dog where they will thrive. Once your pup has passed, they are cleared to attend day care and boarding, and we will keep you updated if we ever see changes that might affect their play style or comfort at Camp.

Care You Can Count On In Newark

A happy, healthy, and safe dog is our top priority at Camp Bow Wow. You can be confident knowing your dog will be well cared for while they run, jump, and romp around in our play yards.

From the moment your pup arrives for dog day care, our team follows consistent check-in and handling routines so they feel secure and comfortable. We pay attention to each dog’s energy level, play style, and body language throughout the day, adjusting play groups or suggesting rest time when needed. This hands-on approach helps prevent scuffles, supports good manners in the yard, and allows us to share helpful feedback with you about how your dog is doing socially.

Many pet parents in the Newark area rely on us several days a week, so we view ourselves as long-term partners in their dog’s well-being. If we notice changes in mobility, appetite, or behavior, we let you know so you can decide whether to check in with your veterinarian. By combining consistent routines, careful observation, and a lot of affection, we create an environment where dogs can thrive, not just pass the time while you are away.

Some of the safety standards we adhere to include:

Certified Camp Counselors^® who are extensively trained in dog behavior, pet CPR, and pet first aid
Assurance that all our Campers have passed the Camper Interview, are spayed or neutered, and are current on Rabies, Distemper, Bordetella, and Canine Influenza. Learn about our Bordetella policy
Live webcams that allow you to check in on your pup on your computer or mobile device

Dog Daycare FAQs

Have questions? Camp Bow Wow Delaware North is here to help!

You can usually purchase a Camp Bow Wow daycare package directly at your local Camp, and many locations also allow you to buy or reload packages online or through the Camp Bow Wow app. Once you’re set up as a customer and your pup has completed their evaluation, you can choose the package size you want and complete payment through your preferred method. Your package balance will then be tracked automatically each time your pup checks in for daycare.
Daycare package days are generally valid year-round, but some Camps may have blackout dates, limited hours, or special policies during major holidays and peak seasons. Certain holidays may be reserved primarily for boarding Campers, or may carry different rates. Your local Camp will let you know how packages apply on holidays so you can plan ahead for busy times.
Most Camp Bow Wow locations recommend or require a reservation to guarantee a daycare spot, even if you have a package. Your package covers the cost of the day, but a reservation helps ensure we can safely accommodate your pup in the appropriate play group. You can typically reserve through your local Camp, by phone, online, or via the Camp Bow Wow app.
Most Camp Bow Wow daycare packages have an expiration period, which varies by location, to help ensure pups use their play days consistently. The expiration window is typically generous, giving you plenty of time to schedule visits that work for your routine. Your local Camp will let you know the exact expiration policy for each package before you purchase.
Yes, a lot of our locations offer packages. Camp Bow Wow dog daycare packages are pre-paid bundles of daycare days that make it easier and more affordable for your pup to play regularly. Instead of paying one day at a time, you purchase a set number of days—like a 5-day, 10-day, or 20-day package—at a discounted rate. Packages help your pup get consistent socialization and exercise while giving you predictable pricing and extra savings.
