Why Families Choose Our Dog Hotel
Families want a dog hotel that feels warm, welcoming, and safe for their four-legged family members. At our Camp near Marysville, we care for your dog’s emotional and physical well-being throughout their visit.
During the day, Campers enjoy open play in spacious indoor and outdoor yards with dogs of similar size and temperament. Our Camp Counselors watch body language, encourage healthy play, and provide breaks when needed. This social time helps dogs burn energy, build confidence, and come home relaxed.
Before joining group play, each new Camper completes a screening. We learn about your dog’s personality, energy level, and preferences so we can place them in a suitable play group and create a safer, more enjoyable experience.
When it’s time to rest, Campers head to their own cozy cabins. Each cabin provides a clean, comfortable space where your dog can sleep after a full day of fun. Many dogs settle quickly because they feel tired, content, and ready to curl up.
We also keep pricing simple with transparent, all-inclusive boarding and no surprise fees. You know what your dog’s stay includes, such as all-day play and plenty of attention, so you can plan your budget with confidence.
How Overnight Dog Boarding Works
We follow a consistent routine that helps Campers know what to expect. Our team will also answer questions about your dog’s specific care needs and schedule.
Preparing for Check-In
Before your dog’s first day or overnight stay, they must complete a free Interview Day. This visit shows us how your pup responds to our play yards and group environment. We also confirm required vaccinations and learn about your dog’s personality, comfort level, and care needs.
On check-in day, we greet you and your pup, review feeding and medication details, and confirm your current contact information. Your dog then joins their play group or settles into their individual space outside play hours. We keep the transition smooth so Campers can quickly feel at home.
A Day & Night at Camp
During the day, most boarding dogs join our regular play sessions. They romp with friends, enjoy our indoor and outdoor play yards, and rest as needed. We follow your feeding and medication directions, and medication administration and other special requests don’t carry an added charge.
After daytime play, each dog settles into an individual cozy Cabin with a cot and fleece blanket. This separate space gives your pup room to stretch out and rest before another day at Camp.
In the morning, boarding pups return to their regular schedule of meals, breaks, and supervised play based on your instructions and pickup time. We strive to send your dog home tired, happy, and ready to nap by your side.
To help your dog feel at home, you can bring:
- Familiar food from home, labeled with clear instructions
- Any medications with written dosing directions
- A small comfort item, such as a blanket or toy, if desired
- Emergency contact details and your vet’s information
Safety, Screening & Camper Comfort
Safety shapes every part of our dog boarding service. Our team carefully manages supervision, facility care, and play-group placement so dogs can have fun in a secure environment.
Screening & Supervised Play
Every new Camper completes a screening before joining group play. We learn about your dog’s history, comfort around other dogs, and special needs before carefully introducing them to a group based on size, temperament, and energy level.
Our Camp Counselors remain in the yards with the dogs. They’re extensively trained in dog behavior, pet CPR, and first aid, and they watch interactions, guide play, and provide breaks when dogs seem tired or overstimulated.
Health, Rest & Reassurance
We follow routine cleaning practices to keep cabins and play areas fresh, and we require up-to-date vaccinations. If we notice signs that a dog isn’t feeling their best, we contact you and follow your instructions. Our goal is to maintain a healthy environment for all Campers.
Some dogs feel nervous at first, especially when they’re new to boarding or older and comfortable with a familiar routine. We watch their body language and give shy pups extra encouragement, space, and rest when needed. We can also adjust a dog’s day to provide more quiet time.
Our daytime webcams let you look into the play yards and watch your pup have fun while you’re away. Many families find that a quick look at their happy Camper turns worries into smiles.
Is Doggie Boarding Right for Your Pup
Every dog has different social preferences, activity levels, and rest needs. Some pups thrive in our open-play environment, while others need more downtime during their stay.
Active, social dogs often enjoy boarding because they can meet new friends and play throughout the day. The added exercise and mental stimulation can reduce boredom and unwanted behavior at home. Younger dogs, in particular, may come home pleasantly tired after a few days at Camp.
More reserved or older pups can also do well when we tailor their experience thoughtfully. We watch for signs that a dog needs quiet time and adjust their balance of play and rest. Our cabins offer a peaceful place to recharge without pushing dogs beyond their comfort level.
Dogs with separation worries sometimes settle better with a predictable routine and attention from caring people. Our team talks to dogs, offers gentle affection when appropriate, and keeps their day structured. If you have concerns about your dog’s behavior or medical needs, reach out so we can discuss possible options.
Doggie boarding may be a helpful choice if you travel regularly, have long workdays, or want your pup to enjoy extra play while you’re busy. We’re here to help you decide what works best for your family and your dog.

All boarding dogs must:
- Pass the Camper Interview.
- Be spayed or neutered.
- Be current on DHPP, Rabies, and Bordetella vaccinations.
DHPP vaccination protects against Distemper, Hepatitis or Adenovirus, Parainfluenza, and Parvovirus.

Our Camp requirement still applies to every boarding dog.
Contact our team before your Interview Day if you have questions about your dog’s records or vaccination status.

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.
