He loves Camp Bow Wow
Our boy Jax has been to Camp Bow Wow numerous times. He gets so excited when he sees that’s where we’re going. He loves Camp Bow Wow. So glad they came to our neighborhood. A special shoutout to Val who works there. She’s great.

Ellie Seemed to Enjoy Her First Day
Ellie seemed to enjoy her first day at Camp Bow Wow. She was all "smiles" when I picked her up. She was tired that night, so I know she played a lot. Drop off and pick up went smoothly. I know she'll be going again soon.

I cannot say enough great things
Our fur baby likes coming to camp. The camp counselors are kind and gentle with our fur baby. She was rescued three years ago, and she was very fearful of women. The camp counselors have shown our baby that women are good and kind. I cannot say enough great things about Camp Bow Wow and the staff.

We just love Camp Bow Wow
We found Camp Bow Wow from a referral and could not be happier. My GSD/Malinois has so much fun at daycare each time he goes, and we love all of the extras that CBW has to offer (i.e. enrichments, art/craft days, bubble days, etc.); there is always something going on! The staff truly loves these dogs like their own. The safety of Camp Bow Wow is top notch, especially for a high-energy/active breed like mine. With the setup they have, I never have to worry that my boy will be in danger when playing in the outdoor area. We just love CBW and highly recommend them!!

We’re obsessed with Camp Bow Wow
We’re obsessed with Camp Bow Wow. My puppy, Sadie, is a little shy at first, but she warmed up so quickly because of the amazing counselors! They truly treat the pups like their own. Also, they have some amazing perks. Firstly, they have a camera that you’re able to check at any time. Next, they frequently have fun enrichment activities going on. This week Sadie played “ice hockey.” She loved it! If you’re a helicopter mom like me, I highly recommend Camp Bow Wow! I can’t thank the counselors enough for loving on my sweet girl when I’m working or traveling.

Camp Bow Wow in Joliet has been one of the best things we've ever done
I just want to say Camp Bow Wow in Joliet seriously has been one of the best things we've ever done. 1. We started taking our dog Marty here since he was a puppy, and let me tell you, puppy energy is HARD to get out. But when we brought him home after a day of daycare, he was WIPED out. It feels really good knowing that he can spend a day getting his energy out, socializing, and playing all day long, rather than sitting at home bored. 2. The way they conducted the interview/acceptance process really impressed me. We were a little nervous going into it, but they seriously were SO on top of everything when it came to introducing our dog to this new environment. Instantly built trust within them in that moment. 3. They TRULY treat your dog like their own. My dog Marty can definitely be a ball of energy and a bit crazy sometimes. I was worried he'd be disliked in the beginning because he can be a lot to handle LOL. But the staff here makes me feel like he is so loved and well taken care of, it feels so comforting to leave him here with people who treat him so well. 4. The staff here is SO kind, understanding, accommodating, and well trained. I cannot express how amazing everyone here has been. So friendly, listens to what your dog's needs/care are, and genuinely just an amazing group of people to trust your dog with! I could honestly go on and on about why we love Camp Bow Wow, I have nothing but positive things to say about you guys. Thank you all so much for taking such good care of my boy, you all truly are the best! If anyone reading this is considering trying them out, please do it!! They will 100% exceed your expectations. <3

I can't give Camp Bow Wow enough stars! We were just in a situation, and I needed help with our dog. They went above and beyond. It was truly a life saver! They treat your animal like one of their own. We will definitely keep going back!

She was well taken care of.
Boarded my dog Annabelle, and she had a great time. She stayed in a suite, and I was able to view her. I viewed her in the doggie park, and she had fun. She was well taken care of.

The staff is attentive, kind and enthusiastic.
Our Husky, Kiera, loves her day care stays at Camp BW. The staff is attentive, kind, and enthusiastic. The facility is safe and clean. Being able to watch her during the day via CCTV is a great bonus.
William Carrier
Highly recommend!
The true test of knowing if your pup enjoys a place is to watch the level of excitement they have upon arrival. My dog jumps out of the car and pulls me to the door. He gets inside and can't wait to get to the back and see his friends. The staff is so great - they all know my pup by name. The owners are pretty fantastic as well. Highly recommend!
Renee Darmstadt
