The staff is friendly and you can tell they care
It was Snowball's first time at Camp recently, so I loved being able to see him on the camera feed. He was a wallflower for the first half of the day, but he started warming up to being there by the afternoon. He even got a few cute photos taken. 💕📸🐰💙 The staff is friendly and you can tell they care about the pups in their care. 💕🐶💙🐾

Excellent Care and Communication
We have used Camp Bow Wow in Springfield, Missouri, for several years. Their team members have always provided excellent care and communication, plus convenient hours for pick up and drop off. We greatly appreciate the quality care our fur baby receives. ❤️
Dana Wente
My pup is so excited to get to Camp
I have two pups. Sammy Boy goes to Camp every Tuesday, and he is always so excited, he can hardly wait to get into the doggie care building. I am handicapped, so all of the staff are so helpful. Each Tuesday morning they unload Sammy from my car and literally have to run with him to get into the building, and then they also reload him in my car to go home. Annie Lynne visits on occasion for play, nail trim, etc. She too loves it but is not very active. We love all of the staff at Camp Bow Wow East. Again, my pup is so excited to get to Camp.

We Couldn’t Be Happier
We’ve had a great experience with Camp Bow Wow! One of our favorite features is the photos and updates provided by the staff—it’s so reassuring to see how much fun our dogs are having. The live video feed is also a great touch and allows us to check in on the play areas anytime.
The staff is truly amazing—attentive, caring, and clearly passionate about the dogs. There’s plenty of human interaction, which makes such a difference, and our pups come home happy, well-exercised, and content. It’s so reassuring to know they’re not just being watched, but genuinely cared for.
We couldn’t be happier with the level of care and attention our dogs receive here and highly recommend this daycare to any pet parent looking for a safe, engaging, and loving environment.
We have not done an overnight stay yet, but we plan to very soon and will update this review after that!

We Absolutely Love This Doggie Daycare
We absolutely love this doggie daycare! The staff are friendly, caring, and clearly love what they do. Our dog is always excited to go and comes home happy and tired (in the best way). The facility is clean, well-organized, and feels very safe. We really appreciate the updates and attention they give. It’s such a relief knowing our pup is in great hands—highly recommend!

Camp Bow Wow Surpassed Our Expectations
My husband and I are thrilled to have discovered Camp Bow Wow on the East Side, which has surpassed our expectations in every way, inspiring confidence in their exceptional services and knowledgeable, friendly staff. Our youngest fur baby will be going with her siblings after her spaying; we eagerly anticipate witnessing all of them continue in their growth and socialization. Impressed by their personalized approach to addressing each of our dogs' unique needs, I look forward to exploring their training programs for our pup, in due time. Receiving our fur babies' artwork was a heartwarming treat; my husband and I are confident that their nurturing environment will empower our dogs to flourish. As dog parents, we acknowledge that we've been overly cautious with our dogs, but I'm optimistic that this camp will foster their independence and social skills, unlocking their full potential. My husband and I have already recommended the camp to friends, reflecting our outstanding experience and enthusiasm for the profoundly positive impact it will have on our furry family members. They returned home to us without any fear, having had a truly wonderful time.

Camp Bow Wow Has Surpassed Our Expectations
My husband and I are thrilled to have discovered Camp Bow Wow on the East Side, which has surpassed our expectations in every way, inspiring confidence in their exceptional services and knowledgeable, friendly staff. Maggie, too, will be going with her Yorkie siblings after her spaying; we eagerly anticipate witnessing each of them continue in their growth and socialization. Impressed by their personalized approach to addressing each of our dogs' unique needs, I look forward to exploring their training programs for Maggie, our beagle pup, in due time. Receiving our Yorkie's first artwork was a heartwarming treat; my husband and I are confident that their nurturing environment will empower our dogs to flourish. As dog parents, we acknowledge that we've been overly cautious with our dogs, but I'm optimistic that this camp will foster their independence and social skills, unlocking their full potential. My husband and I have already recommended the camp to friends, reflecting our outstanding experience and enthusiasm for the profoundly positive impact it will have on our furry family members. Gracie and Tazz returned home to us without any fear, having had a truly wonderful time.

Our dog had a wonderful time
We were visiting Springfield, MO for the day. We dropped our dog there; communication was wonderful. The team was great. The follow-up and the kindness. And most importantly, our dog had a wonderful time. We appreciate your Camp Bow Wow! Liam says hello and thank you for the wonderful card in the mail!

The staff take great care of him and the other campers.
My wife and I highly enjoy Camp Bow Wow. Our son Apollo gets so excited when we turn into the parking lot, and the staff take great care of him and the other campers. We enjoy the enrichments too, the pictures, and the amount of fun Apollo has. We can tell it helps the campers and staff connect more.
Christian Hoyer
Highly recommend Camp Bow Wow east
We have taken our dog to Camp Bow Wow when we need daycare or overnight boarding for about 2 years. We love getting the pictures from his special experiences and appreciate being able to check in on the dog cam. We've always been able to get a reservation when we needed one. We highly recommend Camp Bow Wow east.
Sheryl Rowden
We love Camp Bow Wow East!
We love Camp Bow Wow East! We have three dogs, one being a senior with medication needs. The only thing they haven’t done the last few times that I miss is the check-in photos. I loved receiving pics of my dogs while I was away from them.

Sad to leave
Nice to have a good, clean, safe place to leave the fur kid when we go out of town and can't take him along. Everyone working there seems to care for the dogs like they were their own and the fur kid seemed to have a good time. He almost seemed sad to leave when we picked him up. Definitely will bring him back to Camp in the future.
Peggy Brown
