Getting Started: The Camper Interview

Every new dog begins with a Camper interview, a supervised temperament evaluation that introduces your pup to Camp gradually and safely. During the interview, we match your dog with other Campers by size and personality so the initial pack introduction feels comfortable rather than overwhelming.

You can watch the process through our live webcams during business hours. If your dog is joining us for boarding, we’ll also give them time in a cabin during the interview visit so the space feels familiar before their first overnight stay.

Dog Daycare at Camp Bow Wow Virginia Beach

What Does a Typical Day Look Like?
Campers rotate between indoor and outdoor play yards, grouped by size and personality. Our certified Camp Counselors monitor the group throughout the day, encouraging healthy play and stepping in when needed.

What’s Included in the Daycare Price?
Our pricing is all-inclusive with no hidden fees. Medication administration is covered at no extra charge, so you won’t be surprised by add-on costs at pickup.

Can I Check in on My Dog While I’m at Work?
Yes. Our live webcams are accessible during business hours from any computer or through the Camp app on your phone. You can see exactly what your dog is up to without waiting until pickup to find out.

Dog Boarding: Overnight Stays at Camp

Dog boarding at Camp Bow Wow Virginia Beach is designed to feel like a home away from home, not a kennel stay.

What’s Included in the Overnight Boarding Rate?
Every boarding Camper gets a private cabin with a cozy cot, a fleece blanket, and a nightly Campfire Treat™. Day Camp is included in every boarding stay at no extra charge, so your dog spends daylight hours playing with friends rather than waiting in their cabin. Medication administration is included in the boarding rate as well.

How Do I Keep an Eye on My Dog During Their Stay?
Webcam access is available during business hours when pups are at play. Check in through the Camp app or from any computer, and use the app to request boarding reservations as well.

Dog Grooming Services

Dog grooming is available at our Virginia Beach location and pairs naturally with a daycare or boarding visit. Drop your dog off for a day of play and pick them up clean and fresh in a single trip.

Available dog grooming services and appointment times can vary, so we recommend calling us at (757) 720-7666 or visiting our dog grooming page for current details before booking.

Dog Enrichment & Pawsitive Start Jr.

Beyond standard play, we offer add-on experiences that give your dog extra attention and mental engagement during their visit.

What Are Dog Enrichment Packages?
Enrichment packages give your dog a more personalized experience during their visit. Activities like cuddle sessions and sniff and seek engage your dog’s natural instincts and provide stimulation beyond regular play. When an enrichment session takes place, we send photos so you can see your pup in action.

What Is Pawsitive Start Jr.?
Pawsitive Start Jr. is our puppy daycare and learning program designed for younger Campers who are just discovering CampLife. The program focuses on socialization, enrichment, and personalized attention during those early months when positive experiences can make a lasting difference. Ask our team whether your puppy is eligible when you schedule their Camper interview.

The Camp App & Your Account

The Camp app is free to download on iOS from the App Store and on Android from Google Play. Once your account is set up, you can customize your Camper’s profile, request reservations, and access live webcam feeds from your phone. Webcams are also accessible from any computer during business hours. For help creating an account, updating your profile, or resolving a technical issue, the Camp Bow Wow Account support resource has answers to common questions, or you can call our Virginia Beach team directly.
