Camp Bow Wow in other cities:
Every visit our pup has made does not disappoint. Shes a medium size girl, plays with big and small, and has the energy of a whippet. The staff is great, and is fantastically attentive, and on point; they keyed on one time during the summer when our girl got too excited with all the fun that they pulled her to a quiet room to relax and cool off, and gave us a call to let us know what is going on. Having the helicopter parent cams are a nice thing too, but gets us distracted at work watching all the fun. We have yet to board, but wont think twice about choosing this CBW location to do so.
I am so THANKFUL for Camp Bow Wow. The staff is always incredibly professional and kind. My dogs love coming to camp and staying over night when I am away for work! Last week I had a family emergency and I was unable to pick up my dogs on time - they were so accommodating and helped me out when I was in a pinch. I would never take my kids any where else!!
I checked on my dog multiple times throughout the day via the live cameras, each time he looked like he was enjoying himself! He enjoyed the bone shaped pool and got a lot of pets by the employees. He was exhausted at the end of the day after his exciting day at Camp! I feel safe leaving him there for the day or overnight if needed. The staff is very easy to communicate with and seems very caring.
My dog loves playing with the other dogs. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable and there is plenty of supervision while the dogs play. All day play means all day play. My dog comes home happy and tired. Also you can watch through their web cams so you can see what your dog is doing and who they’re playing with which is fun.
We love that everyone knows our pups name when we walk in, even if its been a while! Austin has always been super nice and helpful with any questions or concerns too! Max (our dog) loves it so much, we cant even say the word CAMP without him getting crazy excited and nosing his leash.
We really like the camper cams! Our dog is very afraid of people. The employees at Camp Bow Wow have been patient and worked with him. Its the only place hell go. We use it for daycare and overnight boarding for our family vacation. Camp Bow Wow has helped us so much!
The Bow Wow people are always helpful and friendly. We recently had out 1 year old pup stay with Camp Bow Wow Tonawanda for 8 days. We were able to watch him play on the webcams throughout the week. As always they took good care of our pup, administering his food on schedule and his medicine. When we picked up our pup, he was groomed, clean, fresh and ready to come home! We will continue to use Bow Wow for our boarding and daycare needs!
My dog loves coming to camp!! The employees are very friendly and remember my dog by name when he comes in. I love that there are cameras so you can check in on your fur baby during the day. The prices are fair and I feel that my dog is safe when I bring him here! He always comes home happy and tired.
We are new to Camp Bow Wow and were so impressed with how we were treated on our first couple days. The personal touches (like our dogs name on the welcome board and her first day report card) make a difference and the staff is friendly and reliable. I appreciate knowing my dog is always being supervised.
I am a fairly recent customer to Camp Bow Wow, but I have been thoroughly impressed by the facilities and the staff. The counselors are always professional, very upbeat, and genuinely happy to see your dog. The facilities are spacious and there are outdoor play areas which our last dog daycare facility didnt have. There are always plenty of counselors there to monitor your dogs. The selection process they use to make sure your dog is a good fit with the others is also very impressive. Your dog is in great hands with Camp Bow Wow, and I would highly recommend them. Despite being a chain, they are Buffalos original dog daycare and the amount of experience they have in caring for your dog shows. My dog, Sammy, is more excited to pull up to Camp Bow Wow than anywhere else, even the dog park! We both love Camp Bow Wow so far and all the staff there.
We’ve boarded our dog here for vacation multiple times and often drop him off for the day so he isn’t left home alone for too long. We’ve never had a problem. The staff is so friendly to our dog and some even remember him! They take excellent care of him every time and are easy to communicate with. As someone whose dog is basically like another child it’s important to me that he’s is taken care of and I always feel safe leaving him with them. Keep up the great work!
Counselors are very nice. Love how there is always somebody watching the dogs at all times. The facility is very clean. The ease of scheduling boarding is great, and the value for peace of mind is wonderful. You don’t have to worry that your dog is stuck in a kennel all day, and you can tune in and see that they are having fun is priceless. I love how the counselors know my dogs name when we walk in the door. That level of attention to detail blows me away. I always recommend this facility to anyone I know looking for daycare or boarding for their dogs.
The area is so warm and inviting. The staff is incredibly friendly and informative. Any questions or concerns that I had they were able to address. They also provided a packet regarding my dogs interaction with other dogs and any other resources that I may want/need to refer to. Cant wait to go back!
The workers are always so nice and they are great with my dogs. My dogs always come back happy. I, unfortunately, had to use a different kennel not long ago, as camp bow wow was booked up, and my dogs seemed traumatized and just not themselves for days. This has never happened at camp bow wow!!! I will never use another kennel again as long as I can help it!! I would definitely recommend anyone who has a dog to trust them to the staff at the camp, both for the day and for the week! Your dog will have a wonderful vacation as you vacation.
Camp Bow Wow Tonawanda is the best! I feel totally comfortable leaving my dog with the staff, who seem to love her as if she was their own! The camera live streams are an added bonus, so I can check in throughout the day to see how my dog is doing. I couldn’t recommend them enough to anyone looking for doggy daycare services!
Our Weimaraners had a great time at this facility. It was nice to be able to have the ability to view their room online. The staff that we interacted with were great.At peak times though, the number of dogs to caretaker ratio is concerning. Our dogs were fine, but one could see how that could easily be an issue.
The staff is very friendly and it is clear they get to know the dogs.I have a foster dog who attends day care at Camp Bow Wow. He has some behavioral issues in the home and so it is really important that he stay well socialized with dogs and other people.Camp allows him to do this. I am so very appreciative of what you all do to help fosters with their transition to their forever homes. Thank you so much!
We have never used a boarding facility or day care with any of our previous dogs. We have been taking our now one year old dog to Camp Bow Wow for about 9 months. She stayed overnight as a puppy when we went out of town and was happy and healthy when we picked her up. All of the staff is very friendly and we really feel they care about all of the dogs. We love that we can drop Zoe off for an afternoon or all day whenever she needs a bit more excercise and play time. Highly recommend Camp Bow Wow
Camp Bow Wow was well worth the price, with excellent staff and a nice facility. The dogs have ample opportunity to interact with other dogs, or even stay by themselves if theyre a bit shy. The staff takes great care to make sure that each dog is happy and that all the dogs behave well. The interview process ensures that dogs who are not properly trained to interact with other dogs are weeded out. You can be sure that your dog will be safe, have plenty of room to exercise and play, and will be cared for as well as at home. The cameras that allow you to check on your dog remotely are an added bonus and give you additional peace of mind while youre away. Camp Bow Wow is the one place I can trust to care for my dog when I am away; I highly recommend them.
My dogs absolutely love Camp Bow Wow and all their workers. And their workers really loves dogs. My dogs are like my children they never leave my side this is the first time Ive trusted them anywhere. And now Im going away for a week and Im trusting Camp Bow Wow with them. So that should tell you how great they are
My dog is always happy and smiling whenever we come to leave her. She practically leads us in! I particularly like the web cam so I can visit with her from wherever we are. Our last time, however, the cam was down for several days and that was disappointing. Otherwise we have only very good experiences. You can tell the handlers really do enjoy caring for the dogs. Thank you for loving and caring for our dog.
We have been to a few Camp Bow Wow locations in our travels and this one has been our favorite so far! The staff was incredibly friendly, helpful, and enthusiastic. They also made a point of getting to know our pup and sending home a little card with a few highlights of his stay, which for me was an indicator of how interactive the staff really is with each dog. We have friends now living in the area and we will be back again!
I trust the Camp Bow Wow in Tonawanda. I had my puppy try another daycare closer to where we live and is a little bit cheaper, but I didnt have the same professional experience as Camp Bow Wow. I believe they do the best job at separating dogs based on energy levels and I like that there is always a staff member in with the dogs. The cams you can watch online are a plus as well!
We took our dogs to Camp Bow Wow for the first time last week. The staff there was tremendous and our dogs had a blast! They didnt move from the time we picked them up until the next day! The convenience of being able to watch them live on the website was also a nice relief to know they were enjoying themselves as well. We will definitely be using Camp Bow Wow again in the near future!
My english bulldog Blanche stayed here for 6 nights during my familys recent vacation to Disneyworld and Camp Bow Wow far exceeded my expectations. My dog has never stayed here before but I was able to quickly determine that she would be well cared for. Amazing staff and if you download their app you can view you dog in real time via their multiple cameras they have set up throughout the areas where the dogs are. Highly recommend!!!!!
We recently lost one of our two Pomeranians so we started taking our 6 yr old Milo to Camp Bow Wow for socialization. I love that they have half or full day options. I like the way the dogs are grouped by temperament and I am really hoping after a few more visits Milo will start to play with the other dogs. It is very helpful to be able to watch the Camp Cams to keep an eye on Milo. The price is very reasonable. He comes home exhausted even after a half day there. The staff are always very friendly. Im not a huge fan of spraying the dogs in the face with water due to their behavior or if they are trying to get out when the gate gets opened so I am really hoping Milo behaves and does not become fearful of water.
Great place to bring your dog. My fur baby Molly loves her day at camp. The staff is super friendly and great Molly by name every time. Sending her there has really opened her up socially with both other dogs and people as well. I recommend Camp Bow Wow to all my friends with dogs
Excellent services!!! My dog is always well taken care of and as a result, loves going there. They take care in knowing my dog is elderly and give him time outs and a quiet rom to sleep (when available). The only two things I would change. The price is kind of steep. And for that price, there should be someone there all day on Sundays so the dogs can play. Besides that, its perfect. Thanks for taking care of my pups!
Staff are always friendly and professional. They seem to really enjoy working and caring for the dogs. Sonny starts barking a half mile down the road, cant wait to get out of the car so he can run through the doors to see his friends. I always get good feedback from the staff regarding Sonny. He is a happy boy at Camp Bow Wow, comes home exhausted and sleeps for two days. We feel very comfortable leaving him in your care, makes our trips pleasant and worry free. I have recommended your camp to other dog owners. Camp Bow Wow definitely deserves a 10+++. Thank you. Maggie Greco
Its nice to know that I can always count on Camp Bow Wow to be there when we are going out of town. The Tonawanda facility is convenient, clean and the employees always know my dogs name no matter how long it has been since his last visit. I know he has both indoor and outdoor play areas and will be well taken care of. Thank you to the staff at Camp Bow Wow.
Dante, my German Shepherd LOVES going to camp. He knows just by how I get ready in the morning if its his day to go and jumps around. When we get there he drags me to the door and never looks back. Every one there is great (Dante loves Jason) and greeted him by name the second time he went, even a few weeks after his interview. Weve been going every week for almost a year and recommend it to everyone.
The staff is so friendly! I was nervous to bring my puppy for the first time bc she can get nervous around other dogs.The staff made me feel at ease. Love that you can check in on the webcams. Received a certificate with a picture of my pup on the first day. Super cute! Chelsea was great to talk to! I will definitely be bringing my Cali back to play with her new friends!
I take my dog here on days when I know we wont have time to exercise. Wonderful facility. The staff is very friendly and loves the dogs. I am able to download the app and watch my dog run around throughout the day. When I pick her up from camp she immediately falls asleep in the back of the car and does the same when she finds the couch. I couldnt be happier with Camp Bow Wow.
What a professional, clean and fun place to take your dogs!! The staff is wonderful and its refreshing to know that there is a place where I can take my 2 fur babies and let them play hard all day and not have to worry about them. The web cams are the best part, I can check in on my dogs whenever I want! Will be happy to recommend to anyone looking for a place for doggie day care or over night!!
Honestly, this is the best doggie daycare I have EVER taken my dog too, and he has been to a lot during our travels! The staff here is amazing; they exemplify what customer service should be like! I am excited that I will be back in town over the next few months because I will be able to bring my dog back here. When I called to ask about coming in for daycare, the girl on the phone immediately remembered my dog (although we had not been back to this location in almost 9 months), and sounded elated that he would be coming back. We had tried other daycares in the Buffalo area previously, but this is hands down the best. The customer service and facility are second to none, and I hope the owners realize what an amazing team they have! Bismarck and I cannot wait to see everyone again!
Both of my dogs love this place! The staff is very professional and attentive. My toy poodle has always been very nervous around other dogs but the staff knows exactly how to handle it and he has improved a lot! I have never seen the dogs unsupervised, except for the 30 seconds it takes a staff member to clean up after a dog. Other reviewers really confused me because you have to understand that they are not babies, they are dogs, they will playfully bite and scratch each other and the staff is very clear about kennel cough prevention. Its like sending your kid to school after getting the flu shot but he gets the flu anyways. There is nothing the staff can do beyond what they are already doing. If you have realistic expectations, this place will exceed them.
Great place to take your four legged baby while youre at work all day! The staff are trained in first aid procedures as well as loving your dog as much as you do, and its a great way to exercise and socialize fido while youre working hard for the money! Trust these folks with your dog, theyll take good care of him.
Great dog daycare center. They really get to know your pet and offer a firendly atmosphere. They offer training courses and overnight boarding as well as day care. Facility has cameras that you can watch via their app and see your pet at play. Great place to take your pooch!
Camp Bow Wow is the ONLY place we trust leaving our dog Sasha while we are out of town. Sasha gets LOTS of exercise running in circles. All of the counselors are fantastic and know her by her AKC name (The Silver Snuggler)! The facility is always clean. The prices are fair. The cameras are an added bonus!
Ginger, my German Shepard has stayed at Camp Bow Wow many times. This latest time was for 10 full days and nights, the longest she has ever stayed. Everytime I pick her up she sleeps for a couple of days from being so active for so long. She loves it there and we will always got there. Thank you.
I have a rescue dog named Alabama who is generally a shy dog but just saying the phrase Camp Bow Wow around her makes her go crazy with excitement. Ive never had anything but positive interactions with the staff and the facility is clean, safe, and secure, which is very important for my wife and I.
Too many dogs together . 40 dogs in a room with nothing to do but walk in a circle . My dog was way overstimulated and stressed out. I asked us anything could be done to alleviate this situation and they kept my dog out of the large room for a portion of the day , the people are nice but I wasn’t happy leaving my dog there
I couldnt be happier! We take our Piper here 3 days a week, and while it may get a little expensive, she gets the exercise and attention she needs during the day! Theres always someone (usually multiple people) watching the dogs, so I feel satisfied knowing Piper is safe!
Thank you so much for being able to take Charlie while we explored the Falls while on vacation. It was a greater bonus when we received a call that you had an opening for the night. Our boys were able to see the illumination of the Falls for the first time. The boys loved logging on to watch Charlie play with his newly found pug friends up until bed time.
I took my puppy to camp bow wow only a few times, he seemed to enjoy playing there, however i dont think they take him to the potty as much as he needs to go since hes a smaller dog and often would be in the small dog room. on my last visit with them i requested him to be washed right before i pick him up, and i was excited to see him all clean, imagine my disappointment when i picked him up! he was not washed AT ALL. they charged me for the bath, and i thought well ok maybe he got dirty playing outside while waiting for me, but when i picked him up he did not smell fresh at all but smelled like a dirty dog who got washed a few days ago and still had the smell of my shampoo that i use on him. he came out dirtier than when i brought him in and i am almost positive that they did not give him a bath at all. i ended up paying for a bath and when i came home ended giving him another bath. why charge me for a service that they did not perform just makes me mad. i dont think i trust to bring him in anymore because if they lie about this what else are they being dishonest about??
Very Professional, clean with everything thought of that would be needed in such a facility. The people are extremely well-equipped and very nice to both the pet and the owner. I have already recommended you to many people at UB and I have emailed about nine people of family and friends and told him that while I am away in New York all day Saturday they are to watch Charlotte and hopefully with the computer versus the iPhone take some snapshots of her. I missed her being on top of the mountain. Dont forget Ill be dropping her off before 7 PM this Friday, you will have her all day Saturday, and I am to pick her up my choice the morning hours or the split going into evening hours on Sunday. Thank you with your help with her.
My husband and I have been sending our 3.5 year old mutt, Draco, to Camp Bow Wow in Tonawanda for several years now. I love so many things about Camp Bow Wow - the cleanliness of the facility, the fact that they have cameras so I can watch my dog play while Im at work, the attentiveness of the staff... but the thing that I think always hits me the most is, even when Draco hasnt been to camp in months, the staff still remembers him and calls him by name when he attends for the day. As soon as we pull in the parking lot, Draco knows where he is and I cant get him out of the car quick enough. We have no children, so we truly feel like Draco is our baby and we are very particular over who cares for him when we are not around. Aside from my parents, I feel most comfortable leaving him in the capable hands of the Camp Bow Wow Tonawanda counselors. They are an amazing group of people who make Draco (and his humans!) feel welcome. I would highly recommend their services to everyone!
I was under the impression that the workers employed here enjoyed their job, and was a big part of why I trusted them to watch my dog. As I was walking into the building, I heard a woman yell at the dogs that were barking to shut up.I have more visits paid for and rather take a financial loss than take my baby back here.
I have used Camp Bow Wow for boarding twice, first for a week long trip and just recently for a two day trip. After the week long trip, my dog was noticeably thinner, but I just attributed that to the fact that she was away from home and her eating habits do change. However, on the second trip last week, I came back to see that her fleece coat that is used for outside activity was torn half way through. The reason given to me by the attendant was that some dogs tend to be nervous/stressed and do that. The problem was two fold - the instruction I gave them was that she was only to wear the fleece for outdoor activity, but they admitted to me that she had it on for the entire time. Secondly, they knew she was trying to tear through the garment YET THEY LEFT IT ON HER! I spoke to the Manager on duty today, and as expected she tried to deflect the blame on me - we didnt have anything in writing about this, maybe another dog tore it, etc. No compensation for the torn garment, and additionally she had a bath in the AM but you would not know that based on the quality. I will never bring my dog here again and would not recommend you do either.
I like the personal (can you use that word about canines??!!!) attention you give my boy! I know he is in the hands of dog lovers who treat him special. This time around Snickers was still in the rehab stage of ortho surgery and I was worried it would be too much for him, but he came home strong and happy. I love you guys! Thank you!

2022-06-17Very responsive staff when I reached out about an interview.Front desk and camp counselors were very friendly and accommodating, and I emailed halfway through the day to check on the dog and got an immediate response with an update on how she was doing.I asked about having her nails trimmed and the girl at the front desk recommended we not do that on interview day - it was definitely the best recommendation but I appreciated that she wasnt willing to sell us a service if it wouldnt be best for the dog.Very detailed information provided, answered all of my questions both at drop off and at pickup. Were looking forward to sending our dog to camp one day a week going forward, and possibly doing boarding in the future.

2022-01-27This is our first experience with a dog daycare. We are so impressed by the kind staff, cleanliness and ease. We love watching our dog on camera and he comes home so happy and in need of rest from so much fun activity with his little fur ball friends. We love Camp Bow Wow!

2022-01-21My furbabies LOVE it here! They are always exhausted after a day at camp. The staff are so personal and friendly and amazing with your pups. I love that they have cameras so you can see your pups enjoying themselves. I am so glad I decided to drop in one day for info. They do a thorough review and ensure your pet is comfortable in the yard before you leave them. I also love how they do special events for the benefit of rescues etc on holidays like the kissing booth and pics with santa.

2022-02-23Every morning we take our pup he is greeted with a smile and they always say Hi Dougie!!!. He loves everyone there. He has a great time and is so tired once he arrives home. There is always someone at the desk in the morning to help us. Doug loves the pup-cups so we add those on a lot when we board him.

2022-07-05Absolutely amazing staff. My dog loves it there. Always have full trust that theyll take great care of my chewy.

2022-05-14There were way too many dogs there. They take on too many clients, over crowd the dogs and create a chaotic atmosphere. Doesn’t feel like a safe place for my dog to be.
Review №9
2022-07-05It would be a tragedy to leave loved ones here, this so called “business is nothing more than a side job for the owners; nanette is not fit to care for any creatures as her record shows and other reviewers have pointed out. Buying franchises (and essential oil schemes) as a solution for ones financial woes, does not make for a qualified pet caregiver. Please take your pets to a legitimate pet sitter for their sake and your piece of mind. The owners are not qualified for this position and are in it for all the wrong reasons.
