FAQs

What is the Earliest or Latest I Can Drop-off My Dog?

You can drop off at 7am all the way up to shortly before closing during Kamp Kanine’s regular business hours of Monday – Friday 7am-6pm.
Do I or can I attend or observe the evaluation process?

While we understand people want to observe their dog during temperament testing. The presence or scent of an owner can influence the test results, and for that reason the temperament test is done completely separate from the owner to get a true and accurate test that we have confidence in moving forward.
Once my dog(s) pass the temperament evaluation do I need to make an appointment for doggy daycare?

After passing the temperament evaluation a client can drop off and pick up their dog(s) at their convenience. There is no process to check in, make an appointment or contact Kamp Kanine to check on availability.
Do I or can I attend or observe the evaluation process?

Unfortunately, the owner can’t be present during the evaluation. Dogs need to be evaluated without the influence of the owner being present or nearby where your dog may smell you. This gives Kamp Kanine and your dog(s) a better opportunity to have a less stressful and superior environment to have a successful temperament test.
How do the doggy daycare package days work?

Daycare package days can be used at your convenience. For example, a 5 day package might be used 1 day the first week after purchased and 2 days on the second week followed by 0 days the third week followed by 2 days the fourth week to use the 5 days in your 5 day package.
How will my dog be placed in one of the six yards?

Dogs are placed in each of the 6 yards based on their size, age, energy and temperament. Each day is different as Kamp Kanine allows Client’s to drop off and pick up dogs at their convenience making each day a unique group of well socialized dogs to place in the yards.
I adopted a rescue dog that may exhibit anxiety, separation anxiety and/or leash aggressiveness and I'm concerned how they will do in a doggy daycare environment with other dogs.

This is a common question. Denelle, our dog trainer has done over 10,000 active or passive temperament evaluations. Hali the Kamp Manager and myself have done over 1,000 active evaluations each. Kamp Kanine has had over 225,000 dogs visit for daycare and believe we are able to offer a positive, accurate and safe temperament test.
What is your ratio of dogs to staff question

This question assumes all dogs; yard attendants and environments are the same. Currently we have eight employees and average 75 dogs a day or about 9 dogs per staff member.

Breaking this question down a bit. Dogs Kamp Kanine has had over 225,000 dogs attend for doggy daycare since opening our doors in 2009. Three of our current Kamp Kanine employees have done over 1,000 dog evaluations each.

Most of our daycare dogs are very well socialized, meaning they have attended daycare at Kamp Kanine 50 to 1,500+ times. Resulting in well socialized groups for your beloved dog(s) to play and make friends in.

Kamp Kanine has six yards to place dogs based on size, age, energy and temperament. No other daycare business in our local area can offer that kind of flexibility or specific group placing for doggy daycare.

We believe that our unique highly experienced staff, dog experience, yard and dog group flexibility plus the very well socialized nature of Kamp Kanine’s dog yards is a much better indicator of a safe and positive doggy daycare outcome than “what is your ratio for dogs to staff” answer is.
