Rates at boarding kennels can be hard to compare. Most have a base rate that might include a couple brief exercise periods where dogs are put out in a small yard for awhile. Anything beyond that like real walks are billed seperately at two or three dollars each. Not at Camp Woof. We could never walk past a dog and say, “sorry, you don’t get a walk because your owner didn’t pay extra for it.” €¯ EVERY dog at Camp Woof gets at least three extensive exercise/play periods in our large fenced compounds that have large balls and other toys and even agility equipment. But that’s not all. EVERY dog also gets TWO long walks, one of which is a full half mile, every day. Plus, there are no extra charges for feeding special diets or giving medications. Consider these important differences when you compare what your dog’s experience will really be like at various kennels. We think you’ll conclude that Camp Woof is not just the best, it’s the best value!
Unlike hotels, we charge by the day rather than by the night. Most boarding kennels charge for every day that the dog is present for any part of the day. Camp Woof is more flexible in order to meet your needs. We realize that often you return home late and it is easier to pick up the dog the next morning. If a dog is scheduled for pickup and picked up by 9am, there is no charge for that day. If schedule and pickup is after 9 but before 12, there will be a half-day charge. After noon a full day charge applies.
Some clients want to drop off a dog late in the day. This is up to you but we find that when dogs are here earlier in the day they have more time to get adjusted plus they have had walks and play times before bedtime, and that seems to benefit most dogs. However, you may drop off a dog as late as 6pm. If you drop off between 5pm and 6pm with appointment, there will be no charge for that day.
Some clients wonder why we don’t charge by the night. The answer is because we believe the value at Camp Woof lies in the time and exercise and play and individual attention we give your dog, all of which happen during the day. If a dog comes Friday morning and leaves Sunday evening, we invest three days of time and effort into his care, even though he sleeps here only two nights.
If you have any questions about our charges or policy please feel free to call.
Current Rates
The per day rate depends on the total length of the stay:
3 days or less - $25 per day
4 days and over - $22 per day
These rates are for the first dog. The second (and additional) dogs from the same family that are being dropped off and picked up at the same time receive a $3 per day discount from the above rates. Also, the second dog in the same run receives a $3 per day discount. For example, two dogs in one run for a week would be $22 per day for the first dog with the second dog receiving two discounts or $16 per day, total for the two $38 per day.
1-3 days: 1 dog $25 per day
2 dogs/same run $44 per day
4 or more days: 1 dog $22 per day
2 dogs/same run $38 per day
If a dog is scheduled for pickup at 9am or before, and is picked up at that time, there is no charge for that day. Before noon is a half day.
Cancellation Policy - Camp Woof is small and our business plan is based upon being full at most times. A late cancellation means we are unlikely to fill that run with another dog and so it is a loss. This applies to late shortening of a reservation as well as cancellation. If a cancellation is made 21 days before the drop-off date, any deposit made will be returned and there will be no charges. If a cancellation or change is made within 21 days and we are able to fill those days from a waiting list, there will be no charge. Otherwise the charges are based on the days booked, not the days used.
