Camp Bow Wow Meridian

I had a last minute change in plans and the staff was EXTREMELY understanding and managed to let my fur-​child come to boarding two nights early. I would definitely recommend Camp Bow Wow to anyone looking for a good place for their fur-​children to stay while they’re out of town. Being able to check in on my dog via the cameras helps ease my borderline crazy anxiety about leaving my fur-​child without me while on the other side of the country. The staff genuinely cares for the dogs and it shows in how my neurotic 95 pound dog that thinks he’s a lap dog reacts to their building. :)

Love, love, love this place! We have a 9 month old black lab who is full of energy! She was so happy & tired when we picked her up from her free ½ day after her interview. We then boarded her for 2 weeks & she came home happy & healthy. I took her again today so I could go to the dr & do some Christmas shopping. Just picked up 1 very tired happy dog. She gets her exercise & I can get my chores down without having to crate her at home.

This place feels like the humane society, at least to my husband and me. He didn’t even want to leave them there for the free interview day.
We have one large and one small dog that they split up, making each of them more anxious. Watching them on the monitors when we got back I could tell how stressed they were. We found a different place in Boise that has a much calmer atmosphere and didn’t split out pups up!

We had a big event planned for our daughter and did not want to leave our Siberian Husky alone for the whole day and night. We looked into several boarding places and decided to reach out to Camp Bow Wow. The staff is very friendly and being that this was our first time boarding, we had a lot of questions. Our husky had to interview. We prepped me in front of a panel and suggested that he write his resume in Calibri font 11. Unfortunately, some interviewees still use Wingdings and Comic Sans Serif. We took him to his interview and left him there for three hours. We did tour the facilities and it is very clean and organized. The staff is very attentive and professional. We picked up our husky and he just didn’t seem right. Not sure what happened as we we watched on the cam several times during the 3 hours but did not see anything. His trademark curled tail was not up and seemed sensitive. All of this passed within a couple of days and when the Camp called, I did express my concerns and worries. That faithful day for our event came and we dropped him off early Saturday morning. He was excited to go and seemed to have a great time playing with 7 other Huskys throughout the day. We were able to check on him with the app. On Sunday afternoon, we picked him up and he was fine. There was no issues with the tail as it was curled and he was is regular playful self. We trust Camp Bow Wow Meridian with our Husky and have recommended them for other friends and neighbors. If you have any questions, concerns about your pet, please feel free to discuss it with them as we found them to be very open and honest.

Awesome care for my beloved Golden retriever who needs regular meds for siezures. They have trained the staff how to deal with dogs having siezures. They call me with any issues. Most importantly, my dog loves it!

This review is from copper the dog. I love this place! I’m able to play with all the other dogs and sniff… Well you know. The staff is very freindly! I had to go today to make sure I get alone with all the other dogs! I passed with flying colors. Now a can be dropped off any time for the day or over night! I’m a happy camper!

I was initially very impressed with Camp Bow Wow; the staff seemed friendly, the place was clean and they really seemed to care for the dogs. All things you want to see in a boarding facility. We paid extra for a suite so that we could see our dog on the webcam, so our dog stayed in the suite. Two days into our four day trip I noticed that I wasn’t seeing our dog in the suite and I called. They said well your dog tore up our suite and messed up the Sheetrock so we had to move her. I asked if my dog was ok several times and they said yes and just kept telling me how bad she tore into the wall. I asked why they didn’t have the area protected with vinyl or something and they said they did but only four feet up. Well considering my dog is an 80lb. Golden she’s much taller than that. I called back the next day and again they told me that my dog messed up their wall, I said I’m sorry that happened but in reality they should’ve had the room better set up for all sizes of dogs and I again asked if my dog was ok they said yes. My husband went to pick up our dog and brought her home. To my shock she had skin and hair missing around her mouth with a puncture in her lip and her paw nail was all messed up at the bed and had dry blood all around it (even though I paid extra for a bath). Needless to say I was very upset. I called and spoke to the owner and she said that they didn’t notice anything and then said well her injuries weren’t life threatening but if I wanted to come in she could show me where she tore up the Sheetrock. I was livid at this point… First of all, the room should be a safe environment for all sizes of dogs, meaning protection over the Sheetrock much higher that 4 feet. My dog doesn’t tear up stuff at home but she was scared and alone. Second of all if they would have called me when this happened and told me her mouth was raw, missing hair with some scratches and a puncture along with her nail bed is messed up but we’ve cleaned her up an moved her to a safer environment it would’ve helped me understand a bit better. With her injuries she had to of had blood on her when they came in. My perception is they were more worries about the Sheetrock than my dog. Not to mention they constantly squirt the dogs with water spray bottles whenever they get close to the walls or gates when they are in open play. Not the place for us and I would have given this a zero if that was an option. Luckily it’s been healing well with the help of Doterra essential oils diluted heavily with coconut oil.
