Fantastic place for a small dog! This review is long overdue, as we've been been taking our Chihuahua to Canine Campus for about two years. We tried some of the other local kennels, but they don't hold a candle to this one! It's difficult to find a place that can provide great attention and care to a small dog when we live in such a large dog city. The staff is very friendly, and even though Papi visits just a few times a year, they always remember his name. He comes back happy, healthy, and smelling great (thanks to their shower). We're proud to call Canine Campus his "home away from home"!

Wonderful doggy daycare! Our dog has been a frequent flyer at Canine Campus and has made some wonderful friends both 2 legged and four legged. He is happy to go and play and spend the day and is throughly worn out when he comes home. All of the staff are warm and welcoming to our dog and "his people". I can check in on our dog via webcam and see that he is still enjoying his stay.

We have used both daycare and a boarding and are very pleased with the care. He is offered school lunch in case he missed breakfast or even had a shower upon return to us after boarding! Check it out you won't be disappointed.

Wonderful pet place!. As a first time boarder, I was very impressed with my overall experience with Canine Campus. The facility is kept very clean and the staff is wonderful. They were patient and understanding with all of my questions and calling while I was away on travel. I felt that everyone I came in contact with expressed genuine care for my pet. Thanks! I'll recommend this business to anyone needing pet services.

Best doggy daycare ever!!!!!. I am an independent rescuer and last October I rescued a beautiful American Bulldog. When I got Marley we quickly noticed that she hadn't been socialized very well with other dogs or people. I thought that taking her to doggy daycare would help her gain the skills that she needed to be a happy and healthy girl. I called several doggy daycare places and as soon as I told them her breed I was turned away. Canine Campus was the 4th place that I called and when I spoke to David he was super sweet and helpful. I took Marley in that morning for her evaluation and she has been going ever since. Joelle and her staff work with Marley and cater to her needs. Marley cannot wait to get through the door and is always happy to see the friendly faces at Canine Campus. The staff is always good at giving Marley her allergy medication, Kong stuffed with peanut butter and her eggs for breakfast. Her stuff is always packed up and ready to go when I pick her up and her blankets are washed. Canine Campus is like an extended family for Marley and I can tell that she loves going there. I highly recommend Canine Campus to anyone that is looking for a fun, safe and loving place for their pet to go.

Great place for dogs who love to play!. I moved to CO from out of state and needed a trustworthy place for my two dogs to play and to be while I'm at work. I checked out a few places, but Canine Campus seemed to be the best.

My dogs LOVE to go to school! They LOVE Canine Campus. I wasn't sure how they'd react since they were not used to being around other dogs. But they have done fine and the people here are very friendly...the dogs love them. Canine Campus has activities and fun games for the dogs and lots of interaction. I toured the boarding area and they have some of the nicest overnight set-ups I've seen. Since going to 'school' my dogs have learned to socialize more with other dogs. They come home tired and happy...my dog Ben always does his 'happy dance' when he comes out of school. I would recommend this facility!

My dogs would drive themselves there!!!!!. If my dogs could learn how to drive they would drive themselves to Canine Campus themselves!!! This place is GREAT! I travel a great deal for work and it is wonderful to know my dogs are being taken care of. They also go for doggie daycare - not matter why they ae there they LOVE it.

The hours are great too!! You can drop the dogs off as early as 6am during the week and they are even open on Sundays for pickup/drop off - this makes things so much easier when you are traveling.

Overall - LOVE THEM!!!

It's my dogs choice. Was disappointed in reading some of the recent reviews as my experience has been excellent. My dog is 'high energy' which means she doesn't much like staying in a 'cage' for more than a few minutes. We tried other places where they alternate between playtime and kennel time. She didn't like it. When she first went to Canine Campus she was hesitant, but after the first day she rushes to go in when we arrive. She likes the constant exercise. They have known her name from day one and she obviously likes them. Oh...and they have never brought me the wrong dog like another place we tried. We boarded her over Christmas and watched her on the cameras. So far, her choice is Canine Campus.

Our Dogs Love This Place!!!. We have been taking our dogs to Canine Campus for over a year. They absolutely love "going to school" to play and socialize with their friends. Both of our girls were rescues and came to us with issues that now thanks to the staff and students at Canine Campus are much better adjusted with other dogs and people. Joelle the owner,and all of her staff are remarkable in their ability to keep all of the dogs happy and well behaved. We always know that our girls are being well cared for and will continue to take them to Canine Campus as long as they will have us.

this business deserves more stars!!. unbelievable experience, what a breath of fresh air it was to find this doggie day care.

Extremely clean facility, excellent staff, I have a small dog with special needs and they were accomodating in every way.

I was fortunate to meet the owner when I picked up my little monster, and she was knowledgeable about everything from the food he ate, any spills or accidents that happened over night, and the many new friends he met and played with.

AWESOME AWESOME place, we definately will be back!

p.s.... he sure slept good that night

Not a happy place. My daughter took her one year old dog to Canine Campus over the Christmas holidays. Since my daughter was away from her computer, I watched the monitors for her (I was out of state or I would have taken her dog). I never saw any abuse of the dogs but I also never saw any interaction between the staff and the dogs. Anytime there was more than one person in the room, they stood around and talked without ever petting or playing with the dogs. The only other activity that I saw was the staff mopping the floors (which I know is necessary). It was rather sad to watch as you could tell that some of the dogs were following them around trying to interact and were being ignored. When my daughter was there, she said that one of the female workers was screaming at a couple of the dogs, telling them to "Get Down" (they were jumping up and trying to look out the windows of the room). I see that there are quite a few five star reviews on this site but they are dated prior to 2010. Has there been a change in staffing? They seem to have hired people who are not animal lovers. This is basically just a place to take your dogs where they are dumped in a room; definitely not my idea of a good daycare for dogs. My biggest concern is that my daughter's dog is now showing fear around people he doesn't know. He has never, ever, been like that before. He even enjoys going to the Vets. We don't know if something happened to him at Canine Campus to cause him to behave this way but we are not taking the chance and will not be going back. If anyone from Canine Campus should read this, please take care with who you are hiring. If you are going to advertise as a top notch daycare, there needs to be changes in your business model. I would feel better just having her dog boarded with the Vet.
