Camp Canine

We were about to leave our cat with camp feline for 10 nights. The first time we visited it was all sugar spice and everything nice. We were excited that our cat would have a good place to temporarily stay at. Then we visited the second time… We were told that cats and dogs are separated. And they are BUT… The owner’s/employees’ dogs are right out in the area where cats are AND THEY ARE CONSTANTLY BARKING whenever they see a cat. And mind you, the cat area is only separated by a door and glass. No music or tv to make the cats calm and the cats look like they are in constant fear because of the dogs. Also. you have to pay extra for PLAYTIME. I mean… Isn’t that supposed to be included? Logically pets need playtime and not just be ignored without human touch. THEY ARE PETS! We need to buy «attention»??? And we wanted to see what playtime consists of since it costs a whooping $ 24.95 for 30 minutes. So we called to see if we can observe the playtime. The rep was hesitating to answer and said that she needs to check with her supervisor like it was a big problem for us to do that. She said she was going to get back to us before the end of the day and its been 3 days no phone call. It was probably a scam for playtime to milk more money without actually playing with the pet. When we canceled our reservation the person that picked up the phone was so rude and hung up on us without A BEAT.
Double think if you are considering boarding your baby with camp feline. Your cat will be stressed from the sight and noise of the owner’s and employees’ dogs and who knows what kind of care they are actually giving. A small cage for $ 40 a night? Look for a much better place in upstate NY or New Jersey. Make sure to find a place where the owner and staffs actually care about YOUR dog NOT just theirs. We thought after new ownership the place is better but obviously based on our experience it is most definitely not.

Camp Canine is wonderful. I highly recommend it. My dog is 11 and they take such good care of her. They go above and beyond what I would expect from a dog boarder. My dog loves going there and loves her walks to Central Park.

Camp Canine is great! As new kitten owners we were a little uncomfortable leaving our little Spice with just anyone when we went away for Thanksgiving. But Tania and her whole crew at Camp Canine made it really easy for us. In addition to taking great care of Spice, we got pictures more than once a day of Spice having a great time at Camp Canine. That went a long way toward making us feel better about leaving her there. Additionally Spice smelled great after the grooming and bath that she got at Camp Canine

this place is the BOMB and Tonia & her team could not be more efficient, caring and protective of the well being of your furry creature
the renovation is almost complete and the new flooring has been well worth the wait
the facility is CLEAN, bright and pleasant to be in
my vizsla Mrs Peel HIGHLY recommends Camp Canine

Camp Canine is the BEST. My once shy Havanese, Milo, now pulls me downstairs to camp! The staff is friendly and welcoming and I always feel comfortable leaving Milo with them. They truly care about the dogs and are very attentive. We often run into staff members in the neighborhood and Milo gets so excited to see them… a true sign that he is well taken care of! Also, the convenience of their pick up and drop off service can’t be beat. For anyone looking for a safe, loving and caring environment, Camp Canine is your place!

Camp canine is amazing. After experiencing many different dog facilities, Camp canine goes far and above the others. They are true dog lovers and care for the dogs as if they are their own.
Camp canine is the only place I trust 100% with my dogs. I know they will be well taken care of and safe. They also have a great time playing with all the other dogs there. It really has become such a lovely community of «campers», where all the dogs become best friends.

Love love love camp canine, their staff, and facility. They go above and beyond for your beloved pet. While my 2 bonded babies were there, one got sick. They immediately contacted me and took them to the vet. They were so patient and provided them with treatment until I returned. The staff is so caring and compassionate. Very rescue dog friendly and they are equal opportunity for all breeds. We recommend them to everyone! Love them!

It used to be a better place. But now it couldn’t be worse. Whatever you do, do NOT allow Jose to be your pet’s groomer. He is rude. I arrived 15 minutes late, and he said to come another day. He also lied to the boss, and said that I was 30 minutes late. He has a bad attitude, and brings it to the workplace. A nasty person like that should not be touching your pet.

LOVE Camp Canine! Whether my Golden Retriever Bode is dropping in for a play day or staying the night, I know he’s having a great time. I’m very particular with Bode’s care and am 100% confident and comfortable with the entire staff at Camp Canine. When I travel, I can get updates and talk to the person (s) taking care of Bode at any given time. It’s so great to have one less thing to worry about during my hectic day. This past February (2015), I became very sick with the flu and was so worried that I couldn’t take Bode out for a walk. Camp Canine came by my apartment, picked Bode up and cared for him until I was able to get back on my feet. I think I cried a little. It was such a relief to know he was in such caring hands when I wasn’t able to give him the attention he needed. Also, any day Bode spends at Camp Canine is a great day for Bode. When I drop him off, he doesn’t even look back at me. He’s so excited to see his dog and human friends. When I pick him up at night, he’s completely exhausted and snores. Believe me, it’s not easy to wear Bode out. He’s a rambunctious, 1 year old, Golden Retriever so hearing him snore at night is music to my ears. I love my dog and I want him in the best hands possible. That’s why I take Bode to Camp Canine. Oh… did I mention the photo’s they post on Facebook every day of all the dogs playing!!! It cracks me up that Bode is famous in NY!!! XOXO Camp Canine, keep up the great services!!!

perfect cut and service

Tried to schedule a grooming for my pup. There was no answer on the phone, several attempts during the day. Made an appt for wash (in person) and got lucky because someone who is a regular was looking to move her appt around. They penciled us in at 830pm. I had to cancel due to work and did so at 10am the next day (Day of the wash) I knew the place was slammed, so didn’t bother rescheduling. The staff on the phone was so rude and told me I should have left a CC because there is a cancelation fee. Give me a break — you didn’t charge the girl who moved her appt in front of me.
Bottom Line — There are 10 better staffed, kinder, dog groomers in this area…
1^st impression is the one that lasts the longest. Stay away.
POPULARITY IS NOT CAUSE FOR RUDENESS. Every single pet groomer on the UWS is «Busy» I guess they just act professionally when dealing with clients vs your shop.

I haven’t worked with camp canine as a client, but I work with an animal rescue that they have partnered with them. They have been fostering dogs for us, helping with adoptions and offering huge discounts to our adopters. Overall, awesome to work with. I’m all for small businesses who are genuinely interested in helping rescues!

Camp Canine is a friendly, clean, and reliable boarding facility on the UWS. I boarded my 13 year old chihuahua here this past week while I was traveling, and he was as happy as ever when I picked him up. I’m sure I will use their services again, and I’ll recommend this business to all the pet owners I know here in NYC. Thank you to everyone at Camp Canine — you are a lovely group of people! :)

We found CC when I approached the owner an especially cute Wheaten Terrier with a perfect haircut at our neighborhood dog park about the location of their groomer. Of course, they had gone to Camp Canine and since then we have been talking our pup to Camp Canine (for about 3 years now).
They do everything for him — daycare, boarding and grooming. He is a large breed (85 lb goldendoodle) so he can be a handful at times but we have never had a problem as the staff is friendly to both dogs and humans, welcoming, accommodating and always there to help. He practically drags me there and when we pick him up, he is really happy and blissfully exhausted.

Camp Canine is the absolute best. Our high energy pup goes every day and comes home a happy, yet tired pup. The staff goes above and beyond each and everyday. They remember every dog and dog owner so when you walk in, they are already calling back for your dog to come out. They always have smiles on their faces and you can tell they truly love what they are doing. I don’t know if all, but a few of the employees are vet technicians, giving you the comfort, that if anything happens, your dog will be in good hands.
The facilities are clean. We have been to other doggy daycares and our dog has come home smelling like pee and really dirty. This has never been the case at Camp Canine.
Camp Canine also has created a sense of community amongst the pups and parents. They post a new Facebook album daily, email videos of your dog playing and have holiday events — think cards from your dog for mother’s and father’s day, Super Bowl Sunday play sessions, Halloween contests and more!
We couldn’t be happier with Camp Canine and highly recommend them to anyone thinking about day care for their pup.

I cannot say enough positive things about Camp Canine! Our dog drags us to daycamp every morning because she’s that excited to be there. The staff is extremely caring, thoughtful and attentive. I trust them with my fur child 100%. The facility is always clean, has plenty of toys and the staff play with the dogs all day long which my doggie loves! They even play ball with her 1 – 1 which we greatly appreciate. Thank you for taking such amazing care of our Aslyn girl!

We LOVE Camp Canine — and my dog loves it. The management and «counselors» are kind and upbeat and clearly love their charges and know their peculiarities. A particular bonus is the parties and art & crafts (I got a Mother’s Day card from my dog, complete with paw print). And you get to see a splendid picture of your dog on FB every time he’s there. I used to take him to a several-​starred outfit a little farther uptown, but before long, my dog seemed afraid of the owner and didn’t want to go.
Camp Canine is in a NYC «Best» class by itself.

The facility is very clean. It smells very nice. The staff is ALWAYS friendly and down to earth. They are a great bunch of people to look after these dogs and my dogs (and im sure all the others) are always happy there.

I have been taking my dog to Camp Canine for daycare ever since I discovered my adopted doberman had separation anxiety (2 – 4 days a week for the past year). I am always nervous to leave my dog with anyone, but Camp Canine has been excellent.
Their hours are great — 7:00 AM-8:30 PM is wonderful because I work a variable schedule & often need to leave her early in the AM or come late in evening to pick her up. The staff is super nice & there is always at least one human supervising the dogs when I drop in. I often run into them on the sidewalk when they are out walking the dogs, so I know they are getting outside during the day. The prices are very reasonable for daycare (we buy the 30-​visit packages to save a little money), and they have a groomer on site who is super nice. She has cut my dog’s nails and charges $ 15, which is good for Manhattan and very convenient. You can bring your own food or they will feed — this is good because I have forgotten to bring dinner a few times.
Finally, they are clean. It doesn’t smell bad inside, and my dog always comes home smelling a little like disinfectant. If you need a place for your dog to hang out while you are at work, I definitely recommend CC.
P. S. I work in animal welfare, and appreciate the fact that CC fosters homeless rescue dogs. It makes it feel a little better giving them my business when they give a little back to dogs in need.

I love this place!
We were recommended to Camp Canine in the fall when we rescued our Westie. I can tell you I was given a checklist of what to look for, and our Maestro loved going. He was happy to see me, but literally RAN in when he saw where we were headed. We left him there on 2 separate occasions prior to going away for the weekend. He was happy and well looked after, and came home a very tired guy.
The staff are true dog lovers, and wish it were closer so that Maestro could spend all his days there.
