Boarding

Home boarding, not a kennel

Paws Awhile Canine Camp offers home boarding for your pet's stay with us. A climate controlled environment provides a much more relaxing visit.

The home environment reduces stress levels and provides a more familiar overnight space for your dog. After mind stimulating fun activities in our Canine Camp Playground, and walks in the serene countryside, snacks and meals are provided. Outdoor supervised exercise and walks give each Canine Camp guest plenty of "out of bunk" time. Camp bunks are designed to be private, safe, and comfortable for a good night's sleep.

Health and safety

What your dog needs before camp

At Paws Awhile Canine Camp, the health and safety of your pet is our foremost priority. All pets must be in good health and current on all vaccinations and preventatives.

  • Vaccination requirements for dogs: DHLPP, Bordetella, and Rabies
  • Bordetella (kennel cough) preventative must be given 7 days prior to visiting camp
  • Flea and tick preventative is also required
  • Heartworm preventative is also required
  • Please email vaccination records to pawsawhilek9camp@gmail.com
  • Please provide your dog's current food in a sealable container, to maintain consistency in diet

Each pet is evaluated on arrival to be sure they are not showing signs of illness. Temperament testing is also assessed, to ensure the safety of our employees and other guests.

We make every effort to protect your pet's health by disinfecting the Canine Camp Playground, toys, and bunks daily. All stainless steel bowls are disinfected and cleaned daily.

Oral and liquid medications can be given for free. We do not administer injectable medications.
