At Hot Diggity Doggie Camp, we are committed to providing a safe and fun social environment for your dog while you are at work or away from home. To enroll, please take the time to fill out an information form, located below, and bring it to us along with proof of vaccinations. Then, schedule a time for your pet to visit. There is no charge for the first visit.
Our camp is a place for young dogs to socialize and have fun. Some older dogs really enjoy it too, but it is not for everybody. If your dog doesn't like being around other dogs, or is elderly, he/she may be better off at home with a pet sitter, or at the vet that they are used to going to. Remember, you want to do what is best for your pet.
At the camp, dogs play together, play with us, and sometimes just mill around. There are separate play areas for small/large dogs, or for dogs with different play styles. Dogs sleep in crates at night in the master bedroom or the playroom. They may be crated for a nap in the middle of the day. We will provide food, or
you may bring your own. If you bring your own food, please put it in a baggie with your dog's name on it and directions on how much food and how often to feed them.Hot Diggity Doggie Camp is a place your dog can run around with other dogs, chase balls, jump in the baby pools, and hang out in the playroom and watch a little tv. There is a small dog play area in the back. Dogs are crated at night, and sometimes for noontime naps. The owner lives on the premises. Please have your dog on a leash coming and going.
