About Camp Bow Wow Lexington East

Premium Dog Care in Lexington, KY for Happy, Healthy Pups

At Camp Bow Wow Lexington East, every dog who walks through our doors has a name, and so does every pet parent who drops them off. We’re part of the Camp Bow Wow family, a brand that has been building Happy Campers since 2000 and now spans more than 220 locations across North America. Our Lexington, Kentucky location brings that national experience home, serving pet parents throughout Fayette County with dog care services built around one daily goal: a happy, safe, tail-wagging good time.

Camp isn’t a kennel. It’s a home-away-from-home where dogs run, romp, make new friends, and get the TLC they deserve. Our CampLife philosophy puts every Camper’s emotional and physical well-being at the center of everything we do.

Dog Daycare & Dog Boarding in Lexington

Dog Daycare and Dog Boarding are the heart of what we do at Camp, and both are built around the same open-play philosophy: dogs should be active, social, and engaged, not sitting in a crate waiting for the day to end.

Dog Daycare

Dog Daycare gives your pup a full day of supervised open play in our indoor and outdoor yards. Climate-controlled indoor play areas keep Campers comfortable year-round, so Lexington’s humid summers and cold winters don’t cut the fun short. It’s a great option for pet parents heading to work or running errands, and your dog can go home active, socialized, and thoroughly worn out.

Dog Boarding

Overnight guests get the full daycare experience throughout the day, not just a room for the night. Each boarding Camper stays in their own private Cabin with a cozy cot and a fleece blanket, and every Cabin comes stocked with a Campfire Treats™ nightcap at no extra charge. Extended Dog Boarding is available for stays of 10 nights or more, giving pet parents peace of mind during longer trips.

Dog Grooming & Dog Enrichment

We want Camp to be the one stop your dog needs. Dog Grooming is available right here at Camp Bow Wow Lexington East, so pet parents can pair a groom with a daycare or boarding visit instead of making a separate trip across town. Dog Enrichment adds brain-stimulating activities and sensory experiences to a Camper’s day. Both services can be added to any daycare or boarding reservation, making it easy to give your dog more from every visit.

What Makes CampLife Different

A few things set the experience at Camp Bow Wow Lexington East apart from a standard dog care facility in Lexington.

  • Live Camper Cams℠: Check in on your dog from any computer or mobile device throughout the day. Real-time visibility means you can see for yourself that your pup is having fun.
  • The Camp App: Customize your Camper’s profile, set care preferences, request reservations, and access webcams all in one place.
  • Play Group Matching: Dogs are placed in groups based on size, temperament, and energy level so every interaction is compatible and comfortable.
  • Military Discount: We offer a military discount for qualifying pet parents as a thank-you for their service.
  • Bow Wow Buddies Foundation: Camp Bow Wow supports the Bow Wow Buddies Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to providing urgent medical care funds to sick and injured dogs in need.

Safety & Screening at Camp

Before any dog joins the Camp Bow Wow family, they complete a Camper Interview. This evaluation looks at behavior, temperament, and social compatibility to assess whether each pup in our play yards is a good fit for the group. It protects your dog as much as it protects every other Camper at Camp.

Vaccination & Enrollment Requirements

All Campers must be current on DHPP, Rabies, and Bordetella before attending, and those seven months of age or older must be spayed or neutered. These requirements aren’t just policy, they’re how we work to keep every dog in our care healthy.

Certified Camp Counselors® & Play Management

Our Certified Camp Counselors® are extensively trained in dog behavior, pet CPR, and pet first aid. During play, they use gentle redirection to manage rough interactions and schedule mandatory rest periods to keep energy levels in a healthy range. Play group assignments are revisited as dogs age or as their play style evolves.

Facility Hygiene

Every Cabin, fence, water bowl, and toy is sanitized daily with pet-safe, hospital-grade cleaning agents. A clean Camp supports a safe Camp, and we don’t cut corners on either.

All-Inclusive Pricing with No Hidden Fees

The rate we quote is the rate you pay. Daycare is included at no extra charge for boarding dogs, medication administration during a stay doesn’t cost extra, and every Camper’s Cabin comes stocked with a cot, fleece blanket, and nightly Campfire Treat™ as part of the package. No surprise line items at checkout.

Our Re-Fur a Friend referral program gives you a free day of Camp when a friend you refer becomes a paying Camper. It’s our way of saying thank you for spreading the word.
