Day Camp

For dogs of all ages.

Day Camp dogs engage in group play and individualized training sessions. All dogs come home happy, exercised, socialized, and with reinforced skills.

Please note that our Day Camp service is currently FULL. Please get on the waitlist by clicking the "Get Started" button above.

Service includes…

  • Full day care for dogs of all ages with a licensed, bonded, and insured rewards-based dog trainer
  • Basic obedience, barrier training, recall, socialization (other dogs, skateboards, neighborhood noises, people, hula hoops, power tools, etc), body handling (nail trims, brushing, ear cleaning, etc), confidence building, park-it, crate training, retrieve, body awareness, focus and engagement, loose-leash walking, proofing current skills, tricks, impulse control, potty training, and house manners
  • Structured group play with a small and specifically selected socialization group
  • Cool-down time with food puzzles and regulated nap times
  • A daily report on your pup's training goals and progress
  • Daily photos of your dog's adventures
  • Meals and/or meds if desired
  • Ridiculous amounts of fun

Day Camp dogs must be...

  • screened and approved by Dog Adventures Northwest through a free 30-Minute Evaluation
  • non-excessive barkers
  • up-to-date on vaccines and parasite-protected
  • content to be confined by crate, tether, exercise pen, or gate with limited barrier frustration or separation anxiety
  • content to share toys and low-value treats with other dogs (high-value treats will be given separately)
  • unable to jump a four-foot chain-link fence
  • dog-social (your pup doesn’t need to be the life of the party, but we do need to know that your dog and the other dogs in our care will feel safe at all times; we unfortunately cannot offer Day Camp for dog-reactive pups)
  • wearing a harness and identification tag (required) and microchipped (highly recommended)

Note: Day Camp is one of our only services that does not include pick-up and drop-off, due to the nature of the program. Pup parents must drop pups off and pick them up at the trainer's home.

Rate: Day Camp is $175 for one dog, with no age restrictions. Send two dogs to Day Camp and the second pup is 50% off. Schedule at least one Day Camp visit per week, and get 10% off ($157.50/day).

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We are so incredibly glad that we found Jessica Vellella and Dog Adventures Northwest! As new puppy parents, we were anxious to leave our doodle Wally for our first vacation away but after speaking with our trainer, we were confident that Wally would be in the best hands. Jessica met with us ahead of time at her home to get to know Wally and answer any questions we had. We booked a test run weekend ahead of our 10 day vacation to help Wally adjust to her home and time away. During the test run, Jessica sent us so many photos and texts of our sweet smiling pup that we could actually enjoy our weekend in Bend. We also scheduled a few adventure day camp sessions with Jessica between the test run and the vacation to make sure Wally felt extra comfortable - this was absolutely worth it and Wally adores Jessica. Over the 10 day vacation, Jessica was an incredible communicator, sent us detailed notes around training and how he was adjusting. We felt so good that Wally was enjoying his adventures, learning tons and having a vacation of his own! We highly recommend Jessica and seriously cannot say enough positive things about our experience with Dog Adventures Northwest!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our first experience with Dog Adventures NW was puppy training day camp and overnights, which was amazing! Now, we have a full-grown, high-energy pup who loves adventures! We joined Bobby's outdoor adventure group and it has been amazing. Our dog is over-the-moon excited when Bobby comes to pick her up each week. He takes the best action photos of her running, playing, swimming, and resting with friends. Bobby has been very communicative and lovely to work with. I fully trust him with Juniper. We have a tired and happy pup come home each week! Dog Adventures NW for the win!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We have a very smart Australian Cattle Dog that needed smarter humans. Dog Adventures Northwest entered into our lives, and suddenly we have a dog that gets complimented on his manners at the park or in a dog-friendly shop. Dog Adventures Northwest helps bridge the gap between us and our animal, and they are able to do this in small bites that we can easily incorporate into our day to make training... dare I say... easy. If you are looking for a dog that you can bring ANYWHERE, Dog Adventures Northwest can provide exactly that in a gentle way. We highly recommend them and cannot say enough positive things about how they approach teaching you and your companion!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Dog Adventures Northwest is amazing and I highly recommend them! The owner, Kerry, is so kind, professional, and knowledgeable. She paired us with the perfect trainer for our new puppy, based on our needs and situation. Kate, our trainer, was incredible and our puppy loves her. He is always so excited to see her and sad to say goodbye. We have done a mix of basic training and socialization, including puppy Day Camp with Hannah (who is amazing as well). My pup learned a lot and had so much fun. The knowledge I have gained is valuable as I continue to reinforce my Bogey's behavior at home. I'm looking forward to future adventures with DANW!
