Safety & Wellness

First — Always.

Must be spayed/neutered and current on vaccinations
(Rabies, Distemper, Bordetella required; Canine Flu recommended)

Unhappy Campers:

If a dog struggles to acclimate, they’ll be cared for in a quiet boarding area and given gentle one-on-one attention until they’re comfortable.

Train While They Stay

Turn your dog’s boarding stay into a learning experience! Our certified trainers provide personalized lessons during their daily routine.

From basic obedience to confidence-building, each session reinforces good habits so your pup returns home happier, calmer, and better behaved.

I trust every single person at Carlson Canine implicitly. I have used all of their services (training, boarding, daycare, and grooming) and have never had anything but great service. They take amazing care of my dogs and I never have to worry about them when they are at Carlson.

Carlson canine camp has been a great place to for doggy daycare. It’s allowed my pup to continue socializing with other dogs. She seems to enjoy coming here. Staff and trainers are all phenomenal. We’re halfway through her puppy training class and it’s been going great.

Our yellow Labrador (Buddy) has been at dog daycares across the USA over the last 7 years. In that time he has always been treated well but I have never seen him so happy as he was at Carlson's Day Camp. I also observed that every dog I saw enter this camp was wagging themselves almost in half, they were so happy to be there.

We were very happy with Carlson when we boarded our beloved dog here. Our boy was very happy when he got back to us and seemed much less frazzled than he has been with other boarding places. The value is excellent and we will likely use them again.

Absolutely wonderful business. I've taken my Luna there on multiple occasions and she absolutely loves it. Staff is very friendly, great with you and your pets. Good prices and readily available at your convenience.
