We get it – your pup isn’t just a pet, they’re family. That’s why we’ve created a place where safety and joy go hand in hand.
Our Approach
What really makes Paws Dog Camp special isn’t just what we do differently – it’s the heart behind it. This business grew from Trina’s lifelong passion for dogs and decades of hands-on experience, not from a corporate boardroom. That authentic love shows in every safety protocol, every personalized introduction, and every tail-wagging pickup.
We’ve found the sweet spot that most dog care providers miss: combining professional reliability with genuine personal care. While others focus purely on efficiency or operate too casually, we deliver both consistent standards and the kind of attention that makes dogs excited to see us coming and owners confident they’ve made the right choice. The result? Dogs don’t just get exercise – they thrive, build confidence, and genuinely look forward to their camp days.
Solo dog walkers mean well, but what happens when they're sick or unavailable? We're a reliable team with backup plans, professional training, and the kind of consistency your dog craves. Plus, your pup gets the social interaction they're missing on solo walks.
Dog parks can be a free-for-all with unknown dogs and zero supervision. Here at camp, we know every single dog, watch every interaction, and make sure playtime stays safe and happy. No surprises, no worries.
Those warehouse-style places treat dogs like inventory – pack 'em in and hope for the best. We keep our groups small, know every pup by name, and create genuine friendships. Your dog isn't a number here; they're part of our family.
Get photos and stories so you can see exactly how much fun your pup is having. It’s like having a window into their best day ever.
We celebrate the big moments – birthdays, gotcha days, holidays. Because every dog deserves to feel extra special sometimes.
Some dogs love wrestling, others prefer gentle chase games. We design activities around what makes each pup’s tail wag the hardest.
We’re basically doggie matchmakers. Your pup gets paired with friends who share their play style and energy level – no bullies, no overwhelming situations.
Your dog deserves more than just another day at home. At our multi-acre Peninsula retreat, we create the kind of playdate experience that leaves tails wagging and owners smiling. We pick up, we play, we drop off—and through it all, your pup gets the love and attention they’d get from family, because that’s exactly how we see them.
With plenty of secure outdoor space to run, sniff, explore, and play, PAWS gives dogs the freedom to enjoy their day at their own pace. Whether they’re chasing friends, investigating a new scent, or simply soaking up the fresh air, there’s room for every pup to have a great day.
Between work and life, you’ve got enough on your plate. That’s why we take care of pickup, drop-off, and managing your weekly subscription, so the only thing you need to worry about is seeing that happy, tired pup at the end of the day.
We know your dog is family, and we treat them that way. Every dog must be up-to-date on vaccinations, we clean and sanitize daily, and our team watches every pup like they’re our own.
Regular camp days help your dog feel comfortable, confident, and excited to return. With a minimum of two visits each week, our team gets to truly know your pup—their personality, favorite playmates, energy level, and what makes them happiest at camp.
Wondering if your pup will love their time here? The answer depends on their personality, but we’ve designed camp with different types of dogs in mind.
We proudly provide the most trustworthy and professional doggy daycare service on the Peninsula.
“Our large boy — shepherd/rotty mix — has been going to Paws since he was just a puppy; he’s now 7. He loves his days at the Ranch, and we love that he comes home exhausted and happy. We also use Paws for boarding when we’re on vacation, and we always have total peace of mind. Paws is professionally run, well organized, and communication is top notch. We’ve used other dog walkers and boarders in the past, and Paws is the best. It’s our dog’s second home, and we always know he is well taken care of and loved!”
“Paws is a convenient and affordable option for working dog parents. Due to my work schedule, I am rarely home when Spencer gets picked up and dropped off. The Paws team is very flexible about any special requests, such as putting him in his crate, for their pick-ups and drop-offs. Bay Area commutes can be rough and I appreciate the convenience of not having to worry about doggy daycare hours. Plus, Spencer gets so much more socialization at Paws than he would from a short walk with a dog walker.”
