Day Camp operates Monday - Sunday between 7:00 am - 6:00 pm. Drop off is between 7:00 am - 10:00 am and pick up is between 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm.

You drop your dog off during the drop-off window (7:00 am - 10:00 am) and from there it's all day, all play! We separate pups into our spacious pens based on their personality and energy levels. We carefully supervise their play all day to ensure that everyone is happy and safe. Then, you pick up a tired pup at pick-up time (3:00 pm - 6:00 pm).

Ensure your dog has a properly fitted flat collar, this means you can only fit two fingers between it and your pup. You can also bring their lunch and medicine in clearly labelled containers.

Before attending daycare, your pup needs to pass Day Camp Assessment. This is to ensure they are a good fit for our daycare crew. In this assessment we test their socialisation skills and separation anxiety. Once your pup passes their assessment, you will be given access to book full days in on our booking platform.

We accept pups that are a safe fit for themselves, the other daycare dogs, and our staff. During the assessment we test for separation anxiety and socialisation skills. Dogs with a reactivity or extreme separation anxiety (eg. trying to jump fences) will not be accepted into the program and can instead work towards those goals with training.

Pups must be up to date on their Rabies, DAPP, and Bordetella (Kennel Cough). We also recommend having Leptospirosis as well. Vaccination certificates will need to be uploaded to our booking platform before attending a Day Camp Assessment.

In order to book in full Day Camp days, your pup must have first passed a Day Camp assessment. You will have already created an account on our booking platform. From there, you can go to the 'Book' page to book in Day Camp.

No! You will drop off your dog and we will give them a nice slow introduction to the daycare process. This allows for us to get a feel of how they act without their owners present.

Please bring your pup on a properly fitted flat collar (where you can fit only two fingers underneath). You can also bring any food/medication they'd normally take during the assessment hours in a clearly labelled container.

We offer baths, haircuts, nail trims, paw trims, ear cleaning, teeth & breath cleaning, and brush outs. We have many packages and deals available, including our Puppy Socialisation Service which helps familiarise young pups to be confident in the grooming room. Check out our grooming services and packages here.

Grooming operates Monday through Friday. Grooming Clients: 9:30am - 1:00pm Daycare Clients: 12:00pm - 5:30pm

All pups taking part in any of our programs (including grooming) must provide proof of vaccination showing that their DAPP, Rabies, and Bordetella vaccines are all up to date. Owner's must also sign our Service Agreement.

The amount of time it takes for pet grooming varies depending on the breed, service, and temperament of your pup. You can usually plan for it taking anywhere between 1-3 hours. Minor services, such as nail trim or ear cleans, take approximately 5-10 minutes.

We do not allow any grooming clients to come without an appointment being previously booked in. You can book an appointment through your Gingr account (sign in here) or by emailing into info@campshakeapaw.com.

Our grooming services are available for anyone! Our only requirements to take part in our grooming services is to have your pup’s DAPP, Rabies and Bordetella vaccine up to date. There are a few programs that are exclusive to our campers only. These programs are: The monthly grooming subscription Bath packages Muddy paw service

Yes, we now offer full body haircuts as well as simple Face, Feet and Sani Trims.

Grooming appointments can be booked through your Gingr account (sign in here) or by emailing into info@campshakeapaw.com. Daycare clients can book in a groom at the time of booking daycare, or by emailing us afterwards to add to an existing daycare reservation. If you are booking a haircut please make sure to add some details of the style cut that you are wanting in the notes section. This would include the length that you are wanting taken off/left on, if there are certain parts that you like left fluffy, ect. If you have a photo of a previous groom that you really liked then feel free to also email us a copy of those photos to info@campshakeapaw.com.

Once your groom is complete, the groomer will send over an online invoice and will let you know it is time to pick up your pup. Alternatively, you can pay cash at pick-up.

You should bathe your dog at least once a month (unless they're prone to dry skin). There is such a thing as too many baths, and excessive bathing can harm your pet. Bathing your dog with shampoo and conditioner too often can strip their natural oils, which can result in a dry/dull coat and itchy skin. This is one of the reasons we offer the Muddy Paws service to Daycare Clients. This service only rinses off the dirt, so your dog can run around all day at daycare and be clean at pick up.

It is typically recommended to get a haircut for your pup every 8-10 weeks, this is the amount of time that it takes your pup’s hair to grow back out. The timeline in between all depends on how long you are wanting to let your pup’s hair grow out before cutting it again.

It is recommended to get your dog's nails done every 2-3 weeks. However, this can vary based on a dog's age and even the breed. If your dog's nails grow fast it is a good idea to have them done more frequently. Puppies and senior dogs should get their nails trimmed every 2 weeks to help remove the sharpness for puppies and to help prevent any health issues and prevent their quicks (blood vessels) from getting longer on seniors.

Trimming clips the nail shorter, while grinding is a tool that can give a smoother finish to the nails and gets you closer to the quick (blood vessel). In time the grinder also helps the quick become smaller, so the nails won’t be as long. This is especially beneficial for puppies and seniors.

We offer any pups under the age of 8 months old the chance to get used to all the feelings, sounds and experiences of our grooming services. We will slowly get them used to what it feels like to be groomed by a professional so that they know what to expect during all of our grooming service. This is a great way to set your pup up for success in any grooming services when they are an adult. Getting groomed by a professional is a lot of new sounds and feelings for a dog, our grooming socialisation is a great way to help introduce them to the world of grooming when they are young and help to ease them away from any nervousness that they may feel.

If you are interested in getting your camper started in our monthly grooming subscription then please either email into info@campshakeapaw.com or speak to a camp leader at drop off/pick-up. This service will then be added onto your Gingr account and automatically renew itself every month. Your subscription can be canceled at any time, all you have to do is email into info@campshakeapaw.com and the subscription will be removed from your account.

Camp Shake-A-Paw uses a balanced training approach; this is also known as the science based method. It is a healthy mix of positive training to encourage the good behaviours and gentle discouragement. This encourages clear communication between you and your pup.

Training operates Monday - Friday in hour long sessions. We offer both in-home sessions (in London area for a fee) and Facility Training sessions. Monday through Friday Both on-property and in-home training is offered every hour starting at 10:00am. The available time slots are 10:00 am, 11:00 pm, 12:00 pm, 1:00 pm, 2:00pm, 3:00pm, 4:00pm, and 5:00pm. Not sure what location to book? We will recommend your first location when replying to your inquiry and your trainer will then discuss the next best location after your first session.

Every dog learns differently! This varies depending on your situation and dog's current level. We will analyse your Training Inquiry Form and recommend what we think would work best for your goals. Available Options Single Training Session - $120.00 3 Pack of Training - $330.00 includes a 20% discount for a HEAT Leader walking tool Please note that there is a $20.00 in-home training fee for travel to locations more than 5 minutes away from our property. *Prices subject to change. Prices don't include taxes. Training packages expire 60 days after first use.

Upon reviewing your inquiry, we will recommend where your first session should occur. Once given permissions to book training on our booking platform Gingr, you can book in sessions either in-home (London area only) or at our facility.

We recommend all family members who interact with your pup on a regular basis attend training! This allows everyone to learn the tools and techniques we use and sets your family and pup up for success.

The only thing you need to bring is yourself and you pup(s)! Make sure your dog's collar is properly tightened (can fit two fingers underneath) before their training session. You can also bring along some treats that they enjoy. If working on subjects on-leash, your pup will need to have on a head collar. You can bring your own or purchase our Heat Leader.

To attend training, your pup must be up to date on their Bordetella (Kennel Cough), Rabies, and DAPP. These must all be done regardless of where your session takes place. Puppy's vaccines will usually be completed around 16 weeks old. Current vaccination records will need to be uploaded to your Gingr booking account. This can be done under 'Account' > 'Upload Records'.

We would like to see how your pup typically behaves, meaning we don't want you to prepare anything beforehand! This allows us to see the root of the problem behaviour, which allows us to address it most effectively.

You can access our booking platform by either WEBPAGE or APP (Called Gingr for Pet Parents - Facility Code 464716)
