Dog Gone Fun Camp

. We have too much fun here at the Dog Gone Fun Camp. Dogs that come to camp here, don't want to go home!!! We do absolutely NO formal training, rather, we incorporate good manners into all of our daily activities. With 20 years of dog training experience, we can handle all doggy personalities. With positive reinforcement and clear, concise communication with your dog, your dog will know more when he/she leaves camp. We play all day, get plenty of exercise and learn, learn, learn here at the Dog Gone Fun Camp.

Karen was great! Picked up our Corgi super early in the morning and kept us updated throughout his whole stay with her!

Karen is amazing! My dog absolutely loves Karen and gets excited when we pull Down her street. Karen keeps me updated as to how Piper is doing and genuinely cares about her.

Gus always has a fantastic time with Karen and we can leave town knowing he's well taken care of!

Karen is awesome, our dog Charlie loves going to see her when we go on our trips. Karen is so flexible and easy-going. I really appreciate it with our busy schedules. Karen is our number one pick when it comes to dog boarding.💛

Doggy Day Care • may. 12, 2026

Karen was amazing!! We were traveling in from out-of-town and were very nervous about leaving our pug, Curtis, with a stranger for the first time since we got him a few months ago. Karen was very knowledgeable, and Curtis seemed drawn to her right away, which pretty quickly helped to put us more at ease. Karen was great with Curtis and sent us several fun and cute updates throughout the day about snuggling, playing piano for him, and his unexpectedly strong attachment to her husband Jim. When we picked him up at the end of each day, Curtis seemed happy and confident, which indicated that he had a lot of fun hanging out with Karen (& Jim), and we always stayed an extra 15 minutes to chat. Her house was kind of a drive from where we were staying in downtown Cincinnati, but Karen was well-worth the drive. If we’re ever back in Cincinnati with Curtis, we would love to work with Karen again!
