We've been taking our dog to BratPak Dog Kamp since 2021, and they've been incredible. Mante is treated like family and we wouldn't trust anyone else with him. The team is professional, communicative and the facility is always immaculate.

My dog Winston has been going to Daycare for the last couple months and loves it! He looks forward to playing with all the other pups and he comes home tired! The staff is great and they constantly update their IG with pictures of the pups.

Sean was absolutely wonderful. We recently got a 4 month old American Pitbull XL and have a 1 year old Shih Tzu. Sean sat with us for 45 minutes and very carefully worked through training. Truly knowledgeable and patient.

I truly can't say enough good things about BratPak. I've been searching for a trusted dog facility for a while and I'm so happy I found this place. The staff was so patient and kind with me and Dutch.

We tried a few different daycares for our golden retriever puppies. They love this place so much that they run to the gated entrance. We drive over 30 min to take our pups here because it's worth it.

Our dog, Minnie, loves BratPak. Every time I drop her off she goes right through the gate with the attendant without looking back, tail wagging. They take very good care of her.
