Dog Boarding & Daycare in the Iowa City Area

Stay and Play at Camp Sunny®!

Ah, the agony of leaving your dog.

Whether it’s for a day, a week, or even longer, it’s SO hard.  What we truly want is to find a place where we can let go of some of that worry.  A place that is safe, sanitary, and supervised.  A place where our dogs are so busy having fun and learning that they don’t have time to miss us.

Well, you’ve found it:  Camp Sunny at Just Dogs PlayCare.  Our lodging services provide amenities and comforts for social dogs* – those who are OK being around other dogs – that you just can’t find elsewhere.  Adding enrichment daycare to your dog’s stay at “camp” can make it super fun – providing fun and mentally stimulating daily activities in addition to play time.

Want even more?   

How about adding a bedtime story, tuck-in treat toy, or diary from camp?

What Time Can I Drop Off My Dog?

The latest Drop-Off time for lodging is 4 PM on weekdays. This is to give us time to tucker ’em out before tucking ’em in!  Please plan accordingly. If you cannot arrive by 4 PM, other drop-off times are 6:30-9:30 AM and 12-1 PM. (Note: The 4 PM cut-off is only for Drop-Offs; the afternoon Pick-Up time is from 3-6 PM.)

Weekend and holiday drop off times are typically 8-9 AM and 4-5 PM.  Be sure to check specific hours for each holiday here!

*Please note that Camp Sunny is not right for all dogs—for example, dogs who:

  • …are not spayed or neutered (if over 6 months of age), per Iowa Department of Agriculture regulations, to prevent unexpected pregnancies, as dogs staying at Camp Sunny spend time with other dogs;
  • …have extreme kennel or crate stress where they may injure themselves;
  • …have never been around other dogs or really don’t like being around them;
  • …are aggressive or fearful of new dogs and/or humans;
  • …have serious health issues or physical/mobility problems.

Before admittance to Camp Sunny, all dogs must have completed Intake Interview and at least one day of Doggie Daycare at JDPC to ensure that a social atmosphere is right for them….before their humans leave town. Plan ahead! Steps to Enroll Your Dog(s)
