Questions & answers
From GoogleWhat people have asked about this business.
Will there be classes this evening?
Although they frequently have classes in the evenings, the front desk is usually not staffed then so, if you have questions, you might want to contact them a different way. (That's the explanation they gave me when I told them Goggle maps said they were closed.) If you are asking about this particular night inre weather, idk.

My golden retriever has been attending Coventry day camp once or twice a week for over a year, starting with super puppy club at 12 weeks old and now attending ace and play. She (and I) absolutely love this place. They pick the play groups thoughtfully, and it really ensures she gets the best play time and attention from staff while she is there and comes home tired. She is never in a group larger than a handful of dogs, and is often in a group with only one other dog, who is her best friend. She adores the staff here too. I couldn’t ask for a better day camp for my dog
The owner (Liz) and GM (Shelley) were wonderful, knowledgeable, and so kind and caring. They listened and guided me in a difficult situation with a family dog. I highly recommend them and Coventry.
This company constantly provides great courses and works to help you build a great relationship with your dog. I have done the puppy kindergarten and now am doing nose work classes and find so much value in each class. The instructors are kind and willing to answer questions, they recommend helpful products or videos as well as articles as well.

This place is amazing. We take our puppy here for classes and for Daycare. Both services have been wonderful. Our puppy went through Kindergarten and Jumpstart with Liz and she has been so wonderful to learn from. We've learned so much and the classes have very much been worthwhile. The daycare is great too, though I admit it's hard to get into (due to high demand). You have to sign up very well in advance, say a week or even two, but they have provided great service for our puppy and he certainly enjoys himself. We also appreciate the report card we get of him every time he comes.
