VerifiedFull-day dog daycare in Point Loma generally runs $30—$50 per day at the three facilities on the peninsula. Camp Run-A-Mutt Point Loma and Camp Bow Wow San Diego Airport both offer multi-day packages and monthly passes that bring the per-day cost below $30 for regular users. Half-day rates are available at most facilities for owners who only need a few hours of coverage.
Wags & Ruffs rounds out the local options. Overnight boarding adds a premium—typically $45—$70 per night depending on the facility and the size of the dog. Peak-season pricing around holidays and summer travel months can push rates higher, so booking ahead for Thanksgiving and Christmas travel is standard practice at all three locations.
Camp Run-A-Mutt Point Loma carries the strongest combination of ratings and review count among the three daycares on the peninsula. The facility runs a cage-free, open-play model where dogs socialize in supervised groups rather than sitting in individual runs. Owners cite the staff's attentiveness, the photo updates sent during the day, and the fact that dogs come home tired—which is the whole point.
Wags & Ruffs matches Camp Run-A-Mutt on ratings and runs a similarly open environment. Camp Bow Wow San Diego Airport is the largest facility of the three, with the most structured play groups separated by size and temperament. The best fit depends on your dog's personality—high-energy dogs tend to thrive in the free-play model, while dogs that need more structure may do better at Camp Bow Wow.
All three Point Loma daycares offer overnight boarding. Camp Bow Wow San Diego Airport is the most built-out for overnights—the facility was designed with boarding in mind, and the airport-adjacent location caters specifically to travelers who need to drop off a dog before a flight. Webcam access lets owners check in from the road or from wherever they land.
Camp Run-A-Mutt Point Loma and Wags & Ruffs also board dogs overnight, with the added benefit that dogs get a full day of play before and after the overnight stay. For owners who want their dog to sleep at home rather than a facility, Wildwood Petcare offers in-home pet sitting where a sitter stays at the owner's house.
Camp Run-A-Mutt Point Loma is specifically built around the cage-free model—dogs spend the day in supervised open-play areas rather than rotating between kennels and scheduled yard time. The approach works best for social dogs that enjoy group play, and the staff evaluates temperament before admitting new dogs to make sure the group dynamic holds.
Wags & Ruffs runs a similar open environment. Camp Bow Wow San Diego Airport uses a hybrid approach with play groups separated by size and energy level, and individual rest areas available. Cage-free does not mean unsupervised—all three facilities staff their play areas throughout the day and separate dogs if conflicts arise.
Start with a tour. All three Point Loma daycares—Camp Run-A-Mutt, Camp Bow Wow, and Wags & Ruffs—welcome drop-in visits so you can see the play areas, meet the staff, and watch how they handle group dynamics. Ask about the staff-to-dog ratio, how they separate dogs by size and energy, and what happens if a fight breaks out.
Vaccination requirements matter too—all reputable daycares require current rabies, DHPP, bordetella, and usually canine influenza before admission. If your dog has not been in a group setting before, ask about a temperament assessment or trial day. Location is the final filter: Camp Bow Wow's airport proximity works best for travelers, while Camp Run-A-Mutt and Wags & Ruffs sit closer to the residential core. San Diego Pet Driver in Ocean Beach is another boarding option for owners on the western edge of the peninsula.
