Our Boulder Team

Brook is considered a CBW veteran. She has managed, operated, and directed Camps and Camp Bow Wow's home-based pet care service in Colorado for many years. In addition, she spent 4 years at the corporate office providing assistance to 125 CBWs across the country. Her long term experience in owning and managing small businesses, along with her love for dogs and pets, makes her the perfect fit for the team. She is also a graduate of the C.U. Business School. Brook has always had Shar-Pei dogs and admired XL breeds (specifically Great Danes, Saint Bernards and Bernese Mountain Dogs) but her 2 year old daughter asked Santa for a Dachshund, thus Stan joined the family. They have also adopted a hedgehog named Dick Valentine!

Janis came to us all the way from a Camp in Rochester, New York where she worked for a year and a half before moving to Colorado. ;-) She has been part of the CBW Boulder pack since July and has quickly become an important and well-loved member of our team! Janis was initially attracted to Camp because of her love for all animals; dogs in particular. Janis feels that Camp Bow Wow and its mission is so great, she just knew she had to be a part of it. Getting to know each of the dogs and their personalities makes all the hard work worthwhile. Plus, watching puppies grow up with us is so amazing! While she loves helping our two-legged customers at the front desk, her favorite thing to do at Camp is baths. Giving a dog the “sPAW Treatment” and spending one on one time with our Campers is the best part of every day.

When not pampering pups at Camp, Janis loves hula hooping! We can only imagine her sweet, high energy dog, Penny, loves chasing the hula hoop around and around. Penny loves playing at Camp and food! If she could speak to Janis, she would tell her “I love you, now please feed me!”

Gage has been with Camp Bow Wow Boulder for a year and half. He loves working at Camp because all the dogs are great, and so are the employees. It's special that everyone cares about the dogs so much AND their fellow Camp Counselors. It's a great work environment. He initially applied to work at Camp because he really loves dogs and Camp seemed like a great opportunity to not only hang out with a bunch of them but get to learn more about canine companions, too! His favorite thing to do at Camp is hang out in the yards with his four-legged friends.

Gage has a husky/lab mix named Mahalo. If Mahalo could speak, he would say that Gage “is the best cuddler around and he gives me all the treats!” His career goals are to work on something space related such as programming a planetary rover. He recalls a funny moment in the yards when Juna was getting into that midday sleepy slump but he was still standing up as his eyes drooped with heavy sleep. He stumbled while falling asleep standing! LOL, Juna is one entertaining character.

As an opera singer, it would be easy to expect a bold, deep, “alpha dog” voice to come from Joe. In reality, he is simply one of the best at keeping the dogs calm and happy with his soothing tone. He is following his dreams to sing professionally, but has already made it to the “big stage” here with us at Camp. Dogs love his kind sole and friendship, we appreciate his loyalty and compassion for our four-legged friends! When asked what he loved about CBW Boulder, he simply said “hanging out with the dogs.

Allison has been with Camp Bow Wow Boulder for almost 2 years now! She has a Puggle at home named Daisy. If Daisy could speak, she would say that Allison “gives me the best cuddles and walks!” If these cuddles are anything like the cuddles she gives to dogs at Camp, they truly are the best! Allison is a natural caretaker. Her career goals are to become a nurse! There’s no doubt in our minds that she’ll be great.

Allison wanted to work at Camp Bow Wow to spend time with and care for all of the dogs. She loves working at Camp because she also loves her coworkers as well as the dogs! Likeminded, caring people who just want to play with and care for dogs is a good place to find friends! Her favorite things to do at Camp are putting down meals, administering medications, and giving dog baths. This is probably because these all give her some nice one on one time with the pups. Her favorite thing that happens at Camp is when Rhea scratches at the gate just to get into the same yard as Allison! So much love.

James has been with Camp Bow Wow Boulder for over 3 years. He took a year off to head back East but just couldn’t stay gone long. He originally wanted to work with dogs just for the interim until he could figure out what else to do. What started out as just any ‘ole job, turned into the opportunity to work with an amazing staff and for the most stellar boss! Now his career goals are simply to become financially independent. James feels that Camp has become his home away from home. There is not a day that he isn’t excited to come into work!

Spending time and getting to know all of our clients – whether they have two or four legs—is James’ favorite thing to do at Camp. In fact, one of the most memorable stories about James comes from a chat with a sweet client a few years ago. While trying to convey the dedication and love we all feel for the dogs, he exclaimed “the dogs are our lives!” And now we quote him all the time! James has the sweetest yellow lab named Sprout who loves coming to work with Dad. In fact, if he could speak, he would tell James “I’ll be your best friend if you take me to Camp with you more!” Everyone is so happy that James and Sprout came home!
