Let’s inspire the next generation of animal lovers!

We’re welcoming students ages 10-14 years old to Camp Joybound! This award-winning, weeklong camp at Joybound’s Walnut Creek headquarters introduces students to veterinary medicine and animal care, providing hands-on experience with dogs and cats in a fun and instructive environment.

Throughout the week, your child will learn alongside, shadow, and engage in hands-on care with our clinic, animal care, training, and adoption experts. It’s perfect for students with a passion for animal care and wellness, life sciences, and medicine. 

Campers will: 

  • Meet veterinarians and animal care experts to learn about their backgrounds, career pathways, and ask questions about their work 
  • See how surgery takes place and how to provide the best care for dog and cat wellbeing 
  • Learn techniques for dog and cat training, safety, and animal guardianship education 
  • And much more!
