Stay Golden Dog Camp & Retreat began with a single pup and a whole lot of love! In 2013, our founder, Jessica Golden, met her first dog, Rozay, on Mother’s Day — a moment that sparked a lifelong passion for caring for dogs. Soon, two more pups joined the Golden family, and what started as in-home boarding and daycare quickly grew into something much bigger.
With the support of our amazing clients, Stay Golden blossomed into a dedicated space for dogs to play, relax, and feel at home. Today, we’re excited to soon be welcoming campers to our 1,900 sq. ft. facility on 7 beautiful acres, conveniently located right on Highway 70 W — just 10 minutes from downtown Dickson.
And the adventure doesn’t stop there! We will soon begin building a brand-new 3,000 sq. ft. lodge to bring even more tail-wagging amenities, play areas, and cozy spaces for our four-legged guests. It’s all part of our mission to make every stay a getaway like no other.
🐾 Stay tuned for updates as we grow — the best is yet to come! 💛
Our Story: How Stay Golden Began 🌟🐶
🏕️ Lodging Packages
Welcome to Stay Golden Dog Camp & Retreat! 🐾
At Stay Golden, boarding is more than a place to sleep — it’s a full camp experience for your four-legged adventurer. Every pup gets their own cozy “cabin,” daily attention from our friendly Camp Counselors, and the perfect mix of comfort, fun, and care.
We’ve designed camp-style lodging packages to match every camper’s personality — from playful pups who want to be in the middle of all the action to laid-back loungers who love extra snuggles and quiet time. Whether it’s group games in the Barkyard, bedtime snacks by the “campfire,” or a well-deserved spa moment before heading home, your dog’s stay will feel like the ultimate retreat.
🌲 Explore our lodging packages below and find the perfect fit for your pup’s stay at camp!
