This summer, the Humane Society is offering two exciting camp experiences for young animal lovers!
We’re hosting two specialty camp weeks at our shelter, and we’re also partnering with the Town of Oakville to offer eight additional weeks of camp at town locations.
Whether your child dreams of becoming a veterinarian or simply loves animals, there’s a camp for them!
August 10-14
Ages 6–12
Location: Humane Society of Oakville, Milton & Halton, 445 Cornwall Road, Oakville
Does your child dream of becoming a veterinarian?
During our Vets in Progress (VIP) summer camp, campers will explore the world of animal health through hands-on activities, interactive lessons, and special guest visits. This engaging week blends science, compassion, and creativity — perfect for young animal lovers who want to make a difference in the lives of pets.
August 17-21
Ages 6–12
Location: Humane Society of Oakville, Milton & Halton, 445 Cornwall Road, Oakville
Does your child love animals and wonder what it would be like to work with them one day?
During our Animal Careers summer camp, campers will discover exciting paths that turn a passion for animals into a future career.
Through hands-on activities, guest visits, and interactive lessons, campers will learn what each career involves and the skills needed to succeed. From caring for pets to protecting wildlife, this inspiring week helps young animal lovers imagine how they can make a difference — now and in the future.
Camps in partnership with the Town of Oakville are offered at either Sixteen Mile Sports Complex or Trafalgar Park Community Centre.
We’re excited to offer eight weeks of summer camp in partnership with the Town of Oakville for children ages 6–12.
