I can not thank Bonnie and the team enough for the peace of mind they provide me while Cody is at "camp". I have worked from home for the last 6 years so he was used to being with me most of the day. When I started having to go to the office, the transition did not go well and was quite heartbreaking. Cody is my kid and it was horrible to have to leave him for the day! I met Bonnie at an event in my building and it was a god send. I can now go to work knowing that he is in good hands and that he is having a ton of fun. Bonnie loves every dog in her care and it clearly shows. I can not put in to words how appreciative I am and how much fun Cody has! When the staff comes to pick him up, he gets SO excited, it is hard to put his leash on as he is jumping up and down with happiness. There is nothing like that to give you peace of mind, knowing he is in great hands. Thank you Bonnie! To anyone considering bringing their dogs to Central Bark-do it! You won't regret it for one second.

Today was Bella's first day at central bark. I was heartbroken when I left her early in the morning because she cried when I left. She is used to joining me at work, and is hardly ever away from me so I know she was very confused and sad. Bella is like my child so the emotions and worries lasted a while.

After a long agonizing day away from my baby I am so happy I found Central Bark and Bonnie. She was very helpful and didn't mind me calling multiple times for updates. Bella came home exhausted from a day of fun and has been sleeping since I picked her up. I loved the fact that when I went to pick her up I was able to see Bella playing with the handlers and socializing with the other dogs.

I am grateful that Central Bark did not judge my sweet girl over her breed (pitbull/mastiff) and I am glad that they made her feel at home. I looked into many other day cares in Chicago and after many days I had no doubts as to where I would be leaving my girl. Bonnie was so helpful and understanding of my concerns and I saw how much TLC Bella was getting from the handlers.

I am extremely happy and I can now go to work knowing that my dog is safe and happy with people that truly love dogs and are dedicated to their jobs. Thank you Central Bark you have made another family very happy and thank you Bonnie for establishing a day care that sees our dogs as more than just dogs and understands what a huge part of our lives they are. I am very grateful for what you do. -- Andrea

I'm so glad i chose central bark!! they were so friendly and just took snuggles while she trembled the staff is awesome!!! Snuggles looks gorgeous! Thank you!!

I feel blessed to have found Bonnie at central Bark. She is the most remarkable person I know. Her love for our dogs goes beyond words. There is such a comfort knowing how my dogs are loved and taken care of.

Our grandpuppy "Griffin" is our love, he loves 'doggy day care' we heard he was chosen pet of the month for April and had to check it out. He is such a dear, his "smile" is the best. Thanks for taking such good care of him when the family goes on vacation, you all do a wonderful job, keep up the good work.

Hello! My baby Kizzie loves going to doggy day care. As soon as we get home she is so tired from all the fun she has had. I don't know what I would do without doggy daycare. It makes me feel so much better when I have to go to work in the morning.

Today was Brady's first day at CBDDC. The staff is great!!! I feel very comfortable knowing Brady is in good hands while at CBDDC. He feel asleep in the car on the way home!! He can't wait until next week! :)

Love sending my dog here!!!!

Thank you for taking care of our baby "BOBO". We are really happy with the service and quality care. Few months back we travelled out of country and we were worried how I my dog is going to react. But every week I got mails from Sarah and pictures of my dog. We were so happy and felt good that BOBO is really having great time at home. Thanks a lot and keep up the good work.
Regards...

Well, Killian had his first day of day care yesterday, and all reports indicate it was a successful day! He must have had a great day because he slept all the way home. In fact, he was only awake long enought to eat his dinner, and then it was right back to sleep. We're looking forward to many happy days there!

My dogs have been attending doggy day care at the downtown location for almost 2 years now. This location is like family, not only do my dogs get excited and love this place, but so do I. The employees and management are the best in the business, they make you feel like friends, not "customers." These people do more than just watch my dogs, they take care of my children, and that is what is important. Thank you so much for all you do.

When Timo's previous daycare closed in December, I didn't know how long it would take us to find another daycare he enjoyed and felt comfotable at. Well, we got it right on the first try. Timo loves Bonnie and all his new doggie friends - and they love him right back! As soon as I pull up in front of the building, Timo gets all excited because he knows its play time. Thank you Central Bark for welcoming Timo and making him a member of your "pack"!

When Jo first came to Central Bark's Doggie Day Care she was frightened of other animals. I love Central Bark because after a few short weeks I have found it to be an unbelievable fantastic way to have a well socialized and well exercized dog. Now Jo is friends with other dogs and has a great time. I also enjoy the shuttle service Central Bark provides. Its my one stop shop for grooming, exercizing and socializing my dog. Thanks Central Bark!

We sure feel good when we see our pups after a day at Camp Bonnie! Otherwise known as Central Bark. They seem like they had a great time working out and meeting other kids from around the town. We even like to spend the night!! What a cool place we discovered! Its a one stop shop. The dogs love to get bathed and coifed at the CB SPA! Thanks for being there whenever we need you Bonnie and crew.

We have been SO lucky to find Bonnie & the crew at Central Bark!! Our dog, Sam, loves coming here and always comes home exhausted and well-loved! Leaving Sam at Central Bark is like leaving Sam with family. The entire staff is incredibly knowledgable and trustworthy. It has been an extensive process finding a safe and competent daycare in Chicago. Fortunately, the process led us to Bonnie and Central Bark! Getting involved with Central Bark was such a great experience--we can throughly trust that he is safe, socialized, well-behaved and exercised!

My two dogs go to Central Bark Doggie Daycare and I cannot believe how happy and GOOD they are! After searching for a few months and using several other daycares, we came upon Bonnie and Central Bark. Home at last! At Central Bark, my babies get "true" all-day play. I mean, they are out romping about with other dogs, playing with toys, jumping in a wading pool when it's hot, climbing on doggie jungle-gyms, and playing with the Central Bark caretakers for hours. There's a midday break for a rejuvenating nap where Bonnie plays soothing classical music. Then, it's back to play, play, play!

Like I said, it took me a while to find Central Bark. Other daycares would crate my dogs most of the day and they might have 2 or 3 30-minute play times throughout the day. I did find a couple that had 3 or 4 one-hour!
play times, but they were just too far and not as easily accessible as Central Bark. It's literally right off the highway!

My babies have never been healthier and I completely attribute that to the care they get at Central Bark. Bonnie and her staff truly LOVE all the dogs. They take pictures and know all the dogs' habits and quirks. When I pick up my babies and we go home, it is the best quality time because they are all tuckered out and we get to snuggle without all the craziness of dogs that have been cooped up at home alone all day. I'm sorry this is so long, but I really just cannot stop gushing about finding such a GREAT thing! I just had to share. GO TO CENTRAL BARK DOGGIE DAYCARE!!!
