My dog has been coming here once a week for the last 6 years. Friendly staff and good updates at pick up.
You did a wonderful job grooming my “kids”. Penny my 6 yr old looks amazing. Snuggles my 15 yr old is so soft to touch. We’re vacationing here for next 5-6 yrs and we’ll definitely use Central Bark again. Thank you
Absolutely amazing care for our dogs. I could not recommend them enough. We had never kenneled our dogs before and were nervous to try it for the first time. However, they made everything about our experience as smooth as possible. You can tell they really care about the animals that are in their care. I wouldn’t take my dogs anywhere else.
You did a wonderful job with. Mabel for one day. I appreciated your phone calls regarding her feeding schedule. Mabel loves coming to Central Bark and we will have her stay overnight on August 27.
Thanks,
Jim and Mabel Clark

Great place to bring your dog. Excellent staff. Our dog loves this place!
This was Penny’s first day and it was amazing for her and for me. Everyone cares for each dog like they are their own and you can tell from the first meeting that your family member is safe in their care.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best puppy food?
Puppies have unique nutritional needs that require specially formulated food to keep them healthy and happy as they grow. The best food for your puppy will depend on their dietary needs, breed, and personal preferences.
Every item in our Central Bark® Market is specially selected to enhance your puppy’s physical health and nutrition, and provide enrichment, happiness, and comfort. We can help you choose from our selection of healthy and nutritious food to help your puppy develop so they can enjoy a long and happy life with your family.

How are staff trained and what behavior management tools do they use in a playgroup?
Our staff is trained in dog body language and positive playgroup management techniques so they can respond proactively to help avoid issues between dogs. These tools include praise, treats, and work on important Group Play Skills daily like name recall, group sits, and going calmly in and out of doorways and gates. If a dog ever becomes overstimulated during play (just like kids do on the playground sometimes) we use these practiced skills to help redirect dogs into more desired behaviors (like coming to us and offering a sit for a treat) which gives the dog a chance to reset and calm down. When needed, we also utilize play breaks (a short rest in an individual crate) or in-group leash walks if a dog needs a little more help to bring their energy levels back down.
What should I bring to Doggy Day Care?
Once you have enrolled, we will need a copy of your dog’s vaccination records, which you can upload to your online account or bring with you on your scheduled first day. We also ask that your dog comes in on a regular 6-foot flat leash (no retractable or flexi-leads in the lobby) and a quick-release collar. Not sure what a quick-release collar is? No problem! We’ll be happy to show you on your first day. If your dog usually wears a harness while walking, you’re welcome to bring that as well.
If your dog typically eats a midday meal, you can bring it in an airtight container clearly labeled with your dog’s first and last names.
How much does dog training cost?
With a variety of training solutions available, training costs depend upon what kind of training you and your dog need.
Central Bark® offers everything you need to help you train your new puppy or older dog. Including group classes and Training Tutor sessions that can take place during day care. Our expert training and classes help you, and your dog learn and bond together.
