We were living in Atlanta for a year and Central Bark was the closest daycare facility to my work. When we visited the facility before bringing the dogs, the staff were extremely kind and helpful with showing us around and answering our questions.
The facility and the staff were absolutely amazing for our two Great Dane boys. They would match the play group with their personality and activity, which they would come home tired and happy from a fun day. They also loved every staff member and were always happy to see them when they arrive!
One of our pups had surgery and couldn’t stay home after the first couple weeks due to our work, but their “Day and Play” program is exceptional for needing to be away from other dogs until medically cleared. Despite being alone, he had a buddy throughout the day for low-level play time and enrichment to keep him busy.
We highly recommend taking your dogs to Central Bark in Atlanta! We honestly wish we could’ve picked them up and take them with us to our new home destination. Even if your dog can’t be with other dogs for some reason, they will not be bored! We miss them dearly!

I’m thrilled to have Central Bark a place I can trust to take the best care of my dog. Service is above and beyond. Everyone is very caring and knowledgeable. Definitely the best around!”
We boarded our dogs for the weekend—one for the first time and one who’s stayed elsewhere before—and both came home extremely happy.
The daily report cards showed how much the staff genuinely loves and cares for every pet. Our doggos were showered with care and cuddles. Highly recommend!

Nik does a great job with our Pekingnese. It’s a mutual love-fest every time he goes to grooming! Can’t recommend enought.
Great Daycare!!!! My dog gets so excited every single day to see every team member at Central Bark Atlanta. The staff is great, they are very responsible and truly take pride in what they do ensuring a great experience for your furry family members.
CBA staff are kind and loving with my dog and I am sure she is safe and engaged when she is there. Sleepovers (boarding) have been working just fine and I don’t feel worried when I travel now. I am so grateful that a neighbor recommended CBA!!
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to get a dog groomed?
All dogs are different, and like humans, your dog deserves grooming customized to their size, breed, and level of attention. For this reason, prices may vary by service and location.
How does Central Bark mentally stimulate a dog?
At Central Bark®, our goal is to provide a balanced day of play, learning, rest, and love. Learning and mental exercise can happen in various ways, including training activities, brain games, scent work, and more. Our playgroups offer several hours of active playtime paired with learning opportunities during Group Play Skills. This way, dogs have plenty of time to socialize and get their energy out, while also exercising their minds through learning.
During one of your dog’s rest periods throughout the day, they are offered a rest period enrichment activity to stimulate their mind while encouraging healthy rest. These licking and chewing activities involve food rewards, such as frozen peanut butter KONG®. These activities engage their minds while helping foster quality rest.
Did you know? Scientific studies have shown that licking and chewing behaviors (especially those that involve food rewards!) are self-soothing, decrease heart and respiratory rates, and even release dopamine in a dog’s brain.
Training Tutor sessions stimulate the dog’s minds and bodies and help them learn important skills, behaviors, and tricks.
One-on-One Enrichment sessions give the extra attention dogs love and the freedom to use their senses and safely explore their instincts through interactive toys, puzzles, and games.
Did you know? 15 minutes of mental activity is equal to 30 minutes of physical exercise!
What are flexible playgroups?
Flexible playgroups allow us to match your dog with the social atmosphere and play schedule they can enjoy and benefit from most. This helps give them a healthy balance of play, rest, and learning and creates a safer social environment with a better quality of play. And our lower dog-to-staff ratios offer more individual attention, education, and love.
What is the best dog food?
The best dog food will vary depending on each dog’s dietary requirements, medical needs, breed, and personal preferences.
Every item in our Central Bark® Market is specially selected to enhance your dog’s physical health and nutrition and provide enrichment, happiness, and comfort. We can help you choose from our selection of healthy and nutritious food that will give your pup the energy they need for a whole and happy life.
