Read our Dog Boarding Guidelines.
We normally board our dog at a vet clinic, but we planned a trip last minute during our daughter’s spring break and our boarding facility was booked. Fortunately, Mike had an opening for our almost 4 yr old pittie mix. I brought her in for an assessment and Mike and his staff member left a great impression – they were both so calm and warm. To our surprise, we received daily photos of our dog smiling as she played with the other dogs. We will definitely board our dog at Central Bark again as they were so accommodating with her boarding anxieties, meds and special diet. Thank you guys again for getting us in last minute and for the wonderful care.

Sleepovers at Central Bark® offer your dog a calm, relaxing sleepover in a place they can feel comfortable and loved.

A full day of Doggy Day Care is complimentary with your sleepover, so your dog can play with their friends after a good night’s rest.
As part of joining the Central Bark® family, our expert staff conducts a thorough behavior assessment at your local Central Bark store. These assessments help ensure that your dog is placed with a playgroup they’re comfortable with so they can play safely every day they’re with us.
This four-day evaluation, while your dog participates in our Enrichment Day Care, assesses your dog’s:
- Comfort and social skills with people
- Social skills and playstyle with other dogs to help determine the playgroup and play schedule they can benefit from the most
- Comfort in both indoor and outdoor play spaces
- Comfort in rest areas and a crate
- Ability to share resources like water and toys in social settings
- Level of comfort taking treats in social settings
This process gives us a chance to get to know you and your dog while your dog gets acquainted with their new favorite place away from home. Through the entire four days, your dog’s comfort and safety is our top priority.
Once your pup passes all the behavior assessment elements, you are welcome to sign up for any of our daycare services or a sleepover!
To schedule a Behavior Assessment for your dog, please contact your local store.
NOTE: Please bring all required signed forms, vaccination proof, and a collar and leash for your behavior assessment.
Boarding service pricing may vary by service and location, as well as the length of stay.
