Great daycare. My shy pup loved it and he came home so tired and happy! They are very structured in introducing newcomers so it made me feel safe and comfortable dropping my dog off for the day.

We love and are so comfortable with sending our dog to Central Bark. He always comes home and is happy and healthy - not overly tired from an “anxious” atmosphere as we have experienced at other dog daycares. Thanks for being so great with him! We highly recommend!

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I be sure that the play space is clean, odor & disease-free, comfortable and safe for the stated capacity of the center?

Central Bark® is licensed and inspected by the Health Department regularly. We also clean and disinfect nightly, regardless of how many dogs have visited.

What does dog grooming include?

Your dog deserves to be pampered. Our full-service dog grooming salon is fully equipped to include anything from a simple brush-out or bath to a full spa day, a grooming session.

And our lower dog-to-staff ratios offer more individual attention, education, and love.
