A Healthy, Balanced Day
At our Carol Stream doggy day care, we create a holistic experience. It encompasses play, exercise, socialization, learning, rest, and tender loving care (TLC). Our approach is customized to cater to the unique needs and preferences of each individual dog.
- Play, Exercise, and Socialization – Physical activity is vital for your dog’s weight management and muscle development, not to mention its positive impact on their mood and mental energy. By providing a healthy outlet for their physical and mental energy, we help them become more relaxed at home. Positive interactions with new people, other dogs, and different environments contribute to the development of well-adjusted and socially adept dogs. We offer both small and large playgroups in indoor and outdoor settings, tailoring the experience to your dog’s age, personality, and comfort level.
- Rest – In the midst of play and socialization, rest becomes essential for your dog’s physical, mental, and emotional health. Our daily schedule is thoughtfully designed to prevent overstimulation and achieve the perfect equilibrium between rest, play, and learning.
- Learning – Dogs learn from both humans and their furry companions. With our guidance, dogs teach each other appropriate social behavior, and our expert staff employs positive training techniques to encourage safe play and nurture healthy social behaviors during their time at day care.
- Love – When your dog joins our Carol Stream doggy day care, they become part of our extended family. We shower them with the love and attention they crave while you’re away, fostering a strong bond that boosts their comfort and confidence. Regular attendance allows us to intimately understand your dog’s personality, requirements, and preferences. This knowledge enables us to detect subtleties like changes in mood, behavior, or potential health concerns that might otherwise go unnoticed.
A Dog Day Care Committed to Safety
The safety and well-being of our guests are our utmost priority. Being dog parents ourselves, we hold a deep sense of pride in extending the same care and attention to every dog that walks through our doors. Our unwavering commitment is to ensure a secure and wholesome environment for everyone who steps into our facility.
Central Bark Enrichment Dog Day Care Features:
Flexible Group Play
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.
Group Play Skills
Interactive group activities and positive reinforcement help dogs practice important skills like name recall, and behaviors like group sit and calmly going in and out of doors and gates. These activities are fun and rewarding for your dog and help improve behavior and impulse control, prevent overstimulation, and create a safer social environment.
Rest Period Enrichment
Your dog gets to relax and recharge in their own private space with calming interactive toys and healthy food pairings tailored to their preferences and diet. It promotes physical and mental relaxation which can help them achieve a healthy balance of play, learning, and rest. It can also help them become more comfortable in crates by building positive associations.
One-on-One Enrichment
Personalized One-on-One Enrichment sessions at our doggy day care in Carol Stream give your dog the extra attention they love and the freedom to use their senses and safely explore their instincts through interactive toys, puzzles, and games. It’s fun and rewarding, exercises their bodies and minds, and engages their senses. Add complexity with fitness and agility equipment.
