I LOVE this place! This is a one-stop shop for (most of) your dogs needs. Daycare, sleepovers, grooming, enrichment, training, as well as treats, toys and select food items are all available at Central Bark Eugene. The staff are kind, loving, and trustworthy. The facility is just what the dogs need. Central Bark Eugene is a second home for Nala. She started going to Central Park as a puppy. She trusts and loves the staff, and when she knows she is going to daycare or a sleepover, she can’t wait to go see her friends. When we have to go out of town, we can relax, knowing she is in trusted and safe hands. After a sleepover of a few days, I can schedule for her to have a bath so she is clean and smells great at pick up. 🙂 I only wish Nala was still a puppy so she could participate in Puppy Hour!

After a day at Central Bark Ryder, our pup, comes home exhausted. She gets to meet so many dogs (and people) of all sizes. When we pull up to Central Bark she runs through the door up the ramp she is so excited. 😆

My dog Lucky has been “lucky” to go to Central Bark since he was a young. He absolutely loves going and is very comfortable there. I have boarded him there numerous times and always feel he is safe and happy when I’m away.
I would highly recommend them for both a play day and boarding!

After rescuing my Charlie I knew I need some help with him socializing and a safe place to stay when I need to travel. Everyone at central bark has been soo great with Charlie and letting his personality and zoomies out! It’s so convenient to have grooming available when he is there!

There is absolutely a reason why this place has five stars and let me tell you I will never take my dog to another place. We found ourselves in a very distressing situation and these lovely humans who work for this incredible doggy daycare took in our puppy and loved her as much as we do. We couldn’t be more thankful for the AMAZING staff who stepped in during one of our darkest hours and helped lighten the load on a very heavy situation. Forever grateful is an understatement. If you want your pup treated like family, this IS the place HAND DOWN!

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

How Does the Staff Manage Dogs With Different Energy Levels or Personalities in the Playgroups?

Our dog socialization day care is built on a unique system of “flexible playgroups” to ensure a safe and positive social environment for every dog. We carefully match your dog with friends based on their age, personality, size, and play style, creating a balanced and stress-free environment. This is especially beneficial for day care for dogs with anxiety or shy puppies, as it provides a low-pressure way for them to build confidence and have a great time.

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.

What is dog grooming?

Dog grooming helps keep your dog clean, healthy, and comfortable. It can include anything from a simple brush-out or bath to a full spa day, complete with a grooming session and nail care.

All dogs are unique. Just like humans, your dog deserves personalized grooming for their size, breed, coat type, and condition. Please ask an associate for details.

Make a reservation for your dog’s grooming session.
