My little dog loves her time at Central Bark. She’s excited to arrive and is exhausted afterwards.

My dog loves coming here once a week for daycare. It’s great opportunity for socialization. The staff are so friendly, and are responsive to texts.

We love Central Bark for daycare and boarding! We started taking our puppy to their free puppy socialization classes and began taking him to daycare as he grew older. He never really grew more confident with other dogs but he was always excited to get to Central Bark because he loved the staff so much. The staff always recognized him and it was clear that they loved him. I also loved all the little paw print crafts. We were so sad to move away and have not found a daycare that compares to Central Bark!

Sookie absolutely loves going to daycare! She gets so excited when she realizes where we’re headed, which tells me everything I need to know. The staff are always kind, welcoming, and take such great care of her. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing she’s somewhere she feels happy, safe, and loved. I’m so grateful to have a place I trust with my girl and would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a great daycare for their dog!

Ettie is amazing! I appreciate the care she provides for my excitable and sensitive golden retriever! Not often do dogs who don’t like getting groomed get excited to see their groomer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose doggy day care for your dog?

There’s no bond like the one between our furry best friends and us. We love our dogs and want to give them the best life possible. But it can be challenging to fulfill all their needs to stay healthy and happy for a lifetime. Doggy day care gives pups a place to play and learn in a safe environment, with the socialization, mental stimulation, and physical exercise their minds and bodies need to stay healthy for a lifetime.

Dogs get to socialize. Dogs are social creatures. Positive experiences with new humans, new dogs, and new environments are essential to a well-rounded pup.
Dogs learn social skills. Dogs learn from other dogs – they’re always teaching each other what is (and isn’t) appropriate social behavior. Doggy day care staff can also help support safe play and practice healthy social behaviors.
Dogs get more exercise. Exercise helps your dog maintain a healthy weight and muscle tone while improving their mood and providing a healthy outlet for their physical and mental energy, meaning they can be more relaxed at home.
Dogs get human attention. Your dog will get the care and love they need while you’re at work or school.
Parents get a break. Doggy day care can give you a day off from responsibilities, while your dog gets what they need to be a healthier, more well-adjusted pet.

What is Stay-n-Play?

Our Stay-n-Play program offers boarding for dogs that have not enrolled in our day care program. Each overnight guest gets a restful night’s sleep, followed by a day of play, exercise, and plenty of TLC from our staff. Stay-n-Play guests sleep and play in their own designated areas.
