We have taken our dogs to Central Bark for over 5 years. It is their second home and Tristen, Mary, Andrew, Amber, Miguel & Co their second family. The facilities are modern and clean. Grooming services are wonderful! And they always find a way to work dogs in when we have an emergency. The dogs practically pull me through the doors, they are so happy to be there. Then they come back home and sleep like champs, tuckered out from playing all day. Plus, they post the cutest pictures on Instagram so I can see their “day at dog school”.

I have been bringing my dogs to central bark for close to a decade! (Some aged out and are now 15 and napping on my couch all day lol) I am a rescue dog owner and have had many timid or sensitive pups, and the staff have ALWAYS been extremely diligent in making sure they were well taken care of and appropriately paired into the right play groups. I have always gotten calls or texts if they want to clarify anything regarding diet and scheduling, and complete transparency with how my dogs behave when there. I feel as though they are proactive in preventing overstimulation and give proper rest and breaks in the Florida heat, and my George always comes home non stressed and happy and (most importantly) tired. Definitely recommend and have had nothing but positive experiences going here!

From the moment you park, you can feel Central Bark Fort Lauderdale’s love for dog! The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and caring. Central Bark staff send photos and videos of my dog playing throughout the day. When my dog fell off lol, they checked up on the both of us. I completely trust that they love and care for my dog the way I would. Tristen, Amber, Thomas and the whole team are amazing! I’m glad we switched to Central Bark.

The entire staff at CB is amazing. They are kind and caring and patient and just really really nice people. I have no hesitation leaving my dogs there for daycare, overnights – or grooming with Miguel (who is just the absolute best!). Highly recommend

What is dog boarding?

Dog boarding gives your dog a safe and comfortable place to spend the night when they can’t be home overnight. It can last for just one night or for a week or more at a time.

At Central Bark®, we offer Sleepovers to dogs enrolled in our Enrichment Day Care Program. Sleepovers at Central Bark® provide your dog a calm, relaxing sleepover in a place they can feel comfortable and loved. Because they’re in a familiar place, they can feel less stressed about being away from home (and so will you). A full day of Doggy Day Care is included with your sleepover stay.

Our Stay-n-Play program (available at participating locations) 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. 

Learn more about sleepovers at Central Bark.

Is there a schedule of activities and safety rules?

Yes. Our day is broken up into areas of play, rest, feeding and more. And we always keep a watchful eye on canine good manners.

What is the best dog shampoo?

Choosing the right dog shampoo can give your dog a shiny coat, less itching, and irritation, for a happy, clean-smelling dog. The best option for your dog will depend on its skin type and breed. 

Every item in our Central Bark® Market is specially selected to enhance your dog’s physical health for maximum happiness and comfort. We can help you choose from our selection of high-quality dog shampoo food to develop and maintain healthy skin and coat.
