Frequently Asked Questions about Dog Boarding

What is dog boarding?

Dog boarding gives your dog a safe, comfortable place to stay overnight when they cannot be at home. Central Bark boarding options may include Sleepovers for dogs enrolled in Enrichment Day Care and Stay-n-Play for dogs that are not enrolled in the day care program. Availability and eligibility vary by location, so your local Central Bark can help you choose the appropriate option.

Can a puppy be boarded?

Yes. Puppies may be able to use Central Bark boarding services once they meet the age, health, vaccination, and enrollment requirements for the boarding option offered by their local Central Bark. Sleepover and Stay-n-Play eligibility can differ, so contact your local Central Bark before booking your puppy’s stay.

How far in advance should I book dog boarding?

Booking as early as possible is recommended, especially for holidays, school breaks, weekends, and other busy travel periods. Availability varies by Central Bark location and by the type of boarding experience your dog needs. If you know your travel dates, contact your local Central Bark early so the team can confirm availability and any enrollment or pre-stay requirements.

Is boarding stressful for dogs?

A new or unfamiliar overnight environment can be stressful for some dogs. Central Bark offers boarding experiences designed to help dogs feel comfortable and cared for while their families are away. Depending on your dog’s enrollment status and local availability, your Central Bark team can help determine whether a Sleepover or Stay-n-Play experience is the appropriate option.
