Dog Day Care. Reimagined.
Central Bark Enrichment Dog Day Care takes dog day care to a whole new level. We combine our knowledge with the latest research on dog behavior and positive training methods. This means your dog has a day full of fun and feels great. To suit your dog’s needs, they will receive playtime, mental and physical exercise, socializing, training, rest, and lots of love. Our goal is to make them healthy, happy, and well-rounded.

Flexible Playgroups
Small and large playgroup options allow us to match better your dog’s personality, needs, and preferences with the social atmosphere and amount of play they can enjoy and benefit from most.

Group Play Skills
Group Play Skills are a fun and rewarding way for dogs to practice important skills like name recall, and behaviors like group sit and calmly going in and out of doors and gates.

Rest Period Enrichment
Rest Period Enrichment sessions help dogs achieve a healthy balance. They can relax and recharge in their own private space with calming enrichment toys and healthy foods tailored to their preferences and diet.

Enrichment Sessions
Personalized One-on-One Enrichment sessions give the extra attention dogs love and the freedom to use their senses and safely explore their instincts through interactive toys, puzzles, and games.
