Welcome to Central Bark Mequon – Dog Day Care Services

Our beloved companions with four legs hold a special and cherished place in our hearts. It is our unwavering goal to provide them with a life filled with utmost care and affection. However, fulfilling all their needs can sometimes feel like a daunting endeavor. That’s why families who prioritize their pups’ happiness and well-being trust Central Bark Mequon.

Situated in Mequon, our facility serves as a haven for dogs, where they can frolic with their furry friends and revel in their day. We offer a secure and nurturing environment, granting you the tranquility of knowing your dog is in capable hands.

Embracing a holistic approach to canine care, we refer to it as the “Whole Dog Care” philosophy. Our primary objective is to promote and enhance your dog’s overall health and happiness throughout their entire life. At the heart of this approach lies our Enrichment Dog Day Care program. Furthermore, we extend our services to encompass boarding, grooming, training, market provisions, and bathing, all designed to ensure that you and your dog experience the best life possible.

Recognizing that dogs are not mere pets but integral members of your family, we take immense pleasure in treating each dog with the same love and attention that we would bestow upon our very own pets. As fellow dog parents, we understand the deep bond and strive to provide exceptional care accordingly.
