Dog Boarding
for day care members
For dogs who regularly enjoy Enrichment Dog Day Care at Central Bark, sleepovers offer a seamless extension of their daily routine when your family is away overnight or on vacation. Your dog will spend the night in a familiar setting and continue participating in group day care activities with their friends during their stay. Our overnight dog boarding provides a calm and relaxing night in a comfortable place they already know and love.
Stay-n-Play
for occasional dog boarding guests
Our Stay-n-Play program offers boarding for dogs who are not currently enrolled in our day care program. Each overnight guest receives a restful night’s sleep, personalized attention, exercise, and plenty of TLC from our caring team. Stay-n-Play guests enjoy their own designated areas for sleeping and activities, ensuring a comfortable, safe, and enjoyable stay.

The staff has always been caring, and thoughtful. Paul loved his time there, and barked enthusiastically with joy each time we arrived. We had complete peace of mind when he was there, as they took care of his as well as if he was their own.
Thanks to all the staff for taking such good care of our Pauly. You all were a very important part of his life!
