Our primary focus is on enhancing your dog’s overall quality of life through canine enrichment. You can trust that your dog is having a fantastic day with their furry friends, giving you peace of mind.
At Enrichment Dog Day Care, we specialize in providing top-notch service, and nobody does it quite like us.
A Healthy Balanced Day
Enrichment Dog Day Care is dedicated to providing a healthy balance of play, exercise, socialization, learning, rest, and tender loving care. Our team customizes each day to your dog’s specific needs and preferences to nurture their bodies, minds, and senses, resulting in a healthy, happy, calm, and well-rounded companion at home.
- Play, Exercise, and Socialization: Exercise helps dogs stay fit, tones muscles, uplifts mood, and channels physical and mental energy. Positive experiences with new humans, dogs, and environments help create happy and well-socialized dogs. We offer playgroups for all sizes, indoors and outdoors, tailored to your dog’s age, personality, and comfort.
- Rest: Rest, relaxation, and recharging are crucial for a dog’s physical, mental, and emotional well-being after playing and socializing. Our daily schedule aims to maintain a healthy balance of rest, play, and learning while preventing overstimulation.
- Learning: Dogs learn from humans and other dogs, and our trained staff use positive training techniques to promote safe play and help your dog practice healthy social behaviors while at day care. Dogs also teach each other appropriate social behavior.
- Love: Your dog will become a part of our family and receive all the love and attention they need while you’re away. We create a bond with your dog to help them feel comfortable and confident. With regular attendance, we learn your dog’s personality, needs, and preferences, allowing us to recognize any moods, behavioral changes, or health issues that might otherwise go unnoticed.
Commitment to Safety
Ensuring the safety and well-being of our guests is our topmost priority. As fellow dog parents, we understand the importance of treating every dog as a member of our own family. Therefore, we are dedicated to providing a secure and healthy atmosphere for all who visit our facility.
Central Bark® Enrichment Dog Day Care Features:
Flexible Group Play
Flexible playgroups allow us to match your dog with the social atmosphere and play schedule they can enjoy and benefit from most. This helps give them a healthy balance of play, rest, and learning and creates a safer social environment with a better quality of play. And our lower dog-to-staff ratios offer more individual attention, education, and love.
Group Play Skills
Interactive group activities and positive reinforcement help dogs practice important skills like name recall, and behaviors like group sit and calmly going in and out of doors and gates. These activities are fun and rewarding for your dog and help improve behavior and impulse control, prevent overstimulation, and create a safer social environment.
Rest Period Enrichment
Your dog gets to relax and recharge in their own private space with calming interactive toys and healthy food pairings tailored to their preferences and diet. It promotes physical and mental relaxation which can help them achieve a healthy balance of play, learning, and rest. It can also help them become more comfortable in crates by building positive associations.
One-on-One Enrichment
Personalized One-on-One Enrichment sessions give your dog the extra attention they love and the freedom to use their senses and safely explore their instincts through interactive toys, puzzles, and games. It’s fun and rewarding and exercise their bodies and minds and engage their senses. Add complexity with fitness and agility equipment.

We are happy to accommodate your dog’s feeding schedule as part of their “Rest Period Enrichments.” Simply bring their food in pre-portioned containers with clear instructions. Our trained staff will ensure your dog receives their meal in a private, quiet space. We are also experienced in handling a variety of specific needs, including day care for dogs with allergies and medication administration, though additional fees may apply.
At Central Bark®, our goal is to provide a balanced day of play, learning, rest, and love. Learning and mental exercise can happen in various ways, including training activities, brain games, scent work, and more. Our playgroups offer several hours of active playtime paired with learning opportunities during Group Play Skills. This way, dogs have plenty of time to socialize and get their energy out, while also exercising their minds through learning.
During one of your dog’s rest periods throughout the day, they are offered a rest period enrichment activity to stimulate their mind while encouraging healthy rest. These licking and chewing activities involve food rewards, such as frozen peanut butter KONG®. These activities engage their minds while helping foster quality rest.
Did you know? Scientific studies have shown that licking and chewing behaviors (especially those that involve food rewards!) are self-soothing, decrease heart and respiratory rates, and even release dopamine in a dog’s brain.
Training Tutor sessions stimulate the dog’s minds and bodies and help them learn important skills, behaviors, and tricks.
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.
Did you know? 15 minutes of mental activity is equal to 30 minutes of physical exercise!
