Enrichment Dog Day Care
Dog Day Care. Reimagined.
There’s a special connection between you and your furry companion that’s hard to match. However, our busy human lifestyles can sometimes make it difficult to meet all our dogs’ needs. This can result in challenges at home, ranging from loneliness and boredom to weight gain, anxiety, and undesirable behaviors. That’s where our doggy day care center comes in.
At Central Bark® Oakdale, our Enrichment Dog Day Care provides a secure and caring environment for your dog. Through socialization, mental stimulation, and physical exercise, we ensure their minds and bodies stay healthy and happy for the long term.
Our dedication to canine enrichment aims to elevate your dog’s overall quality of life. Engaging activities, designed to be both fun and rewarding, encourage them to use their senses for problem-solving, learn new skills, and build confidence. You can rest assured that your dog is enjoying a fantastic day with their pals. Enrichment Dog Day Care is our expertise, and we pride ourselves on delivering an experience like no other.

A Healthy, Balanced Day
At our Oakdale Dog Day Care, we strive for a harmonious blend of play, exercise, socialization, learning, rest, and tender loving care (TLC). Each day is tailored to meet your dog’s specific needs and preferences, fostering a healthy, happy, calm, and well-rounded demeanor at home.
- Play, Exercise, and Socialization are key components. Regular exercise aids in maintaining your dog’s healthy weight and muscle tone, improving their mood, and providing a positive outlet for physical and mental energy.
- Rest is crucial for your dog’s overall well-being. Our carefully planned daily schedule focuses on preventing unhealthy overstimulation, ensuring the right balance of rest, play, and learning.
- Learning is an ongoing process. Dogs learn from humans and each other, guided by our staff to promote safe play and healthy social behaviors. Positive training techniques contribute to a positive environment at day care.
- Love is at the core of our Oakdale doggy day care family. Your dog becomes a cherished member, receiving the love and attention they need in your absence.
A Dog Day Care Committed to Safety
Ensuring the safety and well-being of our guests is our utmost priority. As fellow dog parents, we take immense pride in treating each dog with the same care and attention we give to our own furry companions. Our commitment extends to creating a secure and healthy environment for everyone who steps into 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 at our doggy day care in Oakdale 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, exercises their bodies and minds, and engages their senses. Add complexity with fitness and agility equipment.
