There’s a special connection we form with our furry companions, our beloved dogs. We cherish them and strive to provide them with the utmost care and happiness. However, meeting all their needs can pose a challenge. This is where families turn to Central Bark, a trusted haven where dogs receive the affection necessary for their well-being.
At Central Bark Philadelphia, you can rest assured that your dog is enjoying a wonderful day with their pals in a secure and nurturing environment.
Our holistic approach to dog care, known as Whole Dog Care, is designed to promote their overall health and happiness. At the core of this approach lies our Enrichment Dog Day Care program, complemented by services such as boarding, grooming, training, and more. Our mission is simple: to help you and your furry friend experience the best life together.
We know that dogs aren’t merely companions but integral members of the family. That’s why, as fellow dog parents, take immense pride in treating every dog under our care as if they were our own.

Central Bark Enrichment Dog Day Care takes dog day care to a whole new level! It combines our industry-leading expertise with the latest dog behavior science and positive dog training principles. Your dog can enjoy a fun and healthy day with the proper amount of play and physical exercise.
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 are a fun and rewarding way for dogs to practice important skills like name recall. They also learn behaviors like group sit and calmly going in and out of doors and gates.
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.
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.
Dog boarding gives your dog a safe and comfortable place to spend the night when they can’t be home overnight. It can last for just one night or for a week or more at a time.
At Central Bark®, we offer Sleepovers to dogs enrolled in our Enrichment Day Care Program. Sleepovers at Central Bark® provide your dog a calm, relaxing sleepover in a place they can feel comfortable and loved. Because they’re in a familiar place, they can feel less stressed about being away from home (and so will you). A full day of Doggy Day Care is included with your sleepover stay.
Our Stay-n-Play program (available at participating locations) offers boarding for dogs that have not enrolled in our day care program. Each overnight guest gets a restful night’s sleep, followed by a day of play, exercise, and plenty of TLC from our staff. Stay-n-Play guests sleep and play in their own designated areas.
We have a team of very qualified individuals here at Central Bark®, including managers who are certified in Canine First Aid and CPR.
No matter how long you’ve had your dog, it’s possible to teach them new skills and tricks.
Whether you’re crate training, leash walking, or potty training your dog, consistency is key. It’s crucial to establish a routine, practice positive reinforcement, supervise your dog (especially when potty training), and avoid punishing when mistakes happen.
Central Bark® offers everything you need to help you train your dog. We offer expert training and classes so you and your puppy can learn and bond together.
