Awesome place! Can tell they put a lot of love and effort into the business! So happy we started bringing our dog “mouse” here!
Always kind and helpful. Our dogs are excited to play there and come home happy.
Friendly staff! Good with my pride and joy Lucky, an adorable rescue dog:) Exceptional grooming by Emma who handled Lucky with tender loving care. Plan on continually returning for grooming.
The best experience, every single time. The staff is incredible and always flexible when it comes to scheduling. And we love our Melissa! Both grooming and boarding experiences have been top notch.
Great care for our dogs. The staff are always kind and helpful.
I’ve been a dog owner for over 25 years. This is the first place I’ve found that I feel that I can actually relax on vacation. Meredith and her staff consistently go above and beyond what’s expected! Best part: my pups are soooo excited each and every time we pull into the Central Bark parking lot! For me, that says it all! Highly recommend!
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I see the complete facilities where my dog will be staying?
Absolutely! We strongly encourage all prospective clients to see our facilities firsthand. We believe a tour is the best way to understand what to look for in a dog day care. You can schedule a visit to tour our complete indoor and outdoor play areas and private rest spaces. We want you to feel completely confident and comfortable with our secure environment. You can also explore our facility and get a feel for what a day at Central Bark looks like by viewing the photos and virtual tours on our website.
How long does dog training take?
The timeline for learning new behaviors and skills is as unique as every dog! Because each dog is an individual, with different learning histories, breed genetics, and preferences in reinforcers like treats and toys, there is no way to say for sure how long training will take. It’s also important to consider how much time each family has for daily training practice.
Whether you’re crate training, leash walking, or potty training your pup, consistency is key. It’s crucial to establish a routine, practice positive reinforcement, supervise your puppy (especially when potty training), and avoid punishing your puppy when mistakes happen.
Central Bark® offers everything you need to help you train your dog, with expert training and classes so you and your pup can learn and bond together.

What is Stay-n-Play?
Our Stay-n-Play program 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.
