About Central Bark Sheboygan

Our names are Gareth and Kristine and we are the proud owners of Central Bark Sheboygan. We wanted to take a quick moment and let you know that both you and your pups will receive nothing but the best care, service, and dedication here at Central Bark Sheboygan.

Before joining the Central Bark family we worked in the luxury charter yacht industry. For more than fifteen years Gareth worked as a professional charter boat captain, while Kristine spent the last nine years as a yacht chef and first mate. In fact, nine years ago is when the two of us met. Together we have sailed around the world delivering nothing but the best service to our guests and their friends and families. As well as our dedication to great service we have always prided ourselves in the cleanliness and safety of our yachts and we continue this level of service at Central Bark Sheboygan. In 2018, we decided to settle down and start a family. Now we’re the proud parents of two beautiful children and our dog. We’ve always been dog lovers and as our family grew, we began looking for business opportunities that aligned with our sense of family and our love for dogs.

“We welcome you to join our Central Bark family.”
