Our beloved furry friends occupy a unique corner within our hearts. Recognizing the significance of ensuring their utmost well-being, offering them a fulfilling life is paramount. Nonetheless, fulfilling all their requirements can pose a challenge. This is precisely where Central Bark emerges as a solution.

Our mission is to provide love, care, and holistic growth for your beloved canine. With Central Bark Sussex, your dog enjoys secure, fun-filled days with companions, giving you peace of mind.

Our philosophy, known as “Whole Dog Care“, is centered on fostering and elevating your dog’s complete vitality and welfare throughout its lifetime. At the core of our philosophy resides our Enrichment Doggy Day Care initiative.

However, our range of services extends far beyond this – encompassing dog boarding, bathing, grooming, a supply marketplace, training, and beyond. Our objective is to facilitate the shared pursuit of an enriched existence for both you and your canine companion.

We deeply understand that dogs represent cherished family members, not just mere companions. As fellow dog caregivers, we treat your dog like family.
