Bark + Boarding offers a daycare-inclusive style boarding structure which means your pup gets tons of socialization with people and other dogs all day long. We run large, custom playgroups meaning we don’t separate based on age, size, breed and instead separate dogs by play-style. The end result is one happy (+tired!) pup at the end of the day. We supply the bedding, bowls and anything your dog needs to have a comfortable stay. You bring pup’s food and any medication needed - all administered at no additional cost to you! We also offer outdoor playtime in our expansive outdoor run. We offer two styles of boarding (crate or Zone boarding) to accommodate your dog’s needs. Our goal is to ensure that each dog has a stress-free and fun experience while staying with us.
CHECK OUT OUR LIST OF APPROVED BOARDING ITEMS
“I have been taking my two dogs here for years. My smaller dog isn’t the easiest boarder and she is on two different meds. I have never felt nervous about leaving her here. I know they will take great care of her.”
BOARDING OPTIONS
We offer three types of boarding options:
METAL CRATES: These are standard, wire crates and can fit everyone from the smallest of chihuahuas to the biggest Great Danes.
STEEL CRATES: For the most skillful of escape artists, these crates are similar to our metal crates but the bars are made of thick steel bars that make it impossible to sneak out. Space is limited so are first come, first served.
ZONES: For dogs with crate anxiety, health issues, barrier reactivity or 2 dog families we offer Zone boarding. Zones are 3’x5’ spaces. Space is limited so are first come, first served.
HOW DO I GET STARTED?
If your dog has never been to our daycare, a daycare/boarding evaluation (lasting 4 hours minimum) is required to begin service. Evaluations are $25 and are done by appointment and can be scheduled below.
THE DETAILS
Boarding Drop-Off: Dogs are required to be dropped off before 4pm. We want to make sure your dog gets plenty of time to burn off energy so they are hungry at dinner, tired at bedtime and minimize the potential of being stressed on the first night.
Boarding Pick-Up: Pick-up is anytime during our open hours. If you pick up your dog within the first hour of opening, there is no charge for daycare that day. After the first hour of business, you will only be charged for a half day of daycare, no matter how long your dog is in daycare for the day. We realize you do not have control of flight delays, traffic, etc!
ENRICHMENT
Want pup to have some added Enrichment during their stay with us? Add on a Play + Train session, Stuffed Kong, or Bully Stick break to give pup a break from the pack throughout the day!* Kongs are stuffed with all natural peanut butter and plain yogurt for a special treat that’s good for all pups - even the ones with sensitive tummies and food allergies! We also offer 6” odor-free Barkworthies bully sticks that are made in the U.S. so pup can get their chew on and you can feel good about giving them a treat that’s not only tasty but good for them too!
