Friend takes her twin puppies. They absolutely love it there
I love that they send pics of my baby. He is always in good spirits who i pick him up.
Super friendly staff, our pups love it there, recommended!
We absolutely love Central Bark for our two very energetic puppies! Daycare helps socialize them and you can tell they have had a fun day. The staff is the absolute best and are so sweet and kind!
Friendly, knowledgeable and a 1 stop shop for all your dogs needs
Central Bark is an amazing place for puppy learning and socialization! I’ve been taking my dog every week since he was 9 weeks old and the progress he has made is incredible. They have such a knowledgeable, kind, and dedicated staff so you can feel confident leaving your pups in their hands. The owner/manager Tayna is so professional and kind and always advocates what’s best for the dogs. One of the staff members, Abby, was so sweet and knowledgeable. She worked hard with my pup on learning how to share and had so much success in just one session. If you are looking for a place that will provide your dog with the same love care and attention as you, I seriously cannot recommend central bark enough!
