Beats sitting home alone! Bring them occasionally or every day! Click HERE to view a video clip of some action you will see on our LIVE CAMS!
Benefits of the Bark Station Daycare Program What sets our daycare apart from most others is our Pack Leaders & their expertise in animal behavior. While we totally let "Dogs be Dogs", our Pack Leaders are trained to maintain manners in the room & use consistent positive training commands. Our current clients that consistently bring their dogs to Bark Station daycare 3-5 days per week can see the improvements in their dogs manners when they use similar commands at home. At Bark Station we always correct the behaviors when we recognize them of "no jump on humans", "potty outside", "stay & sit", "mounting", "no chew" & many many more. Dogs will also learn corrections & positive behavior from a well balanced dog pack. One of the best benefits is relinquishing your dogs fear of people & other pups with proper introductions & positive reinforcement with human interaction. Our "PUPPYGARDEN" daycare program is perfect for puppies starting at 3 months old if you bring them consistently 4-6 days per week. Trust us, our program will make the pains of puppy-hood go much smoother! Even though we do not sell this service as part of our daycare package rate, dogs will naturally learn by positive reinforcement & consistency.

Also if you plan on future boarding for your pup, daycare makes it an easy transition because they already are familiar with our staff & their canine companions during the day!
Qualifications Not all dogs make it in to our daycare program. Dogs that exhibit signs of aggressiveness will not be eligible. To qualify your dog for our daycare program, a PROFESSIONALLY PERFORMED temperament test will be held with our Head Pack Leader & his personal trained pack of dogs on the first day of daycare. We want to be sure we are accepting a dog that can safely play & socialize with other dogs. Our Head Pack Leader will meet with you & explain the process.. Please fill out our application form, submit all vet records & schedule your first day of daycare to have your dog meet our Head Pack Leader. If you dog does not qualify for group play, we have a great daycare option for them. See the day boarding option below. Also, there are some behavior recommendations our Head Pack Leader will disclose to you so you can obtain proper training for your dog. If we see an improvement along with their off site training, we will always re-evaluate group play.
FUNTIME Day Boarding (Playtime away from group dogs during the day. Pick up & drop off same day) For dogs that do not pass a temperament test, special needs dogs or dogs that are not social or too small, we offer a play day boarding option for the same price. We have our own play area just for day boarders to rotate out on their own & play! Plenty of indoor & outdoor roaming space just for them! They get taken to that area several times during the day for play as well as one long play session in the big dog room while regular daycare dogs are napping for lunch. They also spend lots of time in the managers office couch when not playing! We promise lots of interaction & fun for them individually. Please note there is no webcam access for Day Boarding.
How often should I bring my dog? Daycare does not have to be every day. You can come anytime as long as you call ahead that morning to make sure we have availability. To reap the true benefits of doggy daycare, we recommend coming at least 2-4 days per week. Daycare is open 6 days per week by reservation if you just want to drop your pup off here & there to get them some playtime & exercise. If you have last minute plans for the day, call us at 7am in the morning to make sure we have room for your pup the same day!
