The Barking Dog is proud to offer the very finest in boarding accommodations for your dog. We have individual, spacious, indoor-outdoor runs which are completely climate controlled to maximize the comfort of your pup during their stay with us. It is our policy to allow your dog free access to the “in” and “out” portions of their run unless inclement weather or extreme temperatures dictate otherwise. During cold weather, our runs are warmed by radiant floor heat. This method of heating is a comfortable and consistent form which is especially soothing to young puppies and older dogs with stiff joints. Our outdoor floors are also heated for the purpose of eliminating ice and snow build-up which is essential for good sanitation. During the summer season, indoor runs are air conditioned to ensure your pet’s comfort. All runs are cleaned on an ongoing basis, and disinfected daily. For the pampered pooch, we offer cozy inside pens which can be complimented with plenty of trips outside to potty. You may request a boarding reservation on our website! Daycare:
Whether your dog is restless, lonely, spends long hours at home, in need of socialization, or simply bored, our quality daycare can help! has developed great programs aimed at filling the void in dog socialization and exercise many dogs experience today.

Indoor programs are conducted in spacious, climate controlled rooms equipped with shock absorbent, non-slip flooring; perfect for active play. The dogs also have the option to participate in indoor swim time in the morning, so that they have plenty of time to dry off before pick up! Grooming:

New season, new schedule, same happy pup 🐶✨

When life gets a little busier, dogs can benefit from having somewhere they know they can go to play, explore, and make some furry friends.

Daycare gives them a chance to stay active and entertained while adding a little fun and consistency to their week.

Because a tired, happy dog makes coming home even better. 💛

A lot of grooming-related discomfort builds up gradually — not all at once 🐾

Things like matting, buildup, or overgrown nails can sneak up over time and start to affect how your dog feels day to day.

Staying consistent can make a big difference in keeping things manageable and comfortable.

If your pup is due for a refresh, this is a great time to get back on track and if you’re new to grooming with us, first-time guests receive 20% off their first appointment 💛Learn more: https://www.thebarkingdog.com/services/dog-grooming

Not every dog wants to be everyone’s best friend… and that’s perfectly okay! 🐾

For some dogs, confidence means running around, playing, and making new friends. For others, it might simply mean feeling comfortable sharing a space with other dogs without feeling stressed or overwhelmed.

Socialization isn’t about pushing your dog to do more. It’s about understanding what makes them comfortable and giving them the kind of experience that works best for their personality — whether that’s group play, one-on-one time, or simply enjoying some peaceful space. 💛

The holidays might still feel a little ways off… but they tend to come up fast 🐾

If you know you’ll need boarding later in the year, it can really help to give your dog a chance to get familiar with the environment ahead of time.

A First Stay & Play gives them that opportunity — a chance to explore, settle in, and get comfortable with the space, routine, and team supporting them.

It also gives you a better sense of how they’ll do, so there are no surprises when it’s time for a longer stay.
