What Reviews Say

217 reviews analyzed

Bark City is highly regarded for its passionate staff and engaging environment, with numerous clients noting their dogs are excited to arrive and return home exhausted. The facility excels in communication through daily photo updates and creative 'report cards' that provide peace of mind to owners. While the vast majority of experiences are glowing, a small number of serious health and communication concerns have been raised regarding boarding stays.
